Posted by Roni | June 22, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Aurejila is everything you could ask for in a Divorce Attorney.

Divorce is an arduous and emotional process. Aurelija was always available to clarify, explain, and answer questions. She has an obvious mastery of the legal issues, and a calm demeanor which was exactly what I needed. When actions from the opposing side were not answered or not handled to her sati...sfaction, Aurejila was professionally tenacious in getting the problems solved. I had total faith in her advice. She is down-to-earth, always made me feel comfortable, and you will see from the start that she is someone you can trust. Don't hesitate to hire Aurejila...she's definitely "the one".

Thank you, Aurelija!

I highly recommend Aurelija Fitzpatrick of J. Merel Family Law. She is intelligent, experienced, knowledgeable, and efficient. She is caring and willing to explain things to her clients, but very tough with the opposition. This toughness was important for my difficult divorce case. Aurelija worke...d extremely hard to get a fair settlement for me, and came up with creative solutions to deal with major sticking points in our negotiations. I am so grateful to have worked with Aurelija.

  • 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.
