Alan Augulis demonstrated his knowledge in the establishment of a living trust for us.

A Legacy Wealth Planning Portfolio was provided that explains everything in detail.

I called her office and Im surprised that she picks up her own calls NO Secretaries! She kept me posted at all times delivers result and I mean even weekends and very late night she's up working on your case. She is not a greedy lawyer, although SHE DOES HAVE A RIGHT TO BE... I tell her accurate info and soon as she asked me to read and review her documentations and letters I do it, and she reciprocate and goes above and beyond her clients cooperation.... THAT'S THE KIND OF LAWYER SHE IS, she does not say a lot at first, she listens to you and lets her client weigh in their options, she wont instigate fight between her client and the other parties just to earn a living... but she surely wont let her client end up as loser.... My ex's lawyer was very greedy and very ghetto... NOT JULIE... she's very calm, classy and as a matter of fact when we were in the court, random people approached her and told her " YOU ARE VERY SHARP AND CLASSY UNLIKE OTHER LAWYERS, THEYRE ALL MOUTH AND YET THEIR BRAINS ARE EMPTY", and when our case has received judgement she even had to help the other lawyer figure out what to do next. She comes in prepared and organize and on time, if not half an hour early. Ive not seen any lawyer ever before like her and my Dad was a lawyer he was very kind and very smart, but JULIE?... I MEAN SHE IS SET APART, I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FIND ANOTHER LAWYER LIKE HER, at least not my lifetime.

We hired Mrs. Julie Warshaw's for Guardianship and Special Education Law services. Throughout she was kind, understanding, patient and very diligent. Guardianship was completed very efficiently within a few weeks. Even for the special education services her approach was different than others. While discussing the matter she would even use the nicer words for the other party too. Saying let us understand their point of view and resolve the matter. Unlike some others professionals who will bash the other party during the first appointment but will be less responsive once the contract for services is signed. But we saw her same level of commitment as the case went on. As others also mentioned she is really an attorney with a heart! She is extremely knowledgeable about all the topics too. We cannot thank Julie enough for everything that she has done for us. We highly recommend her.

Tom Crino is great! My wife and I needed some advice when reviewing some last minute contracts, and Tom jumped right in to help us through negotiations. Tom is knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. He took the time to explain some confusing language in layman's terms, and answered all our questions. We felt confident signing the contracts after incorporating Tom's suggestions. We can't thank him enough for the seamless -- and painless -- process. We would recommend Tom to anyone who needs an attorney.

As the President and Publisher of a network of lawyers I have had exposure to thousands of lawyers in my 37 year old career and after just recently having worked with Mr. Provorny and his firm Herold Law I am delighted to add my highest recommendation of his counsel.
My experience with Mr. Provorny involved a complex business dispute and a professional merger of three distinct corporations each with a unique culture and perspective and while mergers and
acquisitions are never easy, Craig Provorny never skipped a beat. Throughout the entire process, which lasted six months, he was ALWAYS on top of every development and often able to present creative thinking and strategy which resulted in a win win for all involved.
Time and again I have found Mr. Provorny to be the lawyer you want to have on your side.

My wife and I worked with Jennifer as our attorney for our first home buying. Jennifer, was on top of things from the get go, explained the various legal terms and conditions in a simple layman language.
She was just a text/email away and was prompt in her response even at late nights/early mornings. She made sure our concerns were conveyed properly to the seller’s attorney.
In this complicated and often stressful home buying process you need someone like Jennifer to be on your side!

I have worked with Brandon in excess of 10 years. Brandon has a keen legal mind with the ability to keep an open mind. His diligence and commitment to a detailed analysis of the facts of a loss, insurance coverage language and case law has resulted in coverage interpretations and legal advice that I have always had complete confidence in. Brandon is an excellent communicator, and his legal writing and verbal explanations reduce complex coverage issues to clear understandable terms. He is a zealous advocate for the insured, and he quickly gets to the heart of the legal issues involved. Brandon brings sound practical legal advice to claims which lead to cost effective favorable resolutions. I highly recommend Brandon for insurance coverage and defense work.

We needed an attorney at the 11th hour, and David was there for us. He explained it wasn't his area of expertise (education) but knew we were in trouble and needed someone right then and there. It was an ongoing, complicated issue, one that we didn't think we needed an attorney for, let alone be incarcerated for. David made me feel like I had someone to lean on, when everyone was leaning on me. He told me exactly what he was going to do, when he was going to do it, and when he was going to call me. If I called him, he picked up right away or shortly thereafter. He would let me know in advance if he wasn't going to be reachable between certain hours, and that he'd call me back somewhere e between first chance. He explained new things he learned, made sure I understood, and asked if I had any news for him, or questions. I rated David excellent in all of the above categories because that is what I believe. I wish he was an attorney that specialized in education, but that wasn't his thing. He did help us find someone else that we needed, but David is our guy for any future, legal needs.

