I have to say, Mr. Hark earned his way to be one of the top lawyers in New Jersey, and the sorrounding areas, for a reason. I am honored to have been able to have him in my corner throughout my case. He and his team never made false promises, and were always honest with me and my family. Knowing that there are several different factors when dealing with the courts, depending on the specifics of one's case, it is reasonable for people to feel somewhat skeptical at times. But, Mr. Hark never stopped fighting and I am appreciative of that. He held up his word all throughout the process. You can see his determination and tenacity speak through his words, and that drive also permeate through his team. And besides being an overall exceptional lawyer, he's just as great a person behind the suit; a honest man, a caring father, and a real person. I assure, that this is a real review from a situation that went on years and was finally resolved. And to mention, his brother also helped a family member of mine through a situation some years ago, which is why I was even recommended. Sometimes good people get caught and bad situations, and at those times, you want a lawyer who can see you for who you are, to speak for you when it matters. For anyone reading this, you would not be making a mistake choosing to go with Hark & Hark. You can take my word for it. And Mr. Hark, if you read this, I want to say thank you again, and my family thanks you, and your team. I wish you all peace, protection, and blessings on your journeys. I will continue to recommend you guys to those who may need it. Much respect.

Mr horicon his staff did an amazing job representing me in a motor vehicle crash, an eviction, a restraining order, and a criminal matter. He was able to successfully have the criminal matter dismissed, the restraining order dismissed and he just settled a car crash for me within 18 months from the date of the crash. His staff was always involved in on top of things and I was always aware of what was going on with all of my cases. He and his staff are very accessible kind and helpful at every turn every time I called. I felt like they were really involved with me and cared about me and my legal woes. I would be happy to call them again any day of the week. I also recommend them to anybody that's looking for an attorney to help them with a criminal, personal injury, family, restraining order, traffic, or other legal matter. Because of the way they helped me and handle my affairs I will always be grateful to Mr Hark and his staff.

I hired Mr. Hark for a very serious criminal charge in Camden County and then caught a second serious criminal charge in Camden county. Not only did he get me out of absolutely guaranteed state prison he got the case, remanded to municipal court, and got me straight probation on the second case. Did I say straight probation? I meant to say one year probation, not to not three or not four years probation. he did an amazing job. He was in touch with me every step of the way, constantly kept me informed, worked with me regarding my payment plan and inability to get a job given the pending criminal charges. He really was concerned about me and my well-being and my families well-being The entire time. There wasn’t a time I couldn’t get in touch with him… He’s always on call and available to help you and your family with our question. I absolutely highly recommend Mr. Hark for any criminal matter. I also understand that he has helped a few friends of mine with personal injury and Worker’s Comp. matters. They put me in touch with him and said the exact same thing. He is the man who is on your case and cares. I didn’t actually believe them until I experienced his personal service and his office service as well as his results. Now I found out from myself. It’s your return to. He is the go to guy.

Mr Sager & Patsy have been such a great help to me and my family. They were able to help me get certificate for u visa that a prior attorney was not able to get and said he couldn’t do anything else for me. My friend recommended this office and I couldn’t be happier. They have reasonable prices and they’re easy to work with. They have answered all my questions and concerns and prepared me for the road ahead. I’m glad to have my case moving to the next steps with this office. I would highly recommend this office to my family and friends. Can’t thank them enough.

I have used this firm twice now and the first case completely won me over. Every one knows me on a first name basis. Constantly communicating with their clients thru the process. I have used other firms and despite their empty promises they didn’t compare to the professionalism and honesty that I have received with this firm.
A particular shout out to Jordan Beard who will go the extra mile at any cost for his clients. Reassuring me that I’ve chosen the right group of attorneys to reapers sent me to their very best capabilities!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND RONALD SCHOOLS LAW FIRM TO ANY ONE TRYING TO MAKE THE DIFFICULT DECISION OF WHO TO HAVE REPRESENT YOU!

