I had a horrible experience with this law firm. On the first interview, I asked for a shark lawyer and was then given a goldfish. I was originally told the whole thing would cost me around $5000 and it wound up costing me over 30,000 without ever going to court !!! My lawyer Never fought for me, misunderstood what I was saying, emailing, and requesting, over and over again. multiple times. Dan continuously charged me to rewrite emails that he had mistakenly written with incorrect information and then proceeded to charge me for all of them. I complained about his lack of involvement and interest in my case to his boss multiple times and into the fact that he was spending ridiculous amounts of time, supposedly based on his billing, I was charged for those conversations as well by her. His hourly rate wound up really being double because it would take him twice as long as the average lawyer to make a phone call or send an email! At the end, I felt bullied and coerced by my own lawyer to sign papers that I did not want to sign and ended up getting screwed in my divorce because of it. If I didn't know better, I would literally think he was actually working with my ex-husband's lawyer! Absolutely the worst law firm ever. read more

After 9 years from my divorce I reached out to ask questions about Social security and if my x can make a clam. Because, my x stated she spoke to a lawyer and I will be paying her past 67. I was under the impression once I turn 67 I am free and clear of an additional obligation to her. Not sure why Moskowitz didn't disclose to me. And now I might have a problem I never knew about. Updated. The firm offered for me to come in for an additional consultation. I declined read more

Natalie Cardona is an exceptional family attorney. She helped my niece through a very stressful and emotional legal situation with so much compassion, professionalism, and strength. From day one, she made sure my niece felt supported and understood, and she walked her through every step of the process with patience and clarity. Natalie was responsive, honest, and fought hard for a fair outcome. I'm truly grateful for everything she did for our family. If you're looking for a family lawyer who genuinely cares and knows how to get results, Natalie is the one you want on your side. read more

I highly recommend Dan Pelic to anyone navigating the process of divorce. From our first consultation, Dan always took time to explain my options clearly, ensuring I understood every step of the process. Communication was excellent throughout. His responses were prompt and thorough. I'm glad I chose Moskowitz Law Group. It was a pleasant experience. read more

The most unethical family law group in Bergen county!!!! Their handling of my divorce case was careless, and they seemed more focused on billing hours than actually resolving the matter. And if you hear"for the best interest of the children" - Don't buy it!! No one in that toxic backstabbing system cares about "your children" but you!! read more

I was pleased to have been met by the owner of the firm during the consultation and Galit assured me I'd be well taken care of by the attorney assigned to me. I absolutely was. Genevieve clearly always had my best interests in mind throughout my divorce negotiations, and she was also very sensitive to the emotional aspects that arose. Her experience helped to set my expectation and I appreciated her step-by-step guidance throughout the process. I was also very impressed that Galit continued to carve out time with me to discuss any issues I might have experienced, and to ensure I was satisfied with the service. read more

I obtained the services of Steven Cohen of Moskowitz Law Group. My legal matter was resolved quickly. The communication with Mr. Cohen and also his staff was excellent, and the balance of the retainer was returned to me in a reasonable amount of time. Hopefully I will never need their services again, but I know where to go if I do read more

Seth Parker really looked out for my best interest during a difficult divorce. Always returned my emails/calls right away.

Genevieve has been beyond stellar. We had a pretty unique and quite erratic situation and Genevieve was able to to sort through all the chaos and present a crystal clear picture of what was really going on. We always felt like she cared about our situation and she is very down to earth. Very satisfied with our decision. read more

I needed to quickly hire a good divorce attorney and scheduled interviews with two of them who had been referred to me by another attorney. However, after first meeting with the Moskowitz Law Group I was so impressed that I hired them on the spot and cancelled the other appointment. I clearly made the correct decision. They were very professional, informative and understanding of my situation. I had an excellent senior attorney working on my behalf, Eilish, and Galit the owner was available when thorny issues arose that needed a second look. Time was of the essence in filing the complaint due to the four year period of a short term marriage coming up soon, and it was also imperative to meet the deadline at the end of the year for tax purposes. Moskowitz law firm made both dates easily. In addition, I felt that their billing practices were extremely fair. There was no padding of billable hours or unnecessary work which can happen with some law firms. I heartily recommend the Moskowitz Law Firm. -Robert read more

