Fast and smooth

Everything went fast and smooth. Rachel always sent me response quickly and Fiona called me before court date and gave me instructions before court date. Thank you.

Smart, Quick and Compassionate

Fiona made a difficult time easier. Divorce is never easy but with the right team, it can be easier. She was quick to respond to all my questions and made the process as painless as humanly possible.

Fiona is the BEST attorney I've ever hired!

I hired Fiona for some child support modifications and agreements that were necessary well after my divorce was final. My only regret is that I didn't meet her earlier and wasn't able to hire her to handle my litigation from the very beginning. I have dealt with too many attorneys to even remember th...oughout the 10+ year ordeal of my divorce and Fiona is by far the best I've ever met. I know that if I had met her in the beginning, I would have had a much different and amicable outcome than I ended up with. I'll start by saying that she was respectful of me as a client and, unlike many attorneys, didn't try to force me into useless confrontation. She understood what I wanted and worked on my behalf for the solution which achieved the outcome I needed. She was easy to communicate with, responsive, and really made me feel like I finally had somebody on my side. That's a feeling I hadn't known for a LONG time. Fiona knows the law and will advise you in a straighforward manner about what is and isn't possible: all while allowing you to make the ultimate decision on how things should go. She is the most professional attorney I've ever met. I don't recall ever seeing her get flustered or caught off guard, either in front of the judge or because of another attorney. I've seen a lot of attorneys who talked a big game, but then fell apart in court. Fiona was very comfortable and professional in front of the judge. That is a very important thing to consider, especially if you are involved in a contentious divorce. Fiona helped me get to the finish line of my ordeal with dignity and respect, when I thought I was going to get put through the ringer one last time before it was all over. She didn't let that happen to me. The only thing left for Fiona to do is to create the pre-nuptual agreements for my children when the time comes for them to marry. I won't let them marry without it and I won't use anyone else to do it but Fiona. The best decision you will ever make is to hire Fiona to represent you. If you still need convincing, she has my permission to allow you to contact me for a reference.

Highly Recommend Fiona McCormick

Fiona is a caring and professional lawyer who stuck by my side for what has to be the longest and most miserable divorce case ever! I'd need more than 4,000 characters to really explain what happened and how amazing she was during this ordeal. There were constant twists and turns, unexpected delays... and ridiculous games played by my now ex-husband and his attorney that at times made it seem like the case would never be finalized. Fiona stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process. She always took the time to explain everything to me. She consciously tried to keep me updated and calm, every step of the way, especially when she had to tell me things she knew I would be upset about. She made sure I understood my options and provided sincere encouragement along with her professional advice in a manner that showed honest concern for me and my future. She is smart, caring, and compassionate while being firm and strong in the courtroom. I can say for sure that she can handle difficult situations and difficult people, always keeping what's best for her clients at the forefront of her actions. I can't thank her enough for her patience with me and for always keeping me well informed about every single thing, both big and small, that came up during my case. She is an excellent attorney and I would not have wanted anyone else representing me. I highly recommend Fiona McCormick.
