Expert guidance through a complex divorce

Navigating my high-asset divorce was overwhelming until I engaged Jocelyn Hurwitz. Her 33 years of focused family law experience, including her recognized mediation and arbitration skills, were immediately apparent. She expertly balanced assertive advocacy with a practical approach, ultimately facilitating a settlement that protected my financial future and my children's well-being. Her deep knowledge of Connecticut family law and her professionalism at every turn made an incredibly difficult process manageable. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
