Divorce/Child Custody/Child Support

Monica Holden has been my attorney since January 2011. My divorce was very involved and about a year, but due to my ex, we have been in and out of court over many issues (he filed an appeal, failed to pay marital debt, failed to pay child support, adjusting child support, etc). She is very prompt and... knowledgeable on everything she does. I am never out of the loop with Monica. She is prompt in replying to any questions you have as well as keeping you informed of your case and does great in and out of the court room. I highly recommend her. Monica will be very honest with you. She doesn't give false hope and will provide you with all the details you need in making your next decision while informing you the best method to go about it.

Very professional and knowledgeable

Case involved a child custody dispute. Monica set a strategy for the case and followed it for the duration of the case. She kept me informed whenever necessary. She is knowledgeable in law and courtroom proceedings, effective at researching case law, and demonstrates confidence and skill in the cour...troom. She successfully achieved our objectives and won the case.

Exceptional attorney

Monica assisted me in a very difficult family case. Monica accomplished what multiple attorneys with over 40 years of family law experience said could not be done! Her research and argument support made a world of difference. Eternally grateful for her service, I would definitely recommend her servic...es to others although I hope I never need her again.
