Posted by anonymous | August 14, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Alimony

Anna Hart was fantastic!

I went through a divorce about 6 years ago and have been paying "perpetual" alimony at a significant amount each month. I contacted Anna Hart to help me to get the alimony reduced. My past experiences with attorney's had not been good but my experience with Anna Hart was a pleasant surprise. Anna ...was professional, diligent, intelligent in the law and most surprisingly she was compassionate. Anna went to work immediately gathering all necessary documentation and submitted all relevant data and requests to the courts. Anna was able to connect us with an excellent mediator which even though it did not get resolved specifically with that session, it proved to be valuable in the ultimate outcome. The final outcome was through tenacious negotiation by Anna and the opposing attorney, the alimony was ultimately eliminated after a minimal payout. And this was all done in record time, minimizing cost. I was more than satisfied with both Anna's representation and the final outcome. I would highly recommend Anna Hart to anyone dealing with anything within her areas of practice.

Excellent experience

I was referred to Anna Hart by a friend that had a good experience with her services. My case involved history of an earlier settlement that I was seeking to amend. Anna guided me through the process and obviously knew the actions that needed to be taken on my behalf within the court system. The o...utcome was, I believe, fair to all involved, and completed in timely manner. Nothing but respect and positive feedback from me.

Anna Hart, outstanding divorce attorney

Attorney Hart was extremely thorough in her work and research on my case. Not only was she professional, she also really does care about her clients and their outcome.

Posted by Samantha | January 04, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Family

Calm and confident

I needed a lawyer to calmly explain the legal process and give me all of the options. She did that and more. She went above and beyond expectations. She was so knowledgeable and had several plans of possible action while guiding me to make my own choices. She is honest and quick to respond. She worke...d hard for me and my children. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs guidance and a reputable lawyer. During legal stituations you can be overwhelmed by what needs to be done, but I felt very confident once Anna took my case. And the ending was better than I ever expected due to her hard work. She was and is an answer to prayer for me.

Compassionate--but Cut Throat! A Lawyer you want on YOUR side!!

Anna Hart is the epitome of the lawyer you want working for you and with you. She is smart, diligent, and on top of her "game". When she entered the courtroom, people immediately took note that she was in control of the courtroom and more prepared than anyone else there. The ADA made sure to point ou...t to the other attorneys present, "Take note, 15 minutes into the morning and she already has everything taken care of and is almost completely finished with her case for her client....this is Anna Hart! You could learn from her." To say that we were proud to have her as our attorney would be an understatement. Anna fought for our family and made sure that the best possible deal could be arranged. It was such a relief to know we were in great hands! Punctuality- 5 stars. Professionalism-5 stars. Knowledgeable but not condescending...5 stars. Communication...5 stars +. (From the initial meeting, Anna was very proactive and reassuring. She communicated with us frequently checking in by way of phone calls, texts, and emails. She even texted the night before the hearing to make sure we were ok and didn't have any other questions. She also followed up the next week to make sure everything was still going well and that we didn't need anything else at that time. She was and is very easy to contact and quickly responds.) I would highly recommend Anna Hart as a lawyer to anyone! Words do not do justice to how wonderful she is!
