About
My main area of practice includes all aspects of Family Law, including divorce, custody, modifications and litigation. I treat each case as if it were my own and focus on getting the best possible results for my clients. My background includes graduation from Framingham State University, cum laude, with a bachelor of arts degree. I next attended the University of Pennsylvania for graduate studies. I then attended New England School of Law, where I received my Juris Doctorate, cum laude, in 1989. I was awarded New England scholar status. Recognizing the need to give each case individual attention I co-founded my law firm Karpenski & Schmelkin, LLC, where we give every case our individual attention and priority.

I had a great consult with attorney Karpensky. She is very sharp and immediately saw the issues that could potentially come up from the opposite side without even me bringing up too much detail. I talked to several attorneys and I can say without hesitation, she has a great mind for strategy. Even in the initial consult, she provided amazing strategic advice! From minute one she was completely on my side and ready to get to work. Ann expressed compassion to my case and paid attention to every small detail. She was able to find answers right on the spot and if she did not know a particular answer right away, she looked it up right then. Immediately! Attorney Karpensky is confident, knowledgeable, and I should admit her pricing is very fair. Her consult was very generous and she welcomed questions. With her experience and knowledge she is definitely a gem! I had a friend recommend her as an attorney to me. She handled her divorce brilliantly. Ann was recommended as well as a very hardworking, responsive, and honest professional, who negotiates well and has your best interest in mind. I definitely recommend her.
After a friend referred me to hire Ann Karpenski to represent me for my divorce, I read the reviews and did my research. My now ex wife is also an Attorney so I needed a Top Gun, not just another divorce Attorney. The entire process was very stressful for me--the thought of court, battling at trial, the waiting periods, etc. It's not easy putting your future life in someone's hands and at the mercy of the court. Enter Ann. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and put me at ease during the toughest times. The stress became so high at times, i found myself out of line. Ann understood and continued to do her job. She made me feel very comfortable; like a great mom taking care of her kids. For those of you doing your research to find an Attorney for an upcoming divorce, don't bother, I've already did that for weeks. Ann is the one to choose.
Howard brought Ann into my divorce case from hell which dragged on over several years. And I am so very glad to have had Ann stand by me during this time. Ann was very attentive to my needs and what I wanted to happen with my case. Ann offered invaluable advice, took meticulous notes during our meetings and saved me from myself during trial. Ann brought a unique female perspective. An example, Ann told me not to cross my arms in court as that suggested defensive body language and might be picked up by the judge. Ann dealt with opposing counsel's unreasonable tactics respectfully, successfully and tactfully. Ann also help negotiated the term of the settlement agreement paying attention to those devils of the details.
From the moment that I met Attorney Breau-Karpenski, I was put at ease. I though that I had a very difficult and emotional case, yet Ann did not hesitate and immediately inspired my confidence in myself and in her. I was unsure of myself and confused as to what the best actions were for me to take and Ann made me feel confident and comfortable through out the entire process. She explained every step to me, and was always encouraging and supportive. She inspired me to ask for and she got exactly what I needed and deserved. She and everyone in her office worked tirelessly on my case and are a great team. I honestly do not think that I would be in the positive financial or emotion position I am without her efforts. I can not recommend her highly enough.
Atty Karpenski was very aggressive while working to settle my divorce. She made sure that I received a good settlement and that my interests as well as my childrens' interests are protected in the future. She was very responsive and patient while I was very emotional during an extremely difficult divorce.
From the moment I met Ann, I knew she would work to get what I needed done ~quickly and efficiently. Ann kept the process of mediation at a pace that enabled the final divorce process to be completed within 12 weeks, to my highest satisfaction. Ann kept the process simple and incremental, so the legal process wasn't so overwhelming. I would highly recommend this attorney to anyone.
My divorce case was so messy I didn't even know where to begin. From the second I met Ann she put me at ease and took care of everything. I truly felt like her only client ! She got me everything I wanted including my life back!
