Attorney Melissa is truly a great advocate for her clients and has been a Godsend. From the time in met her the first time until now, she has been wonderful. Divorce is very hard and she was there every step of the way. She called back very fast when I had questions and concerns, even later in the evening apparently when she was still working. She and her team were very prompt, courteous, and made a tough experience tolerable with her experience, understanding, and empathy. I think the most impressive thing, other than her ability, is that she makes you feel like you are her only client and spends the time working on your individual case. She laid out a great strategy the first time I met her, and everything happened like she said it would. I have and will continue to recommend her to my friends and family.
Handled my divorce case with excellent and professional service.
Melissa Schwartz represented my daughter in a custody case for her young daughter a few years back. Hands down, she is the best Attorney out there. She gathered pertinent information, educated my daughter on what to expect, how to present herself, etc. She prepared my daughter in every way prior to the Court Date. Ms. Schwartz was fully prepared to represent my daughter and WON the case. I have experienced and seen other attorneys in the past that represented people by showing up unprepared. You will never see this happen with Melissa Schwartz. I highly recommend her!
Attorney Melissa Schwartz was professional, helpful, effective, and available during my divorce proceedings last year. Despite a very difficult and complicated process, she was always available via phone or email and addressed my concerns promptly. She helped fight for me so that I retained joint custody of my son, and so that I was given a fair breakdown of our assets. She was supportive, and took the time to get to know me and advocate for me and my rights. Her entire office and staff was professional, and exceptional in my representation, and throughout the proceedings became like a second family. I could not have wished for a better team during this difficult time.
Melissa Schwartz settled my case for me and I was extremely pleased with the results. She offered personal and prompt service. She sincerely cares about her clients and I felt like she treated me like a family member. I would recommend her to my friends and family.
She was very personable with me !! Helped me through a very tough time in my life !! My case never really made it to court . That's because she took care of business! ! I would highly recommend her to anyone. Hope you read this, Melissa. Thank you, again. Alan
I heard Melissa about a year ago. She was very helpful with anything I needed. I would definitely recommend her for anybody with a difficult divorce. She is available about 90% of the time personally. She is a bit pricey but well worth every penny.
