Lindasue Smollen

She stated she would get my ex to pay her attorneys fees. I agreed to have her represent me on that basis. My ex had a professional career that paid very well. However, when we got his bank records it was clear he had hidden money. Concerned she would not be paid, she did not prepare for Court and li...terally showed up right as Court was about to start. She cost me thousands of dollars due to her lack of preparedness. Do yourself a big favor by not using her and go find a competent attorney. I would give her zero stars if that was an option.

The first time I met with Lindasue she advised me not to get divorced because of the stress. How many attorneys are that honest? Once my husband filed, she had great advice all the way along. She always knew when I was being played but never pushed me toward more conflict which, in the end, might hav...e gotten her more money. She did everything she could to keep her fees reasonable - I always felt she had my best interests in mind (not always true with divorce attorneys). She had my back. When there was something unethical happening from my ex's attorney, she saw it right away and jumped on it. She's just aggressive enough to not let someone walk over you, but not so aggressive to start unnecessary conflicts/litigation. I have huge respect for Lindasue and recommend her to anyone getting divorced. She really CARES about her work and her clients.

Lindasue Smollen receives the highest recommendation in all areas from me. She has the backbone needed to resolve a five year post divorce decree case involving child support and real estate. She was my fourth attorney and within six months navigated the case to closure. Her long standing career in t...he Boulder legal network gave her the advantageous intuitive edge to work with judges and to select effective mediators. She showed the utmost sensitivity to my needs as a client . Not only was she very supportive, but also showed an appropriate level of professional empathy. Ms. Smollen split the case into two manageable parts; and we only proceeded with one part at a time. Once I accomplished the homework assignments, then I would call her and set up the next meeting. Thus, the "flow" of the case was client-centered and not so overwhelming. Lindasue Smollen is a highly organized attorney. She methodically gathered the five year history and realized that previous attorneys and mediators had not court-filed some documents. She filled in all the missing legal documents and filed them with the court. We prepared our best "air tight" case including clearly presented spread sheets and all supporting documents. Together, we dotted every single "I" and crossed every single "T." She filed all new motions in a timely manner. The motions were exceedingly thorough with cross reference links to related cases. She kept a strong forward momentum throughout the entire case. As with all successful attorneys, Lindasue has the savvy psychological component needed to determine the pacing, necessary strategies, and character of all involved. She furthermore has the heart to empathize and create long term solutions for her client which promote peace of mind.
