I decided to hire Irene after consulting with a few attorneys regarding my child custody case. What made her stand out is her experience working at the Children’s Law Center of NY and her attention to detail. She asked pertinent questions that would be critical to my case and explained the importance of those questions. I felt she was frank and sincere which I appreciated because it gave me a true sense of what I should expect with my case. Thanks to her counsel there were no surprises, I felt completely confident in her abilities from my first court date and watching her represent me. If you are looking for an attorney who is professional, knowledgeable in child laws and all around a straight shooter I would recommend Irene to anyone who needs a family lawyer.

Irene handled my divorce, and I would give her more than 5 stars here if I could. She was not only very knowledgeable and experienced in her field, but inspired so much confidence that everything was going to turn out ok (which it did, better than ok actually). She handled every situation with compassion and was sensitive to even the most delicate issues, she basically took the stress and worry out of my hands and handled everything, with a level of confidence and competence that was very reassuring. She never failed to give me excellent advice and was always responsive when I needed to get in touch with her, she returned my calls promptly and never left me hanging or wondering if my interests came first. And she was a fierce advocate for those interests at all times, she maintains professionalism but never lets the other side push her around. I don't think you could be in better hands, if you want somebody who will go to bat for you and make sure your case is handled the best way possible. I'm truly thankful to know Irene and to have her work on my case.

Irene is an excellent lawyer who helped through a very difficult time in my life. She was always there for me when I needed her, even on weekends and holidays! She always knew how to handle every situation. She worked out the best resolution possible for me with confidence. She looked at all angles of the situation and did what was best for me and my family, and at a very fair price. I highly recommend her for anyone considering divorce.

I had a very challenging case involving custodial and support stipulations and I wasn't sure what my rights were. Irene was very patient and asked me all the pressing informational questions and provided all the best advisement on how to file my paperwork and assert myself to do the best by my family. She's very precise and no-nonsense, explaining things very easily so you walk away feeling confident and knowledgable.
I've recommended her to many others who need a reliable attorney to help them through family court litigation etc.

I recieved a warrantless order of protection from my 17 year old child's mother who attempted to get back custody of the child at 17 for child support benefits after a disagreement. After being served I new I needed a great lawyer in the family court field. I was referred to law firm partner Irene Angelakis. And from the first 15 minutes speaking to her I felt confident that I will defeat the case and close this chapter Asaap. Irene was knowledgable, intellectual, experienced, professional, and I sincerely felt before and during the 2 day court appearance before having the case won and dismissed Irene cared about me and my family. As far as finciancially of course she must make a living but the retainer fee and final cost of both was very financial pro friendly and reasonable for a middle class guy like me. I love it! Irene lastly I want to say thanks you so much and you deserve the advertised praise you get already!

Irene is a highly experienced attorney with an expertise in family law. I have had the pleasure of working with her on many high conflict cases and was always impressed with how she zealously advocated for her clients. She is a skilled trial attorney whom I would strongly recommend.

If you need a lawyer for family courts issues Irene is the partner you need. I have a difficult ex-spouse and not a huge budget and Irene handled everything better than anyone could. I recommend her highly. Don't waste your time talking to other people who will promise you the world and deliver nothing and just keep racking up your bill.

I worked with Irene a few years ago and she exhibited stellar qualities as a trial attorney. Irene was totally prepared, confident, caring and professional. Since then, she has become a remarkable, seasoned, matrimonial attorney. Clients trust her and their trust is warranted. I am proud to call her a colleague and thankfully she raises the bar for other Family/Matrimonial attorneys.

Best decision i ever made. Irene is an aggressive litigator that really takes the time to make sure you walk away with the best possible outcome. She is relentless in fighting for her clients needs, and never backs down from a challenging situation. If you need a divorce lawyer, this is your champion!
