Elaine Ryzak Fraser

I worked with Ms. Ryzak Fraser during a very challenging divorce. Her extensive experience in family law was evident from the start and she guided me through every step of the process with professionalism and care. My case involved serious accusations against me, but Ms. Fraser kept me focused on ...the long-term picture and the well-being of my family. She worked tirelessly with my ex’s attorney, striving to resolve matters outside of court, but when that failed, she was fully prepared to go in front of the judge. The court sided with us, ultimately sanctioning my ex and her lawyer. In addition to Ms. Ryzak Fraser's expert legal counsel, her team included a highly skilled paralegal and an excellent attorney for the financial and property division aspects of the divorce. Thanks to her and her team, I felt confident and well-represented throughout this difficult time. I highly recommend Ms. Ryzak Fraser.

Elaine was the attorney I worked with for my Collaborative Divorce. She was patient and really listened to my story, which was important to me. Her patience and calm demeanor became my touchstone during the team meetings. In Collaborative Divorce it's important that both parties first learn about Fam...ily Law and then navigate together to a conclusion that brings into focus empathy and humane values. This is especially true when you are working to dissolve a long-term marriage where there are children and hard-earned assets involved. My divorce was the most important negotiation of my life. Elaine helped me to more clearly realize what I wanted from the negotiations, then to ask for what I wanted. I am grateful and happy for the outcome and the minimal impact the process had on my family. I believe I had both a good marriage and a good divorce. I'm glad I had Elaine on my team during a difficult period of my life and would recommend her to anybody who wants to divorce with dignity.

Hired Elaine & Allison at Harris Fraser for divorce representation. Excellent representation and strong professional defense. Both have strong reputation in family law arena providing high credibility with judges and attys as well as deep knowledge of process/players. Elaine and team care about their... clients, and will help ensure your interests are protected to max extent possible

Almost 20 years ago I was facing a divorce and fortunately I met Elaine. She was honest, tough and fair. More importantly she brought the human element to a very stressful and life changing time in my life. She handled business and made my children and I a priority! Jump ahead to now, my daughter w...as facing a custody issue with her son's father. Without hesitation I called Elaine and I'm so glad I did, after almost 20 years she was my go to. Elaine, Allison and Jo make up a great team that once again brought knowledge, experience and compassion. Compassion and the human element was just as important to me as was a competent attorney and with Elaine you have it all. A family law attorney, like insurance, is something you hope you will never need but when you do you need the best! In my experience Elaine and her team are the full package. I hope never again to need a family law attorney however if I do I'll call Elaine, that's a given!

Elaine and her team are professional, efficient, and helpful. There were some complications in my case but eventually everything came out smoothly. I don't know many family law attorneys but I guess you can at least compare your attorney with the other party's. And I think Elaine and her team are way... better and more efficient than the other team. I am grateful I had appointed Elaine as my attorney.
