Miriam is the Angel of Mercy of Divorce and everyone at Treuhaft & Zakarin Law NYC are amazing! Miriam is exactly what my bully/alcoholic Narcissistic Ex needed! She was my personal mute button I needed for years. She guided me, kept me calm, defended me and kept my son safe. I knew the minute I met ...her- she was the ONLY lawyer for me. Her straight forward take no prisoners style was exactly what we needed and thanks to her I NEVER saw a courtroom, mediator or evaluator. We hammered out the settlement and the judge stamped it! Done deal thanks to her. We got it done in 6 months and my ex was no picnic, but Miriam handled him like a Warrior and kept him off my back. I did not have pay spousal support, She helped me protect my son from a life of dysfunctional abuse and I got full custody both legally and physically! Everyone going through a divorce should be as lucky as I was to have Miriam fighting for us. It was the first time in my life I felt like someone was looking out for us and the Angels sent us to her. I finally found someone who truly cared about our quality of life and got it done without the horror stories you hear about from others. I owe her my life for allowing me to stand my ground and restoring the peace in my world. She will forever be in our hearts for the outstanding person she is and what she did for our family

I originally didn't need counsel for my divorce as it was uncontested, but it quickly became contested with disgusting allegations of abuse and myself being unstable to care for my children. I quickly obtained Miriam as counsel. She was on my side every step of the way, told me like it was, offered ...up ways to save me money and in the end, I got more than what I even asked for. I honestly cannot explain how amazing Miriam was, and how knowledgeable she was on every aspect of the divorce proceedings. My ex quickly realized that when it comes to lawyers at least in the divorce court, you get what you pay for, and by the time he figured this out, it was already to late for him as Miriam did not only crushed him in court with facts, but also crushed opposing counsel. I cannot emphasize enough, if you need counsel, Miriam is your woman.

Choosing the "right" attorney to represent us was the hardest decision ever. My divorce was very complicated because it not only involved 2 minor children (14 and 11 years old) but I wanted to move out of state. After nearly 15 years as a stay-at-home mom, I wanted to move back home close to family... and go back to school full-time in order to re-build my career. I spoke with and met with nearly a dozen different attorneys before I made my decision to go with Miriam Zakarin. I wanted an attorney that would truly listen to us and help make this divorce as amicable as possible. I also wanted someone who was well versed in the law and would stand his/her ground if things got rough. Having her represent us was the best decision! Miriam knows the law and has tons of experience in child custody. She is always willing to listen and give me sound advice on how we can handle each issue. She is always calm, cool, and composed....a major plus for me since there are many times where it was hard for me to stay calm. Some attorneys are all about litigation and that is not what I wanted. My situation was already emotionally charged and I did not want to escalate the stress in any way. She was able to communicate with my husband's attorney and find compromise. She was able to convince them that it was in the best interest of the children to move out of state with me. All in all, I got the results that I wanted and never had to set foot in a courtroom. Everything was handled in such a short amount of time. I'm still amazed at how quickly she got results. I highly recommend contacting Miriam if you are in need of representation with your divorce. You would hardly find an attorney who is as ethical, compassionate, knowledgeable, and reasonable. Her fees are excellent compared to others in the area. Thank you.

We had an opportunity to adopt a child, something we always thought of doing. I needed an attorney to help navigate the legal aspect of it. I wanted someone with experience that would hear my concerns. Miriam was that person. She made sure we were informed about the process and helped us not feel ove...rwhelmed by it all.

We were getting married and we both felt like we needed a prenuptial agreement. I had worked with Ira in the past. I like the personal service he provides. You are made to feel that your interaction with him is important. Attention to detail is important to him and his team. I feel very confident wit...h his legal experience.
