Family Law Reviews
I cannot thank Stacey enough for her exceptional representation during my divorce. Throughout the entire process, my ex and his attorney’s repeated attempts to delay proceedings and blatantly lies might have thrown many attorneys, but Stacey’s strategic approach, deep knowledge of family law, and sheer tenacity prevailed.

We are beyond grateful for the exceptional service we received from Stacey during a very difficult and challenging family matter. Stacey took on our case when others advised us that there was no chance of winning. She proved them wrong and won in spite of the odds.

Stacey is one of the most professional, competent attorneys that I have ever encountered. She had my best interest at heart 100% of the time, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She took a tough situation and made it much easier to navigate and my entire family benefitted from her expertise. She is smart, personable and really went to bat for me. Please, do yourself a favor and consider using Stacey for your legal needs.
