A great attorney

Miriam Zakarin represented me in my divorce. She thoroughly explained everything to me so I understood the whole divorce process as it went along. She went out of her way to accommodate me during a tough time. Her kindness and support were off the charts. She gave me great legal advice and had a well... layed out plan and strategy to ensure the best results for me. Thanks to her, the results of my divorce were the best case scenario. She was truly professional with a human touch. The best decision I made was retaining her services. I highly recommend her and can’t thank her enough for a job well done.

Divorce Case

Miriam handled my divorce case with a sense of urgency, sensitivity, and the utmost professionalism. All I had to do was give Miriam my information, and she took care of the rest. I will definitely be working with Miriam again in the future!

Good Knowledge, Weak Execution

I hired Miriam as my divorce attorney. On the positive side, she is personable, approachable, and clearly knowledgeable in her field. However, the agreement we finalized later proved to be lacking important detail. Key areas -such as specific responsibilities around child support and other everyd...ay expenses beyond basic categories like housing, food, and college-were either not clearly defined or omitted altogether. This creates confusion and issues for me currently, after the fact. Throughout the process, she often seemed very busy and rushed. While she did respond to emails, her answers were often brief and unclear, requiring interpretation rather than providing straightforward guidance. There were also times when a substitute appeared instead of her. Overall, I felt a lack of organization and focus on my case. I didn’t expect to be her only priority, but I did expect that when she was working with me-whether in conversation or over email- she would be more present, focused, and clear. If I had to go through the process again, I would choose a different attorney.
