The silver lining from this prenup process is that we both now understand each other’s financial goals and expectations based on the challenging conversations we’ve had and have a rough plan moving forward that we believe is fair to us both while married.
Your book has been a lifesaver to me in this bewildering process. It means a great deal to me that you bring both tremendous legal expertise and a sensitivity to protecting the health of the couple’s relationship, an approach I have struggled to find among all the attorneys I’ve considered.
We want you to know, once again, how much we appreciate your patience, incisiveness, collaboration, emotional intelligence and kindness— all qualities that we seek to bring into our marriage.
The whole process was very beneficial in making us understand how we would approach our finances during marriage, which is just as important (if not more important) than what happens in divorce. Thanks again for your consulting, and for making us think about all of the implications of and possibilities with the prenup.
After arduous negotiations that almost brought an end to our engagement, I finally have a signed prenup. Thanks for all your consulting before we engaged attorneys, Laurie. It proved very useful in the subsequent negotiations.
Laurie, we’re both very grateful for you guiding us through this process and we definitely feel like we came out of it with exactly the sort of prenup we were hoping for. Should be putting ink to paper on it very shortly! Thanks again.
I cannot thank you enough for shepherding us through this difficult chapter in our journey. You are truly wonderful, a very gifted guide and mediator. A real blessing!
I am currently rereading some of your book Laurie. It really is terrific. Thanks for writing it. Despite my smarts and education, the legal and financial realm is truly bewildering. It is a comfort to have a trustworthy guide.
I feel fortunate to have hired your services. Those closest to me are impressed with how much I learned through our work together!
Your help, guidance, wisdom and sincere compassion through the process of our mediation was truly remarkable. We were so impressed with your ability to pay so close attention to detail and at the and at the same time understand implications in a larger context. We were deeply impressed. Thank you.
Thank you so much for everything. You made a terrifying, embarrassing, challenging, humiliating situation palatable and have given me some measure of peace.
I am grateful to you. Because of the work you, I can sleep better at night.
Our matter lasted for about a year and a half. It was a very tense time for us. We often spoke of what you did for us, and what it meant to us. It was a wonderful outcome, and we are very grateful.
Laurie’s ability to negotiate difficult situations was timely, excellent and impressive. Meticulous in her practice of the law, Laurie remains devoted to the needs of her clients.
Laurie delved into the dustiest files, figured out what steps needed to be taken, and set us on the right path with a clear picture of what is needed in the future. Her work is greatly appreciated.
Although I had no idea what to expect, as my difficulties became more apparent and at times consumed me completely during our meetings, Laurie always remained calm and communicated intense respect and caring.
I just wanted to drop a quick note to thank you for writing the prenup article. It was the most helpful thing I came across on the topic and articulated the unease I had with the trust/emotional consequences of a prenup. Cheers.
You possess a rare combination of qualities: intelligence, a great sensitivity to your clients and their needs, a thorough understanding of the law, and a dedication to the best possible outcome for your client and for the situation presented, as a whole.”
