Rob and his team were a blessing to have on my side. I had 3 or 4 different sources suing me for something I had no control of. He kept me appraised of all the steps he followed to get them to see I was not liable and drop the suits. I HIGHLY recommend this law firm for any kind of legal action necessary.

I absolutely would recommend Steven Katz to friends, family, and anybody in need of an honest, incredibly knowledgeable, decent, kind, and respectful attorney. I have worked with Attorney Katz for over a year on a very aggravating consumer case. He kept me informed and protected my interests through the entire process. I will be following up with Attorney Katz for all of my real estate, estate planning, and any other needs I might have their firm handles because I trust him. He is a good egg. That kind of professionalism, experience and ethics is a treasure in this world and I am grateful to have worked with him.

My wife and I sought Petroff and Associates for assistance in fighting a frivolous child protective service investigation. We were assigned Elizabeth Mitchell who immediately became our strongest advocate. Her talented legal skills and expertise helped close this case quickly and allow my family to move on from this unfortunate incident.

I first consulted with Ron Petroff around September 2021. I was informed of the difficulties that my case presented to me and was told how he would begin to represent me and what the plan of attack was AND WHY. He understood when and how to explain things to me throughout the two years almost of representation I have required.
He handled my divorce and then custody trials/settlements. Throughout all my needs and experiences with his office/staff I have experienced an almost overwhelming amount of competency. When every word matters, you need an attorney that puts importance on every word. That’s Ronald Petroff.
Ron and his expertise has brought unmeasurable amounts of comfort, peace of mind, and certainty to my family’s life. So hire him. Trust me.

Jefferson was assigned to me after my consultation with Ron. I always felt heard and what needed to be done was always done in a timely manner. I had peace of mind knowing they were on top of things and truly breathed easy after they came on board. Thank you so much for the support I received.

I had contacted dozens of lawyers to help me with my (contested adoption) case, they all had turned me down until I found Ryan Kuhn. From the very beginning you could tell Ryan and his assistant Jen are both very passionate and knowledgeable about what they do. One of the experts in our case said to me, "you either find a good lawyer who is a bad person, or a bad lawyer who is a good person, Ryan is the rare exception in that he is both." This is sooo true. He knew what was at stake and fought tooth and nail for my little family, working day and night for us. Words cannot explain how grateful I am to him and Jen for all they did for me. Without them I don't know where I would be, I truly believed finding them saved my life. He takes the cases that no one else will, and wins them. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!!! Him and Jen are both ANGELS.

Ryan was very helpful and understanding throughout the whole process. He answered every question I had in great detail and made certain I was aware of all of the moving parts from beginning to end. I would recommend him every time!

Ryan and his assistant, Jen, were very understanding and compassionate but yet professional and reasonable as they helped me file for divorce from my husband of 30 plus years. One of the first things Ryan said to me was… “ I am more expensive than a counselor, so if you want to chat about things not directly pertaining to the case, I will steer you back on track….but I recommend it is healthy to go seek out a counselor to help you emotionally get through the divorce.” Right from the start he was very conscious of a budget and kept things moving that were important to the case. He reminded me that somethings could cost more in attorney fees than were worth proving. Where I wanted to achieve something based on the principle of it, he steered me back to the cost that would be sacrificed to get it.
The divorce was complicated by the fact that I had put my career on hold to be a stay-home-mom to several children, allowing my husband to advance his career with the federal government and have all the perks related to early retirement eligibility, federal employee health benefits (FEHB), a government pension and a generous government matching Thrift Savings Plan (TSP). Although I had the same college degrees, education level, previous federal employment, and had recently picked up non-federal employment, I did not have the number of years to be eligible similar benefits. I counted on Ryan to weed through the confusing government rules and regulations pertaining to government “Spouse Equity,” “Survivor Spouse Annuity,” and “Federal Employees Health Benefits.” When my husband was adamant that he did not want to provide for the Survivor Spouse Annuity, Ryan was able to appeal to him and his attorney to have it provided because of the long marriage. Whatever Ryan did not know, he found out. He also has access to professional paralegals (at rates less than his) who are experts at dividing government retirement and TSP accounts based on individual cases. Ryan leveraged their information and guidance in preparing the court orders for the retirement division and the TSP division. Ryan is highly knowledgeable of the government retirement-type issues and an expert in the preparation of court orders specific to government retirement plans.
Although there were no longer any minor children, my case was further complicated by many other things, to include stock being held for an elderly parent with the intention that it would be returned to her if needed for her health care, multiple bank accounts, brokerage accounts, credit cards, student loans for a couple children, pages of personal belongings, hotel points, airline points, hidden cash, hidden trips, hidden debt, an adult child still in college-tuition, a house mortgage, a timeshare, multiple cars, some of which belonged to children, a dog, healthcare, dental and vision for adult children under the age 26, and the desire to be able to obtain federal healthcare when needed for myself.
One of the best ways to describe Ryan is that he has the mind of a chess player. He was always thinking one move ahead, and the topic of alimony comes to mind here (pros and cons)…. You’ll have to ask him.
Did the divorce cost more than expected? … Absolutely! But I am the reason for this. I can be wordy (this is probably the longest review on his page) and my emails long, but Ryan patiently answered every question, reminding me along the way to trust him, and that my wordiness and multiple questions would cost me more. I did not care because he was providing me with information which gave me peace of mind. He also obtained something that three other attorneys told me could not be done (ask him!). He is excellent, worth every penny.
Lastly, it is not in my nature to write reviews. I have made this one exception because Ryan and his assistant, Jen, deserve kudos for a job well done. A sincere Thank You Ryan for accomplishing the near impossible. May your practice thrive!

