I'm Lucky to have her as my Attorney

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

Impressive

I had another attorney prior to Miriam. I was extremely frustrated with my case dragging on and going no where, and had felt that I was being over-billed without a reasonable explanation. My divorce was already finalized after two long years (ridiculous since this was a long-term marriage with adult ...children). There were a few post-divorce issues such as 401K split and long-term spousal support (which I was challenging). Ultimately, I came to the realization that I had hired a charlatan and it was time to fire him! My case was assigned to Miriam and I was immediately impressed with her sharp tact and professionalism. Soon after Miriam became my attorney, There was no question in my mind that I would retain her as my attorney. Miriam was always on top of her game, and always gave my case top priority. Miriam explained to me later that it was important to her to make all her clients feel important and as if they were her only client. When the opposing side would play their delay tactics to prolong the high support I was currently paying, Miriam’s aggressive deliberation would kick-in, maintaining a high level of professionalism at all times. Miriam was never intimidated with the other attorney, even though he was well-established in the business. I should mention too that Miriam was always responsive to my emails or available to meet in person. She was always very fair in resolving any billing issues as well. In the end, my case (post-divorce!) was headed to trial, and Miriam kept the pressure on the opposing side. Ultimately through Miriam's tactful negotiation techniques, I was able to attain a buy-out and avoid the costs of a trial. It was a win-win as far as I am concerned. I have no doubts that if my case had gone to trial, we would have won :) I would absolutely recommend Miriam to anyone wanting a caring, compassionate and attentive attorney. Don't take a chance on hiring a charlatan :)
