Mr. Spetalnick was extremely combative, unsupportive and literally called me “very stubborn” during our brief consultation. Not only did I feel as if I was being legally mansplained regarding my case but he was actively interrupting and belittling me as I candidly and vulnerably explained my situation. I felt as if he has defended many men in family law cases and was projecting a perspective against mothers in legal cases. He will not be retaining my services, and my hope is with this review he analyzes the privilege and patriarchy that propagate his behavior and will eventually catch up with him.

when my x stopped paying child support, I knew I needed help so I hired Jon Spetalnick. Mr. Spetalnick provided an initial consultation at no charge and thoroughly explained the process and the next steps. Rather than charge me by the hour, he provided a flat fee for his work up until the court date and a 2nd fee if we went to court. My x on the other hand, hired an attorney with a large practice who charged him an hourly fee and billed him for every little thing. Ultimately, we did not end up in court because of Mr. Spetalnick's hard work and expertise. It was clear that Mr. Spetalnick spent a great deal of time on my case and thought through the best way to document and present the facts to my x's attorney and to a judge if we ended up in court. We settled out of court and everything was in my favor. I definitely made the right decision when I hired Mr. Spetalnick and I know the overall cost was much less than it would have been had I hired an attorney who had charged me an hourly rate. Mr Spetalnick can be very direct, blunt and somewhat harsh at times, but don't let that scare you away. He's passionate about his work and works tirelessly for his clients.

Let's face it. Divorce can be nasty. Jon Spetalnick does an excellent job of representing and protecting the interests of his clients. I am very pleased with the final outcome of my divorce. I highly recommend this attorney

I called this Attorney because I referred to him from my company and as he would ask me things and as I was talking, he just talked over me and told me that I was cooperating and he became very short with me and said that I don't think I want to help you and hung up on me. This man thinks that he knows everything and judges do not like people like him. This man will just take your money and do nothing so do yourself a favor and RUN!!!!

I was reffered to this attorney through my job usng the employee assistance program and my marriage has been violent the whole time we were together. When I called him to tell him that I started paperwork for a TPO on my soon to be ex- husband, he says " You are COMPLICATING things! I didn't tell you to go get a TPO" I wouldn't refer him to my dog! He failed to be there when I needed him. I was going to hire him and the case would have been easy and straight to the point. Find a better lawyer than this one!

I have to say that I was blown away at first with Jon's gung-ho attitude to help a father in distress. 4 months later and over $15,000 in charges had me paying $2,500 in child support which was half of my bring home and only 40% parenting time with my children. He told me that this was the best deal for me due to my ex had something on me. All lies..
