Margarita Romanova

I am a tenacious and compassionate attorney who is laser-focused on strategy. There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach in family law: strategy must be carefully curated based on the issues, personalities, and circumstances involved in each matter.

There is no higher professional calling than to be a competent, dedicated guide to the client and to assist the client in navigating through a fog of unfamiliar concepts, confusing rules, complicated relationships, and often intimidating actions of the other party.

In accordance with those principles, I represent clients in all aspects of family law litigation, including divorce, custody, relocation, child support, alimony, college contribution, equitable distribution, post-judgment applications, enforcement applications, prenuptial agreements, mid-marriage agreements, appeals and mediation. My practice is devoted exclusively to matrimonial and family law. I am also a Court-approved Family Law Mediator. 

I attended the University of Rochester and graduated cum laude, with a Bachelor Degree in International Relations and French. Prior to attending law school, I was a paralegal in the White Collar Crime section of the litigation department at Nixon Peabody, LLP, a global law firm. I earned my Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from the Rutgers Law School, during which I worked for the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security. After graduating from law school, I served as a law clerk to the Honorable Fred H. Kumpf (Recall J.S.C.) in the Civil Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey, Somerset County and, thereafter, was a litigation associate at Piro, Zinna, Cifelli, Paris & Genitempo, LLC.

My practice is devoted exclusively to matrimonial and family law.
