I live in northern B.C. Canada and Agnes was well prepared, professional and handled my NJ child support case with care and attention. I think it was the fastest ruling she ever had! Would highly recommend her and her staff. Thanks

EVERYONE WAS HELPFUL AND MADE A EFFORT TO RESPOND TO ALL OUR CONCERNS

Don't waste your money here she will not go against the judges for you in ocean county family court, she works with them get an attorney out of toms river. Mrs. Rybar responded to my review with a lie she said a free consultation she charged me 100$ dollars for a half hour consultation. Do the math! That's not FREE Lawyers can't trust them, I'm just being honest. If your a father don't go here!

Agnes, complimented by her staff, excelled with handling my divorce motion. I had previously submitted a similar motion to the court; which was denied in every facet. Agnes demonstrated aggressiveness in submitting to the court several prior rulings that supported my motion and was accepted by the court. These were fundamental as part of the favorable decision on my motion. Additional, garbled financial information was analyzed and presented to further enhance the decision. Agnes and her team were prompt in responding to my advisory petitions to the court and countered sustaining my motion statements. When the matter was sent to an arbitrator, the “Give and Take” was most favorable to my motion Agnes and her staff consistently excelled in handling all facets of my divorce proceedings. Tom Fitzmaurice Jr.

Agnes and her team worked with me threw probably one of the worst time in my life and was able to help me to get Joint custody of my 2year old daughter. It was a very ruff year not only for me but for my daughter as well and they helped me so much and I’m so great full how everything has turned out. It took some time and they were very patient with dealing with me during a challenging time. Again I would definitely recommend Agnes Rybar for anyone dealing with any Family related issues. Thank You so very much.

Jeff was incredibly informative, knowledgeable and patient with me. Not only did he provide me with the information I was looking for, he also took the time to make sure every question I had was answered. It is clear that he cares about his clients beyond the realm of obligation. He is incredibly kind and down to earth and made me feel extremely comfortable. Not only an amazing lawyer, but clearly an incredibly decent human being, which is hard to come by today.

I spoke with Jeff Horn in regards to my issue. He was beyond pleasant and helpful. He took his time and informed me that pursuing legal action may not be in my best interest and pointed me in the direction that would better suit my needs. I honestly can not say enough nice things as he is just a genuinely nice, good person. Thank you so much Jeff! I highly recommend him!

Mr. Horn was very professional and empathetic with my case, regarding my divorce. I believe he has my best interest at heart and was willing to help right away. I would Recommend this law firm to others going through a divorce or family matter.

My husband and I recently called Jeff Horn to speak about a custody issue. He is the only lawyer who took the time to hear us completely out give us fair pricing and make us hopeful with our next steps. We will be using this law firm with any legal matters in the future.

Mr. Horn was extremely helpful and informative. He answered all of my questions. He was honest with his answers and explained the process very clearly. He is very professional and kind. Would highly recommend.

Words cannot explain how thankful I am to Linda and her staff! My divorce was a nightmare and they were with me through the entire journey. They are professional, organized and honest. Always returned my calls and emails quickly. Even through the pandemic, they remained prompt and organized. I would highly recommend them.

In 2019 we were ordered to seek out a mediator, we agreed upon Linda piff to discuss a very specific court order. I had provided a copy directly to her office and brought a second copy during our mediation session. Linda piff refused to discuss what was directly on the court order, stated she would write up a mediation order which she did not. Linda piff is not for a father, she took sides and did not have the child in the best interest. I paid the balance in full and have never received the mediation order, the office staff refuse to provide me any information on paper. Moral of the story, if your father don't go to Linda piff. If you want your child's best interest taking into consideration don't go to Linda piff

I was served divorce papers while I was away on business, even though my ex and I had agreed to use collaborative law to avoid extra fees and aggravation. Being upset and shocked by this, I reached out to a close friend who recommended Linda to me. Even though collaborative law was unfortunately taken off the table, Linda also had the expertise in traditional divorce law. I contacted her immediately and her kind staff quickly calmed me down and assured me that I was going to be okay. Linda worked diligently on my case. My ex’s attorney sent non stop threatening communications and not once did Linda let that effect our progress. The demands from my ex, especially with regards to alimony, were so overwhelming for me but Linda did a great job explaining the NJ law and helping me to understand how we could move forward in a way that would be fair. My divorce was finalized after 6 months which is so quick compared to the nightmares that I hear from other friends. The biggest thing I want to stress in this review is, not only Linda’s tremendous knowledge and her staff’s sense of urgency, but the kindness and support that I felt during the entire process. I would call the office crying and within minutes my mind was put at ease. I would get concerned about the future for my daughters and I and Linda and her staff would be my encouragement. I feel blessed to have been referred to Linda and am very grateful that I had her by my side.

