John was amazing. He and his staff was there for me at all times during my custody case. He was professional and upfront about everything. I was always aware of what to expect. John is a very "tell it as it is" kind of person. He is extremely passionate about what he does. I would recommend him to anyone!

He handled my divorce and child custody battle. I got my son and what i wanted. My ex husband and his lawyer didnt know what hit them! He gave me a GREAT payment plan deal. He is very understanding and his office team is very nice! I highly recommend him! And he gives you back whatever money he doesn't use!

John handled my divorce and did an excellent job. My children were my biggest concern and John did everything he could to help in that regard. It took some time, but in the end, I was awarded primary custody and we had a female judge.

John Izzo and his team went far and above the call of duty with our adoption of our daughter, which she was abandoned in our home at three months of age. John Izzo and his team fought tooth & nail from early 2010 to late 2011. And now here we are again from 2014 and pending to Aug. 10, 2015 in adopting our grandson. In a heartbeat without even thinking if in need again we will use Izzo law firm.

I had used John's services in the past for some business related items and was pleased with both the service and his character so the choice to retain him for my divorce was an easy one to make. A divorce is never easy and some very tough decisions must be made. I had to make a lot of these during my divorce proceedings and did not always see clearly when presented with the options. I will even say that I did not always agree with John's advice, but he turned out to be right every time. After accepting that I was wrong on some items, I came to realize that the best lawyers don't tell you what you want to hear, but what you need to hear. He and I both got emotional at times, but this was refreshing as other attorneys I have dealt with in the past were always so business like. I pray that I will never have to, but I would not hesitate to use his services again as I think he has and demonstrates real sympathy for his clients.

Starts by saying we got the worst judge on the docket and that will cost you (the client) more money. He works only by cell but does not return calls. Business card does not show e-mail. Uses a rent an office where rent-a- secretary admits "poor cell reception". Then he charges you for not calling him. Charges clients for postage, copies and for driving to court to represent you. Promises a successful outcome then gets to court and never says a word. Upon leaving the court asks for more Money to continue to fight this case. If you refuse to pay more he files a Motion for withdrawal from your case. if you agree to the withdrawal Mr. Izzo sends you an outrageous bill with fee's you never agreed to and of course the 3000.00 retainer did not cover. And this experience happened in a space of 2 weeks.

Navigating divorces and post divorce relationships is confusing and trying. Every time we have called John for advice we have been informed as to what the law says, what we can do and always leave feeling like we have someone on our side. We know that if something should go really wrong, all we have to do is place a call to John and know that he will be there, ready to help and lend a hand.

John Izzo represented me in my divorce. He prepares aggressively in case of a trial but is also willing to mediate or settle per your instructions. He doesn't escalate an already difficult situation just to run up the bill or squeeze a couple of extra dollars out of your ex, at the expense of any civility that might be left.
