Lyn Conniff is an excellent attorney. As a fellow Family Law and Collaborative Practitioner, I've had the privilege to work with her as we each advocated for our clients' goals and interests. She's knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. She's unafraid to be creative with problem solving while keeping in mind her knowledge of the law. I highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Conniff Law Offices to all. Beginning with our initial consultation meeting, I knew I was in great hands and had great support from Conniff Law Offices. Lyn promised to handle my divorce quickly, effectively, and as much out of Court as possible - and she delivered. Lyn was able to alleviate a lot of the stress typically tied to the divorce process. Lyn provided experienced and expert legal guidance, legal insight and support during what is standardly a highly stressful and highly emotional time. Lyn was always quick to respond and made herself readily available to address

James Keleher handled my family law case with great professionalism and integrity. He and his associates took me through a very difficult case. I especially value that they always had the best interest of my kids as their first priority. Family law is very emotional and they were supportive while being very honest with me about what would be in the best interest of the children. They know the law and the courts inside out and want to get you and your family through the process as painlessly as possible. A lesser law firm may promise you the moon or tell you what you want to hear, since futile court

This is a law firm unlike any other. James and his team were very knowledgable, skilled negotiators, and provided overall excellent representation. They were respectful of the tone I wanted to set, took the time to listen and ensure all my questions were answered appropriately, and helped me stay focused on the overall goal. They made what could have been a terrible experience a lot less stressful, and I'm confident this team is the reason I had a positive outcome.

The process of my divorce has been one of the most difficult things in my life - aside from the marriage itself. I had chosen Conniff Law Offices because I wanted accomplished in mediation and compromise, but who could also put up a fight against the worst in their industry should settlement fail. I have not been disappointed for even one moment.
Throughout the entire time I have been completely astounded by the level of legal prowess, professionalism, and even humanity that I have seen from every individual I have met at Conniff Law Offices; all the way from the paralegals who know me by my voice

The best recommendation I would offer to anyone who might consider Lyn to represent them is to choose another lawyer. I expected the whole proceedings to take no more than 6 months because my spouse and I had decided to go our separate ways but it dragged on for over a year. Lyn was successful in only depleting my funds from my accounts.

From the first moment I walked into their office to the final handshake when it was all over, Conniff Law was there for me every step of the way. Their guidance and counsel was truly invaluable during a difficult time in my life. Divorce is never easy but having smart and honest people represent you makes a world of difference. I would certainly recommend Connif Law to anyone who values an approach to family law that is thorough and confident yet thoughtful and fair.

I went through a divorce recently and it was the most stressful, overwhelming decision I've made in my life. (especially since I have kids) Conniff Law made the experience much more bearable. The entire staff was very professional and very friendly - they almost felt like a small family. Lyn was very knowledgeable on all of the questions and concerns that I had – from custody to property division. She was very easy to talk to and always made sure I understood and was comfortable with the decisions that had to be made during the process. She was also respectful to the opposing parties attorney

I worked with John to finalize the details of my divorce. Right from the get-go I knew I had made the right decision of having Conniff Law represent me. John was very knowledgable and always kept me updated with what was happening with my divorce. He responded to my phone calls and emails in a timely manner, and broke down the process in terms I would understand. Their rates were very reasonable as well. I'm grateful I had him on my side!

My husband and I have used Conniff Law Offices on two occasions and both times we were extremely impressed with not only the results, but the process. After having less than stellar experiences with other lawyers, we were very pleased with our choice. They have a personal touch that can be lost with some-- and is quite invaluable. They are professional, personal and work hard on your case. We worked mainly with Mr. Kelleher who followed up on all of our requests, worked extremely well with the other parties involved, worked quickly and effective, and got us great results.

I used Lyn for a collaborative divorce last year. As far as divorces go, collaborative is the way to go, and Lyn is the attorney to use for it. Lyn and her colleagues helped me navigate through the divorce, parenting agreement, and a financial agreement that made a potentially ugly situation tolerable. From start to finish I knew she had my back and her main focus was a settlement that was fair.
I have called Lyn several times after my divorce for other family matters and she has always found time to discuss my situation. I highly recommend Lyn Conniff Law Offices for anyone needing family

I cannot express enough the debt of gratitude I owe this firm.
Before finding Lyn I used another attorney back in 2003. This attorney explained that I could never have custody of my daughter because I was the father. This attorney advised me to setup a standard parenting agreement that amounted to very little visitation on my part.
I started with Lyn in 2005 and by 2007 I had sole custody of my daughter. When it comes to legal matters nothing is fast, but less than two years in the scheme of things is pretty quick. In the meantime before I gained sole custody Lyn made sure that I received