I hired Linda for her assistance with my divorce after 21 yrs of marriage. Linda and her team are experts in the field of collaborative divorce, were always professional, courteous and responsive. Linda and her team made me feel comfortable and secure in an otherwise very uncomfortable and insecure environment. The outcome was to my expectations and I would highly recommend Linda and her team to anyone having to go through the unfortunate, life changing experience of a divorce.

Never expecting to ever get a divorce I found myself in this situation. Not knowing where to go I was recommended to call Linda Piff. This was the best choice I could of made. Though it was a horrible time in my life, Linda was always there for me and made me feel comfortable and strong through it all. Thank you Linda for helping me through this time in my life. You made a bad situation into a wonderful experience.

I called Brian with my case about a family matter. I am a law abiding citizen with little faith in our justice system. As , I feel you are more guilty till proven innocent, than the way it is actually said in reality. Brian took the time out from the first phone call to understand my case. When I thought of something during the wait for trial, he always was there to give an ear . As I was nervous at trial , Brian made me feel comfortable and relaxed while awaiting our ZOOM case to start. Brian took control and got my case dismissed on the first day . I applaud and thank Brian and his office for handling this matter and I am happy with the end results ! I would recommend Brian and his office to anyone that wants a lawyer that actually listens, is there for you and gets the job done !

Michael Wenning worked endlessly for almost a year straight on my trial! It was Criminal Matter/DV/RO/ Custody Matter! Michael Answered every phone call i made. Michael Strategic way of this matter was focus on my children and what mattered most was the Best interest of the children. My situation was difficult one. 2 Violations on Ro/ and final Ro pending with custody battle. Michael showed true talent because after 6 hour trial, 3 day back and forth He made sure he provided me exactly what I was searching for and proved to the Court the truth and providing customer satifaction i am writing this full matter because there are people in my situation that feel there is no hope! Mike gave me hope and as calm as he is, his knowledge of factual evidence and cross examination was handled with true talent and after year fighting he got Me my babies back thank you Michael! And Brian Winters is in my eye also true lawyer his Knowledge and skills these two lawyers do not back down they stand by what they feel is nessary For handling each situation! True Super lawyer Michael Wenning and Brian Winters have stood by me and always delivered. Thank you!

Anything but Dry I have often heard it said that in order to be a lawyer one needs to be stern and have a dry personality. I can honestly say this is the farthest thing from the truth after working with Amy Harris. I tried to represent myself when I initiated a divorce process a few years ago. Due to my lack of legal knowledge, I was unsuccessful. After realizing this was something I could not do on my own, I went in search of a lawyer that would be a good fit for me. I called thirty lawyers before choosing one to work with. All the lawyers I talked with on the phone were not friendly and even worse then that, they had bone dry personalities. Amy Harris was the only lawyer that agreed to talk with me on the phone, when I let her know how difficult it would be to come meet in person, due to child care issues. I knew right away after talking with her that I had found the perfect fit for me. Amy has been an absolute joy to work with and to be around. She is compassionate, organized, and has a stellar sense of humor. Lawyers can get a bad rep. People think they are only in it for the money. While I have only worked with one lawyer in my life thus far I have come to a different conclusion. Lawyers can see the end when we can’t. For that very reason they are able to offer sincere encouragement and support when one feels like all hope is lost. Not only can they see the end, they are the ones who create the roadmap to arrive there. Amy navigated this map flawlessly. I really experienced a true tragedy in my life that lead up to my divorce. I was blindsided, and felt as though the rug was pulled out from under me. I was an emotional wreck, knowing that I had Amy advocating for me brought me some peace of mind, and a strong sense of relief. Here I am today, a divorced woman, something that I thought was unattainable. While I am thrilled that I am divorced, part of me was sad today that I wouldn’t be communicating with Amy anymore. Perhaps this sounds odd, but I was able to be open and honest with her, and this has been a hard part of my healing journey. It’s been hard feeling like I could not be open with anyone about my situation and how it made me feel. Amy validated how I felt, and that meant a lot to me. When I look back on this painful time in my life, I will always genuinely be grateful to Amy and her assistant Jennifer. Thankful for their wisdom, and that they treated me with kindness. It was always evident to me that they were dedicated to my case and to my cause. I still have a long road ahead of me as far as my healing journey goes. Amy helped me to feel farther along in that journey then I ever have. Thank you Amy, for allowing me to step into this new stage of life. If it was not for you, and all your hard work, I would never be free to fall in love again, and that’s the greatest gift that there is. Thanks to you I am more free today then I have ever been. Free to put myself out there, free to meet new people, free to swim in the ocean with my clothes on, causing me to be anything but dry.

