Ellen M. Ross

Ellen is the consummate professional! Her knowledge and expertise....and more notably, willingness to go the extra step, in terms of follow up, made the process of pursuing Legal Guardianship of my special needs son, completely stress free. In fact, I'm hiring Ellen for the next item on my to-do li...st. I need a Will.

Ellen was straightforward, honest, helpful, and really fun to deal with (even in a very stressful situation). She had good advise and was not offended when I chose not to take all of it, which made the process less stressful than it could have been. She explained my options completely and fulfilled... everything she said she would do. I would definitely recommend her to any friend who was in need of a divorce lawyer.

I had a custody case that lasted a very long time. When Ellen took over my case she wrapped it up very fast. She was very professional and got straight to the point. She gave me very good advice on how to handle everything. I would definitely use her again if I had another case. Best attorney I have ...had!

Years ago I consulted with this lawyer by phone. It still bothers me to this day how judgment she was without knowing any facts--and, in fact, commenting on situations I was familiar with and she appeared to know nothing about. After telling her I had raised a child with Aspergers who was still liv...ing with me, and hoping to review spousal support she said, "Well, if a 28 year old was living with me I would tell him it's time to leave." Somewhere in the consult she asked if I had any special equipment at home for his disability. Clearly, she did not know what Aspergers Syndrome is. When you are seeking help from a lawyer, you should not be subjected to that lawyers personal opinions. It made if difficult for me to seek help from any other lawyers after that conversation. Finding positive reviews for her--even more upsetting. Treat everyone the same. You are a lawyer.
