James David Stensel

James was my attorney as I filed divorce from my husband, having signed a prenup under duress. We have two minor children. James was able to strategize all the way, and knew every fact of my case, through the custody issues and also settled my case in a manner that protected me, as I had signed a pre...nup (which would have been an uphill battle to overturn) and provided a very fair amount for me to re start my life. Most of all, he and his paralegal Honor really understood the complex emotional issues along the way and treated me with respect and dignity. The communication along the way was beyond excellent. He acted throughout with great honesty and integrity.

James Stensel aptly assisted me with my divorce. He clearly explained the law and my rights and answered all of my questions along the way. He helped deal with an attorney on the other side that prepared sloppy documents that were full of mistakes regarding what we owned and what I was awarded. He cl...eaned up that attorney’s mess and made sure that my final divorce documents were clear and concise. In addition to the task at hand, he also focused on ensuring that our agreements foreclosed on my ex-spouse’s ability to come back later and try to take more. I was pleased with James’ work on my case and would certainly recommend him to others

In the end, I was very satisfied with how the matter was resolved, and can point to James' contributions as the major factor in achieving this success.