They only care about the money. Very poor service with Nancy(Secretary). Before they take your case they were friendly but after that they don't answer the calls they said that they going to call you back and never did. PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE!!!!

Michael Wenning is a great attorney, really personable.

    Anything but Dry I have often heard it said that in order to be a lawyer one needs to be stern and have a dry personality. I can honestly say this is the farthest thing from the truth after working with Amy Harris. I tried to represent myself when I initiated a divorce process a few years ago. Due to my lack of legal knowledge, I was unsuccessful. After realizing this was something I could not do on my own, I went in search of a lawyer that would be a good fit for me. I called thirty lawyers before choosing one to work with. All the lawyers I talked with on the phone were not friendly and even worse then that, they had bone dry personalities. Amy Harris was the only lawyer that agreed to talk with me on the phone, when I let her know how difficult it would be to come meet in person, due to child care issues. I knew right away after talking with her that I had found the perfect fit for me. Amy has been an absolute joy to work with and to be around. She is compassionate, organized, and has a stellar sense of humor. Lawyers can get a bad rep. People think they are only in it for the money. While I have only worked with one lawyer in my life thus far I have come to a different conclusion. Lawyers can see the end when we can’t. For that very reason they are able to offer sincere encouragement and support when one feels like all hope is lost. Not only can they see the end, they are the ones who create the roadmap to arrive there. Amy navigated this map flawlessly. I really experienced a true tragedy in my life that lead up to my divorce. I was blindsided, and felt as though the rug was pulled out from under me. I was an emotional wreck, knowing that I had Amy advocating for me brought me some peace of mind, and a strong sense of relief. Here I am today, a divorced woman, something that I thought was unattainable. While I am thrilled that I am divorced, part of me was sad today that I wouldn’t be communicating with Amy anymore. Perhaps this sounds odd, but I was able to be open and honest with her, and this has been a hard part of my healing journey. It’s been hard feeling like I could not be open with anyone about my situation and how it made me feel. Amy validated how I felt, and that meant a lot to me. When I look back on this painful time in my life, I will always genuinely be grateful to Amy and her assistant Jennifer. Thankful for their wisdom, and that they treated me with kindness. It was always evident to me that they were dedicated to my case and to my cause. I still have a long road ahead of me as far as my healing journey goes. Amy helped me to feel farther along in that journey then I ever have. Thank you Amy, for allowing me to step into this new stage of life. If it was not for you, and all your hard work, I would never be free to fall in love again, and that’s the greatest gift that there is. Thanks to you I am more free today then I have ever been. Free to put myself out there, free to meet new people, free to swim in the ocean with my clothes on, causing me to be anything but dry.

    They only care about the money. Very poor service with Nancy(Secretary). Before they take your case they were friendly but after that they don't answer the calls they said that they going to call you back and never did. PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE!!!!

I can't say enough about this man very professional, very caring I sincerely wish I could give him 10 stars.. We all know that a lawyer can charge high fees however you get what you pay for. Mr. Nocks has been nothing but an exceptional lawyer. He leaves no rock unturned and is very good at what he does. If you want a lawyer that is going to do exceptional work, be completely caring -I sometimes think I am his only client, he cares that much. If you want and need a lawyer believe me you won't regret hiring Mr. Nocks. He is also a gentleman in that he treats the layman with respect, walks you through the exact process you will be going through and ensures that he will do his very best to ensure the judge gets the correct situation before a decision is made. I consider him a friend and I thank God he was directed to be my advocate in dealing with the justice system. Mr. Nocks I have told you this in our conversation now I put it in writing if there were more people in this world who could be half the person you are- we would definitely live in a better world. I will be sad when the case is over and hope we can remain in touch God bless you and your family. The Diaz family

