Joseph Gruner drafted my post divorce will for me. His many years of experience gave me the confidence I needed in a professional through this process, but it was his humanity, heartfelt kindness and compassion that made the experience so much easier. My calls were always answered and I was made to feel very comfortable about any questions I might have, no matter how small, they were always treated with respect and thankfully much patience.

I have known Joe for a long time. Not only is he a great Lawyer but also a friend. He has helped my wife and I as well as my Mother -in-Law get our legal house in order from Wills, POA's, Health Care Proxy's, etc. He is always available to answer questions and give sound legal advice. I would recommend Joe to anyone who needs legal help or to understand planning for the future.

I couldn't recommend Joe Gruner more highly for his legal services. He helped me with a very difficult apartment closing in Brooklyn, and worked to defend my interests when the developer did not meet his contractual obligations. Joe is kind and professional, acting with the highest level of integrity. He also knows when to be tough and how to do it professionally. His wealth of experience is irreplaceable - no one situation is the same and he knows how to prepare his clients for all outcomes. We have had a simply excellent experience with Joe Gruner and I highly recommend his work.

Joe Gruner is a unique lawyer in that he puts your needs 1st. I would highly recommend Joe for any and all of your financial decision making in regard to your estate and wills. This is an easy referral.

Joe helped me get all my estate docs together. He made the process as easy as it could be, explained all the things I didn't understand (and there were many :-) so they made sense to me communicated well. He was a nice combination of compassionate and professional. Looking back, I'm so relieved to have that vital process completed

Has been our family and business lawyer for many years and would highly recommend his legal services. His honesty and integrity is highly valued.

Karen represented me for my, at times, grueling child custody case and was very knowledgeable in all matters regarding my case. She was also very truthful with me and never made any empty promises and was very straight with me from the beginning on what’s realistic. Karen gave me several options on what I could do and was very clear on all of them regarding how each option would take vs cost, and together we made the best option for me. When financial burdens had fallen upon me she was very understanding of my finances. I was really happy to have her in my corner and I couldn’t be happier with the services I received. And you can tell that she genuinely cared about me and my situation. She is the best I have seen and I feel so lucky I was able to work with her. Thank you Karen for helping me get through one of the most difficult times of my life. J.S.

I came to know Karen Jansen by way of a mutual acquaintance when the prospect of divorce became a reality for me. Looking back I now recognize how fortunate I was for having received that referral. Throughout my entire divorce process Karen’s professionalism, exceptional legal acumen and genuine regard for my best interest were ever present. Further, Karen was steadfast in her quest for a fair and equitable resolution on my behalf, which we ultimately achieved. Never did I feel like a “client” instead, I felt like I was working with a trusted and devoted partner. I would highly recommend Karen for representation in a divorce / mediation. As your legal counsel her dedication and commitment are unmatched.

Karen represented me in both a child custody case and child support case. Both cases ended in my favor. Karen is always well prepared, and phone calls and emails are always answered promptly. I do not hesitate to recommend her to others. LS Sent from my iPad

Karen Jansen has been my attorney on and off for past 11 years. During this time, Karen has been wonderful in the way she has always approached and handled my case. Her counsel, availability, attention to detail, honesty—letting me know what is possible under the law and what is not, and her representation in the court room has been nothing short of exceptional. Karen may be an expert at the law, but she also listened very well and valued my opinion every step of the way. Last but not least, Karen runs a very ethical practice and that meant the world to me… WB
