Lee Marlow recently represented me in my divorce and I am truly satisfied with his work. I found Lee by interviewing attorneys and reading reviews online. After interviewing Lee, there was no question that I had found the right guy. He is extremely competent, honest and straightforward. He was responsive to all my questions and you will not find another attorney who can outwork or outflank him. I remember asking Lee what my wife's lawyer would say when they found out who was representing me. He said they would say I had one hell of a lawyer. He was right! Choosing Lee is probably your best option.

My divorce was a long very expensive venture that taught me a lot that hopefully someone else can benefit from. When we first started down that road to divorce, I thought that my EX and I could get along and mutually negotiate the deal through a mediator. We paid the mediator about $4k, but in the end they messed up all the paperwork with the court and we were further behind than when we started. I had given my Ex all our savings during those mediations and without council, I moved out of the house and was living in my vehicle trying to keep myself our of debt.. My EX in the meantime was racking up the credit cards and took all our savings and got an 'expensive' attorney, while I got an attorney (for about $4k) who I thought could finish off the last paperwork and we would be done.. Big mistake on my part, I showed up at the first court date with little to no preparation or counsel from my attorney. That first court date, my financial affidavit (which my attorney completed at 3am the night before) showed very little expense and only income, therefore the court awarded ALL the money I was bringing home to my EX leaving nothing remaining for me. I was truly homeless and with all my money going to my EX. This first cheap attorney pressured me to sign those documents with the understanding that it would only be for a couple months until it was straightened out.. Several months later going deeper and deeper into debt, COVID hit and the court stopped seeing anyone. In that time I interviewed several attorneys and knew whatever I spent would be a good investment based on how quickly I was being buried financially. From my research on AVVO.com, and the follow up interviews, Lee Marlow was clearly THE BEST. Lee had me take some ownership by counseling me as I completed my own Financial Affidavit. Lee was very professional and knows everything to best represent his client. My advise to you is please don't do what I did originally and think you're saving any money by just getting it done. It cost me much more in the end, but I'm so glad I found Lee. He got me out of the mess with his tremendous knowledge and outstanding skills in negotiations. I hope to never have to do this sort of thing again, but if I did, and I was in Connecticut, I hope Lee is still practicing, because he is THE ONE. Lee got me FREE!

Not surprisingly, I found divorce to be an incredibly painful process, but I am so glad that I had Lee Marlow in my corner. Not only was he unfailingly professional and exceedingly competent, but he also provided emotional support and compassion when I needed it. I also appreciated how available and accessible he was to me despite both of our demanding schedules. I have already recommended him to multiple people.

I would highly recommend Attorney Lee Marlow. Lee took the time from the beginning to understand my unique situation and he supported and advised me accordingly to help me attain the goal which I had for myself and my children during my proceedings. Retaining Lee for my proceedings was easily the best decision I made. His expertise in matrimonial law and child custody proved to be very valuable during my complicated custody case. He possesses the ability to educate his clients during their proceedings. This makes complex issues, especially surrounding custody disputes, more easy to understand. It helps to make a very stressful and uncertain time more manageable for his clients. My custody case was a long process, Lee never lost focus on what needed to be done and was 100% committed to what truly was in the best interest of my children. In addition, Lee conducts himself in the very highest professional manner, and he always counsels his clients in this manner as well. Lee was always available during my proceedings and everything he handled was prompt and detailed oriented. The lines of communication between him and I were more than I could ever ask for. My case almost went to trial for not only the custody of my children but for the financials as well. Lee took the appropriate steps to put myself in a position to be successful at trial if needed. However, due to his persistent and superior negotiation skills and again his ability to consult with his clients on what is in their best interest, we were able to avoid a trial while still attaining every custody and financial goal which I had set at the beginning of my proceedings. Lee is an attorney who takes the time to understand his clients and he embraces what they are fighting for. It was very important for me to have this from my attorney. Lee provided this for me during this entire process, and he delivered in the end with a result that put myself and my children in a very favorable situation for the future.

I was able to engage Lee Marlow as my divorce attorney and it was, and continues to be, one of the best decisions I've ever made. A divorce is a horrible experience for everyone involved and mine was no exception. I had originally decided to represent myself but soon discovered that was a mistake. As a man, and the main bread winner in the family, I quickly realized that the courts and family services (Child Custody) are geared towards protecting the interests of women, or perhaps more specifically, the spouse with the weaker financial situation. When people go down the road of divorce, they seriously have no idea what they're getting themselves into. I hired Lee as my attorney and he was able to guide me through the process with expertise & professionalism. My divorce actually went all the way to trial which included a child custody dispute. We had to take it to a trial because I could not agree to the outrageous demands of my ex-wife, which would have severely limited my time with our daughter and would have put me in a very difficult financial situation. Lee was professional and I was proud to go into a court room with him as my representative. That may not seem like much, but when your divorce gets ugly, it means a whole lot. Court rooms appreciate people like Lee because he knows what he's doing and he doesn't bring the ugliness of divorce into a court room. There are plenty of (scumbag) attorneys out there, willing to stoop to dishonest levels, causing all types of controversy and confusing the issues at hand. Lee's professionalism stands above that garbage which allows his clients to be seen in a positive light. In my opinion, Lee performed his best services in the last 5 minutes of the trial in his closing arguments to the judge. He was able to clearly summarize my position with a professional upstanding approach. He was also able to clearly summarize the malicious intent of my ex-wife that was designed to inflict long-lasting pain on me, which would in turn, hurt our daughter as well. The end result was better than either Lee or myself could have expected. When the judge read the verdict, and added his own personal comments, it became very clear that Lee's professionalism and upstanding demeanor in the court room carried much more weight than the negative, dishonest approach, that was used by the opposing attorney and my ex-wife. I walked out of that court room with opportunity and a future for both me and my daughter. Years later I'm still smiling and have been able to move on with my life. I highly recommend Lee Marlow as an attorney. Scott

