When I most needed someone to have my back, Jennifer Peckham was a true blessing. She is a straight-shooter and her compassion is second to none. Jennifer did an amazing job of laying out all the options and helping me see both the short- and long-term benefits of each. She was genuinely concerned about my relationship with my children and she helped me stand up straighter and fight when all I felt was gutted. Although Jennifer is worth her weight in gold, she did not nickle and dime me to death. My gratitude is endless and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for competent advocate willing to fight hard with grace and dignity.

I had a wonderful experience with Mindy and the staff at Elizabeth Christy Law Firm. Mindy was always available to help me and replied quickly. She kept me calm and helped me work through some very difficult situations during my divorce. The other staff members, particularly Victor and Patrick, were fast with replies and incredibly helpful when I needed help from them. I would recommend Mindy for anyone who wants to keep their divorce calm, equitable, and peaceable but thorough.

Erin K. MorrisAs soon as I met Erin in the first meeting, I felt instantly connected and knew she will do anything to protect me & kids and get me what is legally & rightfully mine. I had a different attorney from a different firm before Erin who just could not handle manipulation or give me results. But Erin understood & catch up the case all so quickly when I hired her and handled everything very smartly.She is a very warm person who actually really cares about you and the case and not just say things how some other attorneys do. She is highly experienced in all kinds of divorce cases.Erin is a super talented attorney that you surely need by your side whether to be an amicable divorce or a difficult one. For me, unfortunately, it was with a very difficult spouse and Erin's following traits and skills just made the process efficient, workable, less expensive, results-oriented for me. She really fought for me till the end with the same spirit and in a timely way.*Able to handle a manipulative spouse and hence a manipulating opposing counsel.*Able to push back opposing counsel who bring in unnecessary demands, issues which can make your legal bills go high. She kept everything in control. In my case opposing counsel billed my spouse a lot and had client control issues too. So whatever issue my spouse wanted to raise was just brought in to my attorney which were going to raise my bills but Erin controlled it from the start and got straight to the point.*Very tactful with the opposing counsel. She knew where to say what. And she knew how to handle some issues with politeness but sometimes being strict and firm and taking a stand, all to benefit me and make my life easy.*She really understood my case, what I want & was on her toes.*No unnecessary billing.*She will try to settle the case so as it does not go to trial and for you not to pay a huge trial fee. But if your spouse really wants to take the case to Trial then she will fight strongly for you. In my case how much we tried to avoid, we were there in front of the judge many times due to my spouse being adamant to go to the judge, and Erin fought well in court, mediation conference you name it.*Highly professional ways of either responding to emails, meeting you, or even returning your calls on weekends if urgent.*Follow up the matter even if you have forgotten about it.*She is the voice for you in the court, she is very professional, respectful in court but will say what is needed to fight for you & protect you.*Her emails are clear, concise & detailed if you need her legal advice. She made the legal language for me very easy as family law is not my professional background*She advised me differently to legally protect me if I was thinking something which will not be good for me. She got my back at each & every way of the divorce process.*She is so thorough in her work and legal advice and knows it all very well.I thank her from the bottom of my heart for all her services.And highly recommend her to anyone.

Mindy Stannard calmly and professionally led me through a harrowing and extended custody dispute, at the end of which I was awarded sole legal custody of my child. Mindy's straightforward approach, backed by a great deal of experience and knowledge, provided the answers and support I needed at every stage in the process, and I also appreciated her sensitivity to my need to keep costs to a minimum. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend Jennifer Peckham. She is a great family law attorney. She is very knowledgeable and provided me with really valuable advice. I loved having her by my side during my divorce and contempt motion. I was really nervous going through the divorce process and she was very patient and compassionate with me. I dont think I would have had the outcome and strength to go through this if it wasnt for her. I am so grateful for having Jennifer Peckman by my side during one of the most difficult transitions of my life. If I ever need an attorney again she will be the one I hire. She is the best!!!!

I've worked with Jennifer for two years now, and she has been direct, firm, and realistic about the legal issues I'm facing, at the same time as being compassionate and generous personally. She exhibits a wonderful balance of professionalism and personability, handles billing issues with grace, and is a genuinely likeable person, who I'm glad to have met despite the circumstances. So far, the outcomes of my case have been better than I hoped they would be, but even if they hadn't, I would have had no doubt at all that Jennifer had done a thorough job, nor would I have any doubts that she genuinely cares about my case. The whole experience has raised my trust in legal system in general, and given me a level of hope for my son and his situation that I did not have before. In addition to Jennifer, I had previously consulted with Mindy Stannard, and though it was a brief interaction, it was also very positive, and she exhibited a similarly high level of professionalism and personability, realism and compassion. The fact that both of these attorneys are at Elizabeth Christy speaks volumes to me about the character of the firm as a whole. Not only do I highly recommend them, but I have enough trust in them to say that if you have had a negative experience with them, you would be doing yourself a service to take serious stock of your own actions and perspective rather than finding fault with theirs.

I was told that I would not have to pay for a consultation, but they charged me anyway. Then I found out the advice that I got was not good legal advice. They are rude and unprofessional, I do not recommend hiring them.

Was disappointed by this firm's lack of organization/professionalism. I had made an appointment several days in advance for a time sensitive matter, and given them all of the usual info. Then when I was actually driving to the appointment I got a call telling me that they had only then--minutes before the appointment-- checked to see if there were any conflicts of interest w one of the parties, there was, and they had to cancel. The next appointment available was a week later, leaving me really up the creek.

Erin Morris is the family law attorney you want on your side. She is not only a zealous advocate for her clients in the courtroom but also incredibly approachable and thoughtful to her clients needs and concerns. I would recommend her services without hesitation to all of my friends or family who are in need of family law services.

We hired Elizabeth after several failed attempts to modify my fianc's custody and parenting orders as the kids were in danger with the primary parent. We wanted to find an attorney that was passionate about and would fight for a fathers rights as we felt they aren't as recognized as often and not taken as seriously. Elizabeth jumped right on our case and within 24 hours had the ball rolling. We walked away getting the kids into a safer situation with us more permanently, we couldn't have asked for a better outcome or a more amazing attorney and person than Elizabeth Christy! I must also add her team is equally amazing!!! I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team!!!

Elizabeth Christy is an awesome attorney. I would recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney. After over a year of expensive delays with another attorney my doctor recommended I hire Elizabeth Christy to represent me. After so much frustration with the other legal firm Elizabeth was able to build a persuasive case for me and negotiated a result that was much better than I expected at half the cost of my previous attorney. Thank you again Elizabeth!!

I was extremely disappointed with my experience with Elizabeth Christy. My (now) ex-wife were working through our divorce about a year ago. We received initial proposed child care and child support numbers based on gross monthly incomes. Naturally, my ex-wife proposed numbers that were excessively high. Elizabeth Christy wasn't much help in diving into the numbers and figuring out why they were excessive to then propose a counter proposal. Also, there were numerous errors and mistakes in our drafted responses that I was responsible for catching. I didn't feel comfortable that Elizabeth was capable of representing me or maybe she didn't have my best interest at heart. Therefore, I chose to take my business elsewhere. $1,500 for multiple mistakes, simply reading documents and not providing any real legal support was disappointing to say the least. My experience was extremely dissatisfying and wouldn't recommend their services.
