A friend's mom initially had me use her personal friend as my divorce lawyer.
Rule number 1: Use an actual family attorney.
If I had went with Karen from the beginning, I would've saved thousands of dollars. My friend's mom's friend (see how bad that already sounds?), a personal injury attorney, filed my paperwork under the wrong name (I am "Christine" not "Christina") and even had me give up everything for my soon-to-be-ex. My official reason for filing was domestic violence, but he filed it under "personality." The first attorney didn't care about my 401k or my house, which I solely purchased (my ex's name wasn't even on the mortgage, didn't help purchase it, etc). He just kept saying this is a community property state and that half is going to my ex (and of course my ex had no savings, retirement, etc and was really jonesing for my money). I didn't even finish my divorce and stayed in limbo for almost a year because I was afraid about my daughter and I not having a place to live. Soon I had a court date looming that he didn't prepare me for nor notify me about.
A friend told me I just need to use a female divorce attorney and to get on with my life. They couldn't understand how the person with the lawyer is the one losing! They did a Google search and pulled up Karen. The initial 30 minute consultation was free, but she listened to me for an hour, free of charge. She was practical and decisive and sensitive to what I was going through. She went through the "work" my previous attorney did and told me that if my divorce had been filed under domestic violence, I would've been entitled to more than half of the property. The next thing she did was increase my child support, since my ex was supposed to be paying for my daughter's insurance (my previous attorney did not even tell me I was entitled to this reimbursement). I told Karen I was concerned about the geographic restrictions since my dream was to go to Yale for my PhD (I was limited to Tarrant County by my previous attorney). She tried to eliminate them, but my ex didn't want me to leave Texas so then I was free to stay within the state. She told me that a limit to Texas is about as good as it gets.
Karen then fought for me. In the end, I got to keep 100% of my house (bought while we were married), and ALL of my retirement. She accompanied me to the courthouse where I was a crying mess. The judge asked me why I was crying since I am leaving an abusive marriage. I told him I felt like I was disappointing everyone- my family, my friends, and even God. He and Karen consoled me and told me that I was really left with no recourse. Karen also made it a point to tell the judge that I'm a nurse and am in the habit of caring for others and overlooking myself. I am the first person on both sides of my family to ever get a divorce. I had a lot of guilt and shame.
This was the darkest moments of my life. Karen ensured that my daughter and I were not homeless. She made it as painless and stress-free as possible, given the circumstances. She and her staff are super responsive and I did not have to worry about where it was going, unlike my other attorney who had no problem taking my money and I'm not even sure what he did. I got the whole thing done for about $4k.
I changed career paths and am now enrolled in law school myself. Thank you Karen.
Karen was able to quickly gain more time with my daughter then I could dream imaginable, which is no easy task in the state of Texas. Once she was hired she was able to explain the court process which alleviated my concern and allowed for maximum transparency.
I should also mention she was referred to me by my mother who also referred my uncle. We have all used her services and I would recommend her to any other friend or family member in the future, if they find themselves in the unfortunate position to require an attorney.
Please disregard these foreign language reviews.
Thank you, Karen Cushman

Karen is a great divorce attorney. In my case she worked diligently to resolve the case without protracted litigation to avoid unnecessary costs and emotional stress. When that option was no longer practical she exerted her full knowledge to ensure the judge heard my case fairly. In the end her skill working the case led to a desirable out of court settlement.
Always interview multiple attorney's to find the one right for you in price, knowledge and ultimately style. If you hire an attack dog that is what you will get, if you hire a advocate, hire Karen Cushman.
