Christopher

Anna took over my case after my previous attorney decided he couldn't proceed effectively. She was very matter of fact and doesn't waste time. While it was a exceptionally long and difficult divorce, Anna remained focused and kept the process moving to the best of her ability, and kept me informed ...throughout the process. Anna was quick to respond whenever I had questions and was always mindful of keeping things direct and to the point, so as not to waist time. Aggressive when she needs to be and has good working relationships with opposing counsel. I would not hesitate to recommend Anna to my friends or family!

I was so worried until Anna took my case.

I had an attorney he quit on me right after I paid him . He started the paperwork, I felt that was his intention to leave I felt really bad after that. I start looking for someone to help me , and hoping it wouldn’t happen to me again. Then I found Anna Parise she is the best she calm me down and... took my cast. No problem she knows what she is doing I’ll recommend her to anybody. Thank you Anna .

Knowledgeable and Understanding

Anna helped me navigate my dissolution across an 8 month period. She is experienced, knowledgeable and thorough in providing explanations and options with real life examples. I always felt like she had my best interests in mind. She is a strong and tough female attorney who is great to have on yo...ur side. I'm happy to say we successfully completed the process and have a good coparenting agreement in place. I have referred her to friends needing similar assistance and will be using her for future legal needs.

Honest Direct and Supportive

Anna is an excellent attorney. She is very knowledgeable and was responsive to us with all of our questions. She is empathetic to how sensitive a child custody case can be but at the same time she is aggressive when she is in court. Highly recommend Anna for family law.

Best Lawyer Ever!!

First of all, I would like to say that Anna Parise was very let’s get down to it. She knew exactly what to do and say. She was all about the business at hand. My Divorce. She was very let’s cut to the chase. Do you really want to pay me for getting those few items back. She wasn’t in it for the money...- she wanted me to be free!! To start a new life. New chapter. New beginning. I thank her for that. Thank you Anna!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
