Posted by anonymous | December 19, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Family

A Very Focused, Determined and Caring Family Law Attorney

Elizabeth represented me in a highly contested family law matter where the odds of success (at any level) were stacked against me. While some attorneys' style is act like those you've seen on TV, Elizabeth's style works very well in navigating through the maze of today's legal system. She's always ve...ry well prepared, calmly and carefully crafts her arguments and presents her case with great care and empathy steering you through a very confusing and sometimes painful process. Elizabeth made my legal matter tolerable. I would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone with a family law issue.

EPITOME of EXCELLENCE

My case was a unique situation to say the least. Words can not begin to explain my gratitude and appreciation for Elizabeth Demonte and all her diligence in dealing with my case. Her tenacity, knowledge of the law, professional integrity, and honesty are unprecedented. She encompasses the epitome... of what every lawyer should be and the exact kind of representation anyone should have in these kinds of situations. Any custody issue is a sensitive issue and should not be taken lightly. Anyone going through such an issue should absolutely have her on their side! I will forever be a referral for her!

Supportive and Clear Minded

Elizabeth wanted the best for my child and me. She did everything asked of her and supported my decisions at each step of the way. Her guidance was essential in helping me through this extremely difficult, stressful and time-consuming process.

Knowledgeable, Trustworthy and Caring

Ms. Demonte was right on top of things from the beginning to the end of my case. If i did not understand something she took the time to help me understand the paperwork, procedure and circumstances. Always kept me informed and up to date through prompt phone calls and emails. Yes, she did her job, an...d exceeded all of my expectations. I have not dealt with many lawyers, so I have little to no experience with them. She helped me through this nerve wrecking moment in my life. Ms. Demonte made this experience a bit more easier on me by showing she truly cares about her clients. She was concerned for the safety and well being of the child and myself at all times. I will always be so grateful for her help. I would hire Ms. Demonte again and would highly recommend her because she is knowledgeable, trustworthy and caring.
