Great attorney!

Amazing attorney who fights for children. He’s one of the few attorneys who understands parental alienation and believes in equal parenting rights. He’s very dedicated to his cases and knowledgeable.

Honest, trustworthy, and flexible

Mr. Picard is an experienced attorney that worked hard on my child custody case. He told me what I NEEDED to hear, explained how the system worked, and answered all of my questions with complete honesty. I have recommended him several times to co-workers and friends and will continue to do so.

Excellent job!

I would highly recommend Chris Picard! He consistently demonstrated professionalism in all aspects of litigation during my divorce. From the start, I felt Mr. Picard kept my best interests in the forefront of the process. His expertise was readily apparent as he strategically and successfully nativig...ated through many different aspects of the divorce. My settlement was more than I expected! I credit Mr. Picard's tenacity and attention to detail for the outcome. I felt he consistently and effectively communicated with me. His assertiveness and responsiveness made me feel confident throughout the entire process. In addition, his helpful staff is a terrific complement to his practice.

Honest Professional

Mr Picard represented me in my divorce/custody litigation. He was up front and honest with me the entire time. He didnt always tell me what i wanted to hear, which is what I expect from a professional, but did everything to make sure that my case went smooth and was as cost effective as possible. His... rates were very reasonable and his staff is awesome too. I have since recommended him to friends who have hired him and have had the same results.

Lazy, unhelpful, & will not fight for you!

Mr. Pickard has represented my on a two occasions. When my fiance’s ex wife tried to take custody from him, Pickard suggested we not fight her in court and to go along with what the FOC suggested after a referee hearing. We later found out that he was going on vacation and did not want to have to ...cancel to try our case in front of the judge. Additionally, he has a “friendship” with the person at FOC that wrote the recommendation for the custody situation and he did not want to challenge her recommendation. Pickard charged us a $2500 retainer fee for representing us in a custody battle (we lost) and a child support evaluation (we lost)... after both were completed, he decided to tack another $555 onto our bill!
