Ailie was straigthtfoward about explaining the process, highlighting the common law on divorces and separation while being a great listener for what my wife and I were trying to accomplish amicably. The process was super efficient, communication was great and it was fairly quick as well. I highly recommend Ailie.
Ailie was very professional, compassionate and thorough in her review of my separation agreement my wife and I made with a Divorce Mediator. She took the time to understand my unique situation. Through her efforts and assertiveness, Ailie was able to ensure my wife and I reached fair and equitable terms. I would highly recommend Ms. Silbert.
My divorce was non-contentious and so I thought that I would not need a lawyer. In the end, the whole administrative process was very difficult to navigate. As a result, I hired Ailie and I don’t regret it. She was open, understanding, and supportive throughout the divorce. At a time when communication with my ex-partner was challenging, Ailie’s strong mediation skills proved to be essential for making the divorce as smooth as possible. She is amazing.
Ailie is the very best and I recommend her without any reservations. She is professional, compassionate, strategic, and reassuring—all of the things you want from a good lawyer. She let's you set the tone and the pace of your engagement and meets you where you are at, so you always feel in control of the process. I can't recommend Ailie enough.
I was researching lawyers for my prenup and a friend recommended me to Ailie Silbert. I found it reassuring that she is on the board of the family and divorce mediation counsel. I went into my prenup process pretty clueless. Ailie was very informative and educated me on the matter. She helped me delicately broach the prenup topic with my partner. The prenup got contentious at times between my partner and I. Ailie held my hand during these challenging times. She was consummate professional despite dealing with the inappropriate demands of the opposing counsel. Most importantly, she tactfully advocated for the terms I needed. I would highly recommend her. My wife & I are happily married as of this past Friday.
Ailie was so professional yet comforting during my difficult divorce. She lead me through the process, handled all the correspondence, and billed me fairly. It was scary to trust a stranger during such an intimate and bewildering experience, and I'm so glad she deserved my trust completely. She knew how to counsel me when I was unsure what I wanted, and was my fierce advocate when it came to dealing with my estranged husband's attorney. She also consulted with an immigration attorney when that was needed, and quickly got a handle on that aspect of my case. Ailie came highly recommended to me by a former attorney who employed her, who wasn't able to take me on. I'm so glad it turned out that way and I really didn't have to worry about any legal papers or decisions once I hired Ailie, which was such a relief during that time.
Ms. Silbert was my review attorney when my first marriage ended. She was very supportive and accommodating. I was impressed with her professionalism and decided to seek her guidance when going through the pre-nup process for my second marriage. Everything was completed on time without any issues.
Working with Ailie to craft the divorce papers was a pleasant and quick experience. She was thorough with her explanation of the legal process and what to expect after filing.
Ailie was helpful, informative, and thorough from beginning to end.I would absolutely recommend her for any couple in need of a divorce lawyer.
My experience with Ailie was wonderful. She is professional, extremely knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor.( which to me was my saving grace during an unpleasant divorce.) I always felt Ailie answered my questions and addressed my concerns quickly and had my best interest at heart. She is a fantastic lawyer, you won’t be disappointed.