Attorneys Ron Sholes and Blair Butler at Ron Sholes P.A. fought to get a terrific auto accident recovery for me of $125,000. I am thrilled. I believe other firms may have settled for less, but I witnessed how Ron and Blair fight tooth and nail every step of the way for their clients in Jacksonville to get the maximum recovery for auto accidents. Ron and Blair stayed on top of my auto accident case and communicated with me every step of the way. Both Ron and Blair even gave me their cell phone numbers right up front--Wow! Everyone worked to provide an excellent experience and a great recovery. I will definitely recommend Ron Sholes P.A. to my family, friends, and coworkers for auto accidents and any other legal areas that the firm practices. I would give them 10 Gold Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ if I could. I guess I just did.

Mr. Kapesh Patel is an outstanding attorney, I was very excited and confident to have a childhood friend since 1988 to represent me. He helped settle a complicated dissolution of marriage when things were not looking good for me. I started my case with a different attorney who clearly could not handle my case properly, I was heading into my 3rd year of back and forth with negotiations. I knew it was time to bring in a professional, I reached out to Mr. Patel and subbed him in as my new attorney, after a few short months Mr. Patel reviewed my case, and was able to settle with the opposing counsel for a fair settlement. I was very happy with the outcome and the support that Mr. Patel offered me during this difficult time. He was always available and ready to answer my questions. I will always be grateful.
I would highly recommend Mr. Kapesh Patel for your family law legal matters; he will work for you.

Attorney Shapiro went above and beyond for me and my family. She genuinely cares about people and will work hard for what’s right. She blew my expectations out of the water. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer. And would never hesitate to hire her again. Everything was done in a very timely manner and she kept in touch with me every step of the way. I’ve used a lot of lawyers over the years and she’s the only one I would recommend to people!!

Attorney Shapiro exceeded all my expectations. My case was a wrongful termination and discrimination case, as I was laid off shortly after requesting PFMLA leave. During our consultation she validated that I had been wronged by my previous employer, and took the time to discuss the nuanced and sensitive aspects of my case.
The whole process took several months to play out and she was extremely professional and communicative throughout. Where Attorney Shapiro really shined was during the negotiation of the settlement. She was in constant contact to guide me through as we rejected the first several low ball offers. By the time negotiations were through, we had a fair settlement! Thank you Attorney Shapiro!!

I can't begin to thank Attorney Phillips for the awesome job he did for me in my divorce case. From the very beginning he was right there to fight for me and ensure the outcome was fair for me. I was able to reach out to him directly whenever I had any questions, he made sure all the right paperwork was filed with the court and most of all he got me the result I wanted. I would highly recommend Attorney Phillips to anyone who is looking for a great lawyer.

Before retaining a lawyer and filing for divorce, many people warned me that lawyers were soulless, especially in Las Vegas, and only concerned with lining their pockets with my money. I was told horror story after horror story from people who've dealt with lawyers here in Vegas. Scary stuff! Fortunately, not only was this NOT my experience at all, but my interactions with McFarling Law Group was, in fact, the best experience with lawyers I have ever heard of!
McFarling Law Group is the absolute BEST law firm in Las Vegas, BOTH HANDS DOWN!! Not only are they determined to fight for you and win, but they actually care about the people they are fighting for.
I was divorcing a certifiable, textbook narcissist. When I first met with Emily McFarling, I was in a tight spot financially and could not pay her entire retainer. Emily gave me a significant discount so that I could secure McFarling Law Group as my counsel.
My ex-husband hid money and assets, got people to forge documents and falsify information, lied throughout the case and caused the case to be prolonged many times by not following the judge's orders and by not submitting requested, subpoenaed documentation. McFarling Law Group made sure to get judgments against him for this.
This case went on for years! This, along with circumstances due to the Covid pandemic, eventually drove me into bankruptcy. Although I owed several tens of thousands of dollars to McFarling Law Group, when I consulted with them about having to file bankruptcy, they supported me in doing so even though it meant that my bill for their services at the time would be totally discharged. They also further reassured me that I would not lose their counsel because of this and they were true to their word.
We finally ended up settling before the trial was to begin. One of the agreements in the settlement was for my ex-husband to pay them. Anything that was left over for me to pay, they completely wrote it off and cleared my entire balance!
They held my hand through years of litigation, stood beside me, and fought for me the entire time. I had a team of various lawyers and paralegals working on my case. There was not one time that I reached out to them and was not able to get a hold of them. The communication was great and they always updated me on any new occurrences involving my case.
I can not thank them enough for everything they've done for me. They were truly a godsend and I will NEVER forget the kindness they showed me, nor the fight and tenacity they exhibited throughout my entire case. I am grateful beyond words and from the bottom of my heart appreciate each and every person who worked on my case over the years. I will be singing their praises and recommending them every chance I get.
So, if you want to be represented by lawyers with REAL fight, grit and determination, with never-ending-endurance and ingenious, strategic know-how, who yet maintain their compassion and humanity towards those they fight for, there is none better than McFarling Law Group! You can feel the difference! You can see the difference! And, their rankings and ratings in Las Vegas speak for itself!

