FANTASTIC DIVORCE ATTORNEY!!

Was recommended to Angelo by a friend and hired him that day . Well all I can tell you from all the other horror stories I hear about divorce attorneys taking all your money till there's nothing left and then finally settling that does not happen at this firm his goal was to get me divorced as so...on as possible and let me tell you something he did just what he promised ... I was divorced in seven months and I'm the happiest guy you can imagine now .... Angelo thank you for not trying to milk this divorce and take all my money you are a gentleman and I wish you great success in the coming years and please keep up the great work and help other clients like myself that continue to be taken advantage of by a broken system.

Angelo Sarno Super Star

Angelo represented me in a complicated and adversarial divorce matter. His expertise is top notch. His court manner is commanding, persuasive, and effective. He knows the law and the judicial system backwards and forwards. I highly recommend Angelo for your family law matter.

Absolutely THE BEST!!!!!!

After interviewing 9 Attorneys, my best friend from high school, who also won her divorce dispute, recommended that I hire Angelo. I had a very tumultuous marriage which involved numerous criminal, mental and addiction issues. The extremely graphic nature of my case made it that much harder to find ...an attorney who I could trust and feel comfortable with. I was so blessed to have been represented by Angelo Sarno. I may not have chosen the right life partner but I definitely chose the right Attorney to dissolve my marriage and protect my child. My extremely long case just ended last month and the outcome exceeded my every expectation (no easy feat). His well thought out strategies and execution are beyond impressive. After working with Angelo very closely for the past few years, it is no wonder why he has become one of the top matrimonial Attorneys in the State of NJ and in the Nation. He is the most talented, intelligent, aggressive, organized, detail oriented, efficient and honest Attorneys I have ever met. I appeared in court well over a dozen times with Angelo and each time I would look over at him with pride knowing he was my Attorney. He has a unique ability to present a case in a manner that ensures that the Judge hears the truth loud and clear. At the conclusion of my case which spanned over two years, the Judge said "Mr. Sarno, that was one of the most beautifully executed cases that has ever been presented in my court room". I can't imagine it could possibly get better than that for a plaintiff and I feel sorry for anyone who has to go up against Angelo Sarno in court. Hearing him present his closing arguments in court is similar to watching a scene out of a highly suspenseful movie where the Attorney pummels his adversary effortlessly at just the right moment without breaking a sweat. I could go on and on but most importantly...I will be eternally grateful to Angelo for keeping my child safe.

Best attorney choice for your NJ divorce

I switched representation to Snyder& Sarno from another firm that handled my case for a year. I interviewed probably 5-6 firms and went with Angelo due to very positive feedback of his clients, who were happy to spend time with me and give a positive reference. It was a lucky move. Angelo is an outst...anding attorney in every sense. His firm specializes on NJ matrimonial law, so he is very astute and experienced with regards to the legal side. He is excellent in court, aggressive, outspoken, and prepared. That was probably the best part of working with Angelo - he worked very hard on my case and was always prepared with relevant facts and discovery on the record in court. He is excellent in taking depositions and obtaining discovery. Angelo was also very smart and strategic about cases, first taking the big picture approach and then killing it on the execution. My interests were Angelo's main concern. Every step of the process I felt he was there for me protecting and fighting for my interests. Thank you, Angelo. I am so grateful and will be recommending you to all my friends.
