Sotiria Makrogiannis

I had already been divorced for several years when I contacted Sotiria. My daughter, an LGBT teen, was suffering abuse at the hands of her stepfather, my ex-wife's husband. My ex-wife refused to allow my daughter to live with me, something my daughter requested when the abuse became too much to bear.... Sotiria was dedicated and compassionate towards my goals, but she was also frank and honest as to what we could and could not do to change this situation. Ultimately, however, her persistence and commitment to excellence paid off, and my daughter is now living with me, happy and healthy (both mentally and physically). I could not have done this without Sotiria's help. She literally saved my daughter's life. If you live in Hudson County and need help with divorce, child support, or child custody, Sotiria is the lawyer you should turn to.

Divorce is by far one of the most challenging experiences I’ve ever endured; and I’ve gone through a lot of life! It is traumatic, gut wrenching, painful and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. Imagine taking the life you’ve once known to be a great one, white picket fence and all, and hav...ing it come crashing down before your eyes. The one you once loved the most becomes the one you can not even be in the same room with. Your children enter into a tug of war and find a way to blame the circumstances on themselves!! It’s very trying! Choosing to have the right team by your side is vital during this painful time! My experience with Sotiria Makrogiannis, Esq. and the entire team at Bielan, Miklos & Makrogiannis far exceeded my expectations!! It’s no wonder Sotiria has been recently named the 126th Hudson County Bar Association, President (the 8th woman to lead the HCBA since 1877.) Everyone, I mean Everyone in the office is kind, courteous, knowledgeable and beyond professional!! There are some powerful women within the firm that both handle your case with care and pack a powerful punch. It was very difficult to manage all of the work and detail it took to protect myself and my children in the process and fight for what was right. Throughout the process, I felt like I had empowerment partners to push me through the process along the way. I am forever grateful for the value I received from Bielan, Miklos & Makrogiannis! Working with Sotiria was both a pleasure and an inspiration!!

My gratitude and appreciation towards Sotiria Makrogiannis will be something that will accompany for the rest of my life. Sotiria is not only an experienced attorney but most importantly she is ethical, confident, dynamic, honest, and supportive. She is what I call a "Super Lawyer". She was alwa...ys available and quickly replied to my emails, supporting me in every way. Thank you for supporting me through this difficult time and thank you for giving me the best results for my children and myself. You have made a difference in our lives! Thank you!

Sotiria will provide you with honest guidance through whatever matters you require legal assistance in. I instantaneously trusted her perspectives when advising me on the most advantageous legal avenues to pursue. Sotiria is dedicated, realistic, empathetic and honest in the manner she provides suppo...rt throughout legal proceedings and beyond!!!!!
