Divorce & Seperation Lawyer

Blake is an excellent Divorce attorney. I have never had to go through with a divorce before. I was extremely nervous in the beginning and no idea what to expect or have to do. After meeting with Blake, it was great to know I was in good hands and he brought all the experience needed to help me with ...my situation. He explained in detail what I would expect in each step of the process. He provided insight into each meeting and I knew what was going to happen. Blake submitted and provided the necessary documentation with the courts and my wife's attorney. He did an excellent job for me and would use him again if needed.

Professional and Personable

I obtained Blake's services for my divorce and a child support proceeding. He not only gave me sound legal advice but helped guide me through a very difficult time in my life. Blake was at all times professional, friendly and above all honest with me throughout the process. I would definitely rec...ommend Blake for any family law matter.

Caring, trustworthy, effective

Blake was extremely caring and very professional. He always had my best interest in mind while also counseling me as I went through an extremely emotional and difficult time in my life. He kept me focused and enabled me to understand and achieve results that were in my and my child's best interests....

Feedback on divorce attorney Blake Rush from client

Blake handled my messy divorce in 2012 and was able to eventually secure an acceptable settlement despite an unreasonable adversary. In addition, Blake was able to secure a permanent restraining order against my-ex while defending me from false allegations. Throughout, Blake was rational and consid...erate with his advice and counsel, trying to help me to minimize fees and to avoid further stress. Following the divorce, Blake helped me to defend and prevail with two additional claims by my ex, in both cases securing reimbursement of my attorney fees. Blake is very knowledgeable of the local attorneys, judges and court officers. He has access to a network which provided coverage when needed, and secured experts when needed. Blake returned all my calls promptly, and in many cases he answered brief emails or texts without billing me. I strongly endorse Blake!

Divorce Representation

I wanted to thank you for all of your support and representation in the recently completed divorce matter from my wife. The whole process was quite involved and cumbersome, and yet you manage to provide excellent representation, guidance, and patience in dealing with this matter from the initial c...omplaint right through to the final divorce settlement. Your knowledge of the court system and divorce process in the State of New Jersey was exemplary. Your professionalism, knowledge, intuition, and management are to be commended, and I would certainly recommend your services to anyone seeking legal representation in similar family matters.
