Divorce client

Rosalyn is an outstanding combination of being superbly prepared with deep experience in the law . Her great spirit and humor calmed me during a highly complicated and extended divorce . Once I had her on my team , we were able to come to a conclusion of the process , with a very positive outcome for... me . I have the highest regard and greatest respect for Rosalyn's skills and talents .

I highly recommend Rosalyn A. Metzger

I have known Rosayln for 19 years, she was recommended to me by my son's teacher. It was a very difficult time for me. I found Rosalyn to be an extremely intuitive individual with excellent listening skills. She "get's it'. Rosalyn treated me with respect, compassion and understanding while being p...rofessional and practical. She takes the facts, explains the law, apprises you of the best and worst case outcomes and builds a plan with you. I always felt confident that she was doing her best on my behalf. As for her results, I received a very fair outcome which allowed me to provide for my boys properly, their ages were 5 and 1 at the time. Now, my oldest son just graduated Rutgers and is working for a big corporation and the younger just completed his 1st semester at Rutgers. I thank my lucky stars that I found her. Since Rosalyn transitioned into mediation, I had to hire other attorneys for various motions that came my way. I have not found another attorney who has demonstrated the legal/people competencies such grace as Rosalyn, she is what you expect an attorney to be. I still keep in contact with her. Rosalyn is one of the most ethical, competent and personable individuals I know, I recommend her highly.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
