Posted by Cheryl | July 17, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Steady, ethical and effective

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank the staff and Kristi at this law office. There are many busy beavers at work to help this wonderful attorney get his job done. While divorce is never pleasant, Jeff took a tough stance as my true advocate and legal counsel in this most difficult and ...trying time. He never charged me, was always diligent and helped navigate and obtain what was rightfully mine. He put a stop to my being victimized by my ex-husband and played hard ball as necessary. Jeff is both very detail oriented and an ethical man. I also found Jeff to be very steady and compassionate. I certainly had and still have my ups and downs (still trying to settle this case) but, Jeff manages to keep on track and moves progressively to get the job done. I felt as if I was in an impossible situation at times and Jeff with his focused and capable skills saw me through with the desired results! Thank you Jeff!

After a biking accident in Sept of 2013 I asked Attorney Ginzberg is he would represent me after seeing his profile in Connecticut Magazine as a top lawyer. I am a 57 year old female and suffered an injury as a result of a motorist failing to yield to clear hand signals. Attorney Ginzberg has a no n...onsense approach, thorough and I was impressed with the level of detail he retained regarding my case. He reached out via e-mail / phone calls extending concern and often requested updates pertinent to my case. In fact, Attorney Ginzberg initiated 90% of the communication having never felt forgotten or ignored. Additionally, Attorney Ginzberg listens intently but also informs you in a no nonsense way when his questions are not answered in a way that is helpful to your case. He is not interested in emotional or speculative responses but quickly steers conversation back to case details - so he can professionally represent you and work on the mutual goal of a satisfactory settlement. I was satisfied with the way I was treated, my settlement and would hire him again.

Atty J. Ginzberg: Intelligent Experience Revokes Prenup

Attorney Jeffrey D. Ginzberg's focused strategy and legal expertise facilitated the revocation of my prenup. Hard-working, with moral standards and integrity; I felt confident in his guidance under the most difficult of circumstances. Personable, yet professional, he handled my Divorce case with sen...sitivity and understanding. Jeff's Law Office is staffed with an exceptional support team. The Divorce process & the court system can be intimidating, I felt confident. prepared, and exceptionally well represented with Attorney Jeffrey Ginzberg.

An exceptional, professional attorney.

Jeff was wonderful helping me through a very complicated divorce. He put in long hours and was very caring every step of the way. I was married only two years, which made the divorce difficult. Jeff worked very hard to get me the best settlement, in a very timely manner. He kept me informed dur...ing each step until the very end. He is extremely knowledgable, supportive, and I felt comfortable and confidant in his expertise throughout the entire process. I would recommend Jeff to anyone who needs a great lawyer.

Posted by Susan Verlaque | December 26, 2013 | Divorce & Separation

An exceptional lawyer, an outstanding professional and a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Jeffrey Ginzberg.

I would highly recommend Jeffrey Ginzberg, especially to anyone who is aware they will be challenged in their divorce with complex child custody and support issues. From the onset, Jeff and I discussed what my wishes were, what was most important to me and helped me understand the divorce process in... a clear and concise manner. Throughout the proceedings he kept my priorities in mind and strategized ways to attain the best outcome for my children and myself. When all was said and done, I had received an agreement very close to what our original goals were including many aspects that I believe might not have been included, if Jeff had not been my attorney. Jeffrey Ginzberg’s attention to detail and ability to think outside of the box resulted in a favorable outcome in my divorce. In addition to his legal proficiency and ability to communicate clearly and efficiently, Jeff understands the emotional and psychological factors that came into play during a divorce. It was obvious to me that he had taken time to calculate these factors and that his advice and treatment of the issues that arose was a function of this understanding. His combination of legal expertise, loyalty, understanding of the underlying issues and capacity to stay focused, even when things got complicated and messy, allow Jeffrey Ginzberg to stand out as an exceptional divorce lawyer and true professional.