Worst lawyer ever.. All your money will go away with a blink of eye...And they will ask for another and another retainer..You will pay fancy charges, paralegals !! Please look for a small firms read more

From the very first time I visited the office I was treated with professionalism. Galit has a wide range of experience in the field and you get that feeling from her Immediately, she just makes you feel right at home. She also has a great sense of humor which makes difficult topics easy to address. from my personal journey, I definitely recommend the moskowitz law firm. I like that I was understood of every aspect of my personal situation and I can honestly say my divorce was a smooth process. Thanks to Galit and Steven I have a custody agreement that I'm super happy with, could have not asked for a better outcome. read more

There is a talent in knowing when to come in guns blazing and when to come in softer for the benefit of the client. With Galit and her team I felt soooo protected from what was probably a more epic case dealing with opponents that played dirty lying games, were irrational and senseless. Galit was able to secure a more than expected support amount during the course of the year and a half proceedings. I was communicated with thoroughly, honestly and personably as well as offered legal counseling at every turn putting me in control. The Moskowitz firm is very well know at the Bergen Courthouse and the firm knows the courthouse so it felt like home court advantage that they easily navigated. During the worst time in my life, the best thing I did was secure Galit and her team by my side. Thank you soooo much Galit!!! My kids and I are better off for knowing you. read more

Very pleasant experience. Mr.Pelic was helpful, easily accessible and went above and beyond to talk to me about my case and walk me through every step of the way. My case was resolved in a quick and timely manner. I would highly recommend using this firm and especially Mr.Pelic as your attorney. read more

Galit Moskowitz and her team were amazing! They were extremely professional and walked me through everything I needed to know about the divorce process and what to expect. They were there every step of the way and I felt confident that I was in good hands during a very hard and stressful time in my life. Truly the best out there! I highly recommend Moskowitz law group if you are looking for a great divorce attorney. read more

It's the same review I have written on Google. I do not want anyone else to go through what I have while working with them. Divorce is a very very tough and emotional journey but if you want to have any shot of doing it right, my advice will be to not work this law firm. Rest assured you will not be working with Galit, and whoever she will be assigning to the case will not be qualified. They are irresponsible, under prepared, and do not have the best interest of their client - they only care for their $$$. I just hope no one has to go through what I have while working with them. Please choose another firm! read more

I've contacted the Moskowitz Law Group after i was referred to them by my brother. This was one of the greatest decisions in my life. Steven Cohen was responsible for my case, and as you can see from the other reviews. He was highly educated, responsible, and understandable about my situation. Both having to deal with my difficult situation that I was in and providing the a gentle hand to guide me in the direction I needed to go was greatly appreciated. Even to this day after everything has been settled, Steve is still here to follow up with me and ask about my family. Steve and this lawfirm knows how to handle a case before and after. They come highly recommended. read more

I highly recommend Steve Cohen for a family attorney. Steve is very compassionate and knowledgeable on family law. . He went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure I received everything I needed to win my case.. He would call back and email in a timely manner. Steve is very caring, helpful and professional. He understand how stressful it is for a person to go through hard times read more

The only person I missed when my divorce was final was my lawyer! I honestly love the Moskowitz Law Group. During such a difficult time, I felt like I was among friends. From the sweet girls at the front desk to Galit and Steven! The whole team was very professional and caring. They were always available to answer my calls or emails and never made me feel like any of my questions were silly. They were very knowledgeable and tough with getting me and my children what we needed. I highly recommend the Moskowitz law group! read more

I could not be happier and more proud to have Galit Moskowitz and her team of professionals represent me in my case. Every step of the way I had an immense amount of confidence in her ability and professionalism. Galit is well respected by her colleagues and you can see why when you see her in action. She is brilliant and strong as well as empathetic to her clients during what could be a very trying time for many. I could not imagine having any other attorney or achieving such an outstanding outcome in my case without Galit. read more

