He was very knowledgable about the issues discussed and eminently fair in both handling how to proceed with me as a client and describing what he could bring to the table. While we didn't ultimately work together, it's because he thoroughly reviewed my documents and listened, and help me realize what the core issues were, for which his services were not necessary. He is the right mix of someone who delivers value, empathy and competency for his clients, and I would trust him for any legal issues in the future.

I was charged non stop for communication on things that we've already discussed before. Then towards the end of the divorce, I was handed off to another lawyer which, I was then charged for this lawyer to look over my files and send me her own emails, when I never even agreed to another lawyer. Recently I went to her for help with my ex not following our agreement and parenting time. She could care less and basically just wanted me to hire her again without offering any advice on what I could possibly do. I think she's just money hungry and can care less about truly helping you.

This review is for the office of Ty Hyderally. In my review I would like to not only offer my A++…read moreand or 5** review to the team at Ty Hyderally but also offer some personal advice of what I learned along the way in having dealt with an unsavory employer. I took my case to several firms and they were either short, rude, condescending or all of the above. The office of Ty Hyderally was co-council for my case and Ty and his team were brought on like Mariano Rivera in the top of the 8th. Ty is a very smart attorney and he cuts right to the chase. His understanding of the law is exemplary. The attorney who brought him on was wise because Ty is an expert litigator and the man is prepared to go the distance. I read up on many of the cases Ty had online and it was clear I was in the right hands. For any person looking to take on an employer the office of Ty Hyderally offered the most sage and valuable advice along every step of the way. Here are some key takeaways they offered which proved to be invaluable. 1. MAKE A TIMELINE - I cannot stress how valuable this is. Time flies and 3 months becomes 1 year and if your opponent is covered under insurance you will be asked 100x the same series of events and a consistent timeline proves very valuable in the long haul. During discovery the documents that coincide with your timeline should not be lost due to lack of creating a formal DATED TIMELINE. 2. BE PATIENT. My case involved smoking gun evidence and while you may think this makes things cut and dry it doesn't necessarily speed up the process. Law is often a game of patience and while you never know how long it will be played you certainly get comfort knowing what inning your in. Ty Hyderally is EXCELLENT at explaining timelines for motions and procedures. 3. NEW JERSEYS BEST EMPLOYMENT LITIGATOR IS TY HYDERALLY. I had the counsel, the most respected experts, and the best TEAM. IT WAS A TEAM. If you think you will file a suit and not have your hands full post filing from my experience you will be wrong. You will be faced with many documents & procedures & Ty's team keeps you on track in producing important documents and outlines that explain your case to the court. You are not going to sit on your hands & have everything done for you. Ty's office is a legal guide & world class assistant in making your case alongside you. THEY HELP YOU HIGHLIGHT & TRIM DOWN FOCAL POINTS TO YOUR STRONGEST POSITIONS. 4. Managing emotion - bottom line is that in a suit you will go through a series of emotions. The biggest accolade I can give to Ty's team is that they slowly through the process divorce you from raw emotion. Things you think matter & are material often are emotionally driven, and in many cases detract from the core issues & strong points that should be the focal point. DOING THIS TAKES PATIENCE & SKILL. Skill to help me leave my emotion at the doorstep and skill to help me focus on points that are undeniably strong. 5. Ty Hyderally HAS QUALITY BEDSIDE MANNERS AND HELPS YOU GET YOUR LIFE BACK. At times I'm fairly certain my hot running emotion drove him mad, he kindly cut me short APPROPRIATELY and kept me on task. I learned to trust his quality judgement. I received weekend calls from him personally to review my case and keep me abreast of next steps so I always knew where I stood in the process 6. THE BEST EMPLOYMENT LAW FIRM THAT LITIGATES BELONGS TO THE OFFICE OF TY HYDERALLY. - Not only did Ty create a positive outcome for me he did it with grit and class along every step. Parts of the law process are gritty, tedious, and redundant to the point of exhaustion. THIS MAN WILL NOT QUIT NOR WILL HIS TEAM From start to finish Ty's team took me across the finish line. In a simple nutshell here is what he did: 1. Listened. 2. Advised and Guided. 3. Never gave up. 4. Put bad employer in their place. THANK YOU TY! FOR BELIEVING IN ME AND MY CASE. I HAVE MY LIFE BACK THANKS TY HYDERALLY!

As the defendant's attorney, Ms. Willitts decided on her own to create the divorce document (charging me), she appears to have accepted a bribe from the other attorney to blow the case. Ms. Willitts created a 2 inch thick [EXPENSIVE] divorce decree hiding a plethora of penalties and extra payments. Including a $50k cash bribe paid to the claimant to "release custody rights" that Ms. Willitts "negotiated & claimed was typical". We already had the custody agreement IN PLACE! [the $50k bribe requirement came later.]. By the time Ms. Willitts was done, she had tricked me out of everything I own, leaving me in debt (versus the original split of ~$300k to each party). Loss: -100% house equity. 85% of my personal premarital retirement account. All my personal stock accounts & bank accounts. My vehicle. My right to work. Ms. Willitts handling of the case forced me to take a loan for $50k to pay the bribe after everything else was secretly given away. Ms. Willitts appears to have intentionally destroyed my life to improve her own. Run.

We googled the client's name and called him up to ask him what he thought of them before we hired them. The former client immediately and strongly responded "They are the best and no one is better!" Based on that call, we hired Yudes and his team and we are so glad we did. We only wished we had found them earlier before we hired two other family law attorneys and firms in NJ who were no where near as good as these guys. We are both (non-family law) NYC corporate attorneys who can appreciate good lawyering and these guys are top flight! Their command of the law, and their ability to understand and weave the facts of our case with the law to create clear, concise legal arguments, is stellar. We were in awe of their legal drafting and their oral argument skills. The very experienced head judge Yudes argued before for our case was hanging on every word Yudes said and appeared to agree with every legal point Yudes made. It doesn't get any better. Yes, they are expensive, but they are worth it! We previously hired two other NJ firms who also were expensive and were supposed to be good, but they weren't even close to being as good as these guys are and they each made mistakes and missed things that cost us more money in legal fees down the road.

I was told today that they would not take my Social Security disability case, and the reasoning I was given was because I am young and my conditions are primarily mental health/neurodevelopmental. I guess only physical disabilities count, and young people can't possibly be disabled. I understand that a law firm can choose which cases they take, but this was an incredibly frustrating and discouraging experience. Mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions can absolutely prevent someone from working, regardless of their age. A complete waste of my time. I wish this firm had been more upfront about what types of disability cases they are actually willing to consider before having me go through the process of contacting them.
