You would think going with a major law firm would be more beneficial but it is not with Weinberger. My attorney did not explain what I'm entitled to and she gave me no guidance throughout the process. She told me things that were not true and when I confronted her about it she she ignored my concern about it. Towards the end of my divorce process Weinberger switched my attorney which is fine but then when I asked a few questions about the documents my previous attorney wrote up I was informed I would have to pay more money for my new attorney to look into it because she didn't write up the document but if I still had the original attorney working on my case it wouldn't cost me anything. Even though it is not my fault I still would have to pay according to them. It also took this law firm a full year after my divorce was finalized to change the deed of the house. They blamed it in Covid but what they didn't know is I was in touch with the county clerks office and Weinberger kept screwing up the paperwork and not paying the right amount to finalize the paperwork. I don't recommend this law firm at all.

Lost all faith in lawyers after this. Like I can't believe people get paid so much money on the misfortune of others. They don't truly care for their clients and will milk you for your last dollar.

The experience and professionalism that Richard Outhwaite brings with him to the courtroom is amazing. From the initial conversation, I knew my family was in the best of hands. We are grateful and highly recommend his team.

My experience with the attorney Veronica was excellent. Very professional, quick with her responses and guidance.

Very professional & prompt with responses. Thank you for all of your help and guidance during my extended COVID divorce process

The entire experience with this firm was extremely responsive to an urgent matter. I was extremely impressed with their expertise in the area which I need legal representation immediately. I am fully confident that the legal team with the Williams Group was more than the perfect decision. This was after speaking with them for a short time and felt my case was important to warrant immediate attention. I highly recommend to utilize the expertise of this legal team if you are looking for representation with any concern a lawyer may be needed. Legal counsel for a family matter I would certainly suggest calling the Williams Group. Judith Miller and Jamie, were empathic and showed a true sense of urgency They appointed Sean O'Connor Esq. to take our issue within less than a few hours. We are looking forward to their support to resolve and assist us with our legal matter. Thank you in advance to the Williams Group.

I reached out to this Firm during an emotional time while dealing with a domestic violence situation. They were attentive, caring, and professional and made sure everything was taken care of. I was assigned to attorney Sean O’Connor who honestly gave me the hard truths that I needed to hear and provided thorough, excellent representation to me and got the job done. I would definitely recommend them to others who need them.

I am currently working with Ms. Madziar and going through a very complicated divorce. I can't say enough wonderful things about her. She has been on top of every detail from day one!! Her professional expertise all while showing an extreme amount of kindness and compassion has made going through an enormously difficult process so much less painful for me and has giving me the confidence I need to know that everything will work out. She has left no stone unturned!! Thank you to the Williams Law Group for setting me up with such a wonderful and capable attorney!! Michele C.

I've spoken to several law firms including an in-person consultation prior to covid. Judith was professional, courteous, she took her time explaining how their law firm works, who I would potentially work with on my case and the fees. Most importantly, I never once felt judged (my case involves DCPP, Domestic Violence & other issues) or that she wasnt willing to provide information until I made arrangements to hire their firm. Based on that alone I would recommend seriously considering the Williams Law Group.

She was very professional and answered all my questions. Thank you so much for your time. I will contact you soon.

Are you looking for an experienced, knowledgeable and personable attorney? Look no more. Gary Natale is an outstanding lawyer. He represented me in a highly contentious divorce case. From the onset, Gary Natale was honest and forth coming about every aspect of the case. Unlike other attorneys with exorbitant billing and hourly rates, Gary keeps the cost affordable. Additionally, when the most usual situation occurred...a divorce trial, Gary fought for me to the very end. To top things off, I received the most favorable outcome with the final judgment being more than I had initially anticipated. Gary Natale has integrity, compassion and wants the best for his clients. He is truly a rare find within the legal field. Thank you Mr. Natale!

Gary J. Natale, Esq. is a very caring and professional attorney. He helped me through the most challenging time in my life. I knew I had a difficult case since it involved a catastrophic loss and a custody issue but Mr. Natale listened, made me feel confident and assured me that I was not alone in the matter. With his brilliant knowledge and thoroughness, he gave me what no other attorney could, my peace and life back. I could not of had a better outcome if it were not for Gary. I would and have highly recommended Gary J. Natale, Esq to my family and friends.

Gary Natale helped me through a life changing verdict and was there every step of the way. During this pandemic he was the only one willing to sit with me in person and hear me out. Noone would even talk to me with being paid first and only offered to talk over the phone. I hope to never ever need his services again but if I did need someone im calling him without a doubt

I owe a great deal of debt to Gary Natale for what he did to help preserve my place in my child life. He's a outstanding lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best attorney in New Jersey to represent you through what is one of the toughest experiences in life, a divorce. Gary is very honest and a true profesional. Thank You Gary

I called Bruce Gudin in regards to a landlord tenant issue. Me being the tenant. He gave me legal advice that left me more confident about my situation. I highly recommend contacting this firm. Also I didn't have to wait for a response or have to email anyone to get in contact with me.