Emily,
Has done a lot for my appeal custody/ paternity case. Emily took that challenge and was there for me through the process, she explained everything and just did a great job! I have been fighting my case for 5 years and Emily represented me and did an awesome job that without her and the McFarling group I would have not got what I have with my kids. I would definitely recommend her to anyone especially custodial cases. Thank you again!

I recently engaged the services of this law firm and attorney Wendy to assist with multiple legal concerns, including my divorce proceedings. The firm has been highly responsive to my needs. Despite having a complex case as I was unable to reach an agreement with the opposing party, Wendy provided expert guidance throughout the challenging legal process, resulting in a satisfactory settlement rather than a costly court battle. Wendy's wealth of experience and legal acumen was invaluable in achieving a positive outcome. I am extremely satisfied with my choice to retain this firm and Wendy as my attorney and would highly recommend her to anyone facing difficult legal matters.

First and foremost Samantha is so amazing. My sons mom relapseed on prescription meds. She was and is in complete denial to this day. We were never married. We opened the case June 9th of 2022. It took several court dates. Samantha has walked me through domestic violence, restraining orders, ex parte, three different Child custody investigations and Trail. When this all started we were 50/50 custody. At that time I had child support which I payed close to 1300.00 a month. Roughly a year later we went back into court because my sons mom was saying she was going to kill her self and that she was going to take are son with her! We head back to court roughly two days later. I received temporary full custody and she got supervised visits 3 times a week. Today is June 22, 2024 I Now have been to trail and i received full custody have are son. Are son is able to see mom three times a week that's if she show up to the facility. Samantha is incredibly fare when it comes to only stating facts and show prove to back it up is ideal. Her paper work is very very intense and is probably one of best at it as far as im concerned. Her communcation skills are very very good. If I asked a question generally within a few hours I got a clear answer. When we would have a court date I had sometimes lots of work to do on end. Looking for bank statements etc. Was not that hard because she kept me organized and she is very organized. She even had dead lines for me. I had so many things happening every week with my ex she pushed me to write in a journal. I do it to the day still which is extremely important. I was never once promised that something would happen in court. I was giving the worst out come and best outcome going into court every time. I personally got the best every time. I would never think about calling a different lawyer. I felt so comfortable with her that I had my moments and would cry. I no longer see Samantha as my lawyer I see Samantha as good friend. Not really sure what I would have done out her on my side of the street. You cannot go wrong with Samantha she is the best in Orange County. Take her advice and do what she says to do even if you don't want to. Im forever grateful. Kevin

I knew during my initial consultation Mr. Walters was the right man for the job. Mr. Walters didn't sugar coat anything and told me how it was. Not saying any divorce/child custody battle is easy, but my ex wife did things seasoned lawyers couldn't believe. Todd did his due diligence and was always prepared. I don't remember a single instance when Todd wasn't accessible. When you're going through a highly volatile, sensitive and emotional situation that requires guidance, accessibility is everything. I highly recommend Mr. Walters. You won't be disappointed.

I made the mistake of hiring a large nationally known law firm at the onset of my divorce, a very expensive mistake. After taking some beatings in the legal system, I decided to change my attorney and found Steve Gilpatrick and Brooke, his paralegal. This made all the difference. Steve and Brooke have been practicing law here for a long time. What that meant for me is they were current on all the laws, had seen the history of these laws, how they had been interpreted by the judges, and they had a very keen sense on any upcoming changes with the court system. You will want this in your legal representation. Steve has a strong base in the community and a solid history. Other attorneys have commented on his professionalism in working with him. You want this too.
In addition, Steve and Brooke are honorable people. As an Officer in the military that was very important to me. They guided me through the painful process of divorce in a way that I can look back on with respect and my integrity intact.
This law firm kept me focused and calm when I wanted to be anything but. They represented me fairly and in a way I respect. I went from a losing streak with the big law firm to a massive win gaining 50% custody of my children. Every father out there knows this is a tremendous victory. Please do yourself the favor of at least getting a consultation, it turned my divorce around.

