My personal injury case from my accident was handled with care, and fight to get me the compensation I need for my catastrophic injuries. This firm is amazing, Michael Jaffe and Matthew Fein treated my children and I like family and I would only recommend this firm for someone who was injured in an accident.

Andrew Meaney is a true class act! Andrew helped our family when we were in foreclosure. He worked with us for nearly a year. Assisted us in the sale of our home and purchase of a new home. We are now debt free and mortgage free! None of this would have been possible without Andrew’s professionalism and hard work. I would recommend him to everyone. Reasonable fees considering how hard he works!

Lifesavers! "I was facing foreclosure and drowning in debt. I was terrified and didn't know where to turn. Meaner Law was a beacon of hope. From the very first consultation, I felt heard and understood. They explained the process clearly, answered all my questions patiently, and fought tirelessly on my behalf. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, I was able to successfully modify my loan and avoid foreclosure. They not only saved my home but also gave me back my peace of mind. I can't recommend them highly enough. If you're struggling with mortgage payments, please don't hesitate to contact them. They are true professionals and genuinely care about their clients."

I had the pleasure of working with Andrew Meaney on a legal matter involving my share of my mother's house, which I shared with my brothers. What could have been an extremely stressful and overwhelming process was made so much easier thanks to Andrew's expertise. He was incredibly kind, cooperative, and responsive, and handled everything seamlessly and efficiently. Andrew’s ability to navigate the complexities of the situation with such ease gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional lawyer.

I was very scared and confused but took the time to interview a few attorneys. As soon as I met Nina I felt that I had found a great attorney that I could rely on. Just from the consultation I thought that Nina was very knowledgeable and had a lot of experience. Just as important to me was that I could tell that Nina truly cared about her clients. The real proof came when we had a conference with my husband, his attorney, me and Nina. Before that conference, my husband was very angry and told me that his attorney told him that this would be a drag out fight. Nina out performed my husband’s lawyer during the conference. During the conference Nina even impressed my husband! She did her homework: she had all of the information regarding our finances and presented the reasons and law for the offer she had put together. She was so confident and convincing that after the conference, my husband questioned the advice his attorney gave him and we ended up settling on terms which were very good for me and our kids. Our agreement was fair to everyone and neither I nor my husband spent a ton of money. I highly recommend Nina. She gives on target, practical advice and got my divorce done quickly.

Great Expert! Pleasant to deal with! I believe the difference is between good attorney and superb attorney lays in a few traits: ability to give not only advice but to guide you through all the steps and see it from different perspectives . Also, she really cares about her client not only about her case. Josephine Lupis has unstoppable desire to win her cases. Dealing with her for number of years on different instances proved that she is the one that you want to be represented by.

Let me begin with I was totally lost & without guidance from my prior attorney for over two years. For months on end I could never reach nor get an answer as to what was going to happen to me, and/or my case & future. Thank You GOD, for Deborah Sharinn, I truly feel having Deborah Sharinn, represent me was “divine intervention” without a doubt. Deborah has been knowledgeable, informative, accessible, compassionate, & willing to go the distance regardless of the consistent roadblocks thrown @ her in my case. Deborah’s ethical demeanor goes above & beyond in what is needed to accomplish the sometimes unbearable case to get an ultimately fair resolution for all parties involved. It is a “breath of fresh air”, to have Deborah Sharinn, such an incredibly talented attorney to represent my case in the fashion she has only within months, & already remarkable results. If you need excellent representation & a stress free environment until you’re case comes to pass, I highly & extremely recommend Deborah Sharinn, Esq. There are not enough words to Thank You Deborah, I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.

