Cara Lauren Boroda

After 3.5 years making no progress with two prior mediators, one of which was a retired family law judge, I retained Cara Boroda to bring my divorce to a close. Our case wasn't complicated, but it was contentious and Cara was the perfect divorce attorney to bring it to a resolution. Cara's approachab...le, professional style immediately established rapport with both opposing counsel and our mediating judge. She quickly learned the merits and my case, digested the facts, sorted out areas of disagreement, and went to work on a strategy driving for closure. Cara effectively led both parties to a settlement in one settlement conference, finally bringing this divorce to a close in ONE settlement conference. She accomplished in one meeting what several attorneys and tens of thousands of dollars couldn't do. I can't say enough good things about Cara and Marlo. They are driven to deliver results, and are exceptionally smart, fair, honest, and capable attorneys. I highly recommend their services to anyone needing family law services.

Cara was absolutely phenomenal. I spent a year and half in court ensconced in a deep custody battle that was tumultuous. We had several court hearings and a PPA2 prior to our final judgment. I was awarded full custody of our daughter. Less than one year later, my ex-husband filed an RFO for a modific...ation to the visitation schedule and a request to lower his support payments. Cara took the time of her own accord to review the files and paperwork as well as research the current situation in depth. She had a keen understanding of narcissism and how it plays out in the court systems, especially as it relates to custody dynamics and was realistic, thorough and succinct in all communications with me prior to our hearing, as well as caring as to what was in the best interest always for our daughter. This type of care is not found often and especially when it's matched with an aggressive and intelligent attorney. She guided me in the correct ways and requested all appropriate evidence required to establish, without a shadow of doubt, our position. Her declarations were thoughtful, clear, well written and backed by a solid understanding of the legal system, my particular case and how to support our daughters best interest. She was compassionate and succinct in her communication with me, considering costs and not taking advantage of her time and my money. She was exceptionally prepared the day of court and exemplified a superb handle of the case in support of matter. The entire case was dismissed by the judge and our current judgement remains. After the hearing, she prepared the OAH quickly, efficiently and took the time to make sure I had the correct information and contact details to make arrangements with CSSD, and move forward with managing the follow through in my ex-husbands obligations to the judgement. I would highly recommend her and this firm, especially as it relates to family law. I feel very grateful I was referred to her and would use this firm again, without a second thought, should further proceedings arise. Their rates are competitive and fair and they provided service far and beyond what others do, in my experience. Highly, highly recommend!
