Excellent

Great Attorney, helped (and is currently helping me) with an extremely difficult divorce, no matter how contentious the other side gets, Lynda keeps me informed and keeps things in perspective so we are focused on the end goal and result, not the immediate unprofessionalism of the other side.

Posted by Tony | November 13, 2014 | Child Support

OUTSTANDING, experienced, informative…More than just a lawyer.

Lynda was amazing. We have been fighting with this back and forth for years. My husband’s ex was very combative with us since the beginning. We had a lot of concerns about modifying child support. She was just able to get our concerns answered, but also got everything settled out of court withou...t us even having to be in the same room as his ex, taking the hostility out of the entire process. This is actually the second time we’ve enlisted Lynda’s help. What I really LOVED about Lynda was that she never sugar coated anything. She told us exactly how it was; she never told us she could do something that she could NOT do. Very straight forward and I love that. Nowadays it’s hard to find someone that will tell you how it is and not just tell you what you WANT to hear. She didn’t just treat you like another client, we felt that she was really involved during the process, keeping us up to date and always answering our questions and calls. She was also very reasonable in her pricing; we never felt swindled at any time. You can tell she is in it for the process not the money. She is the only lawyer I would ever use. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.
