When I first called Linda and spoke to her I was so relieved. Filing for divorce was not an easy step, but our first conversation was relaxed and informative. Throughout the process, Linda and her staff made the emotionally charged time easy for me to maneuver. And Linda's legal advice was spot on. I cannot recommend Linda and her staff enough.

Linda guided me through the best ways to get the most parenting time with my child, from being an alienated child to a healthy and loving kid who also enjoys and loves to spend the most time with me as a non-custodial parent.
Linda is professional, honest, tells you the truth even if you don't like it which is very appreciated, very patient, understands what you are going through, does not see you as another client, but as a human being, she is always available, helpful and clear, being in court is always expensive but Linda makes it worth it, I would never put a price to the time my son and I

My rating probably won't mean much as Linda seems like she may retire soon and doesn't care much to fully listen before giving her opinion. After trying to determine if remediating my divorce decree was necessary, I walked out no more knowledgeable than when I walked into her poorly arranged office and conference room. I also found two incidences to be strange: When I went to pay her she asked for my ID because I hadn't signed my card, which made me feel like a criminal. She also wanted to know my education level, which may be typical; however, she did not ask what I did for a living, only my ex
