Exceptional

( 2022) I had a post-divorce dilemma and needed an attorney. I did not use an attorney for my initial divorce, instead, I went with a paralegal service which was what I could afford. My ex-husband suddenly had an epiphany after 9 years of being divorced that he disagreed with the final divorce judg...ments. I searched the internet for an attorney after being notified by his representative but never came across Robin & Salvatore so I asked my neighbor and he got her number from a friend who had used her. In my gut, I felt I should not look any further and I did not. I met with Robin and her partner Dave and immediately I knew I made the right choice. I sat down with Robin and reviewed the dilemma and I felt relief! She made me feel comfortable, she is knowledgeable and professional in every aspect. During the process, communication with Robin, Dave, and their office staff was seamless! I never had to wonder what was next because they kept the line of communication open. Through it all I felt heard and understood. All worked out in my favor for me and my kids. I cried solitary and prayed and asked God to continue to guide and protect Robin, Dave, and her staff while giving them the strength to do what they do in people's lives. It was an excellent experience in many ways, personal and professional . I am grateful to Robin and her dynamic team. If I ever need an attorney under the umbrella that she practices, I know who to call and who to recommend when asked. “ Wernik & Salvatore”

Made my son's wishes come true!

Robin was our attorney for our psychological parent case. She was extremely knowledgeable and realistic as to the challenges we were going to face and the costs associated with the complex case. After a 7 day trial, we were named psychological parents and were awarded everything requested to the Judg...e. Robin prepared written and well supported briefs, prepared witnesses, knew experts in the field, and understood the complexities of our family dynamic and everything we needed to protect. Robin was so supportive and wanted so hard to make my son's wish come true - to have his family legalized and recognized!

Best Lawyer around!

I used this law office for a very difficult personal family matter and Robin Wernik, Esq. represented me with the utmost professionalism. I could not have felt more comfortable in her hands. Her staff was also extremely professional at all times and followed thru with every concern I had. I can’t sa...y enough about my attorney and her entire office. ++++++ If you need an attorney I would highly recommend Wernik and Salvatore. Ms. Wernik, Esq. took on a BIG firm and showed them up! Big firms don’t always mean good attorneys represent you.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
