Brad Micklin and Rachel Issacs both handled my child support emancipation and termination of alimony with the Court. They are strong advocates of Men's and Father's Rights. They work with you to achieve an equitable solution, developing strategies along the timeline, which are shared with the client. Their entire staff is very responsive and always acted courteously and professional. And even with restrictions due to COVID-19 restrictions their ability to conduct business remotely through various technology portals, should be commended. I would recommend their Law Group for an Family Court Legal issues or advice.

Didn't even get a chance to be represented because I accidentally missed my first online appt. When I called to apologize and ask to reschedule I was answered with, "If it happens again I won't get another chance". Thanks to Carmen, she should definitely not be the one answering potential client phone calls. Very unprofessional and obviously not the firm for me.

I felt compelled to write another review about Brad Micklin. As I was preparing to represent myself in court after getting screwed over and wasting a ton of money on an ineffective lawyer, i became nervous and overwhelmed, as any Novice would. I had a deadline to meet and for lack of better terms I needed someone to hold my hand and walk me though steps that i was uneducated about couldn't find on my own conducting independent research. Brad gave me advice days before my deadline. although this was helpful and I didn't want to bother him, i reached out to him one more time with time-sensitive matter i needed him to look over. However, he had to prepare for a case and didn't have the time to look over my last minute details (Which is completely understandable especially since i wasn't a paying client and he already went out on a limb and helped me several times thus far.) I woke up the next morning telling myself, F$%^ it, i'll send it as is, i did the best that i could. I looked in my e-mail and there was an e-mail from Brad. He informed me that he had a few moments to spare , he gave it a once over , went above and beyond of me asking for advice and edited the document i sent over and wished me Luck. All you single Dads who haven't gotten screwed over yet, I strongly encourage you to retain Brad. When i tell you he has your best interest at heart, he does. He turned down hiring me as a client, advised me to save my money and instructed me on how I could effectively get the result I wanted on my own. I will forever be Grateful.

Words can’t do justice to Brad Micklin and his team. My consultation was with Brad. I didn’t feel rushed, I didn’t feel pressured, I felt comfortable and most of all I felt like I had someone on my side for my daughters best interest. I worked with Rachel Isaacs as well and she was great. Everyone that I had any interaction with was very courteous and respectful. Everyone was knowledgeable and helped me through this difficult time. Brad made himself available to me at all hours. His wife Carmen is absolutely amazing and was extremely emotionally supportive. I appreciate everything that they have done for me and even now continuing to help me with the ongoing issues that come up with my daughters father. If I ever need a lawyer again, I will definitely use them!

I had never been in a courtroom before in my life until I was in need of a restraining order as a result of domestic violence. The best decision I made for myself was to hire Brad Micklin of the Micklin Law Group to represent me. You may notice that Brad usually represents men but in my case, as a woman, I felt secure and protected in court with Brad by my side. His style in court is very clever and strategic and he doesn't miss a thing. If the opposing side or even the judge says something questionable or inappropriate, Brad will catch it and call them out! He made sure the trial was fair and that my testimony was heard. The staff are very polite, responsive and professional. I always understood what was on my invoice and when payments were due. I pray that you, reader of this review, have happy and healthy relationship. But if you do ever need a family law attorney, I recommend that you call Brad.

Excellent and very caring. Wonderful and professional care to her clients. Would highly recommend to all.

Lucy Agostini was our lawyer during the sale of our house. She is reliable, efficient, and honest. Lucy communicated with my husband and I very well and made herself very available whenever we had questions throughout the process. She made great recommendations and steered us correctly the entire time. We highly recommend Lucy Agostini and her team!

Lucy Agostini is a very professional, skilled and compassionate attorney and I can not recommend her more highly! She was always on top of things and responded to any questions or concerns I had quickly. She handled my divorce, the sale of my house and the closing on my new home. I have recommended her to my friends and plan on using her anytime in the future when I need an attorney. Her staff is also wonderful.

A friend of mine recommended Ms. Agostini to me when I was looking for an attorney to handle my divorce. I had previously seen another attorney but didn’t feel comfortable with him at all. As soon as I met Ms. Agostini, however, I immediately felt that she was much more than just an attorney. She led me through the long and painful divorce process with patience, tact and kindness. Most importantly, of course, Ms. Agostini is an exceptionally skilled attorney. My divorce was complicated by the fact that I got married abroad, so she had to research the different legal aspects involved. She did it in a very thorough and complete manner, and that ended up being very helpful when my ex-husband's attorney came to court without having done much research at all. Ms. Agostini is also a very accomplished negotiator, and in her calm but determined way, she drives up her points one by one. She was able to get me a settlement which was more than I had expected when I first reached out to her. I highly and warmly recommend Ms. Agostini to anybody in needs of an attorney who is experienced, skilled, warm, caring and down to earth.