I do not know if Richard will appreciate my comparison of him to a central theme in a Bronx Tale but the key word to remember is "accessibility". Knowing Richard is close by all of the time when needed is one my reasons for highly recommending him. There are many qualified attorneys, but none that I know with his level of competence and availability. I used Richard for two post divorce motions and he was always available to discuss any concerns I had with the issues. He represented me and my children with a fighting spirit not found in many attorneys. He is extremely knowledgeable about the law and willing to take the time to share that knowledge with his clients. He is patient to explain the pros and cons of any approach he recommends. He will not squander your money on frivolous claims. He is very conscientious about pursuing paths that will result in positive results and does not chase solutions down rabbit holes just to bill for the time or satisfy someones ego. He commits your money as if it is his own. In the end ,no one can predict the outcome of any case, given it is always subject to the opinions of a single Judge. With Richard you will be given the best path forward for any situation and you will know you were represented by the best person possible who is professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Richard Nocks.

Without hesitation I recommend Richard Nocks. He is an excellent attorney and a good man who came highly recommended to me. I was not disappointed! He guided me through one of the most challenging times of my life with a distinguished level of intelligence and dedication. He made me feel like he was a friend fighting for me!

Richard is an excellent lawyer who represented me. He is very professional and works to secure the best interest of his client at all times. After having consulted with many lawyers prior to meeting Richard, I am glad I selected Richard to handle my case. He successfully concluded my case in a timely manner. Richard came highly recommended and I would certainly recommend him. I wish him success !

Richard is a professional and caring attorney. He takes the time to actually listen to what his clients are saying, what their needs are and devises a strategic plan to make sure they are 100% satisfied. I have no hesitation recommending him to family, friends, or anyone else in need of a great attorney, who also has his clients best interest in mind.

A great law firm to work with. I have worked with them on a few different cases in several different areas of the law, and each and every time they have provided me with the great legal advice. I absolutely recommend Ansell Grimm &Aaron. Every person I have worked with in the firm is wonderfully helpful and just a pleasure to talk to, and they provide top-notch legal advice.

They seem to pick and choose whether they return phone calls. Not sure how they can make that decision without actually talking to someone but perhaps the other partners should know when one discriminates.

I've had two unfortunate situations where I needed legal representation. I sought the their help and was happy that I did. This is a quality group of lawyers. In my opinion, the best in the state. I can never thank them enough.

Not that I've had all that much experience with attorneys; but our first visit with Doug Davie left me knowing we would be well represented. Personable, involved, knowledgeable, understanding...the accolades could go on and on. Recommended without reservation!!

Immediate response and turn around time. Remarkable professionalism with the Ansell firm. I have personally worked with multiple lawyers in this law firm - Mitchell Ansell, Peter Grimm, Donna Maul, Michael Ansell and David Ansell. Whether Real Estate, Wills, Business law, Family law and/or Criminal law - this is the "go to" law firm. I have made dozens of recommendations to friends and colleagues.

Amy is the most unprofessional attorney that I have worked with. Furthermore, after she did not win her case she had her staff use fake email addresses to post negative reviews about my firm. I would strongly advise any potential client in need of legal services to look elsewhere. She comes off as someone that is on your side and when things do not go her way, look out. She forces her team to do unprofessional tasks in order to punish those who do not go along with her demands. She is unstable and an abrasive person.

I highly recommend Cores & Associates for your custody case. All of the staff are kind and courteous. Amy Cores is professional, knows the laws, took the time to explain all the steps of my case, and always made herself available anytime I had questions or needed her support on a matter.

Amy Cores took my alimony case with great professionalism and a very positive attitude. She explained every step of the way and was very sensitive to my needs. I highly recommend Cores & Associates.

Amy proved to be a very valuable partner in my international child custody case. She demonstrated great depth of expertise, was very responsive, always provided "on point" advice, and was able to connect me with the right attorney in another state, when the need arose. She played an important role in the successful resolution of my issue, and I highly recommend her.

They've been great to work with, would recommend to anyone facing a difficult family law issue.
