I hired David Bliven to handle both my child custody and child support cases. It was important for me during this stressful process to hire someone who understood my needs and would ultimately, help me achieve the results I wanted. David and his assistant, Jeanette, are amazing! Patient listening to my questions and concerns, emails answered promptly, always pleasant and very thorough communication. Most of all, I liked that he was straight forward with the process, transparent with his cost/fees and never game me any false expectations. Hiring David was the best decision ever!

My experience with David Bliven was excellent. My attorney, David Bliven gave my case all the time and attention that was needed. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through David Bliven :)

Had a great experience with Mr. Bliven and his staff. We were trying to get a visitation order for my mother-in-law to be able to see her grandaughter who was placed through ACS with her other grandmother. Before hiring Mr. Bliven, we spent years of going nowhere through the system and getting extremely frustrated. Mr. Bliven took on the process of coordinating and communicating with the multiple lawyers on the case representing the child, the grandmother, the mother, the father, and ACS. He kept us informed every step of the way and we were all able to come to an agreement we were all satisfied with. We are very happy that we hired him and highly recommend his services!

Mr Bliven and his office staff were very professional and helpful in my divorce case. Mr. Bliven is committed well organized and prepared . I like how he set up his game plan once he had all the information he needed. You always must remember what you pay for is what you get in quality representation. I was satisfied with my settlement. I would definitely recommend this law firm.

From the first appointment until the end, Mr. Bliven provided not only sound advice, but kept me informed through the entire process. He always provided options in resolution, clarity on the legal process, and gave suggestions in those moments where I found myself overwhelmed. In addition, he was willing to work with me in payment options when my financial circumstances changed. It's never a good idea to traverse divorce alone and uninformed. I highly recommend Mr. Bliven!

The sheriff came to serve us at 9PM for family court. It was a restless night for all of us. I started googling at 6AM the next day, as you can imagine, all the lawyer’s officers are closed even the ones that states they are open 24/7. Most of the lawyer offices in my area open at 9AM, I noted that the Law Office of Nick M. Frisco open at 8AM. I held back until 8:02AM, it rings and rings and bang, Fatima, the paralegal answer. I explained we needed advice and counsel to navigate thru the court’s virtual world with this return of process emergency summons. Within, 20 minutes, Fatima put us in contact with Nick Frisco. We explained the situations and the expected outcome we were asking to get. He told us to provide a summary, get school records, medical records, letters from the teacher, etc. and accepted our case. Nick explained that we need to leave our emotion out, only speak when spoke to and maintenance a positive attitude. The hearing was the next day. During the hearing, Nick discussed the facts and merits of the case and the best interest of the children. The children mother kept changing her story about our arrangements. The judge reminded the children mothers about lying under oath. Sorry for the long write-up but I wanted to explain our situations, the quick turn around and the sense of urgency. I would strongly recommend the Law Office of Nick M Frisco for family court. In order has been issues so the children mothers will need to follow the courts order. Nick and Fatima are a great team and may a big difference on the outcome of our court.

One of the best attorneys there is. He fights very hard for his clients he is an excellent attorney. I know first hand because he was my attorney.

The law firm of Nick Frisco Esq. really understand divorce law within NYS Mr. Frisco was very professional, on point with getting you the information you need to make the right decisions. Divorce is a very tiring and personal situation, but Mr. Frisco really fights for your rights, always making sure you understand what those rights are. I would recommended his services highly. Really knows his stuff.!

Mr.Frisco is one of the best attorney I have had he explained everything to me and handle my case in a professional matter even though my child’s father was complicated and hard to deal with he thought about my child best interest thank you so much and I recommend him 1000000% keep up the great work

Worst divorce lawyer. Paid $2,000 for an uncontested divorce and he did not do anything. Incapable of getting the other party served and a lot of miscommunication between Fatima (his assistant), and him. Basically, he charged $2,000 (upfront) and did not finish his job.

Stick with a sole practitioner for better results. Once you pay your retainer you’re handed off to another attorney that’s an employee of the King Law Firm. Why not just deal with one quality attorney that’s not sacrificing quality over quantity. There’s enough quality Family Law attorneys in Bronx county.

I gave this firm 5 star because from the minute that I walked in I was given a warm and friendly welcome. Specially Arisleyxy, she was very professional and very detailed with my case. She updated me in every step. I also love the fact that there were no hidden fees and I received detailed receipt for my services. My case was finalize in a timely manner just as they explained from the beginning. I trust The King Law and would highly recommended.

It was rocky at first, but just trust the process. My attorney was graceful and strong in her approach. I am very much grateful. ????

