Melissa Cohen

I hired Melissa Cohen, Esquire of SeidenFreed LLC to represent me in my divorce, and I'm incredibly grateful I did. From the first consultation, she demonstrated compassion, knowledge, and direct-exactly what I needed during such a difficult and emotionally charged time. She took the time to understa...nd the specifics of my case and clearly explained my rights, options, likely outcomes and always led me in the right direction. Throughout the process, Melissa was responsive to my questions, kept me informed about every development, and fought hard to ensure a fair outcome regarding pet custody, property division, and support. Not only her ability to balance empathy with firm legal strategy that stood out the most. It spoke so much more volume how she is an advocate for domestic violence victims in addition to mental health awareness. She was not just a lawyer but an amazing supporter who made sure I was aware of additional resources to get me through such a traumatic time until the very end. Thanks to her professionalism and dedication, I made it through the process with a strong sense of closure and confidence in the next chapter of my life. I would recommend Melissa Cohen, Esquire without hesitation to anyone going through a divorce-especially if you want someone who truly has your back.

I retained Ms. Cohen regarding a sensitive family matter. She has been nothing but knowledgeable, prompt, and reliable. The dedication she has to her practice is unparalleled. Initially, I was emotional and wavering. Ms. Cohen sensitively and professionally explained the law and decisions (althou...gh difficult) I had to make for the safety of myself and my daughter. She thoroughly explains all possible routes and outcomes. Ms. Cohen has a human touch coupled with a fierce loyalty that is an immeasurable benefit when considering a family law attorney. As I continue my journey through family law, her guidance and representation is nothing short of excellence. I have recommended her and will continue to do so.

I came to Seiden Family Law during one of the most challenging times of my life. I needed a tenacious, highly capable, well-respected attorney with deep knowledge of Union County's family law bench and procedures, and that is exactly what I found in Melissa. Melissa helped resolve my custody dispute ...quickly and in my favor. In addition to being a highly skilled and motivated advocate, I found Melissa to be compassionate and a great communicator as well. Thank you!

Melissa changed my sons (and my) life for the better. I was seeking to relocate over 1000 miles out of state, which is not an easy feat in New Jersey. It was a long, stressful, and tough process. Our case ended up going the mile to trial. Melissa was completely responsive throughout the whole process..., answered every crazy question I had, and eased my worries. Her true skills shined in the courtroom. In the end, we won our case and I was granted the relocation. I honestly couldn’t have asked for better representation, and a better person to emotionally guide me through the process. I would whole heartedly recommend Melissa to any friends and family who were seeking family law representation.
