Zionne Akpan

Zionne has been handling a complex, and contentious divorce and settlement agreement for me during the last five years. I have had quite a few attorneys over the years in my business who have solved unsolvable problems for me. But Zionne has exceeded all my expectations and is at the top of my list... of compentent lawyers. On my side of the table Zionne is like dealing with Oprah Winfrey, understanding and compassionate. Those on the opposing side of the table see quite a different personality, a sort of fierce mother polar bear, bravely defending her cubs. Her mind is like a steel trap and no detail is left unexamined. She sees every loophole the other side might use before they even think of it. I was born in Boston, so I have a prejudice towards Boston University graduates. But the combination of her fine education, intuitive insight, dogged attention to detail, and plain hard work makes her one of the most valued advisors in my journey through life.

Attorney Akpan did an amazing job for me as my divorce attorney. She handled my case with skill, knowledge and compassion. She was as tough as nails when she needed to be, yet helped me maintain a sense of perspective. She did a masterful job handling the negotiations throughout my separation and ...divorce proceedings, and countered every legal attack by my ex to full effect. I was especially impressed when she legally outmaneuvered my ex's attorney on several occasions. On the practical side, Attorney Akpan was always responsive and kept me informed on a regular basis on my legal proceedings. She was well organized and indispensible in helping me prepare for upcoming legal proceedings and anticipate potential upcoming issues. She is absolutely trustworthy, and helped protect my privacy during a particularly challenging legal portion of my separation.
