Financial Order 7 years after divorce!

Rebecca and Isabel dealt with my case and they were very professional, but also, due to my emotional involvement, extremely patient and kind. I ranted and raved and they listened to me on repeat and were so caring. I wasn’t always a delight due to the delicate nature of my case, but they dealt with a highly emotionally charged situation with a great deal of consideration and kindness.
