Amazing experience and lawyer.

I contacted Paula when my now ex wife decided we were over. Paula quickly made me feel like I was in good hands. She helped me get a property settlement done first so I could sell my house before my divorce was finished. She helped me understand every step of what we had to do. She was fast to reply ...always and her team was top notch. I could not of asked for an easier experience and better service. I would recommend Paula and her team to anyone.

!!! EXCELENT LAWYER !!!

I received divorce papers from my wife by surprise. We were fighting for quite some time and I was sure that we can resolve the issues via counseling but that was not the case. This action by my wife threw me to an emotional spin and confusion at the same time I was in fear of losing everything that ...I ever worked for all my life, including my house, kids, savings money, retirement etc. I was as lucky as can be to have Paula Borradaile as my lawyer. In a few short weeks Paula was able to get everything in my life back in order and remove any fears or concern off my mind. Her handling of my divorce was second to none! Paula was able to explain the process to me and dismissed many of the demands that were made by my x-wife’s lawyer in the initial divorce papers and during the negotiations process. There were no questions that Paula was not able to answer or give advice about. I was able to reach out to her via phone or e-mail and always got correspondence back. She was always reassuring and supportive of decisions I had to make no matter how tough they were and always looked for my best interest when it came time to decide or discuss custody, Money, division of martial assets etc. The only bad part is that this review is that this website only allows to rate a lawyer with 5 starts while she deserve 10 or more. I highly recommend Paula Borradaile to anyone who needs a competent, assertive, knowledgeable lawyer to handle their divorce case because that’s what Paula is.

Highly Recommended Paula as Family Lawyer

Paula Borradaile is a competent and personable lawyer that accomplishes her work very quickly; therefore, I highly recommend Paula to anyone seeking a family lawyer. Paula wrote my premarital agreement and covered all details to make sure my inheritance and assets are protected. I am fortunate to ha...ve Paula represent me because she warned me of all actions that can make a prenup invalid (a concept that most people don’t consider). Paula also gave advantageous advises on how to approach a future spouse with a premarital agreement (since these situations tend to be sensitive). She will provide expert recommendations that benefit the client she is representing. Paula kept the legal cost in mind and finalized the agreement quickly and thoroughly. For my case, I received some refund on my retainer fee, proving that Paula puts her clients need first. I have no regrets choosing Paula to represent me. I am highly satisfied with her work and I feel at ease having Paula as my lawyer.