Very professional and helpful given my situation. Everything was completed in a timely fashion with communication that exceeded my expectations. I would utilize their services again if needed.

Ms. Contreras was very helpful and answered my questions, when I asked them although confuse on the process on the information given. She explained it to me and again answer my questions in a timely manner. When my situation was dire she expedited my paper work though the process once I show proof and now it’s in the hands of the judge waiting to sign the paperwork. At least I can get some type of resolution to my situation soon . Thank you again Ms.Contreras

I was recommended to Seth by a family friend. I have worked with him on two cases divorce as well as an order for a violation of a custody agreement. Both times he kept me informed as to the changes in my case, worked diligently on making any changes that the court requested and was always on time when appearing on my behalf.

Seth is an amazing, understand and patient attorney. I genuinely recommend him to anyone with custody problems. Because of Seth, I have my sole custody, he fought for me to the very end. He will speak to you at anytime and will give genuine advice.

Hey, I used Seth D . Schraier back in 2016 for vistations rights, and partial customy of my little girl. He told me what he can do for me, he was honest, and told me what to expect. He returned text messages ,phone calls, and emails. He knows all about family court, I will recommended anybody who has issues not seeing their kids or family doestic cases, he is great attorney.

Knowledgeable but lazy and unmotivated with a lack of EMPATHY for clients. Treated my custody case as something to do when bored, while i was fighting tooth and nail for my daughters safety and wellbeing. As a father of a new born you would think he could somewhat understand another fathers situation and put himself in a clients shoes. Nope. Not one call was recieved to update me on my case. Not one call was recieved to check on things. When my court dates came around he couldnt answer one question about my case when asked by the judge...i had to answer. Does he know what his line of work, i believe so. Does he care to truly help others, the answer is no. He just wants to collect his 3k retainer.

3+ years after using him. Bad custody agreement that is WORSE than the original he was to fix. Abandoned paid contract for a support agreement & lied about it being settled for months. His incompetence & lies still cause serious problems & costs. Result: damage to child & me. High costs to fix if it can be. Research lawyers thoroughly. A bad choice can be devastating. Look at ratings on this & other sites. Interview 3+ references. Have any doubts, or can’t get references - go away! Do not be pressured or confused. SEE REPLY: 1. He violated a contract! Is he a lawyer? 2. So what if it is 3 years? Now can see the damage & cost to me & my child. 3. Is he suggesting he is sorry for what I am going through? Laughable. You sometimes get scammed, but you move on & warn others! Too bad child hurt. 4. I am not selfless but warning others before they are abused. 5. No need to discuss issues. Is he paying for the damage? He already stole the money! 7 - Avoid him & his abuse. SUMMARY: 1st: Custody agreement: Violations of visitation, etc. led to need for a new one. 2nd: Support agreement: Lower support due to income. Many violations by Ex. I was given bad advice to unilaterally lower support. Merited, but court must do it. 1 - ABANDONED A PAID CONTRACT: Ignored 20+ emails to get support agreement. Lied 2+ times - it is coming “next week or Monday". Stopped responding to all emails & calls! Result: huge costs to fix problem. * Not sure he had an agreement or lied that he did & planned to abandon case. He had a letter from opposing lawyer offering to lower the support! 2 - DISHONEST FEES: Bid low to get case. Reliably told he bid too low for required work. Result: Cut corners. Now huge costs to fix scam. * Chose on reviews. I suggest you check lawyer's old clients. Look at ratings on this & other sites. Ask to interview several references w/ good & bad reviews. If you have any doubts about a lawyer, find another! Do not decide under pressure or confusion. 3 –UNPROFESSIONAL & SLOW. Result: Bad custody agreement (he skipped out on support agreement.) * Other lawyer had to send Schraier a note requesting promised work after he didn't respond! * Incomplete/no answers to many questions. * I requested guidance prior to court. He waited to the last minute and talks to you outside the court room - if he is on time! You are unprepared. He's not fully prepared for court. 4 – TERRIBLE CUSTODY AGREEMENT THAT HE PRESSURED ME TO TAKE: Ex violated most of old agreement. He didn't fix compliance in new agreement or ask court to protect child. Result: A WORSE custody agreement with less enforcement & even more violations. * Support & Custody agreement deals got worse due to delays & a good opposing strategy. * OTHER lawyer drafted a bad custody agreement. He negotiated from HER draft! Did not propose changes unless I told him! * It is likely his negligence led opposition to propose a bad agreement at the last minute - just prior to court. He did not object to the trick! Pressured me to sign! I should not have. My fault. * Weak agreement led to Parental Alienation. (That means that the child is turned against you by threat, fear, manipulation, and slandering the other parent. Child can get false memories, be afraid of you, etc. Symptoms can be loss of confidence, self-esteem, etc.) * He did not address alienation, but dismissed it as a past, uncorrectable issue. The word "Parental Alienation" was not used but he said he got it. He still did nothing despite available remedies. Schreier’s work was negligent and he was dishonest. He secured a WORSE agreement that hurt me and my child. It has and still costs more money. He abandoned the custody agreement - a PAID contract! I suggest you research potential lawyers thoroughly. It is important. A bad choice can be devastating. Look at ratings on this & other sites. Ask to interview 3+ references from reviews that are good & bad. If any doubts about a lawyer, or cannot get references, find another! Do not chose under pressure or confusion.

