Eva gives a free Free Consultation that put my mind at ease. Eva taught me all about divorce and the process and she answered all my questions. In person Eva was very understanding and knowledgeable and made feel positive about myself. Eva settled out of court and save me a lot. I would hire Eva, if you unfortunately have to get a divorce.

Divorce is never an easy part of life to balance. Started off without a lawyer and having my back pinned against the wall. Attorney Nath came highly recommended. They were not wrong! All it took was a couple of minutes to brief Attorney Nath on what was going on. The weight that was lifted was just night and day of a difference! You know, the honesty from the start and the facts that I did not know about this process is what was delivered first class. Ultimately winning my case! The fight from day one until the very last day of court even when the battle was weary was extremely difficult, but Attorney Nath made sure every doubt or question I had was answered. I am so glad I was able to put my trust and livelihood in the hands of someone that heard me and understood what to do without asking any questions. This level of personal care is what makes the difference.

Michele was available, smart, intuitive, strategic and collaborative. We felt part of the process. Now, she is part of our family. We consider her a friend, always.

I recently found myself in the middle of a "gray" divorce. 70 years old, married for 13 years to a woman that turned on me. I decided to represent myself in court, defending my pension, Social Security, health care, non marital assets, bank accounts and such. It didn't take long for me to realize I needed a professional consultation as her attorney's proposal was outrageous and would ruin me financially for the rest of my life. Karen's name was highly recommended by a close friend. A quick email to her office and I scheduled a consultation. I'm a good judge of people and immediately knew she was the person I wanted representing me. No nonsense or small talk. Straight to the point. Professional and knows the law. I knew she had my back. Once the dust settled, I was able to keep 90% of what I worked my entire life for. To say I am happy with her service would be an understatement. Regarding payment, her billing was straightforward and well documented. The entire process cost me much less than I expected. In short, I would highly recommend consulting with Karen first. You won't regret it.

Attorney Gersten is a top divorce attorney in the area. She did an amazing job and what seemed to be impossible to me a year ago. I went through a very difficult divorce. Before hiring attorney Gersten I interviewed 4 other attorneys and I am glad I chose Karen. She is very efficient and has fair charges and accounting of hours practice. Karen is very knowledgeable and well respected in the court. She always fights to protect interests of her clients, while open to settlement without unnecessary trials if her clients are satisfied with outcome. If presented with challenge, Karen is open to face it without hesitation and do research of precedents to be used in the court. Karen is always confident and has genuine care for her clients. She always comes to the court prepared and ready to protect your interests. Karen is working hard to make sure she provides high quality service. I wish I could give Karen more than 5 starts.

I hired Attorney Gersten to represent me through a divorce from my now ex-husband, and it is the best financial decision I have ever made by a LANDSLIDE. Karen is the absolute pinnacle of professionalism, legal expertise, and client advocacy. Her legal counsel is worth every penny (and then some). After finding out that my husband was having an affair, I wanted the best representation I could find. I was blind-sided and had no idea what I should expect navigating a divorce. I met with a few other divorce-specializing lawyers locally before finding Attorney Gersten. The consultations I had with other lawyers all seemed to end up in the same place-- a cookie-cutter response, and dismissive approach to the dissolution of my 9-year marriage. Not Attorney Gersten. From the instant I met with her to discuss my situation, I knew I'd found the person to help me get through the toughest season of my life. Karen listened attentively to the details and circumstances that made my case unique, making sure my biggest concerns and needs would be met moving forward as she strategized her approach. She made me feel heard and understood, like a real partner throughout the process. She kept me grounded and provided me with previews on what documentation needed to be prepared (both by me, and her team), what I might expect while appearing in court, or what negotiations might come up on the road to settling my case. Further than that, she actually pointed out additional factors about my situation that I never would have thought to, explaining why they must be non-negotiable given my circumstances. Karen takes a no-nonsense approach, wasting no time on fluff. Every second she spent on my case was well documented and easily understood. Any interactions we had, she’d always try to get as much accomplished as we possibly could together to prepare for the next step. After watching Attorney Gersten command a room during court proceedings and other interactions, it is obvious that she is exceptionally well-respected by her peers and others within the judicial system. She is the perfect balance of kind and caring in her interactions, while remaining assertive in her communication and negotiations. She is ethical, confident, and exudes professionalism through every step. Anyone who has been through a divorce knows the rollercoaster of emotions that can be experienced. Having Attorney Gersten as a champion in my corner through this process gave me not only an outstanding result financially settling my divorce, but something MUCH more important: peace of mind. Every nerve-wrecking situation that came up, she was there to calm my nerves. If you have the opportunity to work with Attorney Gersten… RUN, don’t walk.

