I've known Cara Boyanowski for over ten years, in two capacities. One as a fellow Family Law Practitioner and two in my role as a Custody Conciliator. In both those capacities, I found her knowledgeable and fair, while still maintaining a friendly demeanor.

We secured Cara to assist in a miscellaneous civil proceeding and found her to be both very professional and personable in all our dealings. We were also pleasantly surprised at her level of prompt turn-around to our questions with numerous follow-ups. She has become our legal provider of choice and will absolutely seek out her counsel in the future with any of our legal needs. We highly recommend attorney Cara Boyanowski.

Cara has represented me in my child custody hearings. She also helped me work through my divorce proceedings. She has always been honest and upfront with me about ways to come to the best resolution for me and my son. She is very accessible and has gone above and beyond to help. I would recommend her to anyone who needs representation in these types of matters. She cares.

Having Cara represent you in ANY family matter will arm you with various advantages. Cara's years in Family Law show with every conversation you have with her as a client. There is not an avenue for discussion that Cara does not come prepared for, and explain possible outcomes to consider. Her understanding of procedure compared to other attorneys in the field can be advantageous. She speaks as if she is taking every step with you along what can be very difficult, confusing, frustrating and sometimes downright infuriating circumstances with a genuine care and concern for your situation. Her professionalism when communicating with opposing counsel represents consistent ethical standards. When it comes to matters you hold as high as your children in your life, you cannot afford to take shortcuts on hiring a competent lawyer to obtain the results as closely desirable as possible with the current court system's shortcomings. Cara is that attorney.

Cara is a top notch attorney who is dedicated to her clients needs. Her work is thorough and she invests the time to ensure her clients understand the legal process. She greatly assisted us in long term planning for our family's future. Cara was also sensitive and compassionate to our unquie needs. We truly appreciated her quick follow up to all of our questions and that she prepared us for what to expect along the way. Cara is an outstanding professional and without reservation my family and I highly recommend her services.

Cara is representing me in my divorce and custody case. I can count on her to help me every step of the way. She has a very caring nature that makes it easier for me to talk with her and work through this process. It was such a great feeling to have her fighting for me in the courthouse.

Cara is an excellent attorney. She tells you the truth to the best of her knowledge, good or bad. We have hired her to represent us in a divorce and child custody case. She is always prepared when talking to us or to the opposing counsel, or the judge. She anticipates questions and has the answers ready. She always is one step ahead of opposing counsel. If we have any questions she always answers them as quickly and thoroughly as possible. If we have an idea, she listens, then agrees or disagrees with an explanation of why. She always asks our opinions of how to handle different situations. We have always felt we were part of the process, not just spectators. Cara is experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate. She knows how emotional we are, and how difficult it is for us to rationalize things, and she tells us not to worry, she has our backs. We have put our lives in her hands, and I am confident that Cara is the best attorney for us.

Attorney Boyanowksi represented me throughout my divorce proceedings. It was an exceedingly difficult time in my life and I could not have asked for a better attorney. What should have been completed in 6 months ended up taking over 2 years. Cara was always available to answer my endless questions through e-mail or by phone. She was very good at helping me remove the emotion from this time and focus on the facts. Her knowledge and skill were so impressive. She explained every step of the proceedings thoroughly and was always willing to clarify. When we ended up having to go to trial she proved herself a formidable presence in the courtroom as well. Every aspect of my divorce was handled in a timely, professional, compassionate manner and I could not have been more thrilled with the results. She is a very skilled attorney and a wonderful person. I just can't say enough about the role she played in my life during this very difficult time.

Cara has represented me for almost 2 years in a Divorce proceeding. I selected her because of her excellent track record and experience level. As expected, she has demonstrated high-level knowledge of PA law and performs every action with integrity. On several occasions, opposing counsel has misfiled paperwork and misunderstood the law. Cara is quick to point out those errors and determine how we should proceed. She has been clear and concise from the first time I met with her, and serves as a terrific resource for me during this time of need. I am very confident in her suggestions and advice. Furthermore, Cara is a very caring individual who listens & empathizes. She genuinely wants the best for me and my children and often inquires as to how we are doing. For me, this is "icing on the cake," and very appreciated. As a result of her concern, she is very thorough in requesting documentation to support our position. My case will be concluded very soon. Regardless of outcome, I know that we have worked together to present the best case we possibly can. What more could a client ask for?

Cara was very knowledgeable in her field. She helped make the process as smooth as divorce can be. But what was most important, is that I never felt like a number or a case. She always spoke with me like I mattered and when going through a divorce this is not something that I felt very often. I trust Cara completely and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney that truly cares about her clients.
