Save yourself years of regret. Hiring Sam Smith and Kira Damusis was one of the most damaging…read moredecisions I've ever made during an already traumatic divorce. I trusted them with the safety of my child and the outcome of my custody case, and they failed me at every step. Sam Smith personally sold me on her "hands-on" approach, but after retaining the firm, she never touched my case again. Not once. Even after repeated requests for her attendance at hearings, only Kira showed up, despite Sam being the one whose services I was promised and paid for. Their handling of evidence was unforgivable. I provided multiple notarized affidavits, photos, recordings, and documentation of my ex-husband's substance abuse disorder, none of which were submitted to the court. As a direct result of this negligence, I now share 50/50 custody with a parent who poses safety concerns to our child. This outcome could have been prevented had they done the most basic part of their job. They also submitted my divorce documents late, which unnecessarily extended my case by four months. At no point did they take responsibility for this delay. The professional conduct was just as disturbing. During a charged and vulnerable phone meeting, Kira yelled at me and victim‑blamed me, saying: "Well, you shouldn't have married a drug addict." That was her legal "guidance" as I was trying to advocate for my child's safety. They provided me with an incorrect holiday schedule, which caused an incident where my ex‑husband abused his time. Because their schedule didn't match the court order, enforcement was impossible. This is basic family‑law competence, and they failed it. I later learned, through other attorneys and court personnel, about several crucial protections that could have been included in my custody agreement: stipulations for communication, consequences for violations, safety conditions, and specific parental responsibilities. None of these were ever offered, suggested, or even discussed. They simply did the bare minimum. I never met either attorney in person. Communication was inconsistent, sometimes disappearing for long periods, and Kira even called me during vacations with abrupt and unpleasant demands. At one hearing, she provoked the judge and made the situation worse. I drafted the distribution‑of‑assets outline myself, and they inserted it verbatim into the judgment with no advisement, no professional guidance, and no required financial stipulations (timelines, interest, consequences for nonpayment). Again, I did the work; they collected the fee. These lawyers failed to protect me, failed to protect my child, and failed to uphold even the minimum standards of competent legal representation. I regret ever hiring them, and I strongly urge anyone considering them to look elsewhere.

I was overwhelmed when my mother passed away, and she left me with a lot of loose ends. I had…read morealready retained an attorney my mother had, but he was not responsive & left a real mess. I decided to seek another counsel. Susan responded the day I contacted her. I met with her almost immediately, and she had my mother's estate straightened out and closed in no time. She has assisted me in writing my Will and is helping me with a real estate issue I'm having right now. She listens to my concerns, acts on them, promptly responds to emails and phone calls, and is organized and knowledgeable. I am very impressed with Susan, both as an attorney and a compassionate individual. I can't imagine working with anyone else. I will always consult with her in the future for any legal issues that may arise. I also believe her fees are reasonable for the time she spends and the effort she puts forth to ensure I understand the "legalese." (Thank you, Susan, for your patience!)

Recently I have worked with the Selleck Legal, and I can honestly say this was the best experience…read morethat I have with any Law Firm. Ms. Selleck represented my case very firmly, was well prepared in each court meeting, answered my emails and calls very quickly. Ms. Selleck was very helpful navigating what to expect on the Zoom court meetings and led each meeting very firmly with the opposing attorney and Judge. I have worked with other high profile family law attorneys during my initial divorce, I feel that with Ms. Selleck, I received much more attention to my case. Ms. Selleck was able to point out specific things in my divorce decree that the other high profile attorney did not explain clearly in the rush to settle and close. These specific items Ms. Selleck discovered surely helped our case be a victory. I strongly encourage considering Selleck Legal to represent you.
