Nancy handled my divorce case with excellence

Nancy Horta is a very knowledgeable and empathetic Lawyer. Simply put, she's outstanding at what she does. She took over my case and demonstrated her professionalism and excellence in applying the laws which mattered for my case. She protected my interests in custody, alimony and child support with ...the skills of a surgeon. She’s reasonable with her fees, will work with you to do her very best to help in every possible way, she’s direct and thorough. Nancy has a warm, pleasing personality and she's a bulldog when necessary. She's very confident and did not waver when things got tough. Nancy went above and beyond the divorce agreement and further assisted me even after the case was over. I'm very blessed she handled my divorce case meticulously.

A perfect hire!

I was involved in a high conflict custody case and was referred to Nancy. Nancy did not sugar coat anything that would happen, and many times was a calming force in such a stressful situation. She's genuine, and truly cares about her clients. I would strongly recommend her.

Easily the Best Family Attorney in Bergen County

I have been in a very contentious custody battle over my 5 year old daughter since April 2016 and have worked with a total of 4 attorneys to date. Some of these attorneys were highly rated. In less than a year Nancy has done more for my custody case in getting me increased custody with my daughter th...an the other 3 attorneys did for me in over 3 years constantly in and out of court. Nancy is more than worthy to be classified as a “Super Lawyer“ and probably the best family attorney in the Bergen County Family Court System. She has known every judge and every adversarial attorney we have faced and has successfully strategized against each and every one.

Intelligent, brilliant and amazing!

I had a two hour consultation with Nancy and she made feel so confident knowing she will represent me as my attorney and I could not be happier! She's so devoted, plays fair and is utterly completely knowledgable. Her intentions are good, fair and just. She knows the law so well, I have to say, she ...is magnificent! I have the upmost respect for her and know as she represents me, all will go well and in my favor as she has my best interest as well as my kids' best interest at hand. She's just truly amazing!
