Kathryn Sjulin Lonowski

Kathryn was recommended to me by a friend who had recently been through her own divorce. Retaining Kathryn was the best decision I could have made during that very difficult time. She is incredibly knowledgeable with every detail of divorce and fought for what was best for me. I am certain my divo...rce settlement is more than what it would have been without her guidance and expertise. I recently reached out to Kathryn again after 2 1/2 years because of a change in child support. She picked up right where we left off like it was yesterday and hasn't missed a beat. I am so glad Kathryn is in my corner!

I hired Kathryn after the death of my ex-husband to clean up the weak divorce decree that I had through another attorney. Kathryn was upfront with her fees, explained what she would and could do for me, and went above and beyond my expectations. I was emotional at times, so it was hard to hear the tr...uth, but in the end, she proved to be the best advocate I could have asked for to help me. I hired her and have no regrets. Unfortunately, my case had to be passed on to a probate attorney. I wish I still had Kathryn fighting for me because I know I would be happy with the end result!

She did not explain applicable laws and common pitfalls. She did not make any effort to identify hidden assets. She did not explain to me what terms of property settlement were enforceable and which were not. I negotiated better terms over the phone with my husband while she sent e-mails to opposing ...counsel stating she had plans to spend time with her kids and just wanted to be done with it. She was so eager to get her weekend started that she settled before looking at the home appraisal

Mrs. Lonowski was influential in the "positive" outcome of my case (there is NOTHING positive about divorce). I will say that at times she can seem a little bit rough around the edges with her clients but through it all I can see that she was standing up for my rights as a father and for the best pos...sible outcome for not only me, but also my son. Mrs. Lonowski is a firm advocate for the children and their well being through it all. Sometimes saying things you don't want to hear but, honestly, that is her job when things are in the thick of it. All I can say is that if you want a good family law attorney, Mrs. Lonowski is it. If you want a counselor, look somewhere else - they are cheaper elsewhere anyway. Overall, I highly recommend Mrs. Lonowski without reservation.
