Atty Staats was wonderful to work with during my disillusionment. She kept me up to date on everything that needed to be decided and where things stood. She was always available on the phone, in person, via email, and text. She understood the pain of the process and gave great personal advice for helping myself… - Rebecca, a Divorce client (5 star review)
