Q & A

Karen M. Buckley, Esq.

The client can certainly help themselves by learning what the issues are, and how to be properly prepared to present their case, as well as learning what resources are available to them, including child support collection services. However, I would caution a client that doing some research online does not necessarily give them the knowledge or skills to effectively present their case in Court.

Absolutely! I believe it is important that I and the client work together as a team.

No.

I find that is difficult, as one aspect of a case can have lasting impacts on other aspects of the case.

I do most of the work myself, but will give owrk to my paralegal when it is cost-efficient to do so.

Alternate dispute resolution is appropriate in some cases, and I do recommend it when it appears it will be a viable method of resolving the case. I am a member of the Massachusetts Collaborative law Council.

Yes-I am a Board Member of The Divorce Center, Inc., which provides public education on issues relating to divorce.

I take the time to listen to the client and use my experience and knowledge to provide them with practical advice to help them not only as they are going through a divorce, but also as they move forward with their life. I  explore avenues of resolution that will benefit the client, and use my creativity to try to reach solutions for all my clients-whether family law, civil litigation or other matters.
