Gemma Elisabeth Fenimore

I hired Gemma to represent me through my divorce. She was very knowledgable about the law and my rights. She went above and beyond what I think most lawyers would have done, to ensure that I received what was fair and right for myself and my children. I do believe had I had a different attorney, t...hings would not have worked out for my family as well as they did. She not only worked with me, but with my ex as well, to help make this process as smooth as possible.

Gemma was my lawyer for a divorce was simple on paper. We have no assets of value besides cash on hand. No property besides 2 twenty year old cars. My soon to be ex husband is a vindictive pathological liar and made things difficult just because he could. He fought with me over 20 year old furnit...ure that is falling apart and separate property. Gemma remained calm when I was overwhelmed with emotion dealing with him and his lawyer. She came up with a great solution that settled the divorce when it felt like there was no end in sight. Gemma is extremely easy to understand and highly responsive. She kept me aware of her time usage with an simple log. I consider her hourly rate to be very fair considering her level of experience. I would recommend and use her again for other services if the need arose.

I feel like my case was difficult because my ex wife and myself could not communicate due to a military no contact order. Regardless of this, Gemma was able to work with us to expedite our divorce process and help to alleviate my stress from the situation. Gemma's knowledge and job proficiency was wh...at made me confident in her ability to help this finish quickly and with little to no issues.

I called Gemma hoping to have her help in defending me in divorce court. Her cost and retainer were reasonable and I was ready to get started on my case. I ended up not being able to come up with the retainer cost so instead I paid for an hour of her time to sit with me and develop my response and wh...at I needed to say. She was incredibly thorough, knew the laws and prepared me for what to expect. She was honest about what to realistically expect out of the case giving me worst case scenario. I am incredibly grateful for her time and her care to check in on me after my hearing to see how it went! I will definitely be hiring her if I need legal help again in the future!
