Tyler was a true professional from start to finish, and he made time to answer every question we…read morehad about our prenuptial agreement. My partner was initially hesitant to even sit down and discuss it, but he came around once he understood how important it was to talk through our family's financial future before getting married. We each had our own attorney, but my experience with Tyler was exceptional. He went above and beyond, responding to sensitive questions on his own time in ways that kept our negotiations moving forward, and we walked down the aisle with a signed agreement in hand. I can't overstate the relief I felt after each meeting with Tyler. He made a process that could have been stressful feel smooth and straightforward, and he eased every concern I had along the way. I highly recommend working with Tyler on a prenuptial agreement. These are hard but essential conversations to have with your partner, and having a skilled advocate like Tyler in your corner makes all the difference. Thank you for everything, Tyler. Our wedding day was perfect, and we're excited to start the next chapter as we grow our family.

I have referred her several times to friends going thru a divorce. She is a really wonderful lawyer.

Mediator was polite but either no experience dealing with narcissistic controlling individuals or…read moredid not care! Good couple's counselor if you need help with communication with your ex, but not a good mediator! Knowing my ex had an abusive past and police had been involved she'd still shut the door for "privacy" when she left or let him go on the entire duration of the mediation and take over the whole time so nothing got resolved when I urged for some firmness. Also felt pushed to agree to his many demands while mine were pushed in back burner. In the end it ended up being a lot more expensive because mediator let the time run and him take his time. She then submitted notes stating agreement to things I had not agreed to and making me feel guilty for not going back. You should use a lawyer instead! They are much better at this. Her background made this seem like couple's counseling which might be good if you are both sane caring individuals who need help with communication; not dealing with someone with past domestic violence and anger issues. She has not clue of the terrible legal ramifications of her notes and actions that now I have to deal with even after the mediation failed!

Now that I have been working with her, the reviews are all true. She is a straight shooter and keeps you focused on the issues. Divorce - particularly after 20+ years is very emotional. Attorney Ruggieri has taught me that you cannot let your emotions control the divorce process. Staying rational is critical to making good decisions. I feel comfortable and confident with Attorney Ruggieri. She is extremely knowledgeable and a very skilled negotiator. I highly recommend Law Offices of Lisa A Ruggieri for anyone seeking a divorce.

I reached out to Fields and Dennis to get information on Special Needs Planning/ documents and…read morelearn how they work. Aside from office staff being incredibly rude it seems Sheryl handles many areas of law and is not necessarily a "Special Needs" planner/ lawyer as she listed on the website and in her video. She seems nice enough in her video but when the office is so rude to potential clients that is a red flag. Its not 100% clear but it appears this is primarily a litigation firm that does estate planning on the side and then maybe?? has some interest in Special Needs? You can tell this from the fact they have an "intake" person - Kelly - who is quite condescending. Firms that take on cases have "intake" staff. This is not what one expects from an estate planning lawyer/office let alone one that claims to focus on Special Needs. This is particularly egregious as too many law firms and planners claim to handle Special Needs planning when really they just see as a slight variation on regular trusts - which is what causes issues for families down the road. They don't have the depth of knowledge or vested interest that TRUE Special Needs planners and lawyers have. Can only hope that eventually these type of law firms will catch on that having staff condescend to and treat potential clients rudely is not a winning formula.

Vicki Shemin and Jonathan Fields represented me for a simple divorce. It was a short-term marriage…read morewith no children. No discovery was done and we only appeared in Court twice, once for a motion hearing and again to present a full settlement agreement. The emergency motion was filed by my ex-husband and only necessary due to Attorney Shemim's advice for me to change the locks to our former marital home. This was an action I wouldn't have taken otherwise, ultimately escalated the amount of animosity in the case and the judge disapprovingly viewed as a form of self-help. Somehow this all amounted to attorney's fees exceeding $82,000, the last $19,000 or so I am being repeatedly hounded for while several requests to discuss my billing continue to be ignored. Their paralegal has an hourly rate comparable to what many firms charge for a mid-level associate, and over billed for simple administrative tasks (i.e. two hours to divide the numbers on my biweekly paycheck in half). This was not a high-net worth case, there were no unusual or extraordinary issues to be dealt with, and the total amount billed for a matter that was resolved in less than a year actually exceeded the amount I received as a settlement. I would have ended up in a better position financially if I didn't have counsel at all. I ended up negotiating the final terms of the settlement directly with my ex anyway. Perhaps this firm is great for those who are extremely wealthy where the total amount of legal fees is of no concern, but for anyone like myself, making a living as an RN, expect to pay top-notch prices while consistently being treated as a low-priority client. There are certainly better options out there.

As I am writing this review (all my opinion) - particularly, if you are a man, remember that going…read morethrough or contemplating a divorce will be one the most gut wrenching, betrayal invoking times of your life with vulnerable and neediness thrown in for good measure. You will be seeking help from wherever / whenever you can get it and leaning on friends and acquaintances will NOT be an exception. You WILL need professional help - at least an attorney - most likely a therapist, support group, or other forms of help to get you through this. It will be one of the bleakest times of your life. While you are searching around for local support groups - you come across VESTA Group and WOW this looks like the group of Professionals that will provide you with all you need. They provide free meetings with Real Estate people, lawyers, Divorce Coaches, mediators, etc. - very, very, good - professionals giving up their time to help those who sign-up for the meetings. Each of the professional disciplines are given access to the meetings to discuss what is going to happen in the divorce and how they may be able to help. You are able to discreetly ask questions and the pro's are able to respond to your questions in a text-like manner. This sounds WONDERFUL - and for the most part - it is WONDERFUL and very pro-active support for you. I know with the build-up you are waiting for the "BUT" and there is a "BUT". Realistically, what is happening here is a "Meet and Greet". These professionals are GENEROUSLY giving up their evening hours to promote the services that they may offer to you during your divorce. It is actually a GREAT IDEA - you get to view and hear the advice of professionals and see them - in person (sort of - through Zoom). GREAT!! Unfortunately, we all have to keep in mind that they are trying to "soft sell" a service - which is inherent in what they are doing - and God bless them - they are donating their time in hopes of BOTH helping you and continuing their respectively business. So, let's ask what are the Code of Ethics of the VESTA Group. The following is what I was sent; "Vesta requires all participating professionals to adhere to ethical and professional standards, including confidentiality, professionalism, and compliance with applicable laws and licensing requirements." Unfortunately, doesn't specifically say a whole lot in my opinion. You will have to keep in mind - as mentioned - you are vulnerable and need to continually remind yourself that these professionals are SELLING YOU A SERVICE AS A BUSINESS - that is their job. Can sound like a "Win-Win" situation. Have any of you - reading this- been to an Annuities free dinner or a Trust Explanation free dinner? Well that IS THE MODEL HERE (without the chicken or fish). Nothing wrong with promoting yourself with the soft sell - free conference - free ask questions - free listen - free to leave. Remember - as all business transactions - particularly, if you are vulnerable - wanting to hear encouraging words - promises or accommodations; made verbally - over the phone are subject to the "Did I say that?" RULE - meaning - no matter how friendly, how inviting the deal seems - if it is NOT in writing - AGAIN, it IS SUBJECT TO "DID I SAY THAT?" RULE which means it is not binding or possibly, was never, realistically, achievable. Unfortunately, 'Caveat Emptor'
