She truly has fought for my Mother in court and so far has done an excellent job. I'm so happy to finally find someone who is dedicated, smart, caring and also keeps us in the loop by sharing all e-mails/communication. Will update when this is all over but Claire has been beyond helpful so far. She is tough and calls out the false allegations and "bs" the other side keeps on trying to do. The other side has been, in my opinion, very sneaky and unethical (again, my opinion and experience) and Ms. Scully has no qualms in bringing actual facts to shut down claims made. Will update as the case goes on but so far I'd recommend her if you need an Attorney who is not afraid to speak up on your behalf and truly wants the best for you. She has no issues being tough if need be and that is exactly what we needed. Thank you!

Approximately two years ago, I began attorney shopping after I was told by my now ex-wife, that she…read morewanted a divorce. I was betrayed, and trying to navigate through something that I have never experienced before. I did not want an attorney who would "throw wood into the fire," heighten my emotions, make me overthink things, or entice me to take unnecessary actions out of anger or emotion. I had two meetings lined up, one being with Steve. I felt that Steve fit my personality very well, and we have since developed a solid relationship and understanding that goes beyond business. Steve was a calming presence, completely fair, honest, and accountable throughout the duration of the divorce process. Also, Steve has a sense of humor that I greatly appreciate. On top of that, Steve is a great writer, very thorough with his work, and a very clear communicator. Last but not least, Karen and Val are extremely pleasant to work with; always there to help and assist. If you want an attorney with straightforward integrity, conscientious with your money, and gives extremely honest viewpoints based on his 30 plus years of experience, Steve is the attorney for you. Thank you for all the guidance and assistance, Steve. It will never be forgotten.

First, he had sent me a letter that had private information of another couple instead of my information. And he may have sent my information to someone else as well. Second, he sent me my ex husband's first response to my request on a Friday.

Soon after I had retained him I decided to hire someone who specialized in family law and international custody. He charged the retainer fee ($2500) and never provided any detail for how he used the hours. He said he would refund me and never did. I asked Mr Kroll a few times for a refund and he ignored me.

It was imperative that they be saved from a dangerous and neglectful situation. With hard work, compassion, diligence and constant communication Rachel made my dream come true. I was able to have more than favorable divorce settlement and more importantly full custody of my children. One might think that is a novelty in NJ but I also was able to watch her achieve this for 2 friends that I referred to her. Rachel's knowledge and experience made it possible to give my children the future they deserve. She is directly responsible for us being able to be a family. She remains in contact, checking up on myself and the kids. She might be my go to attorney but she is also now my friend. Thank you Rachel!!

Within just a few months Robyn was able to make a breakthrough with my ex-wife's attorney and bring the case to a close.

After it was resolved Bari herself took the time to call me and see how I was doing. I would recommend her firm and Robyn to anyone looking for someone to be their best advocate during a difficult time, or maybe even someone like me who needs a change to get to the finish line.
