I really hate to give one star on Yelp but I think it's fair here to give one star. I wanted to…read morehire the attorney to work on my NJ based divorce case. The attorney said he was able to work on it even without the NJ bar. I was like okay since my case was very straight forward. After a month since we started the case, I haven't heard any progress and my ex was rushing me everyday. I decided to send Leon an email. After a few weeks past, I didn't hear back from him and then I called the office. The receptionist, who picked up my call, sounded clueless. She asked me to spell my name at least 5 times and I felt that she was very annoyed with my long last name. I asked her to let Leon know to reply my call or email. However, I never got the response. A week later, I decided to switch the attorney and then finally I heard back from Leon. And he added some statements in the drafted settlement document from the opponent attorney, which didn't apply anymore. It costed me almost $1000. I am very disappointed that a almost 5 star attorney on Yelp provided a 1 star service to me. The divorce process was already depressing and this didn't help at all. Please stay away from this place.

I'm regards to the service of Rachel Partyka…read more I wound up in Rachel's office on a hope and a prayer to get through a divorce and win custody of my children. It was imperative that they be saved from a dangerous and neglectful situation. With hard work, compassion, diligence and constant communication Rachel made my dream come true. I was able to have more than favorable divorce settlement and more importantly full custody of my children. One might think that is a novelty in NJ but I also was able to watch her achieve this for 2 friends that I referred to her. Rachel's knowledge and experience made it possible to give my children the future they deserve. She is directly responsible for us being able to be a family. She remains in contact, checking up on myself and the kids. She might be my go to attorney but she is also now my friend. Thank you Rachel!!

Within just a few months Robyn was able to make a breakthrough with my ex-wife's attorney and bring the case to a close. Without Robyn's persistence and direct approach, as well as her kindness and empathy for both sides, I'm almost certain the case would still be ongoing. After it was resolved Bari herself took the time to call me and see how I was doing. I would recommend her firm and Robyn to anyone looking for someone to be their best advocate during a difficult time, or maybe even someone like me who needs a change to get to the finish line.

She told me the hard truths right from the start. There was no sugarcoating, no false promises. She's a total straight shooter, and in a situation like this, that's exactly what I needed. It wasn't always what I wanted to hear, but it helped me make real decisions instead of living in denial. She takes the initiative without me having to chase her down or beg for updates. She's always two steps ahead, thinking about what needs to happen next. Super involved, very personal, like she actually cares about how this affects me and my life, not just another file on her desk. She got me remote court appearances when I really needed that flexibility, which made a huge difference with my schedule and stress level. And the communication? Unreal. Emails at all hours; early morning, late night, weekends. She was always prompt with her responses and never left me hanging wondering what was going on. If you want someone who will fight for you, keep it real, and actually be there when you need them, she's the one. Highly recommend.

I was served divorce papers and saw that I needed a person who is genuine and actually knows what to do for the benefit of a family. I spent a lot of time going through superlawyers, reading profiles, and AVVO and then I came across Debbie's bio. I was panicked, but when I spoke to her I knew I had found the right person, someone trustworthy and who could understand, so I retained her on the spot. In what seemed to be only a few hours, immediately my life began to change again, but now instead of more losses, the positives began to show up. She was able to secure overnights with my young children that I had missed for months! She was even able to help me graciously handle the other firm and thanks to that I was able to receive a refund (I'm told this does not happen often). The contentious divorce matters are still pending and Im certain they will work out, happy to update this review at a later time. Debbie has been able to provide a solid framework and plan for this divorce action, and has given me more certainty to move quickly and start new. Debbie has great instincts for communication and understanding and this is what you need when asking someone to fight for your rights on your behalf. I will and do recommend the services she and her team provide to anyone who's feeling angry, betrayed, lost, stuck, or even hopeless. You will come to see, "you're going to make it." It's always been about the client and their family.
