Experienced, efficient, reasonable and a professional firm to do business with. Hugo and his staff were fantastic.

Rebecca and her paralegal Mariann were amazing to work with during my divorce. She helped me reach final orders in a little over 30 days for a case that had been going on for a little over a year. She is very fast in her replies, thorough in her responses, professional in every regard, and empathetic as well. She is a pleasure to work with.

STAY AWAY. Wish I had. Michelle Dellino is unethical and incompetent. She is only out to ring up the bill, and does not actually have any solid legal advice or straight answers for you. She is a terrible lawyer- GREEDY, does NOT have your best interest, and just wants to drag the case on. I am speaking as a former client, who had to FIRE her halfway through my case, and hired another attorney to replace her. Best. Decision. Ever. My new attorney turned out to be fantastic and completely turned my case around (name below if you are in need of an actual good divorce lawyer). Sad but true story. The details below if you want to read on. I initially went to her "meet and greet" / get-free-advice from-an-attorney session, held at a restaurant with her crew of financial advisor and real estate broker partners. In hindsight, that should've been my first tip off. Then I scheduled a paid 1:1 consultation and I hired her because liked what I heard and believed her advice. She basically told me what I wanted to hear regarding custody, financial support, etc., and it all sounded very favorable for me - which should've been my 2nd tip off. A real lawyer looking out for your best interest wouldn't tell you all good things, it would be balanced w good and bad news, but how they can help to obtain your main objectives. Once the divorce started and she was hired, the sh!t show started. - instead of fighting to keep me and my 2 very young kids in our house, she instead INTRODUCED ME TO HER REAL ESTATE BROKER. Dellino told me that I had to move, (even when my daughter just started school) and that I had to sell the house. That is ridiculous (and turned out to be untrue). When I followed up and pressed on this, she instead asked if I've reached out to her RE broker and insisted I do that instead of trying to fight for us to stay in the home. BIG RED FLAG. -Then we attended mediation for temporary orders. In the mediation, she was completely useless. I felt like I was there on my own, battling my ex and his lawyer by myself. She didn't advocate for anything! Plus her advice turned out to be completely different than what she said at the initial consultation. It just went back and forth, with Dellino not taking charge of anything. In fact, she was there on her laptop "multitasking". The session ended up taking 10 HOURS. The most excruciating 10 hours of my life. Turns out, this should've NEVER been the case. My new attorney basically was in shock when I told him and said that's not typical. It should've only been 4 hours max, especially for temporary orders. Dellino and my ex's lawyers made out like bandits on us... charging at $425/hour, so no wonder she dragged that out for so long. Ka ching! ANOTHER EPIC FAIL. After that, the case just went no where. I kept trying to get advise and direction, and received very little to none. Though her emails and convos with me were very lengthy (all billable)... they did not hold any clear direction or strategy on the case. Not only that, she did not defend me against my abusive ex and his lawyer. She just forwarded their emails and said "see below". I didn't need a glorified email coordinator, I needed a lawyer!! At this point, I made a risky move-- and FIRED HER. Best. Decision. Ever. I hired another lawyer, Gordon Lotzkar, to replace her and he turned out to be amazing!!! He came highly recommended and sure enough, they were right. He turned things around instantly. Took command of the case. Put my ex and his pitbull lawyer in the corner. Gave me solid advise, the good and bad parts of it all, and let me decide. He helped me to prioritize my objectives, and went to work. In the end, he helped me to fight for what I wanted. And I got it. He delivered the results, protected me and looked out for my interest the entire way. That's how a lawyer should be. Michelle Dellino needs to seriously reconsider why she went into family law. I utterly regretted ever working with her and don't wish this on anyone. Don’t hire her!

I had a fairly complicated divorce which means I ended up working with several different people at Dellino. Everyone I worked with was fantastic and my case had a very favorable outcome. I would 100% recommend this firm.

I really have enjoyed working with Delino Law. I was evaluating various lawyers, but Ashley, their Client Liaison paralegal's personal touch and sincere care was a big reason on why I chose to work with Delino. Then, working her and attorney Hugo was very seamless, they met my needs and worked with me on a model that would best fit my needs, and calmed down my anxieties. Highly recommended.

I hired Jorge originally through Divorce Lawyers For Men. I was an emotional wreck with knee-jerk reactions to just about everything. Yet, Jorge led me through the darkness with understanding and patience, working with me to resolve the divorce swiftly and as amicably as possible. I would recommend him to anyone and if I needed to, hire him again in an instant. Thanks Jorge!

Dellino Law Group I have only good things to say about Dellino Law Group. Before working with them I was at a loss. Dellino turned this around for me and I cant thank them enough. I would highly recommend Dellino Law Group to anyone. If you think your case is to complicated or hard and you cant find anyone that can make a difference call them. They take pride in their work.

Great Law Firm. They provided world class customer service. They were up front with me about the fees, what services they would provide, what they could do for me, and what documentation they needed. Things went extremely smoothly. I highly recommend this firm to anyone.

Thank you doesn't cut it! In a very difficult case, Michelle really got me through. Her responsiveness and attention to detail all during stressful situations is a cut above anyone else I have ever worked with and unfortunately, this is not my first time working with attorneys. Her knowledge in family law is superior and she is who you want arguing for you if you find yourself in that situation. Thanks to the whole team. I appreciate you!
