Natalie and her paralegal are bar none…read more I have heard from several others of their frustrations with their attorneys. Attorneys that do not communicate, attorneys that get nothing done yet keep asking for more money. Attorneys that do not fight for the paying client, but on the contrary, seem to be favoring the opposing side. None of these were the case with Natalie. She and her paralegal were caring, empathetic, reassuring, intelligent, professional, extremely knowledgeable, and if that weren't enough, made me feel as if I were their only client the entire year+ that I worked with them. They never made me feel like I had asked one too many questions or that their very busy schedule was beyond their taking the time I needed. Natalie always communicated within 24 hours and 99% of the time, responded the same day. She was continually working on my case to move it forward. She was always a step ahead of me, consistently communicating what the next steps were. If I asked her a question, I never got a short, pacifying answer. She not only would answer my question, but explained the law around the answer, what our options were, and how to move the case forward. She was impressively creative in the ways she came up with to handle each issue that arose in the divorce process. When Natalie said she was going to do something, she did it. Without fail. I don't believe I could have ever gotten better representation than I did with Natalie. She fought for me as if she were fighting for herself. She conducted herself in a highly professional and knowledgeable manner before the judge and with the opposing counsel. I could not be happier with the outcome - an outcome I wouldn't have come close to obtaining had I not been represented by her. Honestly, I haven't one negative thing to say. Natalie is the whole package and then some. I will forever be so grateful that Natalie represented me. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Throughout the entire process she has been so reassuring, patient and thorough. Yesterday we had our hearing and I couldn't be happier and more relieved. I felt like Yvette completely had my back and best interest at the forefront (this was not the case with the last lawyer). I honestly couldn't have asked for a better outcome at our court appearance yesterday. So grateful to have found her. My only regret is that I didn't hire her sooner!!!

The most expensive months bill I had was the month I told her my ex and were trying to resolve matters ourselves to save money. I sent her a brief excel sheet of our agreements to review and that somehow took hours. I never felt like she was going to work hard to protect what I spent my life building.

I've worked with Fromm Smith and Gadow for many years. Jenny was my first attorney and she was…read moreawesome. She was very straightforward and walked me through the process. I felt that she listened and really tried to help. Just recently I chose to work with this practice again but with a different attorney, Kathleen Stillman. Unfortunately this was NOT a good experience! She didn't listen, and seemed unprepared. I felt that her priority was to milk as much money as possible and didn't care if the consequences outweighed the benefits. If you choose this practice, I would not recommend Kathleen. Hire Jenny Gadow or another attorney in the practice. Unfortunately my latest experience has colored my perception of the entire practice.

Amy was very calming, reassuring, and matter of fact. I had another attorney start my case, but it became clear early on that they were in over their head. Amy was referred to me by a friend and switching was the best thing I could have done. Amy took on the case, got up to speed quickly, and moved it along so I could begin to move forward with my life. Amy was also very knowledgeable of the laws and worked well with the judges and other attorney which also made things go more smoothly. I'd highly recommend using her.

We knew nothing about trusts and estates but they walked us through it and educated us. There was no pressure to do things we didn't want to do and we are eternally grateful to them for setting up our trust and allowing us to live in comfort knowing that if anything happened to us, everything would be taken care of the way we wanted with no unknowns or confusion. The price was very reasonable and they obviously care about their clients and are passionate about what they do. You are not just a number in their office. You walk away feeling like part of their family. I encourage everyone to meet with them and discuss your estate and think about a trust. You will be glad you did. Thank you Marjorie and Leah for taking good care of us! We are clients for life!
