EXCELLENT LAWYER, HIGHLY EXPERIENCED AND WELL VERSED IN THE FIELD OF FAMILY LAW

Back in January 2015 I hired Rosemary to represent me in a custody visitation case and also assist me with my child support case. After meeting with Rosemary for a consultation, I knew that she was the best lawyer to represent me, during this process. She is extremely knowledgeable, honest and provid...ed me with great feedback on what each parent’s rights and obligations were in both the custody and child support case. Rosemary also navigated well in the court room and explained the process and the law in a way that helped me to understand what was going on and what the next steps were. Rosemary was very patient, kind and very detailed oriented. She listed to all of my preferences and also help me to be realistic and fair, when looking at my preferences and wants during the process. During the end of the process everything that I asked for Rosemary was able to help me obtain in the final orders. I definitely without a doubt would hire Rosemary again, she is the top of top in New York City, and the best there is in the field.

Child Support

The father to my child disappeared when I told him I was pregnant. I found Rosemary when I was 7 months along in fear I would have no help. I tried to do the process on my own through the NYC Court House, did the filing, and found my son's father. The people that work for the Court House are rude,,... short with words, and act like they don't care. Your pretty much begging for help. By the 5th Court date, I'm up against the defense lawyer on my own, and Iost it due to emotions of everything I've been through alone. Of course they want to push your buttons to make there side look better. So glad I saved Rosemary's card. When I needed her she was there. I felt better that she was on by my side, she knows the NYC Court House in and out, the laws, and the best legal advice. She fought for a mother and her child rights. Thank god there are laws to protect a mother and her child. Some men would disappear for good and could care less what happens to there own child. You want Rosemary on your side for a child's rights. Thank you.

A Priceless Gem

I have had multiple dealings with Ms. Rivieccio. I can honestly state that she is honest, trustworthy, highly knowledgeable, and works closely with you to assure that everything is being done in your best interest for you, her client, that she holds in the highest regard and with the upmost respect.... Let's face it... If one needs to hire an attorney than one also needs to make sure the best is being selected for his or her legal situation. When you are represented by Ms. Rivieccio, you are immediately put at ease. Her caring ways and deep devotion to her craft put her among the best. She takes you through the entire process seamlessly, intelligently answers all of your questions, and at the end of the day, you feel 100% confident in the fact that you made the best decision in your life with her looking out for you. Should I ever need legal counsel again, Ms. Rivieccio would be my one and only choice... Hands down.

The divorce lawyer other lawyers recommend.

I was referred to Rosemary by a friend who is an attorney. She said Rosemary would be her first choice. That was five years ago, and I can't think of anyone who has had a more positive impact on my child's life than Rosemary. Her advice , decisions and strategies still affect his life today, in t...he best possible way. She is the only attorney I met, who absolutely put my child first as I asked. A divorce agreement will affect you and your children for years to come, she foresaw every pitfall and knew every question to ask. She is honest and tough and will fight for you. Rosemary is absolutely responsible, in large part, for my son coming through his parents divorce unscathed. He is a happy, well adjusted boy, in large part because of her work. I work with many attorneys daily and she is the most ethical and competent one I have ever met. I will always be grateful for her expertise.