This review is for the office of Devero Taus and specifically Greg Devero. In my review I would like to not only offer my A++ and or 5** review to the team at Devero Taus but also offer some personal advice of what I learned along the way in having dealt with an unsavory employer.
I took my case to several firms and they were either short, rude, condescending or all of the above. When I brought my case to Greg Devero my case points were listened to by another attorney and then brought to the attention of Greg Devero personally. Here is the #1 thing he did that sets him apart: HE LISTENED WITHOUT JUDGEMENT AND ALSO PAID CLOSE ATTENTION AND ASKED ALL THE RIGHT QUESTIONS.
He took my case on contingency while others asked for retainers I couldn't afford while I was in a weak period after suffering a job loss. And so the 3 year journey began.
For any person looking to take on an employer the office of Greg Devero offered the most sage and valuable advice along every step of the way. Here are some key takeaways they offered which proved to be invaluable.
1. MAKE A TIMELINE - I cannot stress how valuable this is. Time flies and 3 months becomes 1 year and if your opponent is covered under insurance you will be asked 100x the same series of events and a consistent timeline proves very valuable in the long haul. During discovery the documents that coincide with your timeline should not be lost due to lack of creating a formal DATED TIMELINE.
2. Be patient. My case involved smoking gun evidence and while you may think this makes things cut and dry it doesn't necessarily speed up the process. Law is often a game of patience and while you never know how long it will be played you certainly get comfort knowing what inning your in. Devero Taus is EXCELLENT at explaining timelines for motions and procedures.
3. NEW JERSEYS BEST EMPLOYMENT ATTORNEY IS GREG DEVERO AND ANYONE WHO HE BRINGS ONTO YOUR CASE. I had the best co-counsel, the most respected experts, and the best TEAM. IT WAS A TEAM. If you think you will file a suit and not have your hands full post filing from my experience you will be wrong. You will be faced with many documents & procedures & Greg's team keeps you on track in producing important documents and outlines that explain your case to the court. You are not going to sit on your hands & have everything done for you. Greg's office is a legal guide & world class assistant in making your case alongside you. THEY HELP YOU HIGHLIGHT & TRIM DOWN FOCAL POINTS TO YOUR STRONGEST POSITIONS.
4. Managing emotion - bottom line is that in a suit you will go through a series of emotions. The biggest accolade I can give to Greg's team is that they slowly through the process divorce you from raw emotion. Things you think matter & are material often are emotionally driven, and in many cases detract from the core issues & strong points that should be the focal point. DOING THIS TAKES PATIENCE & SKILL. Skill to help me leave my emotion at the doorstep and skill to help me focus on points that are undeniably strong.
5. GREG DEVERO HAS QUALITY BEDSIDE MANNERS AND HELPS YOU GET YOUR LIFE BACK. At times I'm fairly certain my hot running emotion drove him mad, he kindly cut me short APPROPRIATELY and kept me on task. I learned to trust his high quality judgement. I received weekend calls from him personally to review my case and keep me abreast of next steps so I always knew where I stood in the process
6. THE BEST EMPLOYMENT LAW FIRM BELONGS TO THE OFFICE OF GREG DEVERO. - Not only did Greg create a positive outcome for me he did it with grit and class along every step. Parts of the law process are gritty, tedious, and redundant to the point of exhaustion. THIS MAN WILL NOT QUIT NOR WILL HIS TEAM
From start to finish Greg's team took me across the finish line.
In a simple nutshell here is what he did:
1. Listened.
2. Advised and Guided.
3. Never gave up.
4. Put bad employer in their place.
From the bottom of heart THANK YOU! FOR BELIEVING IN ME AND MY CASE. I HAVE MY LIFE BACK THANKS 2U

Michael and the entire team at DeTommaso Law Group were an absolute pleasure to work with. When I began, I could not have imagined the process to be so seamless and stress-free. Their sound advise, legal acumen and overall sensitivity during a particularly trying time is something I cannot thank them enough for. All of my requirements and expectations in settling the case were met and resolved in the most dignified manner. I shall always think of Michael as my "savior" and highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to settle a legal issue through a respectable and efficient process. Thank you, yet again :)

My divorce unfortunately lasted for four years. The sadness, stress, and hopelessness were overwhelming at times. I faced the decision to pursue a divorce alone. Choosing DeTommaso Law Group was the best decision I made in this difficult time. Their teamwork and professionalism helped guide me out of the darkness.
Kevin Lauerman represented me throughout the entire four years. He is intelligent, professional, and strategically adept. Most importantly, he has a kind heart. He successfully advocated on my behalf. I would like to extend my gratitude to the entire team who worked on my case.

Michael DeTommaso is the absolute best divorce and family attorney period! Going through a divorce can be such an emotionally and financially draining process, so you need a professional like Michael in your corner who will tirelessly and fiercely advocate for you and your children’s best interests from start to finish and beyond if you need him. Michael is brilliant and has extensive knowledge of the law and court system. He is compassionate and is an effective and no-nonsense communicator. He is approachable and truly cares about his clients while working diligently to achieve the best possible outcome. My first attorney made many empty promises and drained me financially with no resolution in sight after over one year. I was nervous and skeptical in my search to find another attorney but after my first meeting with Michael, I knew I wanted him to represent me. I finally felt heard and knew that once Michael stepped in, he would bring me to the finish line and that he did. Michael was very patient and clearly explained all of my options throughout the entire process and was always available to answer all of my questions. I am so very grateful for Michael and his assistant Liz who was also a pleasure to work with. You could not be in better hands if you decide to have Michael represent you. I have recommended Michael to many people because he is truly the best. My only regret is that I didn’t hire him first.
