Mary Nguyen
After 22 years of marriage, my divorce was one of the most challenging experiences of my life. I was referred to Abigail Cohen by a colleague, and it was the best decision I could have made. Her 39 years of experience, particularly her Board Certification in Marital and Family Law, was immediately evident. She explained the collaborative law process as a potential path, which aligned with my desire for a less adversarial resolution. Abigail was incredibly thorough, anticipating complexities with our shared business and real estate holdings in Boca Raton. Her guidance was both strategic and compassionate; she never lost sight of the human element while fiercely protecting my interests. The recognition she has received in family law is well-deserved. Thanks to her expertise at Gladstone, Weissman, Hirschberg & Schneider, we achieved a settlement that was fair and allowed me to move forward with stability and peace of mind. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
