Allison E. Holzman

Ms. Holzman provided timely, sound and thorough legal counsel. Alison demonstrated excellent knowledge of case law and represented me professionally and in a manner that quickly brought ease to me and to my situation. Ms. Holzman sought out my thoughts and concerns and considered and included them ...in our communications and proceedings. She is highly skilled, trustworthy and overall was a complete pleasure to work with.

After being divorced for five years I had all loose ends that were not addressed by my original divorce lawyer. I then hired a second lawyer to help me submit a QDRO to my ex husbands employer for my entitled pension benefits. He accomplished nothing because the employer was uncooperative and still I... had no pension. I was lucky enough to have found the Weinberger Law Group and Allison Holzman. She worked diligently to use the law and her negotiating skills to facilitate a QDRO and have it approved by the administrator and the Judge! I am so grateful to her for doing such an amazing job. Allison is an intelligent and very sympathetic attorney who knows the law and is the best attorney. I would recommend her to anyone that needs representation.

Allison's overall effort was outstanding during the divorce process. She was very knowledgeable, kept me informed and was able to respond to my requests within a short period of time. She was open, honest and gave me a sense of comfort and trust which put me at ease while going through this extremel...y difficult period of time for not only myself, but for my family as well. The results of the divorce far exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Allison to anyone that is planning on going through the divorce process. Allison's dedication and work ethic make her an asset to the Weinberger Law Group.

A lawyer should fully understand, clarify and defend all the points of a client's concerns and arguments precisely/correctly in proposed provisions of an agreement I found one minor ignorance of ambiguity could cause a time and money-consuming/additional legal process/debate with the plaintiff. I c...learly made a statement initially that "I would only pay up to $1000 per month for extracurricular activities except for summer" and the provision that the adversary suggested and we mistakenly agreed on was "the total amount of the HUSBAND's contribution to the children's extracurricular activities shall not exceed $1000 in any month, with the exception of any month in which the HUSBAND contributes to the cost of summer camp or summer activities for a child, and educational expenses outside of the classroom, which such activity and/or expense shall not be subject to a limitation on contribution by the parties". Before this is arguable, it should have been pointed out by the experienced lawyer. Now our interpretation of the educational expenses outside of the classroom is only limited to summer vacation but the adversary insists they should be the cases during school days as well. This ambiguity should have been clarified at the time by her from my point of view. Besides, the final court date was re-scheduled due to her overlapped court schedule and the cost was all on me. The time is money on the lawyer's society but not laymen's? Overall she did fair or average job but I wish she should take good care of this kind of ambiguous provisions based on her clients' points more precisely going forward. Thanks, CK
