Telfer Family Law & Mediation

"I hired Diana as my divorce attorney specifically because she offers a collaborative divorce option, and I wanted things to go as amicably as possible. When a divorce on "cohesive terms" did not work out at all, Diana helped me navigate the ups and downs of the divorce process. She even offered to work on Memorial Day so that my ex-husband and I could come to an agreement. During both mediation sessions we had, Diana sought out a very professional and helpful mediator. Both Diana and the mediator carefully explained the pros and cons of the offers as we went back and forth. I am satisfied with the outcome of my divorce. I appreciate Diana being at my side the whole way, answering questions, clarifying points, explaining the process, and calling me to offer support. While divorce is a slow and painful course, Diana was steadfast and hard working. I am grateful that Diana, using her professional skills, and also her humanity, guided me through a very hard time in life."

"Kind, Professional and Tough! I cannot imagine what would have been the outcome if I didn't have Diana's counsel and protection. I am grateful for the kindness Diana and her team have extended to me and the thoughtful advice she shared that reached beyond custody matters. I know we wouldn't be where we are today if it wasn't for her professionalism and positive influence."

"Diana was recommended to me by my therapist who had 2 other clients use her as their divorce attorney, so from the start, I had high expectations. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. The first time we met it was in person, which worked well to determine if we were a good fit. All the information Diana provided was clear and concise (how I prefer it), and by the time our first meeting ended, I knew she was my best choice. The rest of our communications were via phone calls or emails. As a research scientist, I'm a stickler for attention to detail, and aside from my name being misspelled a couple of times by her assistants, the service was top-notch! Diana responded to my emails promptly, with sufficient details to my many questions, and she would also call me for brief discussions to clarify any urgent questions I had. She explained my options, always trying to keep the process as amicable as possible between the two parties, and she would also provide alternative routes/options to take when my future 'ex' decided to have last-minute changes to the Stipulation document - although we didn't have children we had a business to resolve. I found Diana's service reasonably priced in the short term (i.e., cost of the retainer and hourly rates) and invaluable for getting the best deal to come out feeling like I was getting a fair outcome. Getting a good divorce attorney on your side is like buying a good pair of leather boots, they may not be cheap but they will last much longer than the cheap faux versions, and you'll be happy with your decision in the long run!"

"Diana has provided excellent counsel and guidance throughout the process. Her counsel has been thoughtful and wise, and she is particularly adept at spotting the issue and proposing reasonable and appropriate solutions. Diana listens and seeks to understand what is wanted and tries to give guidance consistent with those goals. She cares. On top of being an excellent attorney, Diana is an amazing person!"