Is he paying for the damage? He already stole the money! 7 - Avoid him & his abuse. SUMMARY: 1st: Custody agreement: Violations of visitation, etc. led to need for a new one. 2nd: Support agreement: Lower support due to income. Many violations by Ex. I was given bad advice to unilaterally lower support. Merited, but court must do it. 1 - ABANDONED A PAID CONTRACT: Ignored 20+ emails to get support agreement. Lied 2+ times - it is coming “next week or Monday". Stopped responding to all emails & calls! Result: huge costs to fix problem. * Not sure he had an agreement or lied that he did & planned to abandon case. He had a letter from opposing lawyer offering to lower the support! 2 - DISHONEST FEES: Bid low to get case. Reliably told he bid too low for required work. Result: Cut corners. Now huge costs to fix scam. * Chose on reviews. I suggest you check lawyer's old clients. Look at ratings on this & other sites. Ask to interview several references w/ good & bad reviews. If you have any doubts about a lawyer, find another! Do not decide under pressure or confusion. 3 –UNPROFESSIONAL & SLOW. Result: Bad custody agreement (he skipped out on support agreement.) * Other lawyer had to send Schraier a note requesting promised work after he didn't respond! * Incomplete/no answers to many questions. * I requested guidance prior to court. He waited to the last minute and talks to you outside the court room - if he is on time! You are unprepared. He's not fully prepared for court. 4 – TERRIBLE CUSTODY AGREEMENT THAT HE PRESSURED ME TO TAKE: Ex violated most of old agreement. He didn't fix compliance in new agreement or ask court to protect child. Result: A WORSE custody agreement with less enforcement & even more violations. * Support & Custody agreement deals got worse due to delays & a good opposing strategy. * OTHER lawyer drafted a bad custody agreement. He negotiated from HER draft! Did not propose changes unless I told him! * It is likely his negligence led opposition to propose a bad agreement at the last minute - just prior to court. He did not object to the trick! Pressured me to sign! I should not have. My fault. * Weak agreement led to Parental Alienation. (That means that the child is turned against you by threat, fear, manipulation, and slandering the other parent. Child can get false memories, be afraid of you, etc. Symptoms can be loss of confidence, self-esteem, etc.) * He did not address alienation, but dismissed it as a past, uncorrectable issue. The word "Parental Alienation" was not used but he said he got it. He still did nothing despite available remedies. Schreier’s work was negligent and he was dishonest. He secured a WORSE agreement that hurt me and my child. It has and still costs more money. He abandoned the custody agreement - a PAID contract! I suggest you research potential lawyers thoroughly. It is important. A bad choice can be devastating. Look at ratings on this & other sites. Ask to interview 3+ references from reviews that are good & bad. If any doubts about a lawyer, or cannot get references, find another! Do not chose under pressure or confusion.

Ross & Asmar represented me in a fairly contentious divorce proceeding. His professionalism and demeanor were simply unassailable. He guided me to what was reasonable and prudent. He did what was clearly in my best interest and with real time, clear communication. I would recommend his services without hesitation.

Ross and Asmar provided the best representation when I needed a deportation attorney. We were able to get a same sex marriage visa and remain in this country. If not for our immigration lawyer, my husband could have been deported and severely punished where gay is a crime. We owe our free lives to our skilled and kind attorney.

When I found the online ad for Ross and Asmar I knew at that moment this was the attorney I needed. I was right. He was able to secure money immediately for support for my children while the divorce settlement was being negotiated. When All was said and done I was very pleased with the settlement... I would highly recommend Ross and Asmar to anyone going through a divorce..

Make me feel like family

Good guy that Steve.

Corey was an outstanding advocate and advisor to me throughout the difficult divorce process. He is genuine, empathetic and thoughtful but at the same time direct, confident and thorough. I am so fortunate to have been referred to Corey because he always had my best interests in mind and empowered me to make wise choices for myself.