I would think after all this time you’d make things right for me I was even told no attorney charges a retainer fee for each op so you did more then lie you scammed me and even communication between you and other attorneys you pulled out my file on top she love canceling your appts with her last minute like 5 minutes prior so for me to drive in pain to my sister in law taking time off work to go with me lost her wages for that time to never available on the phone it is a tag game so she could charge me for the office to take the call for her then she get back when fits her to cause her staff would know nothing. I am putting it on here to arm people she destroys your life with those doing perjury. Like her saying the legal aid for my niece wants and doesn’t say all but see doesn’t even play the proof to the child’s legal aid that the kids needs help but Natasha does go to me something wrong with my sister year to call me crap since she pregnant with her child but leaves me caring no less for the child but the child to live with me 24/7 for me to take child out for me to have calls that she needs me to help the child’s doctor with medical cause I use same doctor to she calling it aunt days meaning I am to no only take child out to movies lunch dinner alone with me but to pay for it etc and no I will not be threatened to take down review you destroyed my life with the monster and lied to the courts and let me take a beating for stuff I find do like I said 7 months in that house something completely wrong no less what was done once sister thought court mediation was done no less I was mislead it was a judge when it wasn’t.

What a blessing it was working with Ms. Karen McGuire! I went through an extremely difficult divorce involving children. It was heartbreaking trying to navigate shielding them from a narcissistic abusive partner. Needless to say, Karen was always there for whatever the children or I needed. Including placing my partner in jail when necessary! Her relationships with her clients are more familial than business. I would give her more than 5 stars if I could!!!

Mrs. Mangan a member of the firm McGuire and Condon which is an exceptional law firm. Mrs Mangan roots for the client , believes in them, listens to and makes each and every issue they have a priority. For over a year Mrs. Mangan has fought for me with the agony and the continuing court battles with my ex-husband. Mrs. Mangan listened to my issues both past and present with my ex and has fought for my rights and stood up for me, where I felt like I couldn't. I was referred to Mrs. Mangan and it was the best referral I ever got! Mrs. Mangan has made me a stronger person and helped me believe that I too have rights. She made me see that I don't deserve to be bullied. Mrs. Mangan doesn't push you off as her client. As busy as the office is, you always feel like her top priority. Mrs. Mangan, along with her team, are amazing at their jobs. The team both listens and hears the concerns of their clients, and are truly compassionate with them. Mrs Mangan is a confident lawyer and it is impossible for me to put into words how truly amazing she is.

I was fortunate that Lynn Poster-Zimmerman assertively defended me in small claims court against a nasty, contemptible landlord. Ms Poster-Zimmerman arrived on time at the courthouse and was fully prepared to present my defense. She was highly knowledgeable and diligent in the intricacies of the case. She explained the parameters clearly and understandably to me. Ms. Poster-Zimmerman responded to my multiple phone call promptly. I was always able to contact her or a member of her staff instead of leaving messages on an answering machine. She was available via phone, text and email and responded in a timely manner. She was incredibly thorough and kept me informed throughout the process, and she made a stressful situation manageable. At the court date, Ms Poster-Zimmerman was forthright and confident. When the landlord stated exaggerations and lies, my defense attorney recognized this and exposed them. She did not allow extraneous, irrelevant information to be admitted as facts. The case was resolved in my favor due to Ms Poster-Zimmerman legal expertise and assertive presentation to the court. She is a true advocate for her clients and, she achieved a positive outcome for me. I cannot thank Ms. Poster-Zimmerman enough, and I highly recommend her legal services

Lynn was hired for trial in a case in which my son was ordered back to the state of New York 3 times. My ex took off with my son to another state. I personally didn't start having issues with my case until I hired lynn, she's very mouthy, as she told me, she goes to bars with judge porter, she worked with judge porter during covid when she was clerking. The problem here is judge porter allowed a woman to establish residency with a child in another state after 9 months. When my son was ordered back here. I spoke to lynn about how she had to be arrested for fleeing the state with a child without reason, she paused, I honestly felt she was playing all sides. She's a big talker, not a real doer, I had my rights maliciously violated by lynns buddy judge porter, and she stood ideally by and allowed my ex to establish residency in another state, definitely part of the problem and corruption in suffolk county

I hired Larry Flowers to represent me on a speeding ticket. I paid him in full, prior to my Court date. He said I did not have to appear because he would appear on my behalf. He ends up going to Court a day late and then calls me to tell me that they won't do any type of plea deal. TOTAL B.S. They wouldn't do anything because you forgot to show up! My license was suspended for 60 days FOR FAILURE TO APPEAR!!! Refused a refund as well. Find ANYONE ELSE to represent you. He's an incompetent clown. Run, don't walk!

