The best!

Penny has been absolutely amazing dealing with my complicated custody case. Not only was she patient with our constant need to return to court but she was always on top of every last detail, always prepared to fight for my child and had contingency plans for our contingency plans. She was well resear...ched and made sure to double/triple check our options as we continued the process. Custody cases and messy and emotional and just plan hard and Penny was always patient and kind in keeping me calm and focused while standing firm in the court room. She has always and still does put our safety first and even though we have moved out of state, she still helps to guide me if and when I have questions and concerns finding representation moving forward. I feel fully supported and not being able to have her as my lawyer is the only downside to our move. Penny truly cares about her clients and I couldn’t be more thankful for what she has done to protect my kiddo and myself!

Excellent lawyer and team!

Penny represented me during the most difficult time of my life. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. She stood confidently by my side through the entire process of my divorce. Penny always answered my phone calls and when she was unavailable her team was right on it. T...hey listened to me endlessly and answered all of my questions. Penny fought for me and I feel like I would not have been able to get through that time of my life had it not been for her. I would hands down, recommend Penny and her team at GKP to anyone that is going through the unfortunate process of divorce. Penny will represent you with the utmost professionalism while still giving you the feeling like you have known her for years!!

You got this ...

Penny was recommended to me by two friends and another lawyer when I needed new representation in 2016 for custody issues. Since then I have also referred at least four friends that have used her for their custody cases. My situation has been complicated and not only Penny, but the whole firm has tak...en care of my case over time. It's tough to find a lawyer with the amount of empathy she has for her clients. She really cares about you and your children. I've been so fortunate to have her in my corner for some of the hardest battles of my life. If you're not sure ... call her for a consultation. You'll see what I mean when you talk to her.

Fantastic Family Legal Representation By Penny Parker

I was referred to Penny Parker by a friend. I had been working thru delicate co-parenting issues post divorce and I needed some help to improve the current situation. Penny was absolutely wonderful to work with. She truly cared about me and my son. She took the fear away of making difficult decis...ions and I was able to focus on my legal rights as a parent. I was very pleased of my outcome which in turn I believe has made me a better parent. Penny listens, cares and advises based on what is right for each client. I have referred family and friends to Penny and her firm. I also want to mention her support team is amazing as well!

Highly Recommend

Ms. Parker is my second attorney in what has turned out to be a very painful high conflict custody matter spanning almost three years. She will fight for you and is a great attorney. The differences between her and my first lawyer is like night and day. I would recommend her to anyone, especially th...ose who need legal services for a lengthy amount of time(i.e until kid(s) are 18!) She is very intelligent and caring. She also returns your calls promptly. I'm not angry about paying legal bills anymore, because she is worth it and her work is exceptional.