Nothing but wonderful things to say about moskowitz law firm. Seth Parker was attentive ,honest and represented me during my divorce always on top of the situation. Thank you to all my life is wonderful now . read more

Galit as well as Eilish and the rest of the team at Moskowitz Law group are the most well respected, educated, hard working and caring people I know. They also happen to be the best divorce and family law attorneys- period! Galit stayed by my side in court with me for 8, yes 8 hours because the other side kept refusing to agree to anything we brought forward. At 5:30pm., after 8 hours of the other side refusing to come to any agreement, Galit appeared in front of the judge and got the outcome we wanted. She will not give up- Galit and Eilish fought tirelessly to literally get my son back to me and carry me through one of the worst times in my life. They gave me my voice back when it was stripped from me. They fought for me even after my divorce was over!! There is no better feeling in the world then walking into court with this fierce and well respected team by your side- literally. Don't even bother looking for anyone else, just retain this firm. read more

This is the worst law firm I have ever dealt with! They lure you in and constantly make false promises. They dragged our divorce on for almost two years with none of the results they promised. Eilish was the first attorney to work on the case and then when she couldn't handle it the owner of the firm, Galit had to take over and she couldn't get the job done. The judge would constantly scream at them because they were never prepared, it was so embarrassing! They would have months to prepare and show up to court with nothing done and then would tell us it's a process. The abuse of fees was beyond anything I have ever witnessed. They would stall and file ridiculous motions just so they could bill more fees. Stay far away from this firm, they are the type of attorneys that give all lawyers a bad name! read more

I had a few different retainers with this law firm. The issue that happens is it is very expensive to switch because a law firm knows your background and to switch, the time spent educating a new firm is expense. On August 21st, 2013 I signed my first retainer. Here and there, I kept asking for an update on my case to my lawyer and received generic response. When she would reach out to me, I always provide the information within 24 hours. Finally a week before Christmas, my lawyer calls me and tells me that she is leaving the firm but I could go with her, but I have to sign a new retainer. I said I couldn't because I don't have money (plus she hasn't really did anything) and was wondering what is the status of child support claim. She said child support doesn't start until it is filed. WHAT!! I hired a lawyer to know the law and it was 4 months and nothing was done on my case and I was unable to collect child support. I should have switched to a new firm (not the one she was going to) at that time but I didn't. Almost my full initial retainer ($5000) was used and nothing was filed with the courts yet. I was assigned a new lawyer, but it took until Feb until he was caught up (again more $ because he was not familiar with the case) and delays do to being near the holiday. 6 months passed by until documents were filed to start child support for my 2 kids which was over $10,000 that would have been award if filed timely. Throughout using their services, I felt that they did a good job but they did items that weren't needed to do just to spend more $. 1. I had a lawyer for a case and another lawyer was there to audit (learn from experience). It wasn't supposed to come at an extra cost, but I was billed because they both did work. That was true, but if I didn't say it was ok to audit, the 2nd lawyer would have done the work because he wasn't there. Here I thought I was helping someone learn, but meanwhile I was not helping. I was paying for it. If there was only 1 lawyer, I would have only been billed once. 2. I was near the end of my case and wanted to submit medical bills to the courts. I was told I had to do that through my lawyer now for my ex to acknowledge the bills. It cost near $200 for the paperwork for $250 claim and that was just to send to his lawyer. Now I have to spend additional $ to actually collect. In the end, it is going to cost me more $ to collect the $250 in medical expense. In hindsight, there was no need submit this paperwork to his lawyer. I could have went right to the courts and saved me that money spent on the lawyer. 3. After the last court appearance, I did not need a lawyer anymore. According to the law firm, I needed to file a substitute of attorney. More $ in services, postage, filing fees, etc only to find out that it was not required because more than 45 days since my last appearance. I thought that the initial lawyer was an one off situation only to find out, I was treated that was for 1.5 years. I lost out on 6 months of child support that should have been collected because the lawyer didn't file timely. Once there were new lawyers, they were doing everything above what was needed so I was being overcharged. I would recommend really doing research on lawyers. Just because they are nice doesn't mean they are going to charge everything and anything possible for your services. read more