I have used Lucy exclusively for the last 15 years. Her level of professionalism is unmatched in matrimonial law, mediation and real estate. I have been very happy with her services and legal counsel. She left no stone unturned in securing the best outcome for me, involving divorce proceedings and mediation. She has handled real estate closings for us as well, with the same outstanding results. I can't thank her enough for her patience and diligence in every situation.

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

Mr. Natale is an exceptional lawyer! He worked very hard to protect my rights, he's a valuable lawyer whom is worth your time and money, couldn't be any more grateful for his hard work, I highly recommend him!

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.

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

    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.

I retained Loren based upon the recommendation of a family friend. She is an extremely professional and results oriented attorney with excellent negotiating skills. Loren is very understanding of the emotional toll that divorces take on her clients and was always very responsive and accessible when I needed to speak with her. She is very compassionate and always provided very sound advice and recommendations that were both cost effective and in the best interest of my family. Loren successfully negotiated a very fair divorce settlement, and I am very satisfied with the outcome. I am very thankful to Loren and her staff for their professionalism, and dedication.

I walked into Ms. LaForge’s office after firing a previously retained lawyer and was feeling very defeated about the prospect of being able to relocate with my son following my divorce. Ms. LaForge instantly put me at ease (she just has that type of demeanor) and assured me that even though it would be a fight, she was positive she could make it happen. And she did. Throughout multiple issues with my exes lawyer, extensions offered to the defendant by the judge, and even a pandemic, she remained steadfast and focused. She NEVER stopped working for me, making me feel as though I was her only client. Every step of the way was communicated and she navigated every hurdle with ease and professionalism. Ms. LaForge is kind, tough, knowledgeable, outspoken, and great at what she does. She is worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!

I retained Loren in my divorce from my husband of 17 years. Loren is amazing. She is compassionate, honest, knowledgeable, and tough. She was incredibly responsive at all hours, even late at night and weekends when issues arose with visitation and such. From the day I consulted with her, her no nonsense style is direct and honest. She informed me of my legal rights and what my son and I where entitled to and never stopped fighting for us. Going through such a life changing event it was wonderful having a strong and powerful ally in my corner. She always put my mind at ease that she was in control. She is top notch and I would recommend her highly to anyone in search of a Family Law attorney. Thank you Loren for everything!

I had the privilege of having Loren as my divorce lawyer through a very tough divorce. She was there for me every step of the way. Her friendship, loyalty, knowledge, no-nonsense style and ethics are of the highest standards. I never had to wait long for a response to any question or problem I had and even after my divorce was final I still need her services at times. It is comforting to know I always have her there for me for guidance. Loren is assertive, orally articulate, and has excellent communication skills. I highly recommend Loren!!!

Mrs. Loren LaForge is a top notch experienced lawyer who truly understands family law & knows how to leverage information to best support her client. She has a special place in her heart to support women and mothers. I hired Mrs. LaForge for a post divorce case against my ex husband who is a narcissist & his family who has deep pockets to fight endlessly and ongoing. Mrs. LaForge went to the batting field (she’s a shark!) for me and my children. Her background in psychology is a big bonus. I highly recommend her and would hire her again (hopefully not ????????) if needed.

I went to Peter when my marriage of 36 years was crumbling my wife had filed for divorce I was to say the least devastated I went to Peter after I had hired the wrong attorney for the divorce Prior to peter and things became a real mess . Peter was from the first day concerned and actually cared he showed tremendous human compassion throughout this whole mess he was not just an attorney to me he was a friend he listened and did not judge and if I had not had him in my life and as my attorney I truly don’t think I would have made it through it I was extremely painful as time went by my wife realized what a nasty mean and zero compassion of her attorney she had hired and realized peter was not the enemy nor was I we just drifted apart the whole time Peter encouraged my wife and I to talk he want us to have great communication not like her attorney trying to put us at odds constantly as time went on peter postponed the final divorce as I asked on several occasions as my wife was now broken shattered as I was she needed more time and peter gave us just that in the end my wife divorced although thanks to peter and his kind words and compassion became better friends than ever we still love and respect each other and all I can say is peter and his wonderful secretary deb were sensational I urge you before you make a mistake hire peter you won’t regret it and he was fair priced it was always a pleasure to pay him a Divorce can be one of the biggest things to face so please I urge you to do it with the best attorney friend and great human being on your side because there are no sides as I learned just a degree of loss with that being said thank you peter from the bottom of my heart and my prior wife feels the same way we will never forget the cad she hired and how peter saved us in so many ways again thanks Peter ????

