Ilana was the best expierience I had with any lawyer. She was efficient diligent and executed everything we discussed perfectly. Her work is flawless!!! She was able to deliver all my concerns and my terms were met in full. She was 100% dedicated to my case, and really took care of me, which is all you want when feeling so vulnerable.

She was amazing. She's really responsive and actually cares about people. I never thought I'd make a good review about a lawyer but she definitely chanhed my mind. If I need any legal help, she'd be my first stop. Wish there were more lawyers like her that cares about you more than the money..

I am so grateful for Ilana Plotkin Schauer’s help during my difficult divore. More than an attorney, Ilana acted quickly and efficiently on my behalf, as a friend would. She was patient, kind, professional at all times, and gave me the best legal represenation I could ask for. My divorce went through in a matter of a few months, and I could not be happier with the result of the dissolution. Thanks to Ilana’s hard work and expertise, I can move on with my life. I will absolutely be calling her office again should I need legal represenation.

Thank you, Ilana P Schauer for your kindness, brilliance, and expertise with my most difficult and litigious case. Your willingness to take your time to listen to my situation, be compassionate and effective helped the entire process be reframed in a more humane way. Before I entered your office, I had spent 15 years and thousands of dollars on several attorneys who were not able to resolve my case. In only 2 months, your office did what no others could do - finally settle my case. For over a year now, I have been free from legal harassment by my opponent. Since then, when any issue comes up, Ilana has been attentive and resourceful. I thank her from the bottom of my heart. I highly recommend Ilana Plotking Schauer and her team for any divorce and especially for the most difficult ones.

Getting divorced is, of course, one of the most heartbreaking and horrible experiences you could ever live through. It also makes you feel so alone and vulnerable... literally every aspect of your work and home life gets dragged out into the open, and one of the people you loved most in the world is now your worst enemy, using every tiny detail they can get their hands on to make you seem like *you're* the bad guy.
I interviewed a lot of attorneys to try and find one that really understood all that and, while they all paid lip service to the concept, only Ilana truly "got it." She was extremely generous with her time during the initial consultation and, although I could only afford her and her firm on a limited basis, she treated me like I was a longtime, high-paying client. She always made time to listen to me and my concerns, and when I started feeling lost and overwhelmed, she was a calming influence and helped me keep my mind and wits about me. I was so devastated at the time I felt like I could never get back on my feet, but seeing Ilana seemingly able to get me a good result when I thought for sure I would lose everything was the shot in the arm I needed to take a deep breath for the first time in a long time and realize that life could actually get better again.
THANK YOU to a wonderful attorney and powerful advocate! To anyone who reads this, look no further: THIS is who you need as your attorney!!!

IIana did an outstanding work on my child custody case. I hired IIana for consulting and document preparation because local counsel costs were out of control. IIana was very prompt, responding to my emails and questions related to representing myself pro se. I plan on using IIana again for future family-related issues.

I would recommend anyone that has a divorce /child custody case to contact Ilana Schauer at Kermish & Paletz LLP as she is not only informative but easy to talk to as well. Ilana has utilized her remarkable expertise to fight for my three children. She has been incredibly understanding, committed, caring, diligent and responsive. As someone who has interacted with numerous attorneys and judges over seven years, these qualities can be hard to come by. After a short time, I realized all I needed to do was supply information as requested and I could stop worrying about the outcome and leave it in Ilana's good hands.
In addition to being easy to talk to, providing clarity, and having compassion, Ilana was also great at suggesting ways to keep the overall cost down. I am extremely happy and grateful for her help and I highly recommend her services. Ilana is top notch and undoubtedly my number one suggestion for anyone looking for excellent counsel.

I was looking for a competent Family law attorney to review a legal document and began to search in both large well known firms and smaller ones when I was sent to Ilana as a referral from another (Real Estate) attorney that I knew and respected. Ilana was professional, extremely helpful, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. Her experience and knowledge saved me extra time, headache and money! I highly recommend anyone looking for legal counsel contact her.