The only in depth letter this law firm wrote on legal letterhead was a bullying letter to ME asking for my retainer to be refilled or they would drop the case. This was after they claimed to spend the original $5000 reading emails and reviewing the case and one 3-4 hour settlement panel appearance. read more

While the stereotypical "cold, straightforward" lawyer-ese may seem tough to handle in the middle of an exceptionally emotional process like divorce, in the end it what was I needed to get things resolved quickly and effectively. My counsel kept me focused, on-point, and pounded through an acrimonious beginning into a rapid, fair settlement. My top complaint is the nickel-diming that I assume is prevalent with most lawyers, such as a 4% charge on the refund of the retainer balance? Really, after tens of thousands of dollars, I need to get dinged for a small-change item like this? I guess at the conclusion, you're so glad to have it over with, they know you just don't care about a few hundred more lost dollars at that point. Bottom line is that they got things done for me with as little stress as possible, and I always felt like I had professionals in my corner. read more

Moskowitz Law Group, Attorney Steven Cohen was the most educated and responsible decision I have ever made in my life. I avoided this law firm at first due to the retainer which was a HUGE mistake. I found out just how quickly you get what you pay for. I wasted $3500 for an attorney, who did absolutely nothing and my child was taken from me for 7 months due to false allegations. Upon hiring Steven, I was made to feel at home right away. His extensive knowledge and experience was instantly noticed. Whats even more comforting is that you can feel his compassion and sympathy. Its almost like conversing with a friend. From the start, I had no doubt in his ability and professionalism would get me through the difficult times I endured and was still facing. To make a long story short, I have had Pudding Face for the last 24 hours. Steven went ABOVE AND BEYOND anything I would have ever expected. He turned all the wrongs into right and the past 7-9 months are a memory I will not be reliving. I feel like I have had a cement truck lifted off of my shoulders and myself, my wonderful girlfriend and most importantly, my child can move forward with life. The only negative thing I can say about him is that he's a Giants fan. If you can get past that, you'll be ok. I know this firm offers a free 30 minute consultation. You have zero to lose and I would not hesitate to recommend Steven to anyone. I have only met one other lawyer from this firm but with Lawyers like Steven on their staff, I can blindly say with 100% certainty I would hire any of them without question. Plus, they have all you can eat Jolly Ranchers with ALOT of Watermelon mixed in. If you don't like Watermelon Jolly Ranchers, theres something wrong with you. Steven, From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for everything you have done for us. You will never know how much it was appreciated and will be forever grateful. You are the man!!!! Mark, Kimberly & Morgan read more

I had Luther G. Jones, IV, Esq., as my attorney. He provided me exceptional service thru a domestic violence trial and a divorce. He alliavated my stress with court adjournments and kept open communication during the entire process. Luther made submissions of court documents timely and explained the purpose of the step by step process. My domestic trial was so emotionally draining for me but Luther stood by my side encouraged me that I was not alone. He stood by my side to the final hearing ending my court process. I would highly recommend the Moskowitz practice and Luther Jones, IV. esq. They are worth every penny I spent on legal fees. read more

Mr. Cohen did a phenomenal job representing me. His attention to detail left no rock unturned, and his logical and realistic approach made him very easy to trust. Steve seemed to know the process from every angle. He is remarkably proficient and down to earth. I recommend Steve Cohen to anyone looking for a family law attorney that gets results. read more

Galit Moskowitz is an expert in family law and she takes a personal interest in her clients. Galit understood the importance of obtaining Supervised Visitation for my daughter and she worked tirelessly to secure my daughter's safety. Galit prepared thoroughly for each court date and did not back down to any challenge my ex-husband's attorney presented. There was one instance: minutes after the Judge made a decision that she did not feel was in the best interest of my daughter and I, Galit continued to review her notes in the court room. She found the evidence she was looking for. Galit got permission to present it to the Judge, she ran out to the court parking lot to retrieve the other attorney. They sat in front of the Judge briefly and the court order was changed in the favor of my daughter and I. Galit was determined to do her very best for us! I am grateful for her help and dedication. read more
