A divorce was not something that I ever expected to be involved in, and when I decided to go that route, I was lost and pretty emotional about it. I remember calling one evening, definitely after their closing time and leaving a short message, and later that night I got a text that they would call me that next day, and they did. I won't ever forget the first time I spoke with someone from that firm - Sandra. I don't think she'll ever realize just how much better I felt just knowing someone was there, even before they had taken me on as a client, she was the best first introduction I could've had. I ended up working with Laura, and I just have to say that she's amazing - she was so compassionate (they all were!!) and so knowledgeable and I knew that I was going to be OK. I moved out of state during the process and unfortunately never got to meet any of them, but even through voice and video calls, I felt protected, like they had my back even though we will likely never meet. Personality and friendliness aside, they were incredibly helpful, professional and knowledgeable, and I never felt duped or left in the dark. Respectfully, I hope to not have to work with them again, but if I ever needed someone, I know they'll be there. 10/10 recommend. Thank you, guys, thank you Sandra, thank you Laura, thank you everyone there.

Writing a public testimonial for the person who helped save me from a toxic marriage is loaded with emotion. Nobody comes to this most important decision of their lives lightly. I was terrified when I started the process.

From my first interaction with the firm, everybody took the time to get to know me as a human, my story, and my priorities. Even though I was referred to Dawn Smith, Sandy gently recommended Laura as a better fit for my personality and case. This recommendation locked me in - I knew everybody there would take care of me and my daughter's wellbeing first. I also knew I could go about my divorce the way I wanted - with dignity, civility, and *not* a tit for tat mentality.

Laura always allowed me to make my own choices, advising me of all the pros and cons. She prioritized me when circumstances escalated, and ensured my safety. The process was grueling, but I had unwavering confidence in her as my counsel. Her extensive experience with GA cases, specific judges and counties, and nuanced interpretations of evidence, gave me a hard, much needed look at how things really go in divorce. My ex and I were able to settle in mediation, in huge part due to how she negotiated with (multiple) opposing counsels. Settling a divorce (hopefully) means each party gets what is most important to them. Not that they get *all* they want. What a lesson that was! Laura and I strategized for hours leading up to mediations about my priorities. We keept the big picture and our desired outcome in mind. Laura helped me keep my emotions steady, helping me make sound decisions to craft the future I envisioned for my family.

Laura is the most detail oriented, prepared, professional I know - nothing escapes her eye. Her ability to work efficiently through long hours of mediation and turn things around in a matter of hours is beyond impressive. She caught problems in the opposing party’s drafts. She dotted every I and crossed every T, to the smallest detail. She created elaborate spreadsheets with incomes and options, ahead of substantive conversations. It’s hard to overstate her level of preparation. She saved my mental health and put me on a much better path.

Laura is an angel from heaven in an attorney’s body, put here to protect people going through this life change, especially women who have been mistreated and are trying to rebuild their lives. This firm’s passion for their clients oozes in every conversation. I will always have tremendous gratitude for everyone at Evolve and their deep impact on mine and my child’s life. I am almost one year out from my divorce and I am living the life of my dreams, with ease.

I recommend Laura to everybody who comes to talk to me about what direction they should take.

I am writing this review to express my profound dissatisfaction with Laura’s handling of my divorce case. The experience was marred by a consistent lack of communication and excessive overcharging. Laura neglected to immediately notify me of legal documents received from opposing counsel. I was very disheartened to learn of the discovery request during mediation. When I questioned her about the notice and the fact that I wasn’t notified in a timely manner she got very defensive and stated she wasn’t the right attorney for me. Go figure, after collecting over $15k, filing two legal documents on my behalf, it was very easy for her to request to be removed from my case. She left me hanging during my discovery period and I was forced to hire another attorney and to come up with another retainer within a short period of time. Who treats a client like this during one of the toughest times of their life? Stay away from this firm unless you want to be charged excessively for follow-up emails and be treated like check instead of a client. She literally ran up my legal charges and then ran out on me when it was finally time to actually work my case… after allowing my case to sit for a year without any real traction.

Excellence describes Laura Sclafani. Highest Recommendations describe my legal experience with her. Laura's ability to clearly communicate "pro's & cons" & "reasons why" demonstrate her intelligence, experience, & even more: her integrity and wisdom. I found Laura to be detail-minded, thorough, honest, & kind during the planning/strategy process, followed by quick-thinking, brilliant, articulate, clear, & commanding in Court, with a calm dignity that rises above unexpected complications. Sandy (Admin) likewise brought helpfulness, clarity, & encouragement to each office meeting & phone conversation. Laura was recommended as a highly respected attorney excelling in Family Law. She DID excell! She guided me from tears to hope to restart my future. I heartily recommend her to you.

I have had the pleasure of working with Laura Sclafani for several years now. She has represented me in several custody related cases. Going through the process of divorce or custody cases is not something I'd wish on anyone, but, if it's something you have to do, you want Laura on your side.

Laura acted as legal counsel, friend, and confidant through multiple cases over multiple years, and I continued to come back to Evolve Family Law for a reason; They care, and they are good at what they do.

I can't recommend Laura and Evolve Family law enough. I hope I never have to deal with any family-law related stuff ever again, but, if I do, you can bet I'll be calling Laura again!

When it comes to husbands, I did not choose wisely. But when it comes to divorce lawyers, I chose the best: Laura Scalfani and Evolve Family Law. They guided me thru a complex financial and emotional process. And most importantly, protected my assets FIERCELY! Thank you, Laura. And Sandy, the office manager has the most calming, positive voice. She always made me smile and feel better. Laura is the best attorney and Sandy is great for explaining things and keeping things positive.

My divorce hit me out of nowhere and I was devastated and lost. But the light out of that dark tunnel was Dawn Smith. I was so fortunate to have been referred to Dawn and her team. I called her on a weekend and she reached out immediately. Dawn provided me with great advice and counseling. She prioritized finding the best solution for both my family and I. When I was facing one of the most difficult chapters of my life, I was so fortunate to have Dawn in my corner. I will forever remember and thank her for her tremendous service and helping me to reach a quick and fair settlement. In my profession, I work with a lot of attorneys. I would rank Dawn as one of the best I ever worked with, regardless of their practice focus. I would highly Evolve Family Law, LLC. As great of an attorney Dawn is, she is an even better person.
