Jan Lenore Bernstein

Jan is a superb matrimonial attorney: experienced, thoughtful, objective, confident and hands-on. I also find her to be personable, unpretentious and caring. She represented me in two divorces in Bergen County, over the past 15 years, spanning her time at Riker Danzig and now Sills Cummis & Gross. Th...e work involved all financial matters (alimony, child support, property distribution, retirement plans); custody was not in dispute. Jan coordinated well with other experienced professionals on my behalf, such as my estate planning attorneys (from another law firm) and managers from my employer firm (a private partnership). Jan is currently representing me in seeking a modification of alimony due to retirement, in which she prevailed against another highly respected matrimonial attorney in a hearing on a new interpretational question of law. Jan’s professionalism has been consistent in all of her work with me. It has also been apparent that Jan is held in the utmost high regard by colleagues and judges, including many mentees with whom she maintains positive relationships. She has my trust, confidence, admiration, and friendship.
