An Outstanding Attorney Who Excels In Family Law

Attorney Rosemary Rivieccio is the type of lawyer every client wants, and all other lawyers strive to be like. She has the utmost respect and admiration of clients, defense attorneys, district attorneys, clerks, and judges. Her skills and hard work is surpassed only by her modesty and compassion. Thr...oughout her years as a family attorney, Rosemary has proven herself to be an ardent defender of her client's rights, and a woman with a passion for justice. Each and every day she is a living example of what all attorneys should be. Simply put, she is the best of the best in my book. As my attorney, Rosemary was very proactive in protecting my rights and providing quick and reliable feedback and answers to questions. Additionally, she displayed excellent negotiation skills in settling my case. My nephew’s well-being and stability is everything to me, and when Rosemary was assigned to my case, I instantly felt she understood that. She is extremely knowledgeable on the law and is very strategic with her cases. Plus, she truly cares about her clients and fights for what is important to them. In the courtroom she is incredibly prepared. In giving advice, she steers her clients down a high road. I always felt like I was being advised to "take the high road" and knew that she had my best interest at heart. I would advise anyone seeking legal custody of a child to understand that the wheels of justice are slow. What seem like huge monumental problems along the way are only small bumps in the road in hindsight. Rosemary helped me maintain perspective along the way, and I would always appreciate her for that. I’ve never seen an attorney work so diligent, efficiently, be so invariably responsive, and handle every situation so adequately. In fact, most family attorneys do not work past regular business hours. However, she was always responsive over the weekends and often late at night when an issue arose. Ultimately, this helps when you’re going through a difficult situation. Therefore, her advice and guidance facilitated my case into a much stronger one that worked in my favor. Rosemary Rivieccio is the greatest! She truly understands her clients and has outstanding communication skills. Essentially, she is her own abundant and prestigious team, and for these reasons you would be very fortunate to have her represent you!

Patient and Understanding

Rosemary did an excellent job at consistently communicating with me, answering my questions, and ultimately getting me exactly what I wanted on my custody case. While this was a time of high anxiety and ambiguity for me, Rosemary did a great job of keeping her cool while advocating for what I wanted.... She presented as focused on the ultimate goal at all times. I am so grateful that I had Rosemary as my attorney so I was able to get the outcome that I wanted!

Strong yet Compassionate

During an extremely emotionally taxing time and a complex legal custody situation, Rosemary was a winning combination of strong yet compassionate. I could not have asked for a better advocate for myself and my newborn Son. Rosemary always made sure to explain what was happening legally so I could und...erstand which allowed me to make informed legal decisions- and ensured I was thinking of the bigger picture. Rosemary does her job with the utmost integrity and is extremely tactful at all times. She is patient and kind and anybody who is represented by her is fortunate to have her as their legal council.

Simply The Best!

Rosemary, I want to thank you for all of your hard work. Thank you for fighting for me and protecting me and my daughter. You are truly the greatest. And thank you for putting up with me when I was being difficult and thank you for never giving up on me. You are the reason why me and my child m...ade it through 2016. Your work is honest and truthful. You played clean and never had go the route my ex husband's attorney did. Which I respect. Your honorable work and integrity has inspired me to work hard and create my own life so I never have to rely on anyone but myself. I don't know what career path I'll choose, but I know I want to help people they way you helped me. So thank you!!!

A great expert in the field of family law

Rosemary is a one of a kind expert. If you are looking for someone who will be a strong advocate on your behalf, than Rosemary is the attorney for you. I had the pleasure of hiring Rosemary for a petition against me, regarding a modification in my custody visitation and child support case. Throughout... the process Rosemary kept me abreast of what was going on and made me feel at ease. She is fair and most importantly she holds her clients needs and concerns at high regards. Rosemary won both of my cases, and was able to get me exactly what was fair and what was in the best interest of my son. I wouldn't hire any other attorney, she is simply the best in the field of family law.