I think Denise Mirman is an excellent attorney. She was my attorney for 8 months this year. She came very highly recommended and with an excellent reputation. I know a number of people (including many people in the legal community) who know her, have worked with her in the past and came away with a positive experience. She understands the legal system, and directs her clients to the most reasonable path with the best promise of a good outcome. She doesn't candy-coat the process, but instead encourages her clients to adopt a practical common-sense approach to their situation. She was knowledgeable and easy to work with, yes, I would recommend her legal services to other people.

I recently went through the unfortunate experience of obtaining a divorce after 35 years of marriage. Needless to say, it was a difficult time for me. Denise was recommended to me by a friend. When I first met with Denise, she listened to my sad tale and advised me what options were available to me. I made the decision to follow through with the divorce and Denise took me on as her client. From the beginning, I felt complete confidence in Denise's knowledge and ability to make this process as straightforward as it could be. She guided me through the steps I needed to take to provide her with information about my situation and suggested some equitable terms that we could propose for a settlement. Given there were no dependent children involved in my case, and considering the duration of my marriage, Denise was cognizant of my wishes but also honest about any limitations that might exist given my employment status. I really appreciated her honesty and direct approach to finding the best resolution for my case. Denise's professionalism and support during this stressful time in my life gave me confidence that she was working for the best outcome possible. I'm very happy that Denise was recommended to me and am pleased with the results of my case.

My divorce was just final almost a year ago. It was a difficult situation with our business involved. Denise ALWAYS looked out for me. I would get intimidated - just plain scared - and she would "talk me off the cliff"! This happened many times. She was always available - even at night and on weekends. I don't want to think about what my situation would be had I not hired Denise! She would often say to me: "I'm not your mother" but this is what I advise. There were many difficult decisions to be made and I learned that "leaning" on her was my best option. She truly cared about me and my health. She wanted me to be happy. I'm not an attorney - I needed one - and I decided it was in my best interest to listen to her advice. I view Denise as a very intelligent, caring, and firm attorney.

Real review from an actual client. I'll keep it short and sweet. A genuine interest and compassion for your case. Extremely attentive. Keeps your head out of the clouds and focused on realistic solutions and outcomes. Aggressive yet professional. My name is J.R. and I was a client from 2014-2016 for my custody matter. I couldn't be happier with my outcome.

I would recommend Danielle and her firm for any of your family law needs. She was always easy to communicate with via phone, e-mail, text, etc. and she was considerate to the needs of not only myself but my children as well. All legal filings were extremely thorough and timely. Danielle was extremely professional in court hearings and with opposing counsel. If I should ever need assistance in the future I would not hesitate to hire her once again. The firm as a whole is amazing on every level. I will be forever grateful to her for everything she did for me and my family!

I chose Tony and his firm based on their excellent reputation for the most complicated of cases, especially those where financial issues are concerned. The knowledge and experience Tony offers in these areas far surpasses anything I had imagined. Tony is highly knowledgeable and realistic in all financial areas , as well as, extremely resourceful in calling in other experts ( when necessary). Although our case was lengthy, Tony remained invested in seeking justice throughout the case. I highly recommend Tony as a highly qualified attorney to navigate even the most difficult of cases. Thank you Anthony Auten and all the staff at Grossman Law.

