Helena L Trachtenberg

I have had a couple of divorce attorneys over the past decade from my initial divorce to dealing with complex custody and financial issues that arose after. I do not need to look any further if I should require assistance again. Helena was so professional, responsive and thorough. I really felt li...ke she had an in-depth understanding of the many complex issues I was facing. Additionally she is very compassionate and helped me maintain perspective in emotionally charged situations.

I’ve retained Helena for several ongoing joint custody issues. She always responds quickly, is very thorough in understanding the past issues & court orders and always does her best to come to fair & quick resolution. In my experience, she goes above & beyond most lawyers to listen and understand the... impacts disagreements are having on all parties (including my child, ex and myself) before making her recommendations. Overall, I highly recommend Helena for joint parental conflict matters.

Helena represented me in a domestic relations case as well as a civil case involving multiple court appearances. The things that stood out to me about Helena were her professionalism and her great courtroom demeanor. Like her colleague, Martin Delaney, Helena always meets filing deadlines, re...turns phone calls within the day, even if its after hours, and is always on time to court appearances. Helena is friendly and cordial, but will not hesitate to ask the Judge to decide a matter if faced with unreasonable, rude, or bullying opposing counsel. Helena is great at providing no outward response in the courtroom to questions, comments, and rulings, but definitely lets you know how she feels away from the courtroom. I would highly recommend Helena to anyone seeking top notch family law assistance.
