Worth reaching out to Bari

Was very happy with Bari and staff. They were very courteous and attentive and always provided good measured counsel and had my best interest at heart.

Miracle Worker!

When I got divorced (2+ years ago), I was pressured to agree to the parenting schedule that my ex-wife proposed in order to settle and avoid court. This arrangement was fragmented and left my ex-wife with more time. Before approaching Weinberger, I had spoken with 3 or 4 other lawyers. All of them to...ld me that it's impossible to change the schedule so soon after getting divorced. When I spoke with Jennifer Varga at Weinberger, she worked with me to come up with a strategy to approach the situation. We eventually filed a motion and made the impossible possible. In court, she kept her cool while the adversary did not. Jennifer stuck to the facts and the judged granted us to undergo an evaluation by a Child and Adolescent Psychologist. We eventually got an equal parenting time schedule and were able to settle with a consent order that also put many other tools & arrangements into place to help facilitate several post-divorce issues that came up. Jennifer has a confident demeanor that helps her with negotiations inside & outside court, explains processes thoroughly, pays very close attention to details, follows up quickly, always makes herself available to chat (even when she's out of office!) and is a kind-hearted and caring mother. Jennifer is honest and would always let me know if my expectation were unrealistic. When I got caught up in my own emotions, she kindly roped me back into reality. Thank you Weinberger for being there when I needed you and thank you Jennifer. You are a miracle worker!

Divorce jurisdiction

Bari has been very attentive in working with me, a lawyer in Iowa, and our mutual client. She is very knowledgeable with the laws and applies common sense to the facts as presented. I highly recommend her for those looking for someone to help them and their family in those difficult times associate...d with a family law case.

Bari Zell Weinberger Is The Most Competent Family Lawyer

I was in need of counsel for a family law matter and interviewed many attorneys. Bari Zell Weinberger was the only lawyer who truly listened to me and the particular facts in my case, framed my facts against current case law, and properly set my expectations. This is only half the battle however ...in legal representation. Bari Zell Weinberger zealously represented me, anticipating opposing counsel's next moves and how to counteract them. While every family matter is of a very personal nature, I trusted Bari Zell Weinberger without hesitation in securing the optimal outcome - an outcome that I truly believe only Bari Zell Weinberger. I am a lawyer and while my area of practice is far afield from family law. I have hired many lawyers in my career on behalf of my clients. It is that experience that led me hire Bari Zell Weinberger and led me to best possible outcome.
