I interviewed 13 lawyers before choosing Neal Simon to handle my divorce, and I'm very glad I did. He is very experienced, knowledgeable, respectful, and honest. He knows how to effectively de-escalate a situation, or bring down the hammer if needed. He would answer my questions thoroughly, and made sure I understood his recommendations at every step. I felt confident he was always looking out for my best interests, and would quickly take care of difficult issues as they arose. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Neal was my second lawyer in my divorce. The different between Neal and my first lawyer was night and day. Instantly my case got back on track, negotiations with my ex happened and were agreed to. On top of this, Neal was there for me personally as I asked many, many questions. I felt secure in a time of my life where I was at my lowest. He is a very honest lawyer and will tell you what you need to hear; no over promises, no grand statements. In fact, he has told me a few times that something wasn't worth going after. Later in life I was remarried and Neal helped me with those nuptial agreements. He handled them professionally and with haste. I am thankful and lucky to find Neal. If you need help navigating the tricky divorce path Neal will be there for you.

Brilliant guy and Lawyer. Very honest and works hard for his clients.

My divorce matter had a few interesting twists and turns. Neal Simon handled those twists and turns flawlessly. Beyond dotting the "i's" and crossing the "t's", Neal was a calming presence throughout my divorce, provided valuable advice and counsel.

I had an excellent experience with Neal Simon. His professionalism, clear communication, and expertise was outstanding. Most importantly he is very empathetic, guided me through the process seamlessly. I was satisfied with the outcome. Highly recommend!

Neal is very approachable and handled a 5 year litigation case for me with a great outcome. He is very conscientious and thoughtful in handling very sensitive and thorny issues....very good listener and good manner relating to extensive legal challenges and issues with constructive resolutions.

When I met with Neal about handling my divorce case he was amazing and calmed all my fears and answered any and all of my questions about my case. He was aggressive and got the results I needed. Neal always kept me up to date and had a very positive disposition to reinsure me that everything is going to be ok. I also want to add that his patience is of a saint. Divorce is emotional and hard.I am so glad I hired this firm.

Referred to the group by a colleague - and despite having common acquaintances, they still acted unprofessionally. Neal delegated most of my contact to his junior attorney and only ever spoke with me twice. My status updates, questions etc were ignored. Imagine my surprise in the midst of court proceedings, to be sent a note about their withdrawal. He didn’t even have decency to call me and tell me or explain what happened. The Junior Attorney, Nick, made all these grandiose promises to me while relaying who knows what to Neal. They quickly exhausted my $3,500 retainer drafting motions that I had never agreed to and already expressed serious concerns about. Ultimately, they were never filed. My own language was used in the motion that was filed so what was the purpose of paying them?! I’m honestly disgusted that all this money was wasted on a Group that lacked basic professional decency and follow through. The Rookie associate, Nick, talks a big game but has no clue what he’s doing. Neal being the First Chair didn’t care enough nor was he bothered to check Junior’s work. I wouldn’t recommend this Group to anyone- they behaved like wolves in sheep’s clothing during one of my most desperate times of need. Shame on them.

Neal Simon is an excellent attorney that I would highly recommend. He is extremely bright, skilled and responsive, as is his entire staff. Going through a divorce is a deeply emotional, private and confusing experience, throughout the entire process I felt confident that Neal would guide me, in the right direction, each step of the way. Both Neal and Mario are the perfect balance of kindness and professionalism. Thank you Neal and the entire staff of Ventrelli Simon LLC. for all the work you did on my behalf and supporting me along the way, I am grateful to all of you.

He Represented me years ago he’s the best ! He don’t play games he the best !

Contacted Mr. Salon on recommendation from family member for representation in a Domestic Battery case. He responded right away and was able to set up a consultation within a week. He communicated all the important details and updates to me throughout the entire case and excellent representation overall. Due to his persistent negotiations with the Lake County State's Attorney's office, my charges were eventually dismissed. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a defense lawyer in Lake County.

I was arrested for DUI with open Alcohol container in my car. I hire to Mr Salon, He is the best lawyer for DUI, all my tickets discharged and nothing stayed on my driving record. With Mr Salon , I always felt safe, protected and with the peace of mind of having the best defense. Thanks Mr Richard Salon