I was sold on Mr Auten immediately as the person I wanted to represent me in my divorce. Such a credible, professional, stately attorney on my side made the other side begin cooperating as soon as he was retained, and he eased the whole process along. I am thrilled with the price, the service, and the result!

I would suggest Mr. Goldberg to anyone who is seeking a divorce. He is very kind and caring. He understands the emotional and financial toll of a divorce.

For any decent and good wife or husband who has been mistreated or betrayed by their spouse, Barry is the attorney you need to come to for guidance, knowledge, protection and results for a fair settlement. He is direct, firm yet kind in his guidance. He is ferocious and does not back down in his fight for you. It is his name and reputation that acts as a shield of protection for his clients. In a time of confusion and hurt there is none better. I thank God for him and what he did for me almost six years ago. He is not just an attorney, he's a friend in a time when you need him most. I would have lost everything without him. Sadly, sometimes at the end of a marriage, it's not how much love is still there, it's how little they want to leave you with. You must fight now to live better later. You will get over it. JAPF

She did an absolutely wonderful job for me in my domestic matter. Professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and someone who clearly has the respect of her peers, I would highly recommend Amanda. She made what would have otherwise been a stressful and emotional situation far more bearable and comfortable. She was honest with me about the strengths and weaknesses present in my case. She proved to be a well reasoned and fair negotiator also. Again, I have nothing but the highest praise for Amanda. Highly recommended.

Gregg Lewis helped me greatly when an unexpected custody battle began. I had to move quickly to find an attorney that I trusted and believed would represent me and my minor child the best. I am happy and thankful I chose Mr. Lewis to do that. Him and his staff were always organized with paperwork and quick to respond to any question via email or phone that I had. He understood my concerns and always listened to my thoughts about choices within the case. He represented me well and I was able to keep full custody of my daughter. Thank you again and again Gregg!

I was NOT a client. I was a 3rd party payer for a contract that was being done. the account was charged for time before the retainer was completed. There were ZERO changes or updates to the contract. Overall Emma was extremely unprofessional and rude in her interactions. We became afraid to interact due to being charged for everything. I get time is money but this was just ridiculous for the amount of work that was NOT conducted.

My mortgage company used this group to close on my refi. Worst legal group ever, I've called at least 15 times over the last 2 days not a single answer. Left multiple voicemails and not a single return call. USPS lost a creditor check to pay off account and I can't get in touch with anyone to stop payment and re-issue. A joke of a legal group.

I had the sincere pleasure of working with Deborah McNinch on a difficult real estate transaction. I was very hesitant to reach out for legal aid, however enlisting her help was the best possible decision that I could have made. With her dedicated attention, and skill, she guided us through a process that very easily could have gone awry. Ultimately, we were able to complete the sale of our condo successfully and I fully attribute that success to Deborah's help. Thank you so much for everything!

Kelly Morgan is a very rare Attorney. He is kind, patient, a great listener, easy to communicate with, responsive and solution oriented. I reached out to Attorney Morgan after a business deal had gone awry, in search of a legal expert that could help my company. In my mind, help meant, “let’s go to court.” Attorney Morgan, however, with his calm and level-headed demeanor, talked me off the ledge with a suggestion to meet with the opposing party because of the relationship he and I have. The result of which positioned my friend and I to finish our deal and remain friends. All thanks to Attorney Morgan. Thank you, Kelly!

Let me tell you what a wonderful lawyer Amy Weis is. Amy helped navigate me and my two young sons (with the assistance of a wonderful guardian ad litem, Kerry McCormick) through an ugly custody battle and divorce in 2010. I credit Amy with my two now grown sons being happy and successful young men-she and Kerry kept those boys with their Dad. Fast forward over a decade later, and I needed some information from the divorce settlement for tax reasons. I left a voicemail for Amy, and had a response with all information I needed emailed to me with a nice note within an hour. Amy was so skilled throughout the entire process, and obviously keeps incredible records. And, most importantly, she cares. What a wonderful attorney.

