Betsy F Walits JD

Betsy is the absolute BEST attorney. I totally lucked out when I found her. She took the time to understand how a divorce was going to affect me personally as well as financially. I felt as though a friend was guiding me through a process that, while painful, was necessary. The other attorney p...layed games and stalled--for 3 years. Betsy navigated the roadblocks and brought it to a conclusion with a settlement that I was comfortable with. While it was one of the worst times of my life it was comforting to know that I had an advocate in my corner who always had my best interests in mind.

I retained Betsy again to handle my child support modification. The fact that this is only the second time I required her services was a huge relief. The first time, she made it so that my obligation was adjusted automatically upon termination of my child’s college attendance. I simply contacted t...he court house and notified them to make it happen. It was great to not have to go to court again that time. I required another modification two years later. I simply e-mailed Betsy and got a prompt response. She didn’t miss a beat. She was still very familiar with my case and got the ball rolling in a very timely manner. I still live out of state but that wasn’t a hinderance when dealing with her. If I had a question, I would e-mail. She would always respond that same day with accurate and clear information. If I had an urgent question or needed to talk to her, I called and was always able to speak directly with her. I truly appreciated her professionalism and dedication to her profession. I had another great outcome to my case and will definitely retain her services again in the future if needed. Her fees were very reasonable and there is not a single thing I could comment on in a negative way. Thank you Betsy for making a stressful situation as easy as possible. My wife and I greatly appreciate it!

We ended up firing her. Communications broke down almost immediately stopped returning calls and emails. Lost or would not read documents vital to case and had to resend multiple times. She would come up with a strategy and then abandon it without explanation then get mad at you for asking about it. ...She would wait till last minute to communicate during negotiations making the process rushed. Unprofessional, she actually answered the phone with “what do we have to talk about” not hello when the other attorney wanted information she emailed last minute and I had questions on. Her insults to my ex-wife were offensive to me, and I don’t have anything good to say about my ex! It was unreal. We were responsive and polite to her. I would say if you hire her proceed with caution. Family law is not her strong suit and like most lawyers know emotions run high with family law, she’s not built for it. Disorganized, lack of knowledge, rude, petulant, and lazy.

After talking to many lawyers, I finally made my decision to hire Betsy. She is honest, straightforward, offers every possible outcome, and thoroughly walked me through the entire process of this horrible custody battle I have going on. Just attended court this morning and walked away with everything... we talked about and I wanted. It's not completely over but it's a huge step in a positive direction! She knows her stuff! Highly recommend to anyone! I'm very happy so far and will post again after all this is over with!

Attorney Walits is simply amazing! My previous attorney had royally screwed up my divorce case and it was a total mess. Attorney Walits listened to my concerns and honestly understood the fine details of my case. She is what we are all searching for in an attorney. She fought for me and we won!!! I c...annot stress enough the hard work she put into representing me and her rates are very affordable. Don't go anywhere else and spend your valuable money on an attorney that you hope will fight for you. Attorney Walits is a fighter and I am so glad that I found her. If you want to win, she is definately the one to hire. You will not be dissapointed!
