Sonya is the best!

I hired Sonya as my divorce attorney after she came highly recommended by a business associate. Sonya was very upfront during our consultation regarding her fees and expected timeline. She asked me to trust her, and I did. Sonya was very supportive throughout my very painful and difficult divorce, an...d she did an excellent job representing me in court. She went to bat for me, protected me, and got me everything I asked for in my divorce settlement. I will 100% hire Sonya again for any legal needs.

THE BEST LAWYER

The dictionary doesn’t have enough words for me to begin to explain my experience with Mrs. Colon. When I first met her, she was straight forward, honest, and gave me her full attention. I’m father and I was fighting an ugly custody dispute. I have always been in my child’s life since birth and I was...n’t going to be some part time dad. Mrs. Colon was passionate and dedicated in making sure I had my parental rights enforced and she made sure I had timesharing with my child. Mrs. Colon made every effort to get things done quickly and she kept her word every time. I had a lawyer prior to meeting Mrs. Colon and I wish the money I waisted on that lawyer I invested in it Mrs. Colon. I am so thankful I met Mrs. Colon. I will refer any friends or family as I believe she truly came into my life when I needed her the most. Thank you Sonya!!!! I’m truly inspired by your hard work and dedication. Gob Bless.

Outstanding Lawyer

I previously had three lawyers working on my case and I was not getting anywhere, deciding to have Sonya Colon take over my case was the best thing that could've happened to me. As soon as we started working together I saw change and progress in my case. She is very knowledgeable and dedicated to you...r case. Out of all the lawyers that worked on my case she was the best and I'm so thankful to her and her staff for helping me win my case and custody of my son.
