Brenda "will be the heavy" when needed.

I'm quoting her. Brenda is very honest and direct, which was very helpful. My case involved a number of unexpected unknowns concerning secrets kept by my ex-wife that, for me, were very challenging to navigate. While the major issues, particularly parenting time, were settled outside of court, and ne...ither of us excepted that the case would proceed to court, when that surprise came Brenda was prepared to the nth degree. During a tediously long and frustrating day of court, Brenda never lost steam and probably fought harder for me than I would have for myself. Her representation was top-notch. The fact that we'd settled the important matters beforehand is testament to her professionalism and guidance on how to deal with the legal nuances for a conflict in which I often felt upside-down.

Great Lawyer Can Help Reach What You Want

As a mother, nothing is more important than to be there for your child whenever she needs and to give her all the love and nurturing a mother can. I was scared and stressed going through separation and custody fight. When I found Brenda through AVVO and met her for an initial consultation, I felt str...ongly that she will be able to help me reach what I wanted for custody. My intuition was right. Brenda has been straightforward since the first time I met her, as she told me what I can expect and what I should not. She acted not only professionally, but also showed caring attitude throughout my case. It was as if she can feel what I was suffering before and during a rough divorce. She was very assertive, strong, knowledgeable, and knows what a mother wants the best for her child as she is one herself. She helped me step-by-step. Whenever I had questions or doubts, she and her staff were always quick in response. When my ex and his attorney tried to control things with threat, I wouldn't have been able to stand my feet so strong without her team. I totally agree with another person said in her review: She is confident because she knows what she is doing and will not be intimidated by games that unfortunately some attorneys try and play. I learnt the most important thing: NEVER give in to the opponent, always stand strong on your feet, because then they will always bargain with you. In the end, what matters the most is that I got what I asked: That I am the primary parent because I have always been since the day I became a mother, and that it is and would be in my daughter's best interest to be with her mom mostly and we could relocate together. What a relief! In addition, she also fought for me for part of the attorney fees that the opponent should pay due to their irresponsible actions and not following agreements and the court granted me. I really appreciate Brenda and her team and feel lucky that I have her behind my back. You can count on her and her staff.

Worth every penny!!

Brenda and her staff were there for me every step of the way through my divorce. I outlined what I wanted the outcome to be and she made it happen and took ALOT of stress off me. She is not only highly professional but very personable and gave me great advice and support.

Wonderful Attorney!

I found it so difficult finding an attorney for several matters that involved custody time with my daughter as there are few reviews to go by. Brenda was so helpful in assisting me from day one and even after two years, she still has our best interests at heart in regards to saving money and doing wh...at's best for all parties. I am so happy to have her represent me. I knew I would get results due to her professionalism and knowledge of the court system. She recommended I used Danielle for a contempt issue to save me money as she knew how important finances are for my daughters future. This just shows she is a genuinely caring person that is not out to just abuse peoples traumatic life changing events as I've witnessed in the past. We laughed often through the bad situation I had found myself in and is truly somebody I refer to as a friend for all she's done for my little girl and I. I'm a single dad and was so pleased with the outcome. If you are looking for a quality lawyer, please take her offer of a consultation. I felt it only write a review as I myself, had such a hard time looking for the right Attorney. Brenda referred two other attorneys to me for in regards to property matters that also excelled in their fields. I'm forever grateful to her and know I'll be well represented when future issues arrive should I need her.

Post Decree Matters

I have just settled a post decree motion and can't say enough positive things about Brenda and her entire team. My case has been lengthy and complicated and emotional - as most cases can be. I have been dealing with an emotionally abusive/ addicted ex, who put our kids in jeopardy, and hid all hi...s financials from me- to the extent that I wasn't even receiving child support. After years of trying to solve the matter on my own, and "nicely"- I faced facts and Brenda helped me get tough and truthful. If you really want someone to fight for you, and for your children- Brenda really is the attorney for you! I thank her for all she did for me and my children.
