I started working with Alanna toward the beginning of this year and I wanted you to know how helpful she has been during my divorce. She has the perfect balance of assertiveness and empathy. She helped to bring my contested divorce to an uncontested one. Our hearing was this morning and I'm honestly going to miss working with her. I don't think many people will say they will miss their divorce attorney but she's become part of my support system.

As a person, Melissa was very nice initially. As a divorce attorney, she’s the worst I’ve experienced after experiencing 5 total between my ex and I. Melissa didn’t incorporate a stipulation for my children’s college funds into my final divorce decree which is malpractice ...among countless other issues. I asked her to return some of her attorneys fees because this was her error - she refused and was beyond rude when I asked.

Melissa is a hard-working, personable attorney who helps her clients understand legal documents and advocates on their behalf. She helped me review legal documents, informed me of my legal rights, and suggested areas for follow-up. I felt comfortable with the entire process thanks to Melissa's warm demeanor and her ability to explain information clearly. I would use her for any legal services in the future without hesitation - she is a top-notch attorney!

Melissa and her team helped us with our estate planning. She was super responsive, setting up an initial call within 24 hours to talk us through the process. Everything was done efficiently and remotely (covid!) with clear templates, easy to follow answers to our questions, and fast turn around on the documentation. And the team showed patience as we took our time to review a number of the documents.
Thank you Levine-Piro for making this such an easy process for us!