Bruce Gudin was as thorough and efficient as he could be, especially in such a nontraditional setting. We spoke through emails and phone, yet he completely understood my concerns and questions, providing me exactly what I needed to know about my rights as a tenant and that my lease is indeed binding despite my landlord being a flip company that considers me nothing more than a barnacle to them that faithfully pays the rent on time and in full every month via certified mail. You only get one chance to make a first impression, so thank you, Bruce!

I reached out to Mr. Bruce E. Gudin Esq. Through email. I found an article that helped me better understand the Landlord Security Deposit rules in NJ. I reached out to him and he was pleasant, honest, and most importantly very quick to respond. His responses were concise and informative and prepared me to make the best decision in my situation.

I am a property investor and I had questions about collecting during this pandemic and about adding a legal unit to my property. I spoke with Derek Reed on the phone today and he was professional and incredibly informative. I will certainly use their services in the future.

This law firm is extremely professional and knowledgeable. I contacted them for advice on a collections case. They reviewed my case, answered all my questions, and provided excellent advice and strategy to move forward with my case. I knew I was in good hands with Mr. Gudin and his team. I was extremely happy with the outcome of my case. Highly recommend this firm for all your law necessities.

Courtney was super helpful and informative. We had what seemed to be an impossible situation, especially being first time home buyers in the middle of a pandemic, but Courtney and the team took the time to explain and support us every step of the way. Jeremy, Jessica, and Judy were also very helpful. The entire team made my husband and I feel so comfortable and as if we were in good hands. Thank you so much for making this stressful process to easy!

My ex and I could have an uncontested divorce through mediator. The mediator told us the divorce process could be very expensive and we could choose the mediation and get an agreement to divorce. Miklos, however, advocated that the divorce is simple and found all her questionable ways to squeeze money out of her clients. My ex is a simple and sick person (serious depression and think money is not important). Miklos has successfully squeezed around $40,000 out of him while our case still has long way to go. Miklos is a also a dishonest person. She could call me a liar in court while she knew absolutely nothing about the event occurred. She is an old lady pretending to be nice. Watch your wallet. Don't be fooled by her! I am reporting her to NEW JERSEY ATTORNEY ETHICS

Sotiria Makrogiannis is tough as nails, which is the type of attorney you need during what can be the most difficult time of your life. She represented me in my divorce and found a way to stand up for my rights when I was feeling too guilty, miserable and exhausted to fight back. I was ready to throw in the towel and quit. Thanks to Sotiria's strength and good counsel, I was able to go a few more rounds and the results were much better than they would have been if I had a less zealous attorney.

My gratitude and appreciation towards Sotiria Makrogiannis will be something that will accompany for the rest of my life. Sotiria is not only an experienced attorney but most importantly she is ethical, confident, dynamic, honest, and supportive. She is what I call a "Super Lawyer". She was always available and quickly replied to my emails, supporting me in every way. Thank you for supporting me through this difficult time and thank you for giving me the best results for my children and myself. You have made a difference in our lives! Thank you!

I highly, highly recommend the law firm Bielan, Miklos & Makrogiannis, PC to assist with your family law needs. Going through my divorce was an extremely difficult experience. With the expert guidance of Sotiria Makrogiannis, I made it through and learned a lot along the way. Sotiria was absolutely wonderful. She was always there for me from day one, quick to reply to emails, and up front about how the process works. She's incredibly fair. I value my relationship with Sotiria and admire the person and attorney she is. She is strong, driven, honest and extremely experienced in family law. When I look back on my divorce, I feel grateful that I was represented by Sotiria and would retain her again without hesitation. Thank you, Sot, for everything.

    My gratitude and appreciation towards Sotiria Makrogiannis will be something that will accompany for the rest of my life. Sotiria is not only an experienced attorney but most importantly she is ethical, confident, dynamic, honest, and supportive. She is what I call a "Super Lawyer". She was always available and quickly replied to my emails, supporting me in every way. Thank you for supporting me through this difficult time and thank you for giving me the best results for my children and myself. You have made a difference in our lives! Thank you!

    I highly, highly recommend the law firm Bielan, Miklos & Makrogiannis, PC to assist with your family law needs. Going through my divorce was an extremely difficult experience. With the expert guidance of Sotiria Makrogiannis, I made it through and learned a lot along the way. Sotiria was absolutely wonderful. She was always there for me from day one, quick to reply to emails, and up front about how the process works. She's incredibly fair. I value my relationship with Sotiria and admire the person and attorney she is. She is strong, driven, honest and extremely experienced in family law. When I look back on my divorce, I feel grateful that I was represented by Sotiria and would retain her again without hesitation. Thank you, Sot, for everything.

