Divorce Success!!!

I engaged Mr Galen Novotny’s professional services when I decided the next step in my life path did not include my now ex-husband. I knew I was facing a narcissistic personality that was determined to make divorce as difficult as he could... Galen understood and handled every obstacle my ex-husband... and his “men’s-rights” attorney threw at me easily. Galen’s Paralegal, Ms Singleton is the other half of the equation that made my divorce smooth... her attention to detail and knowledge ensured that my documents were complete and accurate and represented my wishes completely. Her positive attitude could brighten even the darkest of situations. Galen and his paralegal are wonderful to work with, caring, supportive, knowledgeable, trustworthy and responsive to all concerns and questions. I highly recommend Galen to anyone facing such a difficult time and course of action in their life. Thank you!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
