Knowledgeable, Personable, Efficient

I had been through some difficult, confusing and painful years after losing legal custody of my child. I needed help to get custody back and bring stability to my child’s life, and Hank Pailet came to the rescue. He had my case under control from the moment he took it on. Hank communicated honestly... and compassionately, prioritizing my child’s wellbeing and focusing on the aspects of the case necessary to secure a successful outcome. I HIGHLY recommend this attorney to anyone seeking help with custody or any family law matter.

Helped a lot at a difficult time

I hired Hank to step in after being unrepresented at my divorce trial. He quickly on-boarded and kept the opposing council from overstepping during the completion of the Judgement. Moreso, he helped formulate a plan to recover from the punitive support payments that were due to opposing council mis...representing my income and silencing my attempt to portray the truth in the trial. Not only is he easy to work with, but I feel his guidance and approach saved me hundreds of thousands in support payments through negotiating a successful modification.

Hank is great

Hank was professional, thoughtful, and friendly. He was helpful and clearly explained things when clarification was needed. He was fast and efficient. He prepared a will for me and represented me in a divorce. I would not hesitate to use Hank again if I needed legal assistance.

Professional, knowledgeable and efficient

Hank exceeded my expectations and ultimately provided the solutions that met all of my goals without compromise. I started my divorce on my own but quickly realized that I needed professional assistance to reach a fair resolution. I hired Hank because his professionalism was very important to me, as ...I was able to share personal information that was necessary to understand my situation. We were able to openly discuss all of my options to determine the best path for me. Because of his knowledge of Family Law, Hank was able to react quickly and bring closure to my divorce. One thing I admire about Hank was his ability to reassure me that I had someone there for me when I needed help. If the need arises, I would hire Hank to help me resolve my legal matters.

Thorough and patient

We met with Hank to complete a durable power of attorney and an advanced directive for my 83-year-old Mother. Hank was extremely patient with my Mom and allowed her to talk and work through her questions at her own pace. We did not feel rushed. He used simple examples that we all could relate to a...nd understand. Hank also has a very pleasant, welcoming demeanor.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
