Having gone through divorce herself, Ms. Lazar understands the emotions involved and the seemingly unending stream of questions that arise. She is also aware of the financial strain that frequently accompanies the end of a relationship, as individuals who have grown accustomed to a two-income household are suddenly staring at one.
Our firm has embraced the state's Limited Assistance Representation (LAR) program, which allows a lawyer to provide limited services to a client affordably - usually for a flat fee. Under the LAR system, which is also known as "unbundling, " a lawyer can focus on a key component of a case and allow the client to manage the bulk of his or her case.

There comes a time for some families when it is better to re-invent themselves as two separate units than to remain together. The goal for this is to benefit everyone involved and especially to make the transition as smooth as possible if there are children involved. When this happens, it is important to have a lawyer on your side who understands Massachusetts family law as well as the stress and pain that you are going through.
Spousal support or alimony is financial support provided to a spouse after a legal separation and once a divorce is complete. It is awarded for a number of reasons, but most often because one spouse lacks the education, training or work experience to maintain a certain standard of living. In issuing an alimony order, the court should not exceed the recipients need or 30 to 35 percent of the difference between the parties' gross incomes.
Establishing paternity impacts a broad range of family law issues, including child custody and support, as well as father's rights. It has become increasingly important to establish paternity in instances where the parents are not married. The typical paternity action involves either a mother who seeks financial support for a child or a father who wishes to establish his right to visitation or custody.
Most aspects of a divorce involving someone who is a member of the military follow the same laws of a civilian divorce. However, there are a number of issues that are unique to military divorce proceedings.

I had a free consultation with her. She was rude quite a few times. Kept cutting me off and would not let me finish what I was saying. Told me she would take my case and less than 24 hours later emailed me and said she couldn't take my case. Based on her reviews I'm glad she didn't take my case! I do not recommend!

Just had a consultation with her. It was the absolute worst. She didn’t ask any questions. She told us to google the information. She then told us to go on a website and see what other people in our situation are doing. Of course we did our own research but isn’t the point of reaching out to lawyers because they are the ones that have the expertise in the field? At one point she says “I’m not your lawyer so I can’t tell you anything.” LOL. uumm DUH. She seemed all over the place. You can tell she puts no thought into her “consultation”. I still can’t get over her telling us to

Renee Lazar was paid to represent my daughter I a child custody case. She was ill prepared , read from a strip of paper . Each fact was read from a paper my gave her, that is something my daughter could and should have done.Not once questioned the defendant She never filed any paperwork that day so it is af is the case never existed. She’s unprofessional , crass, she said some dicusting things that were also overheard by most in the hall at the court house , I am shocked this woman has a law degree. I would not let her represent my dog! This woman should be investigated by tha bar association
