Wendy Arlene Hausmann

Ms. Wendy Hausmann is a phenomenal attorney. Her professionalism and her compassion have helped me to deal with this divorce process which has been quite unsettling, to say the least. Ms.Hausmann has continually kept me updated and has been by my side the entire time as well as looking out for my bes...t interests. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

Unfortunately I have required a family law attorney to deal with my ex-spouse filing frivolously for many years, but fortunately I found Wendy! I hired her a few years ago and never regretted my decision. She worked tirelessly for me and always kept me very informed about every aspect of my case. Sh...e was always available for every little question that I might have had. Wendy was extremely prompt both with our meetings and our court dates. I always felt extremely prepared for court, and she kept me as calm as possible and helped me navigate the sometimes scary courtroom. She used humor to try to lighten my mood. Wendy was extremely efficient and I never once felt like she was overcharging me for anything. I would whole-heartedly recommend Wendy for any family-law issues.

I was referred to Wendy by a former Family Case manager at the South Palm Beach County Courthouse. After speaking to Wendy for only a few minutes, I was convinced of her genuine interest in winning my case. We both knew it would be an uphill battle, given unwritten prejudices towards men, but she ...was confident we would win. And win we did. I'm not going to say my case was a "slam dunk" from the start, but in the final analysis, but for Wendy being in my corner, and the support of my family, I would have not prevailed. Here's a brief history of my case. Around December 2009 I decided to seek a modification of my child support obligation, in light of child care payments that were included in the amount I was paying, which were not being made. I started doing this pro-se. During our initial meeting, I discussed, in detail, the history of my case with Wendy. We went to Mediation, but settling with my ex-wife, especially in matters of child support, was as impossible as the infamous "camel through the eye of a needle" story. After the mediation, Wendy suggested we didn't limit the modification to a reduction of child support. Instead, she advised we should also petition for a modification of primary residence, a/k/a custody. In February, 2010, we filed the petition. Long story short, after 9 months of what seemed to be monthly trips to the courthouse, on February 4, 2011, the Magistrate's Report and Recommendation modifying my daughter's primary residence from my ex-wife's to mine, was approved and adopted by the Court. By that time, and again thanks to Wendy, my daughter had already been living with me for a period of 8 months. It goes without saying that Wendy was an intricate part of that victory, not only by being a strong, knowledgeable, and sharp lawyer, but also by being a true advocate of justice and by making herself available, even on weekends, to fax key orders to law enforcement, so that justice for my daughter would prevail at all times. I'm not going to take much credit for this victory because I just persevered enough to win in Court and that was just the ticket to Victory. The credit, by and large, belongs to my wife and my step-children, who despite of not being blood relatives to my daughter, have truly become her family and a rock upon which my daughter has found strength and salvation. Of course, it's axiomatic that credit is also due, and in no small part, to my lawyer, Wendy Hausmann, for seeing the path to victory through the proverbial "fog of war."

She's petite, smiles and looks like your favorite elementary school teacher. Don't be fooled. Ms. Hausmann is a powerhouse -- knowledgeable, diligent, straightforward and always prepared. My situation hit all four of her areas of expertise: divorce, timesharing, child support and domestic viol...ence. I walked in scared out of my mind, and by the end of the first hearing, I was taking my first deep breath in months. Documents are filed on time. Motions are complete and clearly worded. I am kept up-to-date, and my phone calls are always returned within a (very) reasonable amount of time. In spite of the fact that my former husband does not obey Court Orders (whether they be Protective, Child Support or otherwise,) Ms. Hausmann cuts through the chaos to help build a clear court record. She has a good memory. That way, there is forward progress, even when former husband does not tell the truth under oath, or we have a new Judge or Magistrate. Did I mention that she's organized, winsome and professional in the Courtroom? You can see that the Judges, Magistrates and other Court personnel respect her. I feel that Attorney Hausmann allows a Judge to hear the information he or she needs to make a decision that is in the best interest of my child. I highly recommend Wendy Hausmann as a Family Law Practitioner.