It’s been over a year since my divorce and I’m finally ready to write an honest review. I transferred my case to Bobby Epstein (Robert), after my initial lawyer mishandled my case. I had no clue how to get a divorce and I was shocked at how I suddenly felt like I found my personal advocate. He was up against older, established lawyers in Bergen county. His professionalism, expertise, creativity, patience, guidance, respect & ACCESSIBILITY were unmatched. He is well respected by his peers and judges in Bergen County. (I had the opportunity to observe his interactions during “downtime” in court.) He personally handled my case from beginning to end. (My previous firm pawned me off and I felt completely alone and overwhelmed. I could not reach her when an emergency situation came up. I was terrified but thought this is how it works, I guess- until I found Bobby from a friend who had used him.) Bobby truly cares. You are not “just a case”. He is not a “shark” by nature but the teeth come out when necessary. In fact, he is a likeable and compassionate human being who truly wants to help you get out of your marriage as quickly as possible with optimal results for his clients. His knowledge and passion for the law supersedes any ego that seems to hinder many lawyers from providing the quality service of advocacy you deserve (and spending so much money to receive!) Although Bobby is modest by nature he is secure & confident in his knowledge of the law to achieve the best result possible. He is extremely “quick” on his feet, which made me feel confident during mediation & court proceedings. The difficult personalities he encounters on a daily basis do not ruffle his feathers. He was cool as a cucumber yet attentive to my stress and anxieties. He was relentless in his pursuit to achieve the best results possible in the most timely fashion. My divorce took less than a year. MOST IMPORTANTLY, he will personally respond to your calls or emails ASAP!!!!! Thank Gd!!! Hire Bobby Epstein and don’t look back.

I endorse the legal services of Robert "Bobby" Epstein 100%. I am not a friend, classmate, prior acquaintance, neighbor or relative. This is not a paid or fake Internet recommendation. I researched qualified knowledgeable attorneys and asked Bobby to represent me in a complicated matter. Bobby took my case seriously. He threw himself into the research and the brief he filed was meticulously written. He was always very well prepared to present my arguments orally in court. He is mindful of billable hours and will work with you. A lot of lawyers don't care about you as an individual human - Bobby does.

While I had never thought I would be a person getting a divorce, when I knew I had to move forward, I will be eternally grateful that I was referred to Robert (Bobby) Epstein. Bobby was not only compassionate to my situation, but extremely knowledgeable and self assured. As I prepared to make the most difficult decision of my life, I was convinced that I had the right attorney. Sure enough, now that my divorce is behind me, I can look back and say that my legal representation was second to none. I felt confident throughout the entire process that I was receiving the best possible legal representation from an attorney who is tops in his field. I was also extremely pleased with the results. I highly recommend Robert Epstein if you must make the difficult decision to file for divorce.

I have had the pleasure of working with Vikki Ziegler and Jonathan Blonstein in the past few years. Both professionally and personally. Having met Vikki initially, she was very kind, caring and patient. I felt she was very down to earth and offered advice on how to help me achieve my goals while being realistic with expectations. I then worked with both Vikki and Jonathan Blonstein who is a bright attorney that brought ideas to the table and was my go to person to contact any time. As a real estate agent, we deal with many divorce and real estate closings. They also offer a closing department which is nice because individuals that might need a total service, can find everything under one roof. Super appreciative of their services and patience.

Ashley Manzi is by far one of the best attorneys I've ever worked with (business, personal, beyond). Her ability to be strategic and laser in on key priorities during the ever so stressful process of getting a divorce was only matched by her EQ and ability to "hear" out and navigate my situation. I would add that her responsiveness and thoughtfulness was incredibly invaluable to arrive at the best possible outcome in an expeditious manner. I just cannot say enough about her professionalism, thoughtfulness, and ability to get stuff done and do the right thing. She's also a lovely person and mom to boot! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is going through a divorce.

Dennis Shlionsky represented me in a rear end accident in South Amboy. The insurance company denied responsibility for my injuries because my car had minor damage. That’s when I called Dennis and I’m glad I did. Dennis was an excellent lawyer. He was always there for me at anytime I ever had any questions regarding my case. He was a major help from the second he took my case. I felt confident and comfortable with everything he did for me. Dennis is there to help you and make sure that you are aware of all that is going on and is thinking of your best interests at every turn. It was a pleasure working with him and I would highly recommend him to anyone that had suffered an accident or needs an attorney.

I came to Snyder Sarno in need of a strong attorney. I could not have made a better decision, Angelo and his team worked wonders with my case. They were extremely responsive, they walked me through things and held my hand throughout the case. Communication was always extremely transparent and from the beginning they helped me to understand what to expect. I have nothing but good things to say. I would highly recommend this firm for any Divorce and Family matters.

Michael Weil is unethical. He lies in behalf of his client. He manipulates judges inappropriately. Absolutely disgraceful.

It's a great atmosphere and the staff is always kind. They really have "direct access" as their priority and it definitely shows.

Very helpful and professional. Joe Maceri is great
