I’ve had some really bad experiences with lawyers … some that make you feel like it’s your fault your EX is taking you for a ride , others that don’t show up in court and leave you stranded or worse charge you a for doing nothingFor the first time , I felt heard and supported by my new lawyers … they were empathetic, supportive and made many suggestions on how the case can be improved and how they will proceed to finalize it . When you pay big money for a lawyer you expect results !I would highly suggest this team of professionals … five stars all the way !!

My experience with RA Collaborative has been nothing but positive. I started my divorce journey 2.5 years ago and finding Susanna Crichlow was an answer to prayer. She was the 3rd lawyer I had spoken to. The most important question I had for her was, "If this needs to go to court, will you fight for me?" Throughout this process she has been confident but honest. I appreciated that she did not sugar coat what the outcome could be but gave me realistic expectations every step of the way. She has answers questions that I have promptly, which has calmed my anxiety. When dealing with court, she has given peace knowing I can trust her judgment and the best way forward for my family. I recommend using this family law firm and highly endorse Susanna Chrichlow to anyone seeking counsel with divorce, child support and spousal support issues, relocation, and parenting agreement issues. You will not regret it!

Divorce after a long term marriage is one of the most stressful and disruptive events you could possibly endure, and I have nothing but gratitude and appreciation for Michelle Mulchan, Courtney and Kaitlyn from Russell Alexander. They kept me in the loop on all communication, explained things to me in a very clear and concise manner, and kept my expectations and timeline in check. I could not have asked for a better team to guide me through this transition in my life. Ms. Mulchan was respectful of my time and budget throughout and she kept my morale up and my sights on the finish line. I will credit her and her team in my future success and would have no problem recommending her to anyone I care about in the future.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review. We are truly honored to have been able to support you through such a significant transition.

My experience so far with this firm has been wonderful. The receptionist was warm and inviting. When I asked for clarification on certain parts of the contract, she reached out immediately, to one of the lawyers via phone call and they spoke directly to me. As I sat reading, Russell Alexander walked into the building and rather than simply continuing on to his office, he came in and introduced himself. I would, without hesitation, recommend this firm.
