I hired attorney Susan Light to help me on a civil case. Ms Light did a great job and won my case! Ms. Light took the time to understand what my problem was and to prepare my case for trial. Ms. Light was diligent, punctual, and a very effective communicator. I highly recommend her services to others!
Susan and her team were professional, patient and compassionate. She explained the Parenting Plan process and told me what to expect every step of the way. She provided excellent counsel every step of the way. My case turned out exactly as I had hoped with the welfare of my child coming first.
Five years ago, in the midst of a contentious divorce, my former attorney had to close her practice due to personal matters. Before panic set in, I requested an excellent substitute, and she recommended Susan Light, without hesitation. Susan quickly and confidently processed many unfortunate details regarding parenting issues, my ex’s psychological issues and my need to protect my few assets. Susan was good at condensing complex problems and proposed options for best case scenarios and potential resolutions, including settling some very ugly problems by meeting with opposing counsel. As busy as she was, she responded to my texts and phone calls, and met with me in her office when necessary. I’m a teacher and mother of four, and she was always considerate of my budget and time constraints.. I’ve hired her several times as issues have arisen in the evolution of my post-divorce life, and I feel confident that she has a comprehensive view of my very personal situation, such that I would trust her 100% for any future legal assistance.
This is the second time I have hired Susan and she shined as always. I had a pretty complex case, since my child lived out of state, but Susan was always confident we would win. My case involved multiple hearings. At each hearing Susan was magnificent and her skills really shined through in the court room. Also, every time I needed to speak about my case or needed information, Susan or Kristine (her awesome paralegal) were always there to help. After she won my case the other party appealed. Susan absolutely nailed the appeal response and we have now won the appeal as well. Susan's vast legal knowledge, especially about the UCCJEA, is second to none. Finally, one of the things that impressed me the most was Susan and her team were personable and always made me feel more than just a client. With Susan you get what you pay for -a very talented, experienced and knowledgeable attorney!!!!
I met and hired susan the first time I met her. She was honest, concerned, motivated and decisive. My divorce was dredging along with a different lawyer who wouldn't answer calls or emails. Susan and her associates had my signed settlement agreement within 8 hours of the retainer!! My 5 months of stress and drama are swiftly coming to an end thanks be to Susan Ames-Light; she's an unwavering professional with intense negotiating skills. Her 30+years of practicing law are exactly the judges order...knowledge, lucid argument and unwavering confidence. ThankYou!
Susan and her paralegal Kristine are the dynamic duel team! They both are very sincere and work from their hearts not their wallets! I recommend them to any one who asks me for a lawyer reference. Susan handles so many cases not for the bill to be paid but for justice to take place. If you need a lawyer and staff that you want to feel like a team and are willing to go the distance, then call this firm. Ive called Susan to represent me for more then 1 different topic.. Im very satisfied with the results!
We had a very complicated custody case that needed a lot of attention and immediate action. Susan took us on during one of her busiest weeks this year, knowing that we needed something filed in a matter of days in order to protect our child. Her superior work ethic, extensive knowledge of family law, military statutes, and multiple state precedents were paramount in the success of our case. She made herself available to us via text and was prompt in returning all correspondence. She meticulously reviewed our files before each and every hearing and was always prepared for any possibility. Her staff was professional and courteous and when emergencies came up there was always someone working intensely on our case. We never felt ignored and were even given a discount for the times work had to be redone do to the urgent nature of our conflict. We encountered several roadblocks along the way, to include a military deployment, and nothing hindered Susan’s momentum. We could not be more impressed with, and grateful for Susan and her staff. We will not be considering anyone else in the event that we need any further legal assistance.
When I provided the attorney, Susan, with proof of the other party's inappropriate use of funds, she worked late into the night to complete the necessary Court documents to file and stop this action. Her skilled experience and efficiency organizing the data was outstanding.
My lawyer was representing me in a divorce case complicated by bankruptcy issues. My wife had tried to stick me with ridiculous amounts of debt and wanted alimony that would have clogged up my future. Susan Light was very experienced in both divorce and bankruptcy and it made all of the difference. I am out of the mess of debt and unknown liabilities and now I have a future. I would recommend Susan Light and her amazing staff to everyone!
I have known this attorney for 15 years, and have seen her in and out of the courtroom. He intelligence in the legal field is outstanding, and she advocates for families and children. I have read some bad reviews, and I would strongly suspect they were written from the disgruntled losing side and they were not focused on the best needs of their own children; sad but true. She is superior in the courtroom, which is where you need her to shine. Well done!!!!
