Very Fair

Vera was very detailed and kind in her explaining the process of divorce. I truly thought I was going to go through with it, and after 3.5 months of separation, my husband and I reconciled and we are better than ever. Since I changed my mind about proceeding with the divorce, she agreed to refund m...onies left over from my retainer (which is NOT customary). Her staff is great and very caring. I would strongly recommend her!

Great Advice

Vera has spent a great deal of time coaching me and giving great advice. While most attorneys want to “nickel and dime” for every email, Vera doesn’t. She also understands how tough my case is with a very vindictive and malicious mother. It’s nice when an attorney actually recognizes just how much ...damage and pain someone deliberately goes out of their way to cause.

Wonderful Attorney

After spending two years with another attorney that left me bewildered, unsatisfied, and broke, I found Vera. She literally saved me . I was able to come to an agreeable settlement which is still ongoing, however it only took approximately 6 weeks to get there. I would recommend her to anyone seeki...ng a divorce.

Conscientious

I hired Vera after my first lawyer removed himself from my case. My divorce was very complicated and complex. After reading Vera's reviews, I called for a consultation and hired her. Vera and her staff worked very hard for me to get a resolution with a very difficult and complicated person. Her advis...e was spot on and helped me get the case settled before having to go into a very costly trial. She was compassionate and worked tirelessly to get the results I desired.

courteous, professional and ethical

From consultation until divorce trial's end Mrs. Bergermann' s efforts and attention to detail were absolute. Her conduct was always professional, respectful and compassionate. Ethically, she was faultless in her advisement. Her experience and positive attitude always left me with encouragement. ...Her staff, especially Chris, were always available and knowledgeable in her absence. I also felt attorney fees were very reasonable for this 2 1/2 year process. The proceeding failed in expediency due to the other party's willingness to compromise.
