Karen A. Myatt

I saw Karen for a consultation after I had already spent over $20,000 wasting six months in court in fort lauderdale. I went to see her for a second opinion. She did not see dollar signs. She solved a problem. Unlike 2 other "super" lawyers in town, she told me the truth: I did not qualify for a ...Florida divorce and the case should not have been brought there. She gave me the name of a appeals lawyer who was outstanding but recommended that I file in another state. Later she sent a note with the name of a contact in the other state who was willing to talk. I called the guy. He was happy with his lawyer. I hired that lawyer. Since then the case was filed (outside of DC) and settled. It took half the time I wasted in Florida. I recommend this lawyer for Florida divorces.

It cost me over $18,000 and I still wasn't divorced at 1 1/2 years of going through the process. She never had time to explain the case with me, she was off to California everytime I needed her. She couldn't make court dates and had her husband fill in who is not a family law lawyer. She did not c...ommunicate with my ex-husbands lawyer, she was very hostile to them both. This caused many problems for me. Instead of bringing spouses together to come to a resolution, she stirred the pot and made it worse. It cost me alot of money and I was headed for court. She would not pick up the phone and call the other lawyer. I do not recommend this lawyer , she will make your situation a worse night mare.

Karen Myatt and Myatt Law Center helped me through a very difficult 2 year period and eventual divorce. Karen and her staff were always there for me. At the beginning she helped me find a therapist for counseling for me and my children. She pointed me to community resources available for my special ...needs son.Later she referred me to a college resource to assist me in finding a job. I was a basket case for the year leading up to the divorce. She did not push me into filing for divorce. She listened. She urged that we try marriage counseling. When it did not work she helped me find the strength to file for divorce. I was kept up to date on my case. Karen sent me every piece of paper that came in or went out on my case. When I could not open the mail, I went in and met with her and her staff and reviewed it together. She provided resources, books and articles to read to help me through the emotional difficulty of separation and divorce. She treated my ex-husband with dignity at his deposition, but was very thorough in asking about his finances. I got a financial settlement I was very pleased with. She made sure to take good care of my children. It is not all about the money with her or her staff. They care about people.
