My sister-in-law went with me to my consultation. I had done research and made appointments with a few lawyers. When we left Alison's office we talked in the car and both said "She's the one." I have been so grateful for her work on my case. She has an excellent recall for the information you discuss with her. You know she really listened. She's compassionate but straightforward and decisive. She finds out what you want, gives you advice and then acts in your interest. My divorce isn't final yet but I have full confidence I'll be satisfied with a fair and just conclusion.
Alison is an amazing attorney. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone knowledgeable and precise. 5 stars!
I am so thankful Alison represented my grandson in a custody case for our son. I believe it went well because of her representation. Alison is a hard-working, attentive, caring, kind, and honest person. Her character precedes her. The person whom she represents she sincerely is concerned about. Alison is a lawyer you want on your team backing you with whatever your situation may be. She will work her hardest to help you with your case. I can't say thank you enough for all she did to help our son to get sole custody of our grandson. Our grandson is happy and safe now! Thank you, Alison!
So grateful for Alison during my custody battle. She is so dedicated to her work and she truly cared about my case. She made my situation a lot easier having her as my attorney. She always responded, was very honest, and she helped me beyond belief. She’s amazing . Thank you for everything Alison !
Alison has been a breath of fresh air for me as I try to navigate through a divorce I do not want. Alison has been honest and straight forward with me from the beginning of this unwanted journey. She has a tough but soft touch, caring and compassionate. I believe Alison truly cares about me and is fighting for what is best for me and my future. I would not hesitate to recommend Alison to anyone, she is A+ in my book.
Alison has been fabulous helping me through the process of amending my custody order and filing for child support. She is always available and responds to questions right away. She took the time to get to know me and my case which helped to make the uncomfortable situation so much more bearable. I really felt like she had my back:)
I haven't finalized my divorce yet but Alison has been there for me every step of the way. She is making sure that everything is in my best interest and I am confident that she will take good care of me until this is over.
I went through a custody battle and through my own research I kept hearing people to contact Alison Chamberlain. After reaching out to her, and having a discussing the particulars of my situation, she clearly showed her values as an individual. I couldn’t do anything but speak great things of Ms. Chamberlain. I felt as if she made my case her top priority. With that I am now able to be the fully active father I always wanted to be.
She was very helpful with everything for our custody situation that was not a typical situation. She is also helping us with the adoption process as well! We couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer! She is amazing and so down to earth, we just love her!
Alison made what was probably one of the most stressful things in my life, a custody case with my son, so much easier to handle. Alison always responded to my emails and concerns within one day, most of the time almost immediately. She made sure that my sons needs were met and did not let me crumble under the pressure to settle. I cannot say enough about her as an Attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone having family court issues.
