Eric helped me re-negotiate my alimony/child support agreement and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. He was determined to get the best results, patient and meticulous, and a pleasure to work with. He left no stone unturned, and had a keen eye for small issues that might lead to big problems if left unaddressed. He really went to bat for me, and I am very grateful to him.

It’s been 5 years since my divorce. I am finally able to write a review. The entire process was horrible and caused PTSD. Eric and his team made my situation the best it could be. He came in to my divorce as a second atty. First atty that I had for 9 months was horrible. Eric wrapped up my complicated case in 3 months - he was incredible! I am not from this arena of power house negotiating or strategy. I am so grateful he was up against my ex and his atty. He fought swiftly, intentionally and successfully. He understood my abilities and my lack of abilities. He fully read the opposing team and their antics/personalities/“wrong doings” to the max degree. He was emotionally there for me…as I felt scared and weak. Being a stay at home mom is a wonderful opportunity I was afforded in life. But a divorce process is extremely intimidating to this inferior position. When there is a sense of no control or ability to access family money-this feels like drowning. Eric was a gentleman and moved with professional integrity while being challenged with extreme undue stress from the opposing team. If you feel like an underdog-you need Eric-I can only speak from that vantage point. I am better than ever-it’s taken me time to move past the negative experience. My financial situation and future are stable thanks to this team…they play fair and win. I will always chose to move in life with integrity - exactly how Eric operates!

Upon contacting Eric for an initial consult, he made me aware that his initial fee was to donate to a children’s charity close to his heart. This spoke volumes to me. I could tell from the start of this initial conversation that he was compassionate, and upon conclusion of the consult, I knew that he was not only compassionate but extremely knowledgeable, professional and the type of attorney I wanted to represent me. He continued to impress me throughout my divorce proceedings. After the consult, I hired Eric as my divorce attorney, and it was one of the best decisions I made. Eric was professional, organized, meticulous, compassionate, and supportive during a turbulent time in my life. He not only gave me guidance and his expertise throughout the divorce proceedings, but he also was very emotionally supportive when necessary. He gave me a clear understanding of the process and what options existed in my particular case. Eric along with his associate and staff were very responsive and considerate throughout my divorce. They were truly amazing, and I would highly The Law Office of Eric R. Posmantier for anyone seeking a professional, caring, compassionate attorney who knows when to stand up for his client and is able to negotiate a fair and favorable outcome. You will not be disappointed in this decision.

I would highly recommended Eric and his office. I had a very productive experience with them helping me navigate my divorce, which involved numerous "curveballs". He was excellent in ensuring I was informed and prepared for each step of the process and helping me achieve my objectives. He is also friendly and great to work with, especially in helping me think through the proper approaches to resolutions. He is very knowledgable given his experience, both in the law and local characteristics of the process. Finally, he practices collaborative law, which is a major plus, as avoiding trails is a major cost and emotional benefit.

My legal journey through my divorce proceedings was not an easy one. The family court system is not a pleasant place. But, I was lucky to hire Eric's office to represent and guide me on this path. Eric is the ultimate professional - knowledgeable, quick on his feet, prepared, great communicator, and was always a fierce defender of my interests. He showed compassion and empathy, and always balanced every decision with the goal of reaching the best possible final outcome. I cannot emphasize enough how instrumental Eric was in resolving my case, and not once I had a reason to doubt his judgement. When it was time to make decisions, I was, without exception, very comfortable listening to Eric's advice. Last but not least, Eric was always cognizant of the emotional toll a prolonged legal process can have on his clients, and more often than not offered his support and guidance to minimize that cost. For all that, I'm honored to call Eric my friend.

I hired Eric twice in the last 20 years. Initially, when I first got divorced and the second time, recently, when we revisited my alimony agreement. He always listened to everything I had to say to him and always gave incredible advice. I tell everyone that he saved my life. He's the best lawyer you could hire. His reputation is is top of the line in the Fairfield County area.

I knew from the outset that Eric was the perfect choice to represent me during my divorce. We met on a Zoom call during Covid and unlike other lawyers I met this way who sat behind their desks, Eric stood in the middle of his office wearing earbuds and explained his philosophy to get me through the experience. He wanted the process to be as painless as possible for me, both financially and emotionally, and with each step along the way he held true to that philosophy. He was stern and protective when he needed to be, but he also knew when to back off. When progress was slow, my confidence in Eric’s legal and personal advice made it possible for me to put the divorce proceedings on the back-burner so that I could live my life. When I needed outside advice, Eric quickly put me in touch with the proper experts. Despite the obstacles, he eventually got us to mediation, and was instrumental in avoiding a long, expensive legal battle for which I am eternally grateful.

I can attest, firsthand, as to the very special person (and attorney) that Eric Posmantier is. He ushered me years ago through my divorce, shoring me up when I needed. I don’t know what I would have done without him those many years ago.

An absolutely amazing human being and team. They are knowledgeable and caring, especially during some of the most emotionally difficult times in one’s life. I could not recommend Eric and Kim more.

I highly recommend the Law Offices of Eric Posmantier. Professional and attention to the smallest details, Attorney Posmantier will champion for you until the end. Thank you so much for giving me peace of mind throughout my divorce.

Eric and his whole office were a tremendous support through the divorce process. He consulted with me long before filing and saw me through setting up a QDRO process with a colleague. He has superb ethical standards and I always felt his advice was coming from both a legal standpoint and the best interest of my general well-being. I feel incredibly lucky to have had his service in a very difficult process. Based on some limited research early in the process, I think his fees are a bit above average for the Fairfield region, however his counsel was superb and actually made the cost seem very reasonable. I'd offer Eric my highest possible recommendation to anyone in my circle who was looking for counsel in a divorce or divorce related proceedings.

Eric assisted me in achieving the correct child support number post judgement as well as retaining my former husbands tax records. Because of this, and his hard work, I was allotted the highest amount possible by the courts. Eric superseded my original intentions. He treated me with the upmost respect, was easy to speak with, always available to me and I would recommend him to my family and friends. After two tries at other lawyers, I was able to give my problems to him and feel like I could rest easily knowing he had my back.