The team at Goff Law Group truly went above and beyond in handling my personal injury claim. They diligently explained every situation in detail to me and answered all of my questions. Melanie, the paralegal assigned to my case was very detailed oriented and responsive to any need. I had the pleasure of dealing with Attorney Annette Smith who, from the very start, was upfront and realistic regarding the situation and expectations. In the end the group maximized my claim--for which I am very grateful.

I did not deal directly with Brook Goff, but did with her firm. I had a couple of lawyers, and they didn't work out. The one that did was Tiffany Sabato. She was stellar! Called me with information, called if she needed more information, kept me up to date on what was going on. I live out of state, but my accident took place in CT. It was reassuring to know that someone was watching out for me. Thanks again Tiffany for all your hard work, but happy I hope to never have to use a lawyer for the rest of my life.

Checking in to let us know timelines as they changed as to manage expectations. EXTREMELY knowledgeable, as a client I was always confident that she knew the answer with anything I threw her way from various types of topics. Professional candor from the moment we meet her, polite, well spoken and always made us feel like her #1 priority. Care - she really added a simple but human touch to make sure we felt that she was doing the best she could to help us. Taking an interest in our story and customizing her approach to our needs Excellent communication throughout the process, her response times to our questions (and we had a lot, god bless her) and keeping us update with any relevant news. Giving us the best chance for success for our green card application by ensuring we came over prepared and to look our best during the interview process. All in all, good lawyers are hard to come by but someone like Diana is in a league of her own.

I can't recommend Attorney Richard Grabow highly enough! I finally have federal disability support (SSDI) because I contracted with him. I would not have been able to successfully navigate the disability appeals process without him and his assistant Melissa. It was very difficult to find someone to take my case, as I am considered very young for disability and because (as Attorney Grabow explained) the system is not really set up to assess people with my many complex, chronic conditions. After a lot of hard work and an extremely long time of searching, I found two others willing to take my case, but after in-person consults, it was no contest that I wanted to go with Grabow. He was obviously very busy so he had to be very direct and to the point about everything, but I appreciate the efficiency and candor. He looked at my work history and medical summary, and he laid out the difficulties of my application but the reasons why I could (and obviously should) qualify. He also explained more of an inside perspective on how the system works, expected wait times, etc. The other folks I considered hiring did not seem nearly as competent nor were they as thorough or candid about things. Basically, how the office functions is that most communications are with his assistant Melissa and Richard directly communicates when needed. Melissa is friendly, helpful, and has more time for answering questions. Richard is understandably more rushed and some might perceive him as a bit gruff, but again, the efficiency, directness and high level of competence is what I prefer. (And, what works!) For anyone starting the disability process, some other helpful info: -Grabow operates on a common disability attorney method where you can contract with him and he does not receive payment unless you win your case. If you win, he is automatically paid a % from your backpay, with a cap. This was a godsend for me as, of course, I was destitute by the time I found him. -Contracting with a lawyer is extremely important and helpful, but you still have to stay on top of everything that you can yourself. For example, I always take notes, and Grabow mentioned a certain type of paperwork early in the process. I brought it up with him further into the process ("I have X in my notes. Should we be doing that soon?") and his take seemed to be, "We don't need that right now. Let's not do work until we need to do work and have everything as current as possible." Luckily, I pressed him on it to give it to me the forms to get to my doctor...and then, surprisingly, my case processing got pushed up EARLIER than expected, we did need that paperwork, and we had it in the nick of time. All this is to say, I don't think I would have been approved without his work on my case, but you still need to be engaged in the process. In sum, I am extremely glad and grateful that I used Richard and Melissa!! I was disabled for 10 years without support, and I am finally in the next chapter of my life because of their help. I can't thank them enough!!!

She was prompt in returning phone calls or emails. Her fees were reasonable. I would highly recommend her as an estate planning attorney.

