Best Attorney in NJ

I love Nirm's style. He knows what issues to highlight and which ones to avoid in front of a judge. He knows exactly how to handle the opposing attorney too. He has a direct, smooth and effective approach. Most of all, I find him fair and he has a very kind heart. He is personable yet professional.... Worth every penny. I used his firm for my divorce and again a few years later in 2019 for a motion. I am pleased with the results and highly recommend him.

Great JOB!

After the untimely death of one of his partners, Nirm to over my contentious divorce. As an attorney myself(I knew enough NOT to have a fool for a client..aka..me), I hold myself as well as other attys to a very high standard of practice. Nirm met and exceeded my expectation by understanding the nua...nces of my matter as well as providing me excellent "local" information regarding the Court/Judges/standards which is so very significant when involved with litigation. I obtained a MORE than fair settlement in a matter that I anticipated never settling..Thank you Nirm and the team, great job!

Well balanced and detail-oriented litigator

Nirm helped me navigate through a very complex divorce. Throughout the process, he skillfully pressed issues that needed to be pressed, and pulled my focus away from the issues that ultimately were not important to me and were distracting me. Ultimately, he helped to protect my legal and parental c...ustody rights, and I am grateful that he and his office were on my side.

Exceptional Divorce Lawyer. One of the best in the area.

My case was very complicated as it was a short marriage but with significant international divorce law and immigration issues. After suffering through a bad experience with another lawyer who did not understand the subtleties in my case, I asked around for lawyer recommendations and finally decided t...o approach Nirm (The person that recommended him was a lawyer herself and had a high opinion of Nirm). I started feeling optimistic right from the first meeting as he listened patiently to my story and asked questions very relevant to my situation. The meeting was a big relief in what was otherwise a very difficult and emotional period for me. Over the next few months, he spoke with immigration experts and consulted with divorce lawyers conversant with divorce law in my home country. He suggested a course of action that targeted all the problems in my case and negotiated ably with my ex-wife's divorce attorney. He drafted a concise and intelligent document that phrased my story and problems effectively and presented it to the panel. The hearing was favorable for me and I finally found a good solution to my complicated problem with all its knots. I look back and I am amazed at how clean the solution was. This would not have been possible with a lesser lawyer. I wholeheartedly recommend Nirm. You will get to work with a lawyer who is very capable and is also empathetic towards your problems.

Wonderful!!!!

Wonderful attorney. He got me 50-50 parenting time with my child, which normally doesn't happen for a father.
