Client Testimonial – Christopher R. Musulin & Kimberly Greenfield

When my divorce began during the height of COVID, I thought I had chosen the right legal representation. The attorney I first hired from a so called reputable firm promised quick resolutions and minimal stress, but reality was the opposite. My case dragged on for more than three years, costing me tho...usands of dollars, endless frustration, and emotional exhaustion. Communication was almost nonexistent, and I often felt neglected at critical moments. Completely disheartened, I was ready to represent myself—until I came across South Jersey Magazine’s ‘Awesome Attorneys’ feature. That’s where I discovered Christopher R. Musulin. Every review I read spoke not only of his expertise but also of his genuine compassion and dedication. From my very first visit to his office, I understood why he is so respected and renowned. His walls are lined with diplomas, degrees, and achievements—impressive in their own right—but they are only a fraction of what makes him exceptional. His office is filled with empathetic professionals who know your name, remember your story, and are always ready to act. Alongside Mr. Musulin, Kimberly Greenfield became an essential part of my journey. Together, they worked as a seamless team—strategic, responsive, and unwavering in their advocacy. Kimberly’s diligence, compassion, and attention to detail brought me reassurance at every turn. She, too, treated me with respect and sincerity, making sure I always felt informed, prepared, and fully supported. The moment you become their client, you realize you’re not just working with attorneys—you’re working with people who fully commit to standing in front of you and defending you to the very end. Thanks to the steadfast commitment of Christopher Musulin, Kimberly Greenfield, and their entire team, I went from feeling powerless and exploited to being heard, protected, and finally at peace. Hiring them was not just the best legal decision I made—it was the turning point that gave me back both my dignity and my future. - Former Client, Florence, NJ

Excellent Advisement - Highly Recommend

Mr. Musulin continuously showed a deep understanding of my personal situation and demonstrated empathy throughout the legal process. He answered my questions with great clarity/patience and kept me informed every step of the way, which gave me great peace of mind.

Highly Recommend

I cannot say enough about Musulin Law Firm, specifically about my lawyer Christina Fulton Groves. I was in a very difficult situation: coming out of a short-lived marriage where I had moved out of the country with a man who had dual citizenship. I had just escaped the marriage and returned to the USA... with nothing to my name. I was also 2 months pregnant with my first child when I met Christina and the team there. Not only were they extremely compassionate, but they worked with me in every way possible given my situation. Christina was completely supportive yet honest with me every step of the way, but was also highly competent both with the laws and legal processes as well as with handling communication with my ex's lawyer who was in and from a different country/culture. In the end, I achieved getting the most important thing to me: full sole custody, without compromising beyond what I was willing to. I truly feel she was a God-send and couldn't have done it without her.

Review of Christopher Musulin, Esquire

I would like to strongly recommend the team at Musulin Law Firm and Mr. Christopher Musulin in particular. I was recommended to Mr. Musulin by another attorney and told that he is one of the finest in the State of New Jersey, and was directly responsible for some of the divorce law enforced in the s...tate, and therefore was quite familiar with all case law and precedent. I am extremely grateful for the recommendation. As in most divorces, this was a particularly sad and depressing time in my life where there are no winners. I was not only concerned for my children, but for the economic turmoil this would inflict on my life for many years. My wife's attorney came from an arrogant and demanding place, and convinced my wife that he would get her a huge settlement, and I was immediately concerned that this divorce would turn into a long battle that would affect my long term relationship with my ex-wife, and thus have a terrible effect on my two young children and their future, which I had worked so hard to secure for so many years. Mr. Musulin met with me, guided me through audits of my businesses, gave me all of his time that I needed, and mapped out a strategy (based on New Jersey State Law) so that I could be calm and balanced when discussing the details of the divorce with my wife, which I asked him if I could do, so as not to cause any unneeded conflicts or legal bills. My wife's attorney was absolutely no match for Mr. Musulin. I would go so far as to say that Mr. Musulin ultimately embarrassed him, without seeming to try. After a long and arduous period, and after Mr. Musulin had established much legal precedent and a financial support team to ensure that I would be safe if the divorce went to court, it became clear that my wife would be getting far less than I even offered. When I chose to offer my wife more in the divorce and end the potential for a long and drawn out legal battle, Mr. Musulin, knowing that he could extend the process and bill me more, agreed that I was being fair and generous, and advised me to finalize the divorce. While other attorneys are thinking of their own families and working to bill their clients, Mr. Musulin was thinking about my family, and actually cared for me and the true realities that face a family during such a difficult time. Mr. Musulin is interested in being honest and fair with his clients and there is not a hint of arrogance in his straight forward approach. He keeps his eye 100% on the law, which he knows better than most (or atleast much better than my ex-wife's "high powered attorney", and works to educate his clients on the process which helps them sleep at night. He turned over every rock for me to make my case and end such a terrible process. If I had allowed Mr. Musulin to use all of his skills and knowledge during my divorce, my wife (now ex-wife) would have gotten far less in the divorce. Because of experience and wisdom, I will always owe him a debt of gratitude and will recommend him whenever possible.
