Highly Professional

I used Ed Fradkin for a highly contentious divorce, with a young daughter in the picture, which included numerous allegations of domestic violence. I reached out to several long-time associates in the area, as well as several family attorneys, all of whom recommended Ed, and their recommendations wer...e well founded. He handled the entire case professionally and honestly. He was blunt with me when he needed to be, but also handled the situation overall with the proper care. He and his entire staff were extremely communicative and kept me advised of all steps of the process. Ed is not cheap, but honestly, you get what you pay for in his case. He is extremely knowledgeable, has a great demeanor when appearing in court, and, in my instance, did a respectable job in dealing with an adversary who was never forthcoming with her own attorneys. I already have recommended Ed to several people, both during and following my divorce, and I am now utilizing his services for a post-divorce motion that is sizing up to be quite messy again. I know, without a doubt, that I will be more than satisfied with his services once again. Don't let his rates scare you off, he is worth every penny and always presented accurate records of all charges, none of which were ever questionable. If you need an experienced attorney to handle any family situation, Ed should be at the top of a very short list.

Look elsewhere

He took my retainer and flew through my money in less than 2 weeks - accomplishing absolutely nothing, not even filing a single motion. What a complete waste of time, effort. i can not say enough negative things about my awful experience with this attorney. I was discussing it in the bank with a g...irlfriend on the phone and a customer said she was having an awful time with her attorney and was suing him - turned out to be the same attorney - and then my girlfriend called and told me about a 3rd - this is all within 3 minutes - if I keep researching I am sure I will find more - at least I have 2 witnesses. Save your money - run - run fast!

While I am not aware of who wrote this review or what case he/she is referring to if this person contacted me I would gladly take the time to sit with him/her and discuss my representation of him/her and any adjustments of the bill that would be warranted. I will always address any issues that a client brings to my attention and attempt to resolve same in a mutually agreeable fashion.

Look no further

I used Mr. Fradkin for a very messy divorce. I was not happy with my original lawyer and took a recommendation from a business associate. It was the best advice that I could have gotten. Not only was his knowledge astounding, but his command of the situation and overall demeanor were a calming inf...luence at a difficult time. I now use him for child support issues and he never fails me. He is not afraid to fight the tough battles and was never afraid to tell me if I was wrong. I may have been his most difficult divorce case but I was never treated any way but fairly and honestly!

Endorsement for Ed Fradkin

I was referred to Ed by two people and I am very thankful that I took their advice. In December 2013, I was informed that my wife wanted a divorce. I was aware of her attorney's reputation and knew I had to find someone that would be able to handle not only her lawyer but her lawyer when plenty of ...misinformation was provided to her. Ed remains calm while fighting for what he believes you deserve. He is very honest with you and does not just tell you what you want to hear. His team is very responsive and I am always kept informed about my situation. I also used Ed's office for the closing of my current home. I have already recommended Ed to a family friend and will do so again in the future.

He won't let you down!!!

I was very lucky to have Ed Fradkin as my attorney during a high conflict divorce and numerous difficult child support post judgment cases. Ed is brilliant and knows the laws like the back of his hand. He is thorough and tough but truly cares about his clients and their children. Ed was able to put m...y mind at ease during an extremely stressful time. I knew all would be alright as long as he was my attorney. You will want him on your side!
