    "I couldn't have gotten through my divorce without her."
    Lindsay Noel and her team are wonderful. She was fast and efficient every step of the way. She was also excellent with answering any questions or concerns I had in a quick manner and in a language I could understand. I couldn't have gotten through my divorce without her and I'm extremely thankful that I had her on my side.

    "An awesome family attorney."
    Rainer Frank was an awesome family attorney. He helped our family through a difficult and long battle regarding custody and child support. In the end, he worked hard and not only solved the original issue, but helped us with adoption as well (which he took the time to research just for us). I could never thank him enough!

    "He put in a lot of hard work."
    I felt like the communication between Sam and I was very good and open, I never wondered what was going on and always got a prompt response to any questions. I felt like I truly had an advocate for me and my case. He put in a lot of hard work and I appreciate it.

    "Their thorough guidance was invaluable."
    During a very painful time in my life, I found a bright star in attorney Jennifer Payseno and her team. Two years later, my eyes well up with tears just remembering their compassion while guiding me with expert knowledge and precise actions. Their thorough guidance was invaluable.

    "I'm so happy I found them."
    My case is finalized!! There aren’t words to express my gratitude for Hillary Dawn and Ryan. Hillary has been my guide through the daunting process of family court. She and my paralegal Ryan kept me in the loop about possible outcomes, court dates, etc. They were always available by phone or email if I had additional questions or information. I’m so happy I found them.

    "Offered me sound advice."
    After 25 years of marriage I was blindsided when served with a petition for divorce. Jennifer was very professional, she took the time to understand my case, offered me sound advice and, along with her team, guided me through the entire process resulting in a fair settlement without going to court.

    "A phenomenal attorney."
    Caitlin Dennis is a phenomenal attorney! I can't say enough about what a blessing she was as her expertise is incredible. I would not hesitate a minute to recommend her to anyone. I am so grateful to have found Caitlin!

    "My team was head and shoulders above the rest."
    My team, Margaret Quartararo, her paralegal, Jacquelynn, and Grace were comforting, professional, prepared, and easy to correspond with. There were months of preparation leading to a very stressful morning. But once, we got into court, I realized, that my team was heads and shoulders above the rest.

    "I couldn't ask for a better team and outcome."
    Functioning like an extension of my family, Lindsay Camandona and the McKinley Irvin team educated me through all aspects of the marriage dissolution process, kept me informed and organized at every step, and genuinely cared for my well-being throughout the difficult and stressful experience. I couldn't ask for a better team and outcome – highly recommended!
