Richard F Iglar

Rick supported me through a complex family law case and helped secure exactly the outcome I was hoping for. His deep expertise, sound judgment, and steady guidance made all the difference, and our strong working relationship gave me confidence every step of the way. I would highly recommend Rick to a...nyone seeking skilled, reliable representation in any family law matter.

Richard Iglar (partner at Skoloff & Wolfe) recently represented me in a 12-month divorce case in north central New Jersey that centered on the equitable distribution of a substantial marital estate. Rick's performance was superlative and I strongly endorse him. Rick topped my initial shortlist of... highly qualified candidates. The preparation of the shortlist considered depth divorce experience, quality of professional training, and relevant credentials including certifications. Since my case had the potential to be financially complicated, selecting an attorney with the financial acumen to advocate my position was of paramount importance. An interview solidified my decision to hire Rick as my attorney. Rick explained the divorce process and realistically set my expectations. He and his support staff readily absorbed the substantial financial details of the case and together we agreed on a scenario that would represent a fair and practical distribution of assets. Despite a potential straightforward path to resolution of the case, my former spouse pressed for unreasonable demands and pursued a range of malicious acts intended to punish me. My former spouse's attorney failed to provide a check on this behavior. To my benefit, Rick artfully countered the other side's absurd positions, nefarious acts, and delay tactics. With this effort the case was fairly settled without a costly and lengthy trial. Throughout the process I felt that Rick was a powerful advocate for my interests. He was excellent at understanding my concerns and staying focused on the most important financial considerations. I was always consulted on key decisions and he was careful to make me aware of alternatives and potential risks. Rick's deep experience and familiarity with the court was an asset. He was truly outstanding in the negotiation of the settlement, which thwarted all of my former spouse's irrational claims and exactly matched the ideal outcome that Rick and I had crafted at the beginning of the case.

Obviously divorce related cases are emotionally charged. Rick is a consummate professional. He is a seasoned attorney with 30-year experience. He somehow managed to keep my emotions in check in his own uncanny way and helped settle the case quickly without going through costly full-blown plenary he...arings. I had interviewed more than a dozen top attorneys before picking Rick. I heard and saw that Rick cares about his clients deeply and is as knowledgeable about divorce laws as it gets. I was in good hands. It carries a lot of weight when your attorney is respected by the court as well as the attorneys on the other side and that was my experience with him. He has earned his reputation. Being a highly sought-after attorney and a father himself, he worked tirelessly and replied to my emails at all times. His reasoning and logic are nothing short of amazing (I think I am qualified to make such comments given my rigorous engineering and quantitative trading background). Even the Judge recognized that and thanked him for organizing things so well that he can see the issues easily and clearly. Simply put, he has a burning desire to win for his clients within reason. He will give his fair outsider views so as to set expectations right instead of saying things to reinforce your own wishful thinking.

Mr. Iglar is a very capable matrimonial attorney, who is experienced in all phases of family law, and is a highly skilled negotiator and litigator. He has a good understanding of complex business and personal situations, and a thorough knowledge of the law. He analyzed and addressed the issues in a... pragmatic manner, and always took the high road. He handled settlement negotiations well. In a situation where the case did not settle and went to trial, he presented my case in a clear and persuasive manner, made sound legal arguments, was well-prepared, and I believe he was very effective at trial.

Rick guided me through the divorce process and consistently made himself available to speak when I needed his consult. He offered me cost effective solutions and was always a voice of reason. During this adversarial process, I always felt I was represented by superior counsel. I would highly recommen...d Rick as a divorce attorney.
