A Rock Through a Difficult Divorce

I’m so grateful to have had Genevieve by my side during a lengthy and exhausting divorce. From the very beginning, she was honest and realistic, never overpromising but always moving things forward. She stayed steady through the long, stressful process, grinding through every detail with patience and... determination. She handled my stubborn ex calmly and firmly, and always kept my child’s best interests at the heart of every step. Genevieve gave me confidence and optimism at the most difficult time of my life and delivered great results. I highly recommend Genevieve as a great professional and good honest person!

Life Saver

After being blindsided with a request for a divorce I searched everywhere for lawyers that could help me immediately. My head began to spin with all the horror stories I heard about men's representation in divorce/parental proceedings, especially being a man of color. I was blessed to find Genevieve ...Davis. She immediately took my case and helped with every step of reacting to my divorce. Mrs. Davis took care of everything, and was always extremely prompt returning my calls and took her time explaining anything I did not understand (which was alot). I am aware that this is not a guarantee, but for my specific case, Mrs Davis was able to get me everything I requested specifically the time I requested with my children. She is extremely kind, excellent at her job, and most importantly empathetic. In this worst situation she got me the best results. I am forever grateful for her services.

Highly Recommend! Professional, caring, fair, hard-working Attorney

I was blessed to find Ms. Davis and have her assistance in my Family Law case. After my ex-wife contracted a dirty and unscrupulous lawyer to “destroy my life”, as she said herself, I went through almost 2 years of fear and depression due to the threats and unimageable lies they made up about me in t...he process. Taking advantage of my ex-wife ignorance, her perverse lawyer kept throwing her against me, making false affirmations about myself and pushing us to go into court trials just to fill up her pockets, not caring at any moment about our mental health or even about our 5 years old daughter who was in the middle of all that. Trapped in this legal imbroglio they stuck me in, and after talking to many many family attorneys - that only seemed to care if I had enough money to pay their fees - I was extremely hopeless until Ms. Davis called me and said she was going to handle my case. That was a life changer for me. Like an angel sent from the heavens she calmed down, made feel protected and drove me through the most difficult situation of my life. Very knowledgeable, caring and fair, she won our final trial and I was still rewarded attorneys fees from my evil ex-wife. Ms. Davis did an amazing job in my case and I will always recommend her. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Brilliant, Relentless and Compassionate

There aren't enough words to say how amazing Ms. Davis as an attorney. My case was fraught with high level conflict regarding custody of my 1 1/2 year old daughter, we were in a very unsafe living situation at the time and Genevieve took no stops to be present in her legal advice to get us out safe...ly, she took my frantic calls on the weekends and guided my daughter and I both out of the situation (legally speaking). After our temporary parenting plan was put into place, she worked tirelessly to prepare us for our Permanent Parenting Plan. She guided me through multiple protection orders and gracefully handled harassing calls from my ex. At all times Ms. Davis remains with a level head and exceptionally thorough in navigating the intricacies of both combative relationships and the legal system itself. My daughter's father struggled with following the rules in our Temp PP and her council successfully lead us through CR2A agreements, contempt orders and even a criminal case. By the time we reached the Permanent Parenting Plan trial, we received every last thing we asked for, including the requirement of my daughter's father going to DV Dad's and Anger Management counseling. While my ex and I will never be "friends" through this process and counseling we are slowly learning to be civil. Again, do not hesitate to consider Ms. Davis as council. Her brilliant, relentless and compassionate guidance can get you the results you seek not only where you are right now, but where you want your family to be in the future.

Very professional and collaborative work!

We hired Genevieve to help us with end-of-life matters and estate planning. She was tremendously helpful. She knew exactly what questions to ask, and guided us through a labyrinth of options - explaining things clearly and calmly. She brought a wealth of experience to our unique situation and help...ed us finalize all the documents we need. She was patient with our numerous questions - always prompt and professional with her response. My wife and I enjoyed working with Genevieve and enthusiastically recommend her.