Never in a million years did I think I would need a divorce attorney. But when I did, I am so glad Corey was the attorney recommended to me by a trusted friend. His empathetic approach to his clients makes an extremely difficult situation bearable. He readily offers sage advice, resources and his extensive experience. He also deftly handles negotiations in a pragmatic and diplomatic way while looking out for the long term interests of his clients. I highly recommend working with him!

Regardless of complexity of the situation, a diverse is always very unpleasant and therefor stressful process. I am so happy I found Corey to help me to work this through. He is attentive and kind, very clear on what the situation is, what options are, what actions required and what is possible outcomes. With clarity and simplicity of the process it is much easier to focus on thew actual matter and make calm and conscious decisions. Corey was all about making this challenging for me time as quick and painless as possible. I can not thank him enough for his professionalism and responsiveness, kindness and attentiveness. I would not wish for another attorney.

Corey understood exactly what my goals were and satisfied them. Although I wanted a quick and simple divorce, COVID interfered. Corey worked through the delays with me and helped me understand what was and was not in my power. When I got heated and emotional, he calmed me down and explained why my quick decision making was not ultimately in my best interest. He is strong, fair, and had my back. Thank you Corey. Mike Mittleman (difficult client)

I hired Corey because, at our initial meeting, I liked his no-nonsense, business-like approach to divorce. The circumstances leading up to divorce are emotional and heartbreaking enough; Corey doesn’t think divorce needs to be more of the same. He kept me focused on the most important elements. He is knowledgeable, thorough, and gets things done. I also really enjoyed working with Corey. We definitely had a few laughs along the way and I still keep up with him.

Michael Fried is an excellent attorney and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help with a family matter. Michel is responsive to emails and phone calls, timely, compassionate, understanding, knows the law and great at explaining, in simple terms, what could otherwise be a complicated process. Michael handled my situation with professionalism and remained level headed throughout the process. Most of all, Michael made me feel comfortable. I can't thank Michael enough for his work.

I hired John Teufel and his associate Adina in the Manhattan office by Grand Central. He's very smart, a great listener and knows how to walk that very fine line between being tough and being compassionate. He respected all of my wishes and not once did I feel belittled like I did with some of the other lawyers I had tried out before. I highly recommend his firm. They are very professional and nice, too, which is so unusual for midtown Manhattan

In a difficult time of life, Jacqueline Newman , Wally Bottger and their associates were tremendous partners. Their guidance, technical skill and ability to navigate the legal system were invaluable. They also consistently handled sensitive, complex matters with professionalism, human compassion and respect for all parties involved; while at the same time being strong advocates of their client. I highly recommend and endorse the professionals I worked with and their firm, Berkman Bottger Newman & Rodd.

They were very responsive, they address all our concerns very quickly. They were extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommended them. Thank You!!

Jacqueline and her staff are the most knowledgeable and professional team in the industry. The level of individualized client service that I received was second to none. Jacqueline’s experience was evidenced in every aspect of our interactions and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a top notch matrimonial attorney.

I am honest and I just want to share my experience. Attorney Steven Bilkis handled my situation and did a fantastic job. He was attentive to taking care of my situation. Because of his experience, which a lot of so-called Attorneys simply do not have, he immediately understood what was happening and quickly took to getting things done that were necessary. No time was wasted. I am so blessed and happy to have had the help and services of Attorney Bilkis. He is honest and he gets right down to business. He's the type of Attorney whom you can really trust, so the best thing to do is keep calm and let Steve Bilkis do what he is great at. Also, because of his experience and intelligent application of his knowledge, you stand your best chance at victory, as he knows the system and how to make things work their best for you.

I hired Stephen Bilkis & Associates to handle unexpected matter. I found Mr. Bilkis to be exceptionally approachable, responsive and attentive. He handled a very delicate situation with the utmost professionalism and was able to keep me calm during intense moments. My adversary even commented on how exceptionally responsive Mr. Bilkis was throughout the ordeal. I was further extremely satisfied with the outcome of my representation. I highly recommend Stephen Bilks and his firm.

Great customer service

There is not a lawyer or firm in NY that can match Steve Bilkis! His commitment to his clients is unparalleled... Choosing a great lawyer is like choosing the best surgeon! I have been in the criminal justice system for 25 years & Steven Bilkis gets it done! I strongly recommend meeting with the Bilkis law firm today for all your legal needs! Michelle Esquenazi, President, Empire Bail Bonds

I just called to make an appointment and the receptionist is RUDE, seemingly for no reason. Instead of forwarding the call to someone who could help answer my questions she aggressively reassured me that she is not a LAWYER and simply the receptionist and can not give advise. Its sad that she doesn't realize she represents a law office so, if she can not answer questions or provide appropriate feedback simply transfer to someone who can.
