I cannot thank Amy enough. After a terrible breakup, Amy helped me sort out selling a jointly-owned home and navigated a pet ownership dispute with my ex. She figured out what to do at every twist and turn and helped ease my anxiety during the most stressful experience of my life (in the end, the home was sold, finances were sorted, and I was able to keep the dog). If you are looking for someone who is a great attorney, knows how to listen, and who truly cares then look no further than Amy!
Amy Saunders answered my phone call quickly on a weekend and went right to work to advise me on POA issues and how to dismiss a divorce. I highly recommend Amy Saunders for dealing with my issue quickly and skillfully.
I am a father who has been engaged in a custody dispute and divorce. I was in need of an attorney on short notice and when I called Amy’s practice to ask for a consultation it was Amy who answered. Amy gave me same-day counsel in person in the evening! I cannot express how professional and knowledgeable Amy has been during my crisis. Amy, Catherine, and Amanda operated as a team and provided outstanding guidance and direction when I needed it most. They seem to work around the clock and take phone calls and reply to emails very quickly. In the worst time of my life they provided me with a degree of emotional stability through their legal diligence and support. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone going through a divorce or custody dispute. I cannot thank you enough Amy, Catherine, and Amanda!
Amy gave me great support and advice in my separation. She was patient with me and gave great suggestions. I felt 100% confident that I was going to get all I felt I needed in my separation agreement.
Amy came highly recommended to me. I was immediately impressed by her upon our initial meeting. She clearly explained the divorce process and was very reassuring that she would do her best to make my case go as smoothly as possible. She always responded promptly to any questions I had. My ex-husband could not afford an attorney and he was very difficult to deal with, but Amy handled everything with the uttermost professionalism despite his numerous attempts to draw out the case and innapropriate behavior. She drew up a fair agreement and I couldn't be more pleased with the legal services she provided.
Amy Saunders is an excellent attorney. She takes the time to understand your situation and provide clear honest direction. Going through any court process can be difficult, nerve-racking and confusing but Amy explains everything clearly and fights for what is right. For me, another one of her greatest attributes is her ability to remain human through the process! She shows that she cares for her clients and will put in the extra work to make sure you are comfortable every step of the way.
Amy was a great lawyer, very knowledgeable and she answered all my questions. She fought for everything I wanted and also got me me everything I was entitled too. Talking to her was very easy, almost like I knew her always. My divorce was heartbreaking, but with Amy's help and concern, It made things a little easier.
Amy is well balanced and represents a tremendous value in legal representation. Amy has just the right amount of knowledge and experience. She knows the law, but more importantly she knows what the likely outcomes will be. Amy also knows the people – court clerks, judges, and attorneys. Amy has the right temperament. She can be tough and unwavering, but also compassionate and understanding. During my “15 months with Amy” I would sometimes become frustrated with the drawn-out court process/schedule, the stonewalling by the other side and their unreasonable demands. During these times I would vent, and occasionally (regrettably and unfairly) blame Amy. She would calmly listen as a therapist would. She would then reassure me. Amy is available and accessible. She readily communicates via phone, text, email or in-person. I’ve communicated with her as early as 7am and as late as 10pm – including weekends! Amy is flexible. I have met her at restaurants, a previous home she owned and at her office. Amy offers solid advice, but is willing to listen to alternatives. She explains the pros and cons. Even when she did not agree with a particular course of action I had chosen, she still passionately represented my position. Lastly, Amy’s fees are extremely reasonable. This is due in large part because she generally does not charge fees for phone calls, texts, or emails. As I said in the beginning, Amy represents a tremendous value in legal representation. My case ended yesterday. And I am relieved. Thank You, Amy!
My divorce was very complicated, long, drawn-out and frustrating to say the very least. It was by far the hardest time in my left and most difficult thing I have been through thus far. Amy was wonderful, always supportive and responded to any and all concerns as soon as she could. She was my lawyer, but at many times a concerned friend giving general advice.
I had been in contact with Amy about my son and when the time came to go to court, I contacted her with one week notice of my court date, one week before christmas! She was able to help me with custody and supported me through the entire process. I left the courthouse speehless because i was so happy with how things went! I definitely could not have done it without her. She is approachable, knowledgeable, down to earth and understanding. Thank you so much, Amy!!
