Bednarczyk & Valerio, LLP

Tracey Wapnick has been my lawyer and advocate throughout my divorce process. No one ever wants to need a divorce lawyer, but if you do, Tracey is the best and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. She is extremely experienced and knowledgable, and also very kind.

She is ALWAYS focused on what's best for the kids, which means trying collaborative, lower-conflict solutions first. She is fair and honest, and never tries to create conflict just to bill more hours; she truly wants what is best for her clients and their children. She consistently recommended next steps that kept the best interests of my child at the forefront, minimized conflict and cost, and provided wise and caring advice every step of the way.

However, if more collaborative solutions don't resolve the issue, she is right there with her clients in court standing strong for them, while remaining fair, ethical, and professional. She truly is an advocate for her clients, and if you need a wise guide to help you through what can be the hardest thing you've ever had to deal with, I cannot recommend her highly enough as the person best suited to guide you through it.

Cammila Valerio did an amazing job helping my ex-wife and me clarify the child custody terms of our divorce agreement through mediation. She was very skilled at seeing exactly how to engage us both to ensure that an agreement could be reached quickly, with the concerns of both sides taken into account (as well as our child's best interests). I'm thankful for her help.

I worked with Sarah on my divorce case. She was very smart and helped me create my custody stipulation and reassured me when my ex was threatening various things. The reason I am giving this firm 3 stars is because she called me to talk about my tone of voice and didn't appreciate the fact that I was questioning her strategy. The ability to work with clients who are experiencing all the emotions of divorce should be a top requirement for a divorce lawyer, which I don't think Sarah has the stomach for.

UPDATE: I wanted to provide an update on my review. I really appreciated how the managing partners reached out to me to understand what went wrong and how to reconcile the issues. It is important that business owners respond to clients in a positive manner and Camila was very responsive in doing so.
