As if divorce isn’t hard enough…

After handling my divorce back in 2017, I had reached out to Michelle to see if she had a copy of my divorce decree and her response was, “no, I do not, and I’m not your secretary.” I think that response says more than enough about her character.

do not recommend - poor performance and understanding of law.

Sadly, in my highly conflictual divorce Mrs Harris gave me a number of wrong advises. I wanted to have a honest separation, but she convinced me to lie and stretch the truth of the facts. Besides taking long period of absence and delaying my case, those false stmt cost me in my child custody. I do... not recommend. Additionally she does not seem to know the code. She is a jack of trades laywer and master of none.

Highest recommendation

Michelle handled my high conflict divorce, custody, and support battle, and there is not a single decision that I have second-guessed or regretted over four and a half years of court hearings, delays, and appeals. She cares about what is best for the child throughout the entire process, and that made... it easy to make decisions based on her advice. She was always thinking about the long-term for my child and for the direction of the case.

A great family lawyer

I have had the opportunity to work with Ms Harris who is one the the brightest family lawyers I know. She will hold your hand if you need it, give direct and honest feedback and be aggressive when it's called for. She cares about the kids too. Would highly recommend her.
