Divorce can be emotionally, financially and legally complicated, and it's not always easy to know what to expect from the process. With extensive experience in all areas of matrimonial law, the attorneys at Hawthorne & Vesper, PLLC, provide individuals and couples with practical, attentive guidance throughout the divorce process.
A divorce is challenging under any circumstance, but what many think will be the hardest part can sometimes be the easiest. When both people admit that a marriage is over and it is time to divorce, the rest of the road looks a lot less difficult. This is how an uncontested divorce starts. However, even when both people make the responsible, reasonable admission that a relationship is over, there is still some important work.
Will you receive spousal support and maintenance after divorce? Will you receive the child support you need to fully provide for your family? Understanding how support orders fit into your divorce settlement can be essential in planning for your financial future. The attorneys at Hawthorne & Vesper, PLLC, work with men and women in the Buffalo area throughout the divorce process.
Divorce or a breakup between parents can be especially hard on children. Even if everyone agrees that it's important to do what is in the child's best interest, that does not make these decisions any less emotional. That is why it is important to seek help from experienced lawyers who understand what you are going through during this difficult time.

I had the pleasure of being counseled by Kaitlyn Hoerner this past year during a very difficult custody battle. I was previously represented by a very experienced attorney in my previous custody battle and I felt this time around my representation was much more "on the ball". My attorney was passionate, engaged and immediately available for questions via email or text.
I had a rough situation and I truly expected not much in success, but I was dead wrong. Even when I started to lose faith, my attorney never gave up. I had the attorney for my child, the assessor, and even my daughter's educator

I had the pleasure of working with Hawthorne and Vesper's assosiate lawyer Kaitlyn H. She was absolutely wonderful and professional as it gets. She is young but don't be doubtful one bit, she knows her stuff! I am so happy with the services and outcome of my family court battle. She is determined, involved, intelligent, and strategic. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer.

I used Ms. Hawthorne in a horrible custody battle that lasted years, not her fault. She was always available to answer questions and did not back down from what was right. She also returns phone calls, which is more than I can say for most attorneys. She is very professional and her staff is amazing too.

This firm is as professional as it gets. There was one firm that was AS GOOD,which unfortunately is no longer. Honest, diligent, tentative and detail oriented. What Ive been looking for. I will recommend to all those who ask me if I know an atrorney. You want to bring a fight? Bring it with them.

I had a great experience working with Tina Hawthorne for my divorce. She worked quickly and diligently to get my matter resolved and put me at ease while doing it. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to family law and worked hard to get me what I wanted. Highly recommend!

Tina is extremely bright, loyal, trustworthy and diligent to do everything possible to fight for the best for me and my kids. She is attentive and very detail-oriented (with an incredible memory- how does she do that with a hundred cases?). We have had ups and downs in court, however she has continually looked through my lense, persisted and remained loyal in numerous contexts. She has found unique and clever ways to apply case law in order to boldly bring out the worst in the opposition, ultimately showing true colors. Tina WILL be realistic and won’t promise you something she cannot provide

Absolutely horrible lawyers! Jessica worked very hard with the opposing side instead of fighting for my son. She blind sided me and I overheard the conversation between her and the other attorney. She helped turn my son over to a drug abuser and child abuser. She lied several times and left me consulting other attorneys the night before trial who all told me my problem is her and they were 100% correct. Please go to STOP UNETHICAL LAWYERS PAGE ON FB to post your experience with this horrible lawyer. I will be going public soon and I am in the process of writing a book. STOP and find a lawyer who
