Review of services provided by Attorney J. Ginzberg

I am extremely pleased with the services provided by Attorney J. Ginzberg. I came to him after almost two years into a divorce case that was not going anywhere. My prior attorney proved to be ineffective, uncaring, and often unreachable. Shortly after taking over, Attorney Ginzberg earned my trust. H...e conveyed competence, and clearly showed a sense of urgency by his proactiveness. He prepared a thoughtful plan of action, formulating various arguments in support of my case. Unlike his predecessor, Attorney Ginzberg was responsive, forthcoming, and consistently followed through on commitments. He took the lead in this case, stayed on top of developments, and had no reservations in challenging the opposing party. This concerted effort over a short six-month period resulted in Attorney Ginzberg settling my case on very equitable terms. I highly recommend Attorney J. Ginzberg to anyone seeking legal help. When I first met him and expressed disappointment with prior counsel, he readily asserted to me that I had come to the right place. I certainly did.

Divorce Attorney

Attorney Ginzberg is exactly what you need for an attorney when you’re going through a divorce. He was empathetic, very much to the point and got everything done quickly. I went through to other attorneys before him that took my money and got nothing done. For this, I highly recommend Jeffrey Ginzber...g.

Review for Jeffrey Ginzberg

I recently went through a somewhat difficult divorce and Attorney Jeffrey Ginzberg represented me. I can not express how grateful I am to have found Atty. Ginzberg, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who is in need of a family/divorce attorney. Atty. Ginzberg was very compassionate ...and he fought to get me the best possible outcome in my case. He truly went above and beyond to help me throughout my entire divorce process, and with post-divorce follow ups. He was extremely honest and reliable, and an overall outstanding attorney. There is nobody else I would rather have representing me if I was ever in need of hiring an attorney again in the future.

excellent attorney to assist with a divorce

In the chaos and sea of emotions that divorce can bring Attorney Ginzberg is a calm, reasonable voice. Jeff Ginzberg recently helped me through a difficult and complicated divorce. He was always attentive and understood that maintaining a safe consistent environment for the children was my priority.... Attorney Ginzberg returned calls and emails in a timely manner, was extremely knowledgeable and I could tell from our many conversations was not only a great lawyer but a good person as well. Divorce is not a situation that one wants to find themselves in, but Attorney Ginzberg made a painful situation manageable. If you find yourself with similar life changing events, you can be assured that Attorney Ginzberg can help.

Effective and kind in our uncontested divorce proceedings

I hope I never need a divorce attorney again :) but if I did, Jeff would be my guy. He's a compassionate person with deep expertise. You'll be in good hands if you work with him. I was appreciative that he never tried to make my uncontested, amicable case more complicated than it needed to be, bu...t he made sure we understood at every stage what our rights were and what we were giving up if we waived them. (Kids make a CT divorce somewhat complicated no matter what.) He collaborated with me in creating unique custody and financial agreements my now former spouse and I are both happy with, that are as fair as any of us could make them. And with the former spouse & I both being absentminded professors, we were also glad Jeff and his partner Kristi kept the ball rolling when we kept dropping it. They made sure we reached our goal of being divorced before the end of the year, which means our tax savings will cover much of the cost of the divorce. Thank you, Jeff and Kristi, we're grateful for your help in moving forward gracefully and with dignity to the next chapter of our lives.
