Ren\u00e9e is a brilliant strategist and a tough negotiator. She is professional, extremely organized and was prepared for every hearing and deadline. It is apparent that she is also very well respected by the judges and opposing attorneys, which was critical when my ex would not cooperate. Ren\u00e9e has a passion for family law (and families). I have recommended her to several people who have had an equally satisfying experience. I give her an A++.\u201d \u2014 Anne, Washington, DC<\/li>\n<li>\u201cRen\u00e9e Stasio is so much more than an amazing attorney.

After a very painful and grueling year, Ren\u00e9e succeeded in restoring 50\/50 legal and physical custody of my children. She&#8217;s a fighter. She doesn&#8217;t take nonsense from the other side, and if you need to shape up she&#8217;ll give it to you straight, too. Renee is very smart, tough and seemingly fearless. She is an amazing advocate, and you will never meet someone with a bigger heart or more integrity.
