Karen Elizabeth Silver

It sounds dramatic but this is the truth. Karen helped save me and my son during an extremely traumatic and difficult chapter of my life. I went through a bitter custody battle with my son’s narcissistic father, and without Karen I honestly don’t know where I would be today. She is whip smart, strate...gic, calm and supportive all while keeping her eye on the bigger picture. She is graceful and committed to the case regardless of how complex the situation becomes. She looked ahead of the immediate problems and provided me with advice that proved to be critical in addressing unforeseen issues that arose. She never made me any empty promises or steered me wrong. Instead she kept me sane by holding the bar high at all times, and modeled for me how to do the same in this complicated legal world. She is one of the most reliable and competent people I’ve ever known, and would always take my calls and was available to answer my endless repetitive questions without delay. She knows what’s at stake and is honest about every possible outcome every step of the way. I know how triggering and heartbreaking it can be to end up in court, especially when you know it’s not in your child’s best interest. Karen understands this and fights with intelligence and facts while she kept my child at the top of the priority of all the decisions we made. She taught me how to rise above the psychological abuse that my ex inflicted on me and my son - that is something I am eternally grateful to her for. It’s unjust and awful to have to spend money on keeping your child safe from the other parent, but the lessons I learned from Karen about how to deal with my son’s father for the rest of my life, are invaluable and worth every penny. I now refer to the verb ‘Karenize’ whenever I write anything down. Thank you Karen.

Karen Silver represented me during my very difficult divorce and again two years later when my ex-husband took me back to court, and she proved to be someone I could count on to always have my back. She was open and honest with me from day one and I trusted her and relied on her sound advice. Karen i...s extremely knowledgeable in the field of family law and is confident, firm and experienced in court. She was very patient with me, guided me, answered my questions, listened to my concerns, consulted with me and respected me. She made herself available if I needed her and even communicated with me over the weekend. She is devoted to her clients and gives 100% of herself. During my divorce, Karen met with me with opposing counsel and also in Mediation with my ex-husband. She practiced with me beforehand and wanted me to be as comfortable and prepared as possible. Whether we were in court or in mediation, Karen Silver was prepared and calm and ready to advocate for me. I prevailed in court at both appearances thanks to the support of my dedicated attorney. Karen Silver is someone that you want on YOUR TEAM if you are going through a contentious divorce. I highly recommend her for all your family law needs. Sincerely, Ricki Averbach

Karen is absolutely wonderful! I hired Karen after my ex-husband decided to randomly move to CA, go MIA, and not follow through with our divorce decree from SC. After 2 years of dealing with the courts in SC it became clear moving my case to CA was my only option. I contacted many lawyers (at le...ast 20) and it was apparent Karen was the only one I would trust to handle my case. I cannot even come close to explaining the complexly of trying to enforce a divorce decree when on party moves to another state. There are so many different state laws to follow and Karen was more than qualified for the challenge. Within 2 months of hiring Karen she able to locate my ex-husband (which no one else could manage to do for the past 2 years) and have him complete all the documents I needed for me to move on with my life. She might not be the cheapest lawyer in the area, but she is worth every penny and then some. Karen is great about communicating options with you, and kept the cost down lower than I ever thought was possible. Not only is she an absolutely outstanding lawyer she is kind, approachable, professional and easily accessible. I live in SC so we did all our communicating via email and phone. I always had an answer in less than 24 hours (normally within the hour). I could go on and on, but do yourself a favor if you need a family law attorney just hire Karen.

Karen Silver helped me go through the most difficult divorce. I was confused at all the money missing from my account and Karen quickly discovered hidden assets I had no idea we even had! I went from being a victim to getting my fair share of assets. I will forever be grateful to her and would recom...mend her to ANYONE (and have)
