Divorce Consultation
I had a consultation with Livia while I was figuring out if I needed an attorney. She was compassionate and reassuring as we talked about my situation. She set expectations as I laid out things I wanted and was clear on what a possible outcome would be like. I really appreciated her candor and humor....

Exactly What I Needed
I didn’t know where to start when I needed to file for divorce. Livia explained everything to me, guided me, but respected when I wanted to make my own decisions. She took a vested interest in what was best for me and my children.

Too many errors and inexperienced
This attorney and their law firm caused too many mistakes in my family case, incorrect motions and petitions filed, made errors and mistakes in those filed motions and petitions.

Replied last June 1, 2020I unfortunately do not know who you are, and am unaware of a case where my team made such errors. As client satisfaction and loyalty are very important to me, I would have already reached out to you to address any concerns if I knew who you were. This is unfortunately the third time this same or similar "anonymous" review has been posted on my profile in the past year. If you are actually a former client, please afford me the opportunity to address your concerns by calling me at 561-515-5655 as soon as possible. I look forward to hopefully speaking with you. Thank you.
