    Kristin Pallonetti is not only an exceptional lawyer, but also a genuinely compassionate and supportive person. During one of the most stressful times in my life, she made me feel heard, understood, and never alone. Her integrity, deep legal knowledge, and unwavering dedication gave me a sense of confidence and calm when I needed it most. What truly sets her apart is how deeply she cares—she goes above and beyond, advocating fiercely while also showing kindness and patience every step of the way. I am incredibly grateful to have had her by my side and cannot recommend her highly enough.

    Steve fights for his clients
    Steve and his team are fantastic people. Steve is not afraid to put up a fight for his clients and it truly shows in his work product. Jennifer and Kristin are genuinely the most down-to-earth and easy-to-talk-to people. They are open, honest, and trustworthy individuals. I love them all, and Steve goes out of his way for his clients. They are very knowledgeable in what they do and won’t steer you the wrong way. Did I mention Gina? She demonstrates impeccable workmanship and handles all matters carefully and professionally. Plus her single adult daughter is so cute AND smart!

    Highly Recommend Kristin
    Kristin Pallonetti was amazing and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of my case. She was extremely thorough and knowledgeable, and she absolutely delivered where others couldn’t. I highly recommend this law firm and Kristin specifically, you will not be disappointed!
    Michele Koeck
    Steve was different from the start.
    “All lawyers are sharks with no heart that will bleed you dry.” This is what I thought, especially after the first lawyer I worked with in my divorce process told me he’d treat me like family and then gave me terrible advice that would have given everything undeservedly to my ex, and left me in financial ruin. Prompted by my family, I decided to get a second opinion. I consulted with several attorneys but it was a call to Steve Monaghan that would change everything. Steve was different right from the start. Where other lawyers I had spoken with gave me a free consultation over the phone for a matter of 10-15 minutes, Steve invited me into his office and gave me an education. His integrity as a human being won me over and most certainly changed my view of lawyers. I am truly grateful to Steve for helping guide me through one of the most difficult experiences of my life. As a result, I highly recommend Steven P. Monaghan to anyone in need of an exemplary family law attorney.
    Jaclynn Lambusta
    Exceptional Attorney and Advocate
    Working with Steven P. Monaghan and his team was an absolute privilege. From the moment I walked through their doors, I knew I was in the hands of true professionals who genuinely cared about my case and my well-being. Steve is not just an exceptional attorney—he’s a dedicated advocate who brings wisdom, integrity, and an incredible depth of knowledge to everything he does. His ability to break down complex legal matters and present them with clarity gave me confidence every step of the way. More than that, he took the time to listen, understand my concerns, and craft a strategy tailored to my specific needs. His team is just as outstanding. Every interaction I had—whether with his paralegals, assistants, or other members of his firm—was met with kindness, professionalism, and a level of responsiveness that made me feel truly supported. They worked seamlessly together, ensuring every detail was handled efficiently and thoroughly. Steve Monaghan and his team don’t just provide legal services—they provide peace of mind. Their dedication, expertise, and genuine compassion set them apart, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. I honestly can’t thank you enough for! Pernille Hjelmeland
