West Michigan Divorce

Working with Erica was an absolute game changer during one of the hardest seasons of my life. From our very first meeting, she made me feel seen, heard, and truly supported. She walked me through every step of the divorce process and answered my questions with warmth, honesty, and expertise. Erica would remind me that “no one wins in divorce”, and while that’s true, I always felt like she genuinely cared about me and my future. She helped me focus my energy on what really mattered and let go of the things that didn’t. That guidance was huge for me, especially since I had never been through anything like this before. She explained my options clearly, listened without judgment, and kept me grounded when emotions ran high. Because of her compassion, clarity, and knowledge, I was able to move through this process feeling more confident and at peace. I’m so grateful for Erica’s support and heart. She’s not just an incredible attorney, she’s the kind of person you want in your corner when everything feels uncertain. I am deeply grateful for her. I can’t recommend her enough! Additionally, her assistant, Aime is on point and clearly knows her stuff. Thank you both.

My experience with this attorney was deeply disappointing. What began as a professional engagement quickly turned into a pattern of dismissiveness, errors, and poor communication. Throughout my case, she repeatedly made mistakes in my documents and filings — then excused them by saying she “has a full caseload,” as if that justified the errors or delays. Instead of taking accountability or offering solutions, she shifted blame back to me for following up or asking for corrections. Her tone was often unprofessional and even condescending. At one point, she echoed exact derogatory language the opposing party used to describe me, which was both shocking and unacceptable from someone meant to be advocating for me. When I simply asked for a full record of my payments and case file — something clients have every right to receive — she sent an email calling my request “borderline harassment.” No client should ever be treated that way for seeking transparency or accountability. If you’re looking for an attorney who is respectful, detail-oriented, and professional — I would strongly encourage you to look elsewhere. This firm’s handling of my case left me feeling mistreated, misrepresented, and profoundly disappointed.

I was thoroughly impressed with the legal help I received from Eric Auster at West Michigan Divorce. I felt I was in good hands from day 1. I was given all the relevant information I needed to make certain decisions during this difficult time. I was regularly updated by Aime and Erica about what was going on. I would not have wanted to navigate this divorce with any other attorney. I would highly recommend Erica Auster and West Michigan Divorce.

Erica is an absolute bulldog. I wouldn’t have been able to successfully get a divorce and win full custody of my son without her help, for fourteen months mind you. And let’s not forget Aime who was absolutely wonderful as well, with documents and further information! You both hold a very special place in my heart and I’m so grateful to have been able to work alongside you! Thank you!!
