Dori-Ellen S. Feltman

Going through a divorce & custody process, I was fortunate to be referred to Attorney Dori-Ellen S. Feltman. During my initial consultation, Dori-Ellen was a good listener, and she took the time to learn about my circumstance. Her position was rational, not overpromising, and made a lot of sense. I a...lso assessed two additional highly reputable attorneys in Fairfield County, CT; ultimately Dori-Ellen was the right choice. Dori-Ellen is intelligent, experienced, and highly assertive. She focused on my priorities, formulated a good strategy, and demonstrated sound judgement. She coached me throughout the entire process and her guidance put me in the best position for the outcome I wanted. Ilene (Dori-Ellen’s paralegal) was also a pleasure to work with.

I engaged Dori-Ellen Feltman in 2022 to represent me in my divorce. Ms. Feltman had come highly recommended to me by a friend for whom Ms. Feltman was actually her husband’s attorney; she had been impressed with Ms. Feltman’s skills and many strengths as a legal representative and client advocate. ... I had an excellent experience with the astute and compassionate guidance that Ms. Feltman provided me as I looked to end my marriage of 34 years. Ms. Feltman was practical, efficient, and fair. She was clear in her strategy, transparent in her communication, able to educate and support me in this process, which can be so unmooring and painful.

She is smart, caring, understands the psychology of the given players, and was a strong and effective advocate for my case. We were able to conclude this matter in a relatively short period of time, and all within the stated budget. I would not hesitate to recommend Dori-Ellen Feltman for divorce representation.
