Client Testimonials For Attorneys Nancy Corsones and Wendy Fitzsimons

Former Client - Divorce Case

“Given my ex-wife’s Cluster B personality disorder, my divorce was always going to be a long and difficult one. 

(For the uninitiated, Cluster B means that a person affected by this condition is often dramatic, overly emotional, or erratic. This disorder often results in a high conflict divorce.)

Inevitably, I was going to have to deal with attempts at parental alienation, fights over assets (simple and complex ones), and different types of harassment. Similarly, it was clear early on that there would be plenty of court hearings, constant court motions, new issues coming up almost daily. My case involved all the various facets of a divorce. This included depositions, forensics, vocational consultants, attorney for the children, etc.  Fortunately, I had Wendy Fitzsimons in my corner. From our very first call, I knew that I had made the right choice.

Wendy brings a unique mix of compassion and professionalism that is rare. It was obvious throughout that she cared about me as a person and not just as a client. This alone was worth its weight in gold!   Wendy made sure she understood the dynamics of my situation. Wendy can be tough when necessary, but always keeps a cool head and gives the right advice at those critical moments.  She can separate out the noise (and there was an insane amount of it) from the real issues.  She can help you prioritize.  She does the hard work to understand all types of financial assets.  She balances strategic and tactical thinking, with a keen sense of the law. When you are in the whirlwind of a divorce with someone who has a high conflict personality disorder, you want a lawyer who is your partner and is easily available.   

Divorce is hard, and, in some cases, extremely hard.  In many ways, it is both a sprint and a marathon.   Moreover,  it doesn’t even end when the agreements are signed, because the other side is just warming up for the next round.   My experience shows that with the right lawyer, you can navigate the very troubled waters!   In a messy divorce, you will have to make many very difficult decisions that can have both short and long-term consequences.  Often, you will have to choose between bad options. With the right lawyer, you will make good choices that you can be proud of when the dust settles.  When you feel betrayed on many sides and you wonder who you can trust, you will be very happy to have Wendy as your attorney. You can trust her to advise you what is best and make sure you get to the other side with your head held high.”

Former Client - Divorce Case

You never realize how difficult a divorce can be until you actually have to go through one but during my search to find an attorney to help me through this most difficult time, I was fortunate enough to find Attorneys Wendy Fitzsimons and Nancy Corsones. Both attorneys have years of experience and are thorough, knowledgeable, understanding, and supportive. Wendy tried my case for me in Rutland Family Court and secured a very favorable outcome. She was an aggressive advocate, but also very professional. Nancy also advised on the case and her detailed motion writing tipped the scales in my favor. I am very happy I hired Wendy Fitzsimons and Nancy Corsones to represent me in my divorce.
