I really appreciate that you took the time to convey your positive experience with my office. Our goal is and has always been, to provide all clients with professional legal representation and the attention that they deserve. Thank you!

Posted by Katie | August 27, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Above and beyond!!!

Mrs. Kolber and her staff from day one were professional and responds back very quickly with emails and phone calls. Ms. Kolber went above and beyond for me. She called me on weekends and evenings their was an issue with my daughter’s biological dad’s Soberlink. In addition, each time we went to cour...t she got the job done and fighting for me and my daughter. Her number one priority was always the safety of my daughter. I would highly recommend Ms. Kolber and her office to take on your case. They care about you and make you feel comfortable anytime you talk to them. Thank you Ms. Kolber and staff for being so kind. Katie

Katie, Thank you so much for this review. As you so eloquently stated, our #1 priority was and will always be your daughter's safety, as nothing could be more important than that. Moreover, despite the opposing party's flaws and problems, you always kept a level head and did the right thing for your daughter including preserving her relationship with her father. Kudos to you Katie!.

We strive to be organized, professional, as well as available to our clients during and even after a client's case has concluded. We appreciated your endorsement as it is the highest compliment that we can receive. Thanks!

Posted by Haleigh | August 27, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Clear, direct, and communicative

Ann has been wonderful to me. She got me through a terrible divorce in which my ex was trying to take my parental rights for revenge. She and her staff were wonderful at explaining to me how everything would go, kept me informed about my case, and calmed my fears. When we had an issues a couple years... later with determining our children's schools, she was wonderful and informative and calming all over again. She is not going to sugar coat things so if you're the kind of person who wants information stated clearly and directly, she's exactly who you are looking for. She's a little expensive but totally worth the $$.

Haleigh, We believe that the greatest service that we can offer to our clients is our ability and willingness to be honest, straightforward, manage expectations, and communicate effectively. By your review, it is clear that we accomplished that goal and, for that, we are so pleased. You are a great person and mother, and it was a privilege to represent you and protect your rights. We are always here for you!

Made the best out of a difficult time

Last March I found myself at wits end, at least what felt like it. I was referred Ann by a mutual friend and came into her office a frantic wreck. I had realized I wanted a divorce but didn't know where to start or how to do it. Ann's energy calmed me down and made the entire process incredibly easy.... Though the journey was not what either of us anticipated, I knew I was in good hands the entire time. Her knowledge and presence in the court room made it possible for me to relax and I felt like she guided me through the process. I wouldn't have been able to go to court without her by my side. Through the duration of my case, she kept communication up to date and consistent and made everything very smooth. Ann's passion for her job made me feel at ease, knowing that she cared about the outcome of my case. Divorce isn't easy. Even the "simple" divorces come with so much more than just a signing of some papers... it's an emotional and exhausting period of ones life that cannot truly be explained until you've personally lived through it. Attorney Ann Kolber was the best decision I made to help me through one of the most difficult times I've ever experienced. I'm so incredibly grateful for her during that time of my life and would recommend her to anyone.

Alexis, Thanks for your kind review! It was a pleasure representing you. You always took the high road throughout a very emotional time and demonstrated strength throughout. Your understanding that even a "simple" divorce is not simple was extremely insightful, as every divorce is life-changing for the people involved, and no one should minimize the toll that it can take. Our very best to you for a bright future!