If you want someone to screw you out your monies go to her I dealt with deformation and she sat there and allowed it everything I asked of her I get told wait for ops to expire guess what when ops expire she told me to do it myself no less the courts went to me the case is closed. I still don’t have my belongings and stuff I told her my sister’s manipulation of mom and sister’s intentions and guess what all my gut feeling no less proof was correct. Her going you don’t want to go to trial you’ll be embarrassed save your pride well I too when I could I contacted my nieces legal aid also had a nice chat she wasn’t thrilled my sister played her daughter a child I took care of since she was a infant to teens that live with me and mom on to hurt me I filled out a foil with family and children services found out even more lies told to me untrue. Thanks to a honest staff. At headquarters of family and children services telling me fill out a foil immediately. And after that year too my mother has had a fall and surgery and my sister walked just like she did when I lived there. Gosh on top my sister made sure other stuff was false all papers Natasha didn’t share with me just helped them scare me more and go I am happy you got your own place and move on with your life while my sister hovers over mom and controls her gains moms house when mom dies but while mom alive mom paying for all the food, the house costs as well the yard work even a electrical Pole outside on mom and the town’s property was about to snap sister didn’t report it to make sure yard safe for mom to mom able to do everything she said she was too old to do when I lived there but not I ain’t there she doing it and sister is living on her and oh well where is the justice huh when my mother ends up in a wheelchair or worse and then people will go why wasn’t anything done. Natasha you knew the lies etc gosh even I had audio proof to clear my name no less the first police report and others could been fought since I lived in that house 7 months after first time sister attacked me and flipped the storyline to accuse me no one would have someone live in there home for 7 month after that accusation no less order the person to stay home with them the person would have been removed immediately and Natasha you know it.

Gary Field is an efficient and competent attorney whom I find is rare in this field. His knowledge, professionalism, and integrity, are key ingredients which makes a great attorney. He has the respect of his colleagues and the administrators in the judicial system. Gary is extremely understanding and emphatic when it comes to handling complicated divorce and child custody issues. During my legal issue Gary suffered a personal loss in which that did not deter him the following day for appearing in court to ensure my visiting rights was granted. Unfortunately I did not find Gary until the middle of my legal issue which at that point went in the wrong direction very quickly and seemed that I would lose all my rights. Gary was successful in turning the opposition and getting my issue on better terms. I am grateful that I found Gary when I did or my case would have been lost.

I hired Mitch as my Attorney and he won my case! I did a lot of research before hiring him and could clearly see that he was the best when it comes to consumer protection litigation. He is very busy and does not have an assistant so I did have to follow up with him a few times but I didn't mind that because although he is my Attorney, it was still my case. I couldn't recommend Mitch more and greatly appreciate his expert council.

I tried to reach him afterwards and he never took my calls because he was too busy on big cases and never cared for my wife's case. I highly recommend to avoid his lawyer.

I am going through a divorce. Joe commits to every case he takes on. Long hours and he actually cares. These are some traits you don't normally see in lawyers. My case is very atypical. He listened and explained that the law is what matters and that is what is going to make the difference in my case. He knows what he is doing and I trust him. This case isn't so much about me, as it is really all about my child and the best interest of that child. He understands that my child will grow up without a real parent figure in his life if I don't have custody. That my ex will truthfully not be there for my child as the child grows. Ultimately that will have a lasting effect on the child and will be detrimental to his future. Joe is fighting to have that child with his parent, the parent that is actually there and will be there for the child. The one who knows and consistently works with the child. What the child likes and dislikes, how the child communicates, and when the child is trying to communicate because that parent is actually paying attention. A parent who will also make the decisions that will positively shape the child's life and create a much more stable atmosphere to grow up in.

Talks very loud and is very harsh. If you're even remotely sensitive or going through a bad time, I wouldn't recommend him because you'll end up feeling bad about yourself. He seems inconsistent with thoughts and actions. Divorce is hard enough without this type of treatment.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