Greg’s professionalism and dedication are truly commendable! He is not only incredible knowledgeable but also genuinely kind and approachable. What really stood out to me was how Greg treated me like a friend rather than just a client. If you are looking for someone who truly cares about their clients and goes above and beyond, look no farther than Gregory Duncan!

Thanks to Greg, I finally received my permanent residency!!
When we first filed my case a couple years ago I thought it was going to be a stressful and overwhelming process, but I never got that feeling knowing Greg had my back.
He is organized, punctual, and always called/emailed to give me updates on my case.
Thank you, Gregory S. Duncan, for changing my life!

Mr. Randy Medina was very professional and really knowable in regards to child custody and moving orders. He was very detailed in explaining what could happen if the decision was to go one way or the other. He made sure we understood what we were getting ourselves into.
One of the biggest attributes we loved from Randy was his research of the many previous cases that has happened and utilizing those examples to your specific case. During our court hearing for our final decision, we loved that he walked us through our stressful experience and really explained why this process would be best for our case. We actually learned a lot from him during our moving order.
We would like to thank Mr. Randy Medina and his team for working with us and fighting for our family to relocate. We highly recommend him and his team.

Randy and his team (in particular Brigitte), went above and beyond to make sure that the best outcome was realized. It took an amazing amount of patience, persistence, toughness (when called for) and foresight to successfully address a set of complex legal challenges in this case. Randy was always available – evenings and weekends if necessary – to listen to concerns and to respond to surprises that were encountered over the course of a long and protracted legal battle. He always kept his focus through the ups and downs on his winning strategy and execution. And in court, Randy effectively presented our case in a strategic and forceful manner resulting in a positive outcome. I highly recommend Randy and team to anyone in need of family law representation. Many thanks to Randy for a job well done.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal representation provided by Randy during my tumultuous divorce proceedings. From the outset, I knew I was in capable hands, but the outcome exceeded my expectations in every way.
Navigating a high-conflict divorce, especially with a narcissistic ex-spouse, is a daunting challenge. Randy not only provided expert legal guidance but also demonstrated unwavering support and understanding throughout the entire process. His strategic approach and meticulous attention to detail were evident from day one.
One of the most pivotal achievements was securing custody of my children and ensuring they could continue to live in the family home, which was crucial for their stability and well-being. Randy skillfully utilized discovery procedures to uncover critical evidence that exposed the controlling, harassing, and manipulative behaviors of my ex-spouse. This evidence proved instrumental in persuading the court to prioritize the best interests of my children above all else.
I highly recommend Randy to anyone facing a similar situation. His expertise in handling high-conflict divorces, particularly those involving narcissistic personalities, is unparalleled.
I am deeply thankful for his dedication and commitment to achieving a favorable outcome that has profoundly impacted my family's future.

Timothy Allan McCan II (TJ) is an excellent Attorney. He worked with me very closely, explaining everything to me, made it easier to understand what was happening or going to be happening. I was not happy with my first Attorney and TJ was recommended to me. I called him and explained my situation. I had a very comfortable and positive feeling after speaking to him. I called him the next day and stated I wanted him to represent me in my divorce. I am very happy with the outcome and he did me good.

The Miller Law is what all family law offices should be measured by. The level of professionalism, confidence, leadership, aggressiveness, knowledge, experience and caring like what I have received from Miller Law Firm is unsurpassed. Jeff, Sander and Lisa were totally understanding and not pushy and did everything on my terms. I felt relaxed and knew everything was taken care of by the best. Day or night they were there for me, constantly available to me by way of email or phone call. I never felt I was just another client or forgotten about. My case wasn’t easy, nor was I easy to deal with. Through numerous financial paperwork modifications, questions and revisions the staff was calm and all my issues were easily rectified. I thank God I chose this law firm. And special thanks to Sander, Jeff and Lisa at Miller Law for getting my Life back together.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
- Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
- Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
- Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.
Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.
What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?
A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:
- Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
- Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
- Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
- Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.
How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.
How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:
- Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
- Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
