My Hero

I hired Holly to help me with custody issues with someone who was very hard to deal with and she did a fantastic job. She is open and honest and commits to you and your children when she represents you. I would only recommend Holly Verde when it comes to a legal matter and I will only go to Holly Ver...de for any potential needs. She's a real life Hero.

Excellent Attorney!

Holly Verde is an excellent attorney! She immediately took action on some very time sensitive information needed for my divorce case. She was very professional, compassionate, knows the court system well and I would highly recommend her to everyone!

Life saver

Hello, I’m Kevin T. I hired Holly Verde for a very difficult divorce and custody battle. Before retaining Holly, I made clear that she’d be representing not only me, but my daughter. I expected professional, expert legal advice that I wouldn’t be afraid to answer questions about with my daughter lat...er in life. Holly Verde helped stabilize a situation that was deteriorating quickly. My expectations were different than most, I am and was proud to have Holly and her team on my side. Specifically Susan, whom I have tremendous respect for. I’ve recommended Holly many times over, she’ll always be my lawyer as long as she’s practicing.

  • 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.
