The Happy Even After Difference

Your goals, needs, emotions, concerns, and fears all contribute to what kind of legal experience you have. What happens during your divorce is important, but what happens after your divorce is equally as important.

With your input, we create a legal strategy that aligns with your priorities. This is what sets us apart.

We are not a “big box” one-size-fits-all divorce firm.

We offer a boutique experience coupled with high-quality representation from experienced attorneys.

Our entire team is dedicated to supporting you through this journey, and we are committed to ensuring that you feel empowered to make important decisions.

Our attorneys have won numerous awards, appeared on TV and radio, taught seminars, and have written books and published articles. But our greatest source of pride is watching our clients go from barely surviving this moment in their life to thriving in their next chapter.

That is the HAPPY EVEN AFTER difference.

The Happy Even After Difference

  • A custom legal strategy based on your goals and needs.
  • We pride ourselves on relentless high quality representation.
  • We care about how your divorce impacts your children and our approach is always child-centered.
  • We stand against unnecessary conflict.

Connecticut Divorce Lawyers

We know divorce is hard. We know it feels like your life is falling apart - like you will never feel normal or whole again. You have more questions than answers and every which way you turn, someone is giving you (mostly unsolicited) advice about what you should be doing. It doesn't have to be this way. That’s where we come in.

    "Renée was very thorough and smart when it comes to divorce and child custody especially for fathers’ rights."
    I had to find an attorney and the Happy Even After was highly recommended to me so I made my consultation with Renée. Right away I felt at ease. Renée took some of my worries away and she reassured me this is all normal procedure in getting a divorce. Renée was very professional, respectful, polite and kind... Renée was very thorough and smart when it comes to divorce and child custody especially for fathers’ rights. Everyone in her office was very professional, polite and caring. The paralegal was very helpful. She would get things done ASAP and if you needed something, she would send it through email right away. It was always a pleasure speaking with her on the phone, in person or through email. I also had the pleasure of working with Leslie who prepared my financial affidavit. She was always a pleasure to speak with, very polite, professional and helpful. Leslie would walk me through something I did not understand step-by-step or would find the answer for me. Overall, the whole firm was excellent. I highly recommend Happy Even After to anyone that's going through a divorce..... thanks for the positive experience from Renée and her law firm!!!!

A Message From Our Founder

“Divorce just means that your marriage is complete. It doesn’t mean your life is over. It doesn’t mean you are a failure. It means you are ready for a new season of your life. It means you have an opportunity to create a life you love - one in which you are happier than you ever thought possible.”
