This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Strong Advocacy and Peace of Mind

When I first began the divorce process, it felt like a David versus Goliath situation with me being David in this case. My ex-wife works with attorneys on a daily basis and had her previous divorce attorneys on speed dial (one of the first red flags I chose to ignore before getting married). I had on...ly lived in New Jersey for four years and had not needed to establish any kind of attorney relationships…I thought. It was only by a stroke of pure networking luck that I was referred to MELD Law. From the first conversation that I had with Steph(anie) Lomurro, my stress level dropped immediately, and my peace of mind was restored. I cannot express how thankful I am for her counsel and guidance throughout the entire divorce process. My options were always made very clear and I felt that I had a strong advocate in my corner. I am absolutely and completely satisfied with the final outcome and I appreciate the speed with which Steph and Nikki got things wrapped up, despite the massive backlog in the NJ court system. My only regret is that I will not get to continue working with them—they truly felt more like friends than attorneys. I would highly recommend MELD Law, Steph, and Nikki without hesitation.

Top notch firm

To say that Stephanie went above and beyond is an understatement. She made this process so much easier than I could have anticipated. I will be forever grateful for her drive and expertise!

Highly Recommend - Straightforward and speedy!

We worked with Steph to aid us in the adoption of our daughter. We are same sex (married) and by law needed to adopt our children conceived via IVF - a very annoying legality to say the least. She took a frustrating situation and made it quick and straightforward. Highly recommend her.

Excellent, professional representation

I worked with Stephanie on my divorce negotiation which involved a child, complex finances and assets, and international/cultural differences. Addtionally the opposing attorney was antagonistic, litigious and unreasonable in their approach. Stephanie remained calm, firm and focused through the entir...e process - very good at understanding the situation, talking through strategy, and applying the law to ensure a satisfactory outcome .
