Regan is incredibly professional and easy to work with. I enjoyed her on a child support issue I needed help with. She was fantastic and supportive throughout. We were able to settle the case without going to court.

Regan was very knowledgeable and supportive during my life changing event. She explained the divorce process in terms I could understand, and kept me up to speed every step of the way. She was always right to the point and concerned about my time and billing. There was never a surprise at what I was being charged. She was good at telling me what I needed to get done and used her experience to say what she expected from opposing counsel. She took the time to get to know my personal situation. Fortunately, I did not have to go to trial, but I felt very confident if she would have represented me in court. She’s very compassionate and understands this is a very rough event in a person’s life. I highly recommend her.

Regan recently represented me in a civil dispute. I found her to be very professIonal, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to resolving my case to my satisfaction. She is very personable, understanding, and communicates well.

Regan was fantastic to work with up to and during my hearing. She did not sugar coat anything and kept me apprised of the possibility I would have to pay money to my ex-wife. Regan was very thorough, organized and well spoken in the courtroom. Based on the facts presented, she was able to keep her argument and flow of ideas cohesive and logically organized. I will definitely use Regan for all matters related to my ex-wife in the future.

Regan helped me win a custody/divorce trial. I hired her only a couple weeks before the first trial date, and she took on my case with confidence. With such little time, Regan was able to get everything accomplished and was so organized she was able to make the process more smoothly. Regan offered insight and aligned it with my position on what I wanted out of the divorce and custody. She explained all possible situations and outcomes and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. i hired Regan based on her reviews, and I am glad because she is everything everyone says on here! Thank you so much Regan, you truly are an amazing lawyer, and I wish you the best!

After many years with no parenting plan in place, I decided to pursue primary custody of my daughter - a considerable change from the 50/50 custody agreement we had been working with. For my immediate and extended family as well as that of my daughter's mother, pursuing a legal case was difficult and emotional, but had become necessary for safety reasons. The case only last five months and was surprisingly easier than I anticipated it would be. That was mainly because Regan was very thorough in her work, quick to update me on changes and filings that pertained to the case, and an expert in guiding me on my options. If I ever find myself needing representation again, I wouldn't hesitate to hire Regan. Her care in my case, and her focus on helping us achieve a solution focused on what was best for the child involved made the difficult experience easier.

I needed a family law attorney for a custody and child support case. I had searched MANY profiles on Avvo and Regan's stood out to me with how many things she's done and continues to do for the community. I got a sense that she really cares about her clients and I was absolutely correct. From the consultation to the end she was just as invested in the case as if it were her children. During the consultation she listened very closely, took notes. In the beginning of the case after only talking with me a few times she remembered details that I thought for sure I would have to remind her of. Not with Regan. My case was a unique one and even with all my uniqueness she handled everything very professionally and knew what to do in order for things to go in our favor. She stayed in constant communication with me, replied very quickly to my emails and was ALWAYS able to speak over the phone if needed to go over things in more detail or answer any questions I may have. She had even contacted me on a weekend or two when needed for my case. I was actually pleasantly surprised on how it easy it was to communicate with her because I've heard horror stories of attorneys being unreachable. This was not the case with Regan at all. She also informed me on things I could do to save a little bit of money instead of trying to gouge me. Which I very much appreciated. Admittedly I did vent or rant and rave throughout the case a few times and instead of not responding or not caring she very graciously would reply back and be completely understanding and try to ease my fears. It was not very far into the case when I just breathed a huge sigh of relief because some issues arised and she knew exactly what to do and got the result I wanted. I knew without a doubt that I hired the right person to fight for my kids and I. My case took about a year and a half to complete, everything that she could do or had control over was done quickly and efficiently. It was the uniqueness, mediation, and waiting for trial that took time. So I say this in closing, Regan is an absolutely amazing attorney. She fought for me and we got the results I wanted in the case. Communication- A+++ Professionalism- A+++ Knowledgeable- A+++ Attorney/Client Interaction- A+++ I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Which I will actually end up needing to do in the future. She can be trusted with the most important things in your life, your kids. I'm so happy I did the research that I did because it led me to make the right decision on hiring her. The other staff that I dealt with in the office was just as pleasant to interact with. They were top notch! You will not be disappointed when hiring Regan as your attorney. Thank you Regan for everything that you've done for me and my kids. You truly are a blessing.

Regan worked with me on a legal separation case. While it was a difficult experience for me personally, she was very responsive to all of my questions. She is very knowledgeable, but is not afraid to admit if she needs to gather additional information on specific questions by leveraging her professional network. She was very communicative through the process and helped me know what to expect. She is very efficient in her work, professional in her manner, and I would definitely recommend her to those in need of legal help.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Regan. She is a patient listener, she has perfect analytical thinking, and I felt very confident with her representing me in front of the Judge. The result exceeded all my expectations. I always got a response to my e-mails and phone calls very fast. She is a great person individually and professionally. Regan is a gifted lawyer and I would highly recommend Regan, if you are looking for dependable legal help.
