Outstanding Lawyer who is punctual and attentive.

I hired Steven to take over my divorce case that was already in default. Steven competently and quickly reviewed the details of the case. He was extremely knowledgeable and made a very difficult process much more manageable. On a personal level, Steven is kind and compassionate. He is very respon...sive, understanding, and professional, even when I kept emailing him non stop with issues dealing with my ex husband and our hearing, he always answered me and was very understand and helped get what was best for me and my children. After a favorable result in the divorce, I also used Steven in post divorce matters. I am dealing with an extremely difficult and non-compliant individual, and Steven helped enforce the original court order. I couldn’t possibly give a higher recommendation than Steven. I will keep posting as I am sure I will be filing future motions and always use Steven as my lawyer.

Cannot ask for a better family lawyer

To say Steven Cytryn is a good attorney is an understatement. He represented me in a complicated divorce -jurisdiction, inter-state custody battle and won the case for me when the odds were not in my favour. This was a hard fought case, where Steven was up against not one but two attorneys with fan...cy credentials that represented my husband. The successful judgements he obtained were all challenged at the higher courts by my husband and Steven won the appeals as well. Steven was calm and collected throughout. His moves were strategic and he was always one step ahead in anticipating and preparing for what to expect from the opposing attorney. He was incisive and factual with his oral arguments and it was clear by the Judges’ response that his arguments were well received that ultimately won the case.He has a commanding presence in the court appearances. I decided on hiring Steven after having spoken to at least 10 other attorneys. His advice was the one that worked. Despite his busy schedule he made himself available,was reachable and kept me informed about what to expect each step of the way and was my voice of reason when my emotions ran high and my nerves were frayed. He was a stark contrast to my other attorney that represented me in the other state. Among my team of three attorneys two in the other state (an appeals attorney and a family law attorney), Steven was the absolute best. He was always professional and also very considerate. He is a straight shooter, he will not sugar coat things that you want to hear just to take your money, rather he will listen to your concerns and strategize with you to give you a leg up and win your case for you. He is a rare find of a wealth of knowledge and expertise in family law combined with compassion and reasonable fees, a rarity in lawyers. I feel that he is a good human being overall and the compassion, consideration for others comes naturally to him. I am fortunate that he agreed to take on my case. Without any hesitation whatsoever, I highly recommend his services. He is worth every penny and definitely someone who you want in your corner when you’re going through the toughest challenges in life.

I could not have found a better lawyer to deal with each of my issues

I can’t say enough about Steven. I had some truly unique problems with my divorce. Not only did Steven meet me the same day I called him (even though he didn’t have the time), he understood exactly what approach was needed to resolve my challenges. I felt like I was being assisted by a family memb...er or friend. He knew I was my worst enemy was me and explained in as much detail as I needed, which road we needed to go down to resolve each and every obstacle. He allowed me to get sleep at night. I could not have found a better lawyer to deal with each of my issues.

I have never needed a lawyer. I had no idea how to go about finding the right one to represent me in family court. I did an online search and made some calls. Mr. Steven  Cytryn ESQ.really stood out above all others I interviewed. He is extremely thorough and professional fighter in court  . I was qu...ite pleased with him and his superior knowledge in trials .I would highly recommend  Mr. Steven Cytryn  ESQ.

Divorce and Custoday

When I met Steven in person he was very easy to discuss my case with and extremely knowledgeable of the laws. He was able to take my case and help me with a difficult divorce as I had advised him of how difficult it would be with my now ex. Steven was very professional and made sure he always did wha...t was in the best interest of his client. He always maintained and stayed on top of all issues even at time when we was having difficulty getting responses for the other attorney. His professionalism shows great fortitude and keeps him on track. His belief is what he doesk never waivered even through time when I didn't think it would be over. I would highly recommend Steven Cytryn to any of my friends/or co-workers that are looking for a good lawyer. Steven has something different then most Divorce attorney's have. Steven is dedicated to his client. I never felt like just another case. He is a rare and very experienced lawyer who has a vast knowledge of the law but still maintain his humanity when talking with his clients. So if you ever need a good attorney in a divorce proceeding I recommend him. His office is professional and he legal secretary Stephen is always on the top of her game. I was truly happy to have him represent me.
