Let me first add the caveats that no one is thrilled to a) get a divorce, or b) have to pay a…read morelawyer for a divorce. Nonetheless, as my now ex-spouse simply refused mediation I had no choice but to file for divorce. There were complicated custody issues stemming from the fact that my ex is a citizen of another country while our son remained here in my care. Given not only the international dimension of formalizing custody but, also, clear attempts by the other party to exhaust me through procedural chicanery, the case had the potential to become a costly uphill battle. I'm grateful to Scott for his help in getting the courts to rightfully grant me sole custody of my son with final decision making authority. There were a few other items related to a pension that I had been paying into, as well as, sole authority to apply for passports and other items that insured my and my son's full financial and legal autonomy from my ex. Like I said, no one is going to sing the praises of getting billed but I believe under the circumstances Scott was always earnest in pursuing the end goal and he achieved exactly that. It took 2.5 years for the final order in part due to the courts being closed over 2 summers. While Scott definitely covered his bases, he also clearly worked at a face pace, kept the cost relatively inexpensive. That is a total bonus given we are now a one income fam. I also appreciate that Scott is a younger lawyer and therefore more relatable than some grumpy old guy at a super expensive firm. I say he gets full partnership now!

I used Visionary Law for my separation/ divorce and had Nikki Evans, who was wonderful…read more Unfortunately my spouse passed before we could come to an agreement and Nikki went on mat leave. My case was then moved over to an associate Laura Nagy to work though the estate litigation. Laura did not do her job! Repeatedly I had to contact her to find out what was happening. I paid well over $30,000 in legal fees and my case was still not resolved. I tried repeatedly to receive an update via emails and through their portal and did not hear back from Laura for 9 WEEKS. When I did hear from her it was to inform me that she was leaving the firm and no one at the firm had time to take on my case. I had only been dealing with them for 2 years and they couldn't make time for my case now. This place is a joke. Lillian MacKenzie is obviously not following up with her associates to see if their cases are on track or not. Save your money and go with a better firm which will actually do their job and not just take your money!
