Samuel J Stoia

Sam was excellent throughout my 3.5 year divorce and was very patient while providing support and making sure I came out whole. My ex -husband had at least two attorneys, possibly three. The greed and selfishness and frivolous requests prolonged the outcome and made everything much more costly. I ...am very satisfied with Sam's guidance.

I was fortunate to have Sam represent me in my 9.5 year tortured divorce, which was an extremely high conflict matter, dealing with the sale of my multi-million dollar business, highly contentious custody issues, and a long series of frivolous, misguided and questionable tactics from my ex wife. ...My ex wife went through at least 3 attorneys, while Sam stayed with me through the entire process. Sam’s command of the law, finance and accounting, his written and verbal communications skills served to instilled in me a great sense of confidence and ease as he took control over very challenging situations. It was obvious that he had earned the respect of the various Judges we encountered by his professional demeanor in the courtroom and his thorough command of the law. Despite his best efforts to drive this matter to settlement, our matter went to trial, which went for a total of 18 non-consecutive days. Sam’s ability to prioritize and focus on the most important aspects of my case, along with an incredible ability to retain detailed factual history of all our proceedings and case correspondence, and his trial skills were most impressive. I am thrilled with the results Sam delivered as much as I am with his skills and work ethic. I have been awarded sole physical custody of my three children. I strongly recommend Sam if you’re in need of an attorney dealing with any family issues. I was very proud of the way he represented me and admire him as an intelligent, principled, diligent and fair person who puts the extra effort in and who sincerely cares on a personal level.

Navigating divorce and post-divorce family matters can be incredibly emotional and legally complex, especially when children and financial agreements are involved. I’m grateful to have had Sam Stoia, Esq. as my legal counsel throughout this process. Sam has been a pivital peron in mylife over the pas...t three years or so. From the start, Sam demonstrated a clear understanding of New Jersey family law, particularly in areas like equitable distribution, parenting time, alimony, and the nuances of cohabitation post-divorce. He was both thorough and strategigic; never pushing unnecessary conflict, but always ready to assert my rights when needed. One thing I appreciated most was his ability to distill emotionally charged situations into actionable legal guidance. For example, when I needed to communicate sensitive updates to my ex-spouse through Our Family Wizard, he offered invaluable insight into how to remain factual, concise, and aligned with the terms of our Property Settlement Agreement (PSA) while minimizing potential conflict. He gave me thoughtful advice about what not to include in communications. He also supported me with advice pertenant to the fact that I can move on with mylife wihout seeking approval from my ex. Sam also was happy to guide me through limiting emotionally loaded language via interactions with my former spouse. You never know how careful you need to word things until literally everything is on the line. Sam helped me maintain a neutral, protective tone that served both my child's interests and my own. Whether it was reviewing relocation concerns, responding to proposed parenting time adjustments, or crafting prenup/cohabitation protections for my new relationship, Sam consistently prioritized the long term plan for my son and I. If you're seeking a family law attorney who can advocate effectively while still encouraging respectful co-parenting, I highly recommend Samuel Stoia, Esq.. He supported me not just legally but also in staying grounded and thoughtful during a very transformative time in my life.
