Allison E. Holzman

Initially, I came in for just a consultation. I wanted to gather facts and see what my options were. I had a very sensitive and scary situation going on that involved my children and I was not sure what to do. Allison was kind and empathetic, but also straightforward. She explained fairly quickly... what she felt I was dealing with and how I could move forward legally. I immediately felt confident in her understanding of the law and could feel her experience in my situation even though it was new to me. In the 18 months that we worked together, I could always count on unwavering answers to my shaky questions. Allison would circle back to me to make sure I understood what we were doing. I appreciate that she was very aware of our time and efficient in our interactions. She looked for ways to make things easier for me throughout the process. For me, this experience shook my self confidence and made it hard to see the forest through the trees. Allison was at times like a rope tow to hold on to and keep moving forward. Going through a divorce, especially with children involved, is not something anyone plans on, but I would highly recommend Allison to be by your side if you have to go through it.

Allison did an excellent job representing me through a very contested divorce. She was very well versed in the laws of NJ as well as the procedures necessary for the complete dissolution of a marriage. Allison would advise me if she felt something was not in my best interest to debate but would als...o make me stand my ground when necessary. She was present and available whenever I needed her with a quick response time. I highly recommend Allison for divorce and custody matters.

Allison is by far the best lawyer there is for all type of divorce cases. Her experience in handling a highly contested divorce is superb. Personally, I went through a very tough and bitter divorce. Allison has made the situation much more manageable with her compassion to help. She continuously ...looked out for the best interest of me and my children. She has demonstrated her expertise in the field of child custody law throughout my divorce. She strives for the best outcome for her client in any situation. Overall, I highly recommend her for her professionalism, ethics, and expertise.

Though my case is not yet closed, I feel compelled to boast about this woman's dedication, compassion, and intelligence. My experience with Allison thus far has been extremely positive even through the roughest times. Her belief in my rights and in ME have helped me to overcome some of the darker tim...es in a custody battle. She is sharp and articulate, and most importantly, loyal. She will not settle for something short of your desires or submit to the other party even when you sometimes feel like caving because she knows what the implications of that would mean for your future and what is in the best interest of the children involved. A taxing process becomes manageable with this woman by your side. On another note- she is fair in finances and will be smart with your dollar. I found an exceptional lawyer and friend in one.

Allison Holzman recently represented me in a divorce which included custody issues, a house and marital assets. I was deeply concerned about the entire situation and had no experience with matters such as these. I initially contacted Ms. Holzman over the phone and was immediately comfortable as I... felt she was giving me information without trying to convince me that any one way was the right way. I wanted an efficient process and was not aiming to fight over every little issue. Ms. Holzman gained my trust and she listened and showed empathy during the whole process and made sure I understood every step. She was smart and knowledgeable on all aspects of the case and proactive in briefing me on potential issues. I observed her very professional negotiation skills both in correspondence and in person. She was aggressive and stern only when needed and only when we were aligned on objectives and approach. This was important to me. I felt the overall outcome was positive and in the best interests of my children and myself. I would recommend Ms. Holzman to others as she is a compassionate and highly skilled attorney.