I usually do not write many reviews, but I was compelled to do so based on the great experience I had with Weis Law Group. I was going through a BAD custody battle (relocation case) involving my 2 year old son at the time and was initially recommend to Amy Weis by a family friend who is also an attorney. He told me Amy is one of the best in Ohio so I was excited to contact her about representing me. Once I reached out, I was told that Amy could not take my case (I do not remember the reason why, however I want to say it was because she was mainly handling divorce cases and my case did not involve a divorce) however I was told that her partner David could represent me. At first, I was extremely hesitant to work with David for many reasons. The first being that my family friend had highly recommended Amy, had no knowledge of David and his experience and lastly with me being a woman and a mother I was honestly unsure if David would be able to resonate with me, my situation and represent me the best way possible as the other Male Attorneys I had consultations with prior seemed to favor fathers.
With that, I had a consultation with both David and Amy, they were both very knowledgeable and I was told Amy would partner with David throughout the case and I felt good moving forward. I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional legal representation provided by Attorney David in my relocation custody case and I could not be more thankful that Amy partnered me with him. From the very beginning, I spoke with many different attorneys both male and female and was informed by other attorneys that winning such a challenging case (relocation) would be difficult. I was told that the magistrate assigned to my case does not like relocations and hardly granted them and they expressed doubt in the outcome. However, David displayed unwavering confidence and expertise throughout the process. He went above and beyond to come up with creative ways to prove what would be in the best interest of my son.
One notable aspect of working with David and the Weis Group, was their understanding of my financial situation. They were incredibly flexible and accommodating, allowing me to make payments that suited my circumstances. This demonstrated their genuine commitment to helping me without adding additional stress.
Throughout the case, David displayed a deep understanding of family law and a strategic approach to litigation. They prepared every aspect of my case, ensuring that no stone was left unturned. Their attention to detail and thoroughness were truly impressive and David was always available to speak when needed.

I am sorry it took me this long to write this review but Brandy Wyatt is the BEST of the BEST! We had a very unexpected situation arise that caused so much stress and chaos and Brandy made us feel comfortable through the entire ordeal. She worked her magic and we came out unscathed and our family is forever grateful! She was honest, she educated us thoroughly on the good, bad, and ugly, and I could just go on for an eternity about how grateful we are that we found her when we did!
Thank you again Brandy!

Brandy is a wonderful attorney to work with. She took my position seriously and offered great perspective navigating my post decree issues. She offered many options and was conscious of our budget. The entire team was wonderful from Vincent Brandy's Paralegal, Jamie at the front desk, and their office manager Jill. I have and will continue to recommend wood and long to anyone looking for help.

My mortgage company used this group to close on my refi. Worst legal group ever, I've called at least 15 times over the last 2 days not a single answer. Left multiple voicemails and not a single return call. USPS lost a creditor check to pay off account and I can't get in touch with anyone to stop payment and re-issue. A joke of a legal group.

I became a client for Dmitriy and his firm of 2023. From the start, Dmitriy and his associates were kind and welcoming at each time in their office visit. After sitting through my consultation I knew that this was the firm for me. Dmitriy was clear and consistent in letting me know how healthy in they operate .
I received excellent service and assistance from Dmitriy's office. The office was responsive and caring on all my needs. Although I do not have a resolution as yet, Dmitriy is relentless in advising me of all the risks and exposure I have in my case. Henry Sondermon and his office is very thorough and detailed and I would recommend him to any service .

I became a client for Dmitriy and his firm in May of 2023. From the start, Dmitriy and his associates were kind and welcoming at each in-office visit. After sitting through my consultation I knew that this was the firm for me. Dmitriy was clear and consistent in letting me know how he operates cases similar to my own. He broke down many possible scenarios and likelihood of particular situations happening. He was able to take the common jargon he uses and bring it to a level that someone without a law degree would understand. He never made me feel dumb or inferior. He respected the decisions I wanted to make, while helping me to weigh the pros and cons of each choice. He consistently answered phone calls and emails within respectable time frames. He also did an amazing job with keeping up on mass amounts of information that was given to him. He was organized and I was amazed at what he was able to accomplish knowing that I was not the only case he was handling at the time. His staff worked endlessly to ensure that my voice was heard as a client and I have never felt that I was being ignored. In the end, I’m thrilled with how my case turned out and Dmitriy and his staff are to thank. I’m not sure I could have done it without their help and guidance.

