Michael R Magaril

I have had a number of cases wherein Michael Magaril was my adversary and dozens more where he served as mediator. As an adversary, Michael is very, very knowledgeable, professional and quite adept at getting to a resolution. He practices with absolute integrity. As a mediator, he is one of the mos...t popular and trusted matrimonial mediators in Union County. I constantly recommend him to my colleagues and clients. His personality is such that both sides leave the mediation session pleased that his/her position has been heard and considered. He resolves a very high percentage of these cases.

Michael made a very ugly and stressful divorce, tolerable. In the beginning, he told me to prepare for a marathon and not a sprint..he was right. His professionalism, knowledge, and hard work got me a better result than I had ever expected. Michael was always available to talk, whether by phone, emai...l or text. This includes nights and weekends. Not many lawyers would respond to your text on a Friday evening! Highly recommended.

As a practicing attorney, when I asked family attorneys who they respected, Michael's name consistently came up. When I first met with attorneys for consultation, Michael provided far more attention and advice than any other. I retained Michael as counsel for divorce, perhaps the most difficult time ...in my life; however, the key to divorce is to actual follow your attorney's advice. I found Michael's advice to not only be sound, but it saved me much emotional toil and heartbreak. He always had my best interests in mind; not just during the process, but planning for the future. Divorce is just a single event in the journey of life. Michael is there to make sure you can continue your journey. Michael is not simply an attorney performing services for clients - He is an always available friend, with the strength and integrity that others look up to as an example of what a human being ought to be. The facts are what they are. The law is what it is. Michael was there to take me through the whole process, not just as my attorney, and not just as my friend, but as my angel.

I haver known Michael Magaril for many years and can truly say that he provided excellent legal support throughout, what turned out to be, a somewhat complicated divorce. I was able to contact him without issue, ask questions without embarrassment, and depend on him without concern. Divorce can be ...a tricky issue, and one that many have to face, but with a supportive and intelligent lawyer behind you, it doesn't have to be as scary. I hope to never have legal problems again but, in the event something comes up in my future, Mr. Magaril will be the first one I call. I highly recommend him - he has the knowledge, experience and commitment to help no matter what issues may arise.
