Personal injury lawyers often get a bad rap, but I truly struck gold with Hammerman & Rosen…read more Working with Marvin Hammerman was an absolute pleasure. He was always available, attentive, and made sure every concern I had along the way was heard and addressed. He ensured that every injury I sustained was thoroughly considered in the settlement process. Marvin's experience and possibly more importantly, his intuition, were spot on every step of the way. I felt completely supported throughout, and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Matt's representation has been unparalleled in navigating through my current divorce proceedings…read moreand some of my darkest of days. Throughout this challenging process, Matt has consistently demonstrated an ability to listen attentively, understand the complexities of my situation, and then use his emotional intelligence and strategic approach to achieve the best possible outcome. In moments (and many of them) when allowing my emotions and fear take over and cloud my judgment, he's quick to step in to bring back logic and redirect my focus to what matters most - in my case, my daughter and our future. I cannot thank Matt and his team at Hammerman and Rosen enough for their unwavering support and dedication throughout this process, and I will forever be grateful for him and the clarity he has brought back into my world. Shelby, you are truly the best and have been so patient and supportive of me and my (more often times than not) messy and all over the place headspace. Nicole Z

I have asked this company repeatedly to stop sending me their junk mail advertisements, which I get…read moreregularly. They never stop! At this point it is harassment. They might be good at what they do. Might. But I kind of doubt it. If they can't handle a simple administrative task like removing me from their mailing list, I certainly wouldn't trust them to handle anything important for me.

I do not recommend Melissa Cipriano for Parent Coordinator (PC) services. In my experience, the PC…read morefrequently created unnecessary conflict instead of focusing on resolving issues, which often resulted in increased billable hours. Communication was one-sided, recommendations sometimes conflicted with the consent order, and concerns were not always addressed. Understand the NJ Parent Coordinator Guidelines, stand firm if the PC exceeds their role, and be cautious of excessive and/or unilateral (self generating) billing, which can quickly exhaust your retainer. In my experience, Melissa Cipriano's focus on generating billing hours often took priority over actual parenting coordination, which raised ethical concerns for me.

I've used Bart Lombardo and then the owner Melissa Cipriano who was just as bad. Unless you want to…read morewaste money and get nowhere, look elsewhere. It is mindblowing how unprofessional this office is. They make it sound like they are doing you a favor when you are paying $500/hour for them to do a job. They weren't prepared for court, missed deadlines, missed emails from the opposing attorney which was then used against me in court, would never provide updates, and dropped the ball on so many things I've lost count. Additionally, Melissa accidently sent me emails meant for other clients multiple times. One of those times it contained sensitive information with a disturbing video. It's unbelievable how unprofessional and careless this office is.

My oldest is in 5th grade. EVERY YEAR since we moved to this area where they use Life Touch, they…read morehave upset my daughter. In 2nd grade, they insisted on putting some stuff on her hair (her hair was fine). In 3rd grade, they refused to let her stand how she wanted. She just HAD to have her hand on her hips. 4th grade, she didn't want a photo because the previous years had been so traumatic. This year, she wanted one. She wanted to stand with her hands folded in front of her. The photographer said she looked like she was doing "the potty dance". They made my daughter cry, and I now have a photo with her scowling and a tear-stained face. So glad I spent money on this!!! I don't know where they get their photographers from. They never fail to make my daughter feel worthless and unheard. We won't be getting any more school photos.

This company is the absolute worst - not only should you personally avoid at all costs, but you…read moreneed to speak up at school functions, meetings, etc. and strongly advocate AGAINST this awful company and even more awful photographers! For a long time, our child's daycare had been using a local mom and pop operation, which delivered to us really nice photos at very reasonable prices. After repeatedly being "courted" by a Lifetouch rep, our daycare decided to try them out for the first time. I called an 800 number to try and get pricing info (since none was provided to our school), and spoke to a complete dimwit who informed me that yes, sometimes your kid will be blinking in every pic and that's tough luck because the photographers don't bother to actually look through the viewfinder when photographing. Does that even remotely sound like the way a photographer should perform their work? It goes on...Our picture day was scheduled for Monday 10/1, but our school was informed at 8pm on that Friday that "one of the photographers can't go, so picture day would have to be cancelled." Let me remind you that for us, all the other parents, and the daycare entity too, this was all our FIRST interaction with Lifetouch, and this is how they decide to make their first impression? By canceling one school day before the actual picture day? Now we're being informed they won't be able to come back until December, but I'm glad to know that our school is shopping elsewhere. PEOPLE: Shop local, take your business elsewhere, and let these losers wither away. Read the other reviews for all the Lifetouch locations - I'm shocked they're still in business...
