My positive experience being retained by Jeffrey Soilson.

I used Jeffrey Soilson to represent me in divorce settlement. I was in a sensitive circumstance as my former wife was suing from Massachusetts, (I live in Philadelphia) and was represented by an attorney with a reputation for being very aggressive and a self interest in prolonging potentially lucrat...ive cases. Jeff was practical, had worked with the opposing firm prior, provided excellent counsel. HIs charges were fair (a faction of what my wife's counsel charged, and he did the vast majority of the work).

Professional, Experienced, Knowledgeable & Reliable

Attorney Soilson was recommended to me by a colleague who recently got divorced. Here's the interesting part; Jeff represented my colleague's ex-wife. He actually recommended him over his own attorney! I worked with Jeff from start to finish on my divorce which lasted 20+ months from the initial fili...ng through discovery through temporary orders and then finally the divorce. Through it all, Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and responsive while also providing me with a great insight, feedback and strategic advice. When situations called for bringing in expertise with respect to financial/tax analysis, Jeff rolled out an impressive rolodex of expert consultants who were laser sharp in their own craft. While Jeff is in no way inexpensive, I will say three things: First, you get what you pay for and Jeff is worth his going rate. His experience and insight was invaluable. Second, Jeff understands that legal services are expensive, and is very mindful of his billable time and ensures it is used effectively. He would often tell me how I could save money by organizing and collecting documents myself rather than having he or his firm do the work. Lastly, I will just say this - Jeff's hourly rate was about the same as the attorney my ex used who was a partner in an enormous law firm, yet when we finally settled, his overall fees were HALF of the fees my ex paid. I wholeheartedly recommend Jeff.

Superb Legal Strategist

Jeff Soilson represented me during the most difficult time in my life—a brutally contested divorce that involved every cliché imaginable when one hears of “nightmare divorce” cases. When I was referred to Jeff, I was devastated, emotionally-drained, and deeply concerned about the welfare of my... child and how we would both weather the litigation to come. Jeff’s ability to provide strategic guidance, emotional support, and clear, level-headed thinking that always put my child and my future at the center of every decision was superb. He worked with me collaboratively, compassionately and demonstrated the utmost professionalism and skill. Throughout the entire process, Jeff was always available, reassuring, and flexible. The successful outcome of my divorce and the lessons learned during the process paved the way to a future I could not have previously imagined. He is a gem.

Attorney Jeff Soilson is the BEST

I was referred to Atty. Soilson by friends when my divorce was already underway with another attorney who had marginalized my case, treated me with total disregard and gave me poor advice. He spent over an hour on the phone with me as I sobbed uncontrollably in a parking lot. In that time, he had a b...etter grasp of my case and my priorities than my other lawyer had in over six months. Mr. Soilson was kind, knowledgeable, wise, considerate, honest, honorable, and supportive. The divorce was nasty and contested; the opposing counsel (& client) consistently took the 'low road'. Mr. Soilson was my champion from beginning to end. He never waivered and the first impression I had never of him never changed. He is a fine lawyer and you will be in the best of hands. He is a credit to his firm and I will always be grateful to him.

Excellent Honest Straightforward Attorney

I have worked with Jeff now for a couple of years and on numerous projects. He is an excellent attorney with tremendous resources available to him. Jeff is open and honest about how to approach things, and his approach is a collaborative one to try and work effectively with the opposing side to rea...ch an amicable agreement. He can be tough when he needs to be, but is very effective at establishing relationships and credibility early on in the process, to move things along more quickly. I highly recommend Jeff as an attorney.