I can't rave enough about The Law Offices of Peter Van Aulen. From my first initial contact with them I knew instantly that Peter was going to be an excellent lawyer for my case. Not only is he a fantastic lawyer, but he is very understanding, knows how to listen to his clients, and extract those details which make a big difference when dealing with difficult cases. Peter has a mind-set that few people do and I appreciate every effort he has made with my case. My case was very difficult and he was always right on with focus on the right attitude. He faithfully commits to get the job done accurately. I didn't know many law terms until he explained things so easily for me. He's not just some lawyer like many others out there who want to be quick with your case, he takes his time and explains everything before standing in front of a judge. He made me feel comfortable and had a willingness to do what it takes. I highly without a doubt recommend Peter and his team all the way!

Peter is an awesome attorney. First of all, before taking action, Peter would always explain to me the next step of action he was going to take & why he was doing it. He took the time to explain to me very well each & every step of the way so I understood what the ongoing process was & what to expect. There was some tough decisions to make, & very fortunately for me, he was correct every time. He is very confident & knows what he is doing. I am extremely satisfied with his work & will continue to use his services & recommend him to others.

Peter provided legal advice and guidance through a difficult situation. He is knowledgeable, experienced, responsive and understanding. Through my situation I felt I was in trustworthy hands which was a huge relief for me. Thank you Peter for helping me through such a trying time for me. I greatly appreciate it.

5+ Stars Excellent Service. After 7 years of efforts with other divorce lawyers, Peter Van Aulen accomplished what they could not. Extremely Professional and skilled Attorney. An Excellent Attorney and I Highly recommend him to all and anyone who seeks this line of legal representation.

    Finding a great attorney can be challenging, especially when part of your search relies on on-line reviews. During our search, I made several phone calls to various attorneys, but Mr. Vito Brunetti was the only one willing to spend time answering questions regarding the adoption of my (step)son. He gave me and my wife a level of comfort that we could not find with other attorneys. We hired him and never looked back. Mr. Brunetti was thorough and attentive, keeping us informed every step of the way. His professionalism was on display every time we reached out with “just one more” question and our calls and emails were always answered in a timely manner. Without any hesitation, I would strongly recommend Mr. Brunetti to anyone that has a family matter that needs legal counsel. I will always be grateful to Mr. Brunetti for making the adoption of my son possible!

    I can't recommend divorce attorney Vito Brunetti to anyone who is seeking marriage divorce. The attorney doesn't listen to their clients. Instead, he narrates well rehearsed narratives over the phone to fill in the 30 minute intervals and you can't even ask a question. He is rude, unprofessional and can't distinguish K-1 Schedule from 1099 on income taxes. I've lost time and thousands of dollars by working with him and had to find another attorney to continue with my case.

    Thank you Vito for getting my case to a successful resolution! I can recommend Vito to anyone looking for a divorce or other family law issue in the Hudson Country. With Vito's attention to details all the Ts would be crossed, all the Is would be dotted and things would go forward in a timely predictable manner.

    Vito helped me through every step of a very tough time in my life. Vito is honest, accessible, knowledgeable, thorough and compassionate. He listens to his clients and will fight tenaciously on your behalf. I highly recommend Vito if you find yourself in need of a family attorney.

    When I was looking for a lawyer for my extremely complicated divorce and meeting with tons of them to see who would be the best fit, Vito was the first one to give me actual advice during my free consultation. Repeatedly he said "even if I don't represent you, you should do a...b...and c.." This was my first sign that I would be in good hands. During my very lengthy divorce Vito has shown himself to be a true champion for my daughter and I. He has been honest, professional, and caring during one of the most traumatic times of my life. He has repeatedly helped me cut down on his legal costs and given me compassion during my darkest hours. As my divorce finalized he was honest and let me know this would not be the last of our time in court. He was not only right, but has continued to fight for me and my daughter as this has evolved into a custody dispute. I am forever grateful for his support and advice on our ongoing case, and at no point have I ever felt he wasn't fighting for us. He genuinely has our best interest in his heart, and I would, and have, recommended him to anyone who is having a difficult divorce that requires more than just a person to file motions. Thank you Mr. Brunetti, as I continue to work with you I'm amazed at your dedication and knowledge and my daughter and I are safer because of you.
