Lorraine P. Stark

Exceptional guidance through a complex divorce

Navigating my high-conflict divorce was one of the most stressful experiences of my life. I chose Lorraine Stark at Casner & Edwards after seeing her recognition in family law, and it was the best decision I could have made. From our first consultation in her Boston office, her approach was both methodical and compassionate. She possesses a deep understanding of Massachusetts family law, which she explained in clear, practical terms, demystifying the entire legal process. My case involved intricate financial assets and a contested custody arrangement. Lorraine’s strategic foresight was invaluable; she anticipated opposing counsel's moves and prepared meticulously, which gave me immense confidence. Her negotiation skills are outstanding. She advocated fiercely for my interests regarding asset division and parenting time, yet always steered us toward pragmatic solutions that avoided unnecessary courtroom drama. The recognition she has received from Best Lawyers is well-deserved. What truly sets her apart, however, is her client care. Despite her demanding caseload, she was consistently responsive, patient with my questions, and a steadying presence throughout the emotional turmoil. The final settlement was more favorable than I had hoped for, securing my financial future and a solid co-parenting plan. I cannot recommend Lorraine Stark highly enough.
