Susan Marie Alexander

My case was complicated, and after interviewing several family law attorneys and at the recommendation of a friend of mine, who is also a family law attorney, I hired Susan Alexander to represent me because of the complexity of my case. Long story short: A judge signed off on final divorce docume...nts even though my ex-husband and I weren't done negotiation. His counsel altered signed documents and asked the judge to agree to the terms due to default. The judge signed the documents and the divorce was final without any input from me, with the exception of the parenting plan. I interviewed several family law attorneys and none of them caught what Susan caught. My ex-husband's attorney altered signed documents not once, but twice, and the judge signed off on them. Susan was able to have my divorce case re-opened to allow for renegotiations AND was able to get my ex-husband's attorney sanctioned, which is big deal, from what I hear. It's a "no-no" for an attorney to alter signed documents, and the judge (a different judge) let her know that it was unacceptable practice, The judge questioned the quality of the other cases my ex-husband's attorney has handled due to her lack of integrity in representing my ex. Susan diligently works hard for her clients. She's compassionate and fierce, which is a great combination for someone who you want representing you. Thank you, Susan!

Susan helped me navigate a complex family matter and did so in a simple, clear and timely manner. Susan is a great communicator, both in terms of explaining options and actions as well as being prompt and concise in getting back to you when she says she will. I found it very helpful to have someone ...that would dispassionately outline different possible actions and be clear and articulate about her preferred approach.

I was referred to Susan by someone who was in a domestic violence situation with children like myself. Susan is an EXCELLENT 5 Star lawyer. I was extremely satisfied with her services and not only that - she is a kind, caring and very understanding person. She worked very hard on my difficult case... and was my champion and my mentor in helping me move forward with my life. She's a solid lawyer and well worth it - she deserves at least 5 stars because she is a fantastic domestic violence lawyer helping women like me. Thank you Susan.

I hired Susan after interviewing several attorneys. She has a great professional and direct approach. Her style is similar to my own, be factual and direct - no need to be nasty. Divorces can be done professionally - thanks to Susan! She gave very good legal guidance, and did well for me. She guided..., suggested, talked situations through with me, and offered plenty of examples to help me work through this process. I also chose to work with Susan because of her pre/post nuptial experience and background. Since there was a post-nup and children involved with my divorce, it was important that my hired attorney was well versed in laws pertaining to those agreements. Susan's experience and conversational approach definitely helped me through this process. In addition to her abilities, she has an incredible network of colleagues (thanks to years in the business) that you will find very helpful as well. She is a great connection and an excellent attorney. It is funny to say, but it seems like she would be my friend even if it wasn't a business relationship. That's probably a strange thing to write in a review, but that's a GREAT thing to say, after a divorce is final. To feel like your attorney was a "friend" is a very high compliment. A friend that can really hold her own in a legal setting....I am very happy she was sitting on my side of the table. Good luck with your attorney search!

Susan helped me traverse the family law system for over 12 years. Thankfully with years and years between needs. She, without exception, was professional, helpful, and not pushy to litigate. (Something I highly value.) Having a long-term established relationship was important to me so th...e initial explanation and case history was there. She is level headed during personally challenging and emotional periods. I most definitely recommend her.