What a Child Support Lawyer Can Do for You
A child support lawyer specializes in legal issues related to the financial support that one parent provides to another for the upbringing of their children. These lawyers assist with establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders, ensuring that the financial needs of the child are met, including housing, food, healthcare, education, and other essentials. A child support lawyer can also represent parents in disputes over the amount of support, ensure fair calculations based on income, and handle legal proceedings if one parent fails to meet their obligations.
Whether you're seeking to establish child support, modify an existing order, or enforce payments, a child support lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
When Should I Hire a Child Support Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child support lawyer when you need assistance with any of the following child support matters:
- Establishing child support: If you are going through a divorce or separation and need to establish a child support order, a lawyer can help ensure that the support amount is fair and accurately calculated.
- Modifying child support orders: If there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, income change, or a child's financial needs, a lawyer can help you request a modification to the existing child support order.
- Enforcing child support payments: If the other parent has failed to make court-ordered child support payments, a lawyer can help enforce the order through legal means such as wage garnishment, property liens, or even legal action.
- Disputing child support calculations: If you believe the child support amount has been incorrectly calculated based on your income or expenses, a lawyer can help you challenge the calculation and seek a fair adjustment.
- Paternity disputes: If paternity needs to be established before child support can be ordered, a lawyer can assist with DNA testing and legal proceedings.
- Interstate child support cases: If the parents live in different states, navigating child support laws can be complex. A lawyer can help ensure the proper jurisdiction is established and that child support is enforced across state lines.
- Child support during custody disputes: If child custody and child support are being determined simultaneously, a lawyer can help ensure that both issues are resolved fairly and in the best interest of the child.
Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your child support case is handled effectively and that your child's financial needs are met.
What Does a Child Support Lawyer Do?
A child support lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents secure, modify, and enforce child support arrangements. Their responsibilities often include:
- Filing for child support: A lawyer can help you initiate the legal process to obtain a child support order, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted and deadlines are met.
- Calculating child support: A lawyer can help ensure that child support is calculated fairly based on both parents' incomes, the needs of the child, and other factors such as healthcare and education costs.
- Negotiating child support agreements: If both parents are willing to negotiate, a lawyer can help facilitate an agreement on child support outside of court, which can then be approved by a judge.
- Representing you in court: If negotiations fail or the other parent contests the child support amount, a lawyer will represent you in family court, presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Modifying support orders: A lawyer can help you file a request for modification if circumstances change, such as a loss of income or an increase in the child’s financial needs.
- Enforcing child support: If the other parent is not making court-ordered payments, a lawyer can take legal steps to enforce the order through wage garnishment, property liens, or other measures.
- Handling complex cases: In cases involving high incomes, self-employment, or complicated financial situations, a lawyer can help ensure that all relevant factors are considered in determining child support.
How Are Child Support Lawyers Paid?
Child support lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Most child support lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. The total cost will depend on how much time the lawyer spends on your case, including preparation, negotiations, and court appearances.
- Flat fee: For more straightforward cases, such as uncontested child support agreements or basic modifications, some lawyers may offer a flat fee that covers all services related to the case.
- Retainer: Many lawyers require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount of the retainer depends on the expected complexity of the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or provide pro bono (free) services in cases where clients cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially when children’s needs are at stake.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are covered.
How Much Does a Child Support Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a child support lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Uncontested child support cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and the lawyer’s fees.
- Contested child support cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, especially if the case involves significant court time.
- Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour for child support cases, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases that involve complex financial issues.
- Modification or enforcement: Fees for modifying or enforcing a child support order may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity and the need for court intervention.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.
Top Questions to Ask a Child Support Lawyer
Before hiring a child support lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child support cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges you may face. -
How long will the process take?
Child support cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors may cause delays. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What documents should I prepare?
Ask the lawyer what financial documents and other information you should bring to help them calculate child support and build your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Support Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child support lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and have successfully handled child support cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on child support matters.
- Check for certifications: Some lawyers may have certifications in family law or membership in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), which can indicate their expertise in child support and family law issues.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a child support lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Income documents: Bring pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s, or any other documentation of your income and the other parent’s income, as this will be used to calculate child support.
- Existing child support orders: If there are any existing child support or custody orders, bring copies for the lawyer to review.
- Child-related expenses: Provide documentation of your child’s medical bills, education expenses, daycare costs, and any other expenses that should be factored into the child support calculation.
- Communication with the other parent: Bring any communication between you and the other parent regarding child support, whether through emails, text messages, or written agreements.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer’s fees.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
