Without him it would have been a much more annoying ordeal. Both Harvey and Joseph helped guide my mother through medical issues. Still ongoing, and still helpful. The office is also beautiful! Nice waiting room, and the rest of the staff is very welcoming.

Mr. Arnoff served as my divorce lawyer over a period of over 4 years. As you might imagine, any…read moredivorce lasting that long will be a source of misery. Mr. Arnoff did little to cushion or moderate that misery however, and added substantially to it with his astonishingly high fees - I paid him something approaching $100,000 to get a result that I could probably have achieved with no counsel at all. But I hear that for some people, he does wonders. He just didn't for me. And I don't see any other reviews here...

I am an attorney who retained Frederick "Rick" Foster, Esq. to represent me in a Suffolk County…read moreSupreme Court divorce case in 2002 (Index No. 01265- 02). His performance was a disaster for me. My ex-wife and I settled in open-court a year later on January 15, 2003, and Mr. Foster recited the terms but amazingly failed to address a necessary element entitling me to that divorce. My ex-wife then met John Ray, Esq. at the courthouse and began co-habiting with him, which continues to this day, and he undertook her representation by filing a motion to vacate the settlement due to Mr. Foster's failure to meet all the statutory requirements in the settlement. Judge Emily Pines misguidedly granted the motion rather than force my ex-wife to file an appeal, so I was remarried by operation of law. The tens of thousands of dollars I paid her in the settlement was considered marital money and not credited in the final outcome, and that drained my cash. I had closed my law practice and building business in 2002, and found myself between a hard place and a rock. Mr. Foster appealed Judge Pines' order with a lightweight brief and we lost. In Tarone v. Tarone, 25 A.D.3d 779 (N.Y. App. Div. 2006), the court said, "Open-court stipulations are judicially favored, and will not be set aside absent fraud, overreaching, mistake, duress, or unconscionability.... However, in the instant case, in view of the determination that the plaintiff failed to establish his entitlement to a divorce, the stipulation of settlement should have been vacated....The stipulation cannot be considered a valid postnuptial or "opting out" agreement pursuant to Domestic Relations Law § 236 (B) (3)." Mr. Foster's lack of attention to detail, possibly due to his then frequently nagging migraine headaches that he really should have disclosed to me before taking my case, changed the course of my life. Due to his mishandling of the stipulation of settlement, my divorce went on for several years, and after Mr. Foster billed me $96,000 for his fees in 2007, I had no choice but to shamefully file personal bankruptcy. With a second divorce process came nine years of dealing with issues, and the last appeal was decided in 2011. By then, I was financially devastated and renting a little house in eastern Connecticut. I am just now, 16 years later in 2023, financially recovering fully from Mr. Foster's error. Let the facts speak for themselves about Mr. Foster and his conduct in my divorce case. Now let the truth be known that choosing Mr. Foster as my divorce lawyer was unequivocally one of the worst decisions of my entire life, the most impacting on my lifestyle, and the most costly to me personally. I should never have trusted him with my rights and my security. If you want to contact me for any reason, please use my website contact form at TaroneEsq.com.

I had a very lengthy & difficult divorce proceeding, which also included the setting aside of my prenuptial agreement. Rick and his team are knowledgeable and professional. They know the court system well & are respected by the court. Rick has an extensive, accomplished law career and chooses his team well. Alex & Eric are savvy, professional and know the law. While neither party will be truly happy at the end and the divorce proceedings cost a lot of money - Rick and his team did their best to accomplish what I needed and will do their best to keep you as calm as possible through the process. I made the right choice with Rick.