I called a couple other lawyers and firms and didn't have any good feelings about who I talked to, felt like they just wanted my money. Tamar gave me excellent advise and made me have no worries proceeding forward with her representation. We went to several hearings with the outcome still wanting to charge me with my crimes, but Tamar took no for an answer she knew something wasn't right with how everything went down that night for me. After a few months and a couple hearings later my case we dropped and only a small fine was acquitted towards me, she saved my future this is something that could of greatly affected me and ruined my life in many ways.

My husband and I hired Attorney Jennifer Rossi to represent us in a dispute against a homebuilder for defective workmanship. Her representation saved us an enormous amount of hassle and undoubtedly a great deal of money as well. Her services came highly recommended from a friend in the legal profession, and her support on our behalf lived up to every aspect of the recommendation. Jennifer is a consummate professional; she is sharp, confident, detailed and result-driven. From the initial introduction, we had total confidence that we were in the best hands possible. Top shelf representation is hard to come by particularly, when a sensitive blend of personal experience, observations and trusted skill sets are involved. As painful of a process this could have been, Jennifer put our mind at ease and removed the majority of our stress right from the onset. Thanks to her help, and her thorough, aggressive defense of our interests, our matter was settled successfully. We highly recommend Attorney Jennifer Rossi without reservation!

Attorney Jennifer Rossi recently represented me in an issue that had me at odds with the State of Ct Health Dept. The State either wanted me to fix a “problem” with a job I performed many years ago or hand them my license to do business in Ct. Atty. Rossi was completely successful in defending me and the case was dropped. I was impressed by her attention to detail, and her dogged pursuit of this matter. She showed an expertise where a few other attorneys I contacted feared to go or were going to research the statutes, or put their younger staff members on it all on my dime. Above all she was reasonable with her fees which I gladly paid as win or lose I feel I was treated more than fair by her and by her efforts alone I felt reassured a few days into our working together on this situation.

Twenty-two years ago I received a notice from a lawyer representing a vendor over a relatively small bill that I firmly felt was bogus. Went to my lawyer and he agreed the claim was weak at best and would likely be voided if the vendor/lawyer pursued the claim. My lawyer then recognized who the notice was from - Kerry M. Wisser. At that point he indicated it might well be better to just pay the bill rather than go up against Mr. Wisser. Being quite stubborn and armed with solid facts I excused my lawyer and would handle this claim myself. I contacted Mr. Wisser and over a period of a month spoke to him no less than a handful of times. Mr. Wisser's advocacy for his client was creative and unbending, to the point he made me feel I in fact owed the contested amount. Not being able to convince Mr. Wisser to drop the claim I attempted to negotiate and settle it, that didn't work either. Finally, I agreed to pay the entire amount under one condition - Mr. Wisser would meet for lunch and pick up the tab. Paying that bogus bill was the best money I have ever spent. From that luncheon to this day Mr. Wisser has represented me exclusively in all ligation matters both offensively and defensively with great success. I recommend few people because of the obvious responsibility for such a recommendation. However, I have easily recommended Mr. Wisser to at least a couple of dozen individuals who have utilized his services over the years and I have never heard anything but glowing thank you's. If your looking for a lawyer that is as comfortable in a courtroom as he is at a ball game, he's your man. Kerry M. Wisser is in a class by himself!

I am in the type of business where litigation does come up at times, and I have found Kerry Wisser to be a super lawyer in the affairs that he has managed for me. He has accomplished things involving cases that I have been involved with that I know other lawyers just wouldn't have been able to do. I have found that nobody can pull the wool over Kerry's eyes. He knows the law in and out and he knows how to apply it in the best way possible to protect and / or promote his client. There can be a lot laying on the line with any case. And there are many lawyers out there to choose from. However, just getting a lawyer for the sake of having a lawyer is not the way to handle it. I have found that if I really want to give my self the best possible chance of winning, it's not just any lawyer that can make a difference but what lawyer. So when I have a case come up, I know that hiring Kerry will put me in the best and strongest possible position to achieve a favorable out come to my case.

He is very good at presenting coherent factual evidence and case law while exuding professionalism, confidence and proficiency in the courtroom. Our case is complex and still on-going, but we have won big battles along the way to which we owe directly to Attorney Wisser's expertise. No other attorney could have worked this hard or litigated as well as Kerry has. We fully recommend him to anyone seeking an experienced, dedicated and knowledgable attorney who will fight for your rights.

