Best attorney I have used!

Ms. Restivo did a great job representing me during my family court case. I had a very challenging case that was long and exhausting, but Ms. Restivo made me feel as if she had my best interest in mind. As such, I felt as if I was in good hands. Ms. Restivo was patient, thorough, competent and prof...essional. She picked up my phone calls, answered all my questions and kept me informed about scheduled meetings. What I especially liked about Ms. Restivo was her ability to keep me calm. I would definitely recommend Ms. Restivo to anyone who finds him or herself in a similar situation as myself.

I recommend Ms, Restivo highly

Carmen was a very strong advocate for me and my son in Family Court. I was assigned Ms. Restivo after having to switch lawyers mid way through a custody process and she completely turned things around for me. I am a man who ended up with legal custody that should say something. In addition to bei...ng knowledgeable and providing me with clear interpretations of how my situation applied to the law she was very capable at managing the sometimes chaotic atmosphere of family court and ensuring my side was clearly heard. I highly recommend Ms. Restivo without reservations.

Best lawyer for child custody.

Ms.Restivo took part in my boyfriend's child custody case, and she was very sussceful with his case, I remember how stressful and frustrated my other significant was with others lawyers until an angel from above send her to him, I can't find another way to describe this amazing lady full of determina...tion and woman power to win this case it was a very difficult and overwhelming case. But you did it, ms. Carmen Rita Restivo, I'm so proud to be a woman when I see women like you Ms. Restivo you represent people in court but you are a great inspiration for women like me. I seriously recommend Ms.Restivo to anyone who needs help in court.

Horrible attorneys do exist.

Mr. Restivo represented my custody case in Manhattan Family Court. What a bad luck. Ms. Restivo, and her ego, made the case as her own fight against the opposing attorney. Nasty words and rudeness- Unprofessional. Consequently she made my case very weak and prolonged the litigation unnecessarily.... I assume she only wants to earn hourly wages. After all, I needed to change attorneys. As soon as the new attorney took over my case, I saw the positive changes immediately. Lawyers make a huge difference-- I've learned the lesson hard way. Do you research and interviews. And do not hire Ms. Restive.