Lee Marlow represented me in a post-judgment hearing, and he aced an extremely sensitive, difficult situation with supreme professionalism, preparedness and efficiency. From the first time I met him, I had complete confidence in his expertise, but even so, the keen, diplomatic, firm skills with which he handled my case exceeded any performance--and outcome--I could have hoped for. I'm indebted. He's a star. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Lee came highly recommended to me. I soon agreed that he is an expert in his field. Divorce is a difficult issue that comes with a mix of emotions. Lee stays on task with kindness, intelligence and diligence. His actions took my case swiftly to a quality resolution for both me and my daughter. You can also rest assured that he's not in it for the dollars. Lee was careful about his time and my needs. Working with Lee was worth every penny. I highly recommend him as a first choice for any divorce or parenting agreement matters.

Not only was he unfailingly professional and exceedingly competent, but he also provided emotional support and compassion when I needed it. I also appreciated how available and accessible he was to me despite both of our demanding schedules. I have already recommended him to multiple people.

I would highly recommend Attorney Lee Marlow. Lee took the time from the beginning to understand my unique situation and he supported and advised me accordingly to help me attain the goal which I had for myself and my children during my proceedings. Retaining Lee for my proceedings was easily the best decision I made. His expertise in matrimonial law and child custody proved to be very valuable during my complicated custody case. He possesses the ability to educate his clients during their proceedings. This makes complex issues, especially surrounding custody disputes, more easy to understand. It helps to make a very stressful and uncertain time more manageable for his clients. My custody case was a long process, Lee never lost focus on what needed to be done and was 100% committed to what truly was in the best interest of my children. In addition, Lee conducts himself in the very highest professional manner, and he always counsels his clients in this manner as well. Lee was always available during my proceedings and everything he handled was prompt and detailed oriented. The lines of communication between him and I were more than I could ever ask for. My case almost went to trial for not only the custody of my children but for the financials as well. Lee took the appropriate steps to put myself in a position to be successful at trial if needed. However, due to his persistent and superior negotiation skills and again his ability to consult with his clients on what is in their best interest, we were able to avoid a trial while still attaining every custody and financial goal which I had set at the beginning of my proceedings. Lee is an attorney who takes the time to understand his clients and he embraces what they are fighting for. It was very important for me to have this from my attorney. Lee provided this for me during this entire process, and he delivered in the end with a result that put myself and my children in a very favorable situation for the future.

I was able to engage Lee Marlow as my divorce attorney and it was, and continues to be, one of the best decisions I've ever made. A divorce is a horrible experience for everyone involved and mine was no exception. I had originally decided to represent myself but soon discovered that was a mistake. As a man, and the main bread winner in the family, I quickly realized that the courts and family services (Child Custody) are geared towards protecting the interests of women, or perhaps more specifically, the spouse with the weaker financial situation. When people go down the road of divorce, they seriously have no idea what they're getting themselves into. I hired Lee as my attorney and he was able to guide me through the process with expertise & professionalism. My divorce actually went all the way to trial which included a child custody dispute. We had to take it to a trial because I could not agree to the outrageous demands of my ex-wife, which would have severely limited my time with our daughter and would have put me in a very difficult financial situation. Lee was professional and I was proud to go into a court room with him as my representative. That may not seem like much, but when your divorce gets ugly, it means a whole lot. Court rooms appreciate people like Lee because he knows what he's doing and he doesn't bring the ugliness of divorce into a court room. There are plenty of (scumbag) attorneys out there, willing to stoop to dishonest levels, causing all types of controversy and confusing the issues at hand. Lee's professionalism stands above that garbage which allows his clients to be seen in a positive light. In my opinion, Lee performed his best services in the last 5 minutes of the trial in his closing arguments to the judge. He was able to clearly summarize my position with a professional upstanding approach. He was also able to clearly summarize the malicious intent of my ex-wife that was designed to inflict long-lasting pain on me, which would in turn, hurt our daughter as well. The end result was better than either Lee or myself could have expected. When the judge read the verdict, and added his own personal comments, it became very clear that Lee's professionalism and upstanding demeanor in the court room carried much more weight than the negative, dishonest approach, that was used by the opposing attorney and my ex-wife. I walked out of that court room with opportunity and a future for both me and my daughter. Years later I'm still smiling and have been able to move on with my life. I highly recommend Lee Marlow as an attorney. Scott

Very professional. Seasoned, experienced, doesn't rest on his laurels. Will tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear.

Lee Marlow represented me in a post-judgment hearing, and he aced an extremely sensitive, difficult situation with supreme professionalism, preparedness and efficiency. From the first time I met him, I had complete confidence in his expertise, but even so, the keen, diplomatic, firm skills with which he handled my case exceeded any performance--and outcome--I could have hoped for. I'm indebted. He's a star. I can't recommend him highly enough.

I actually switched to Attorney Marlow to handle very difficult post judgment proceedings and he handled the job about as competently and smoothly as possible. He has a wonderful knowledge of family law and is very practical in its application, which makes it very comforting to his clients.I highly recommend his services.

Lee came highly recommended to me. I soon agreed that he is an expert in his field. Divorce is a difficult issue that comes with a mix of emotions. Lee stays on task with kindness, intelligence and diligence. His actions took my case swiftly to a quality resolution for both me and my daughter. You can also rest assured that he's not in it for the dollars. Lee was careful about his time and my needs. Working with Lee was worth every penny. I highly recommend him as a first choice for any divorce or parenting agreement matters.
