Excellent Attorney

I hired Samantha to help me with a consent Order, I explained to her there was a timeline to meet and she worked diligently to complete my matter. Samantha and her team were quick to answer calls and emails. Trish in billing is also a valued asset to the firm. I would definitely recommend Samantha a...nd this Law Firm.

Great Assistance with Alimony Situation

Not being savvy in NJ alimony laws, I found Samantha extremely helpful. I felt very confident in her knowledge and advice. In my situation, requests to enter into an agreement incorrect under NJ law were presented to me. She guided me on how to proceed and offered me the legally correct information ...to communicate both knowledgeably and skillfully with my former spouse. Had I not seeked assistance from Samantha and the firm, I would have likely agreed to an unfair solution. I am extremely grateful to Samantha. I always felt I was in very good, honest and caring hands at a difficult time.

Great attorney

Samantha did her best to resolve a case involving dealing with very difficult people on the defendant’s side, who were doing everything possible to stall the case by any means necessary. While attorneys on both sides are supposed to work to resolve the problem, this wasn’t the case. Samantha has t...o do all the work by herself while dealing with terrible people on the defender’s side. She is highly astute, hardworking lawyer at the rise of her carrier and eventually will be running the company she works for now or her own firm. I only regret that the firm she was working for(even though they warned me that annulment would be much harder to achieve than regular divorce) did not push harder to explain to me that it will cost me x3 - x6 times more if I pursued that option, which I did, and lost a lot of money, just to get a regular divorce at the end anyway because the costs kept rising and I said “enough” when I paid over $30,000 and the case was far from resolved... If I knew that from the very beginning, I would never pursue the annulment scenario and would’ve saved a ton of money by doing simple divorce. But it was in no way Samantha’s fault as “the client is always right” and I did say that I wanted annulment from the very beginning... Again, my only regret is that I wish the firm would try much harder to dissuade me from taking this very expensive route in my case, but since it meant much more money to the firm, I can understand why they did not push hard enough to tell me about much greater costs. Again, it has nothing to do with the high quality work Samantha did during the case, as she is an excellent lawyer. And if her superiors at the firm, told her not to push hard against me changing to a simpler divorce case instead of annulment, she had to follow the company’s orders. And I give her overall work an excellent rating, as she was kind, professional, supportive, cared about the best outcome of the case for me and accomplished that very best outcome. A+ for Samantha.

How is she not a partner yet

Sam is knowledgeable and friendly, she went out of her way to accommodate my schedule and had answers to all my questions. A consummate professional, I don't know how she isn't junior partner already.

Real Estate Closing

From the moment the contract for sale was signed, Ms. Boos was on top of everything. I was expecting to deal with one of her paralegals throughout the process, but Ms. Boos insisted on handling most of the client communications herself. She kept me informed from start to finish and handled every deta...il with professionalism and sound business judgement. I provided documentation and answered her few questions and the next thing I knew, we were scheduled for closing! We showed up at the closing and she was able to move right through the entire process with no issues whatsoever! She's competent, confident, knowledgeable, friendly and treated me like I was her only client. I would highly recommend Ms. Boos for any legal matters and will continue to use her services in the future!
