Portrait of Abby M. Cettel, Attorney at Four Point Legal

Abby M. Cettel

Attorney

I recognize that a divorce impacts all aspects of my clients’ lives. The issues my clients face extend far beyond what we can litigate in a courtroom. I have genuine respect and compassion for people going through this process. As such, my practice is focused on providing supportive and candid counsel to my clients. I work hard to ensure my clients understand the legal issues of their case even when emotions are high.

I am highly organized, which leads to a very open line of communication between myself and my clients. My clients will always know what exactly is going on in their case - even if we are working through a complex legal issue. My dedication to communication along with strong research skills and excellent work product results in obtaining the best outcomes for each case.

When I am out of the office, I am typically traveling somewhere fun with my husband. My favorite destination is anywhere with a beautiful view and a glass of wine. If I am not out of town, you can find me spending time with friends and family.