My name is raef and this guy is really good at winning cases. Someone stole my sisters cape which she can't function without, so he sued Oliver Casey for 1,000 dollars for stealing her cape. When she got her cape back, me and her started jumping for joy. I can't believe she found her cape.

My wife was torturing me to get our estate planning started, and I was hesitant - more due to the icky nature of the topic than anything else. I was referred to Charles by a financial planner, and I couldn't be happier. Attorney Basil is extremely knowledgeable, especially when it comes to Connecticut matters. He understood the delicate nature of this topic, and handled it professionally and well. He is affordable and does great work. I have no problem recommending him for financial and estate planning.

I cannot speak highly enough of the experience of working with Jessica. From the outset, Jessica demonstrated remarkable efficiency in handling our case. One of the most impressive aspects was how she addressed our concerns with precision and empathy. She took the time to listen to both of us, ensuring that each of our perspectives was fully understood before moving forward. Thanks to Jessica's guidance, we were able to reach a resolution that felt fair and satisfactory to both of us and it cost us less than we were expecting!

I met Attorney Susan Busby several years ago when I was going through a difficult divorce. From the moment we met, Susan impressed me as being an extremely efficient, knowledgeable, and caring attorney. She became my divorce Co-Counsel and was able to provide gentle but firm guidance and helped make this painful process more manageable. Whenever I called upset and stressed, she was able to provide valuable, practical advice that would calm me down. I especially appreciated Susan's acute attention to detail while at the same time being able to put things in a larger perspective. Most recently, in the process of getting remarried, I asked Susan to draft a Prenuptial Agreement and she, once again, approached the matter in a professional yet sensitive manner so as to create a document that truly reflected our particular needs. Susan impresses me as an overall organized, knowledgeable professional who uses her experience and expertise to help others.

Susan represented me in my divorce. Susan was professional and compassionate. Phone calls were returned promptly and all my questions were answered fully and knowledgeably. Susan cared about what happened to my children and myself and through her voice, I was heard in the court system. Susan worked tirelessly to make sure I received a fair settlement in my divorce. I have recommended Susan to many friends and aquaintences and I know that some have hired Susan as well. I will continue to recommend Susan to anyone I know that needs a divorce attorney. She's the best!!

Susan is not only very knowledgeable about the legalities of divorce, she is one of a kind in my book! She knows the laws and how they all applied to my case. She always came out on top when we went to court. She was able to represent me in the utmost professional manner as well as what was best for myself and my children. She also is very aware of the high emotions regarding separation, divorce and custody issues. She knows how to deal with the both parties that are involved, as well as the opposing lawyer! No matter when I called her, I would receive a call back that day. I knew she would always have the answer to any of my questions. She taught me how I could keep my perspective and stay balanced during these trying times. I now have incorporated these life skills into my daily life. I feel that it has been a blessing having had Susan represent me in my divorce. My life has changed and only for the good. She must be commended on her professionalism and her way of handling her clients. She is a great asset to the Legal Profession! There should be more lawyers like her!

Her ability to navigate the process eased our anxiety. she kept us informed of all possible scenarios before and during the case. It pays to hire someone who has had experience with the players on the "other side of the table" . Donna is that attorney. Anyone who hires her will benefit from her experience and kindness.

Divorce is never an easy part of life to balance. Started off without a lawyer and having my back pinned against the wall. Attorney Nath came highly recommended. They were not wrong! All it took was a couple of minutes to brief Attorney Nath on what was going on. The weight that was lifted was just night and day of a difference! You know, the honesty from the start and the facts that I did not know about this process is what was delivered first class. Ultimately winning my case! The fight from day one until the very last day of court even when the battle was weary was extremely difficult, but Attorney Nath made sure every doubt or question I had was answered. I am so glad I was able to put my trust and livelihood in the hands of someone that heard me and understood what to do without asking any questions. This level of personal care is what makes the difference.

Jay Weintraub represented me in a law suit in which I was the plaintiff suing my former business partner. Besides the fact that we won on all accounts, I was very impressed with the way he listened, counseled, analyzed and informed me all along the way. Since then Jay has represented me and my adult children in matters relating to real estate, estate planning, etc. I trust him for his knowledge, clarity of explanation, tenacity, and demeanor. Jay is not an attack oriented lawyer. He tries reason, communication and win-win results but he can be steel-minded when necessary. I always felt that my benefit was his primary objective- not his best interests.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.

    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
    • Contingency Fee:
      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
