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.

SHE IS THE BEST LAWYER IN TOWN!

I HIRED ROSEMARY RIVIECCIO TO REPRESENT ME SO THAT I MAY OBTAIN CUSTODY OF MY NIECES! FROM DAY ONE ROSEMARY HAS BEEN AMAZING. SHE IS VERY NICE, UNDERSTANDING, TRUSTWORTHY, HONEST, AND SHE COMMUNICATES VERY WELL. ANYTHING THAT YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND SHE MAKES CLEAR. SHE HAS HELPED MY FAMILY AND I LIVE ...OUT MY MOTHERS LAST WISH WHICH WAS TO TAKE CARE OF HER GIRLS. FOR THAT I AM FOREVER GREATFUL! IT IS BECAUSE OF ROSEMARY, THAT MY FAMILY WILL REMAIN TOGETHER AND BE ABLE TO ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS. SO IF YOU NEED AN ATTORNEY I HIGHLY RECCOMEND HER!

Thank You

I had the pleasure of working with Rosemary for a senstive family matter. Not only did I obtain the legal result my family wanted, but she made a stressful time much easier.

She might be the BEST attorney for children in Manhattan

Rosemary is an excellent attorney! She represented my children for several years as my case dragged through family court at a snail's pace. Rosemary ALWAYS put my children's wishes and desires ahead of everyone else's just as the code of conduct requires attorneys for children to do. She never waiver...ed in supporting my children's best interests, even when my ex and I were too polarized to hear what our kids wanted. In the end, my kids still send her a Christmas card every year since she started representing them in 2003! They loved her and I am eternally grateful that she helped our family get through several very difficult years.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Ms. Rivieccio was a tremendous help to us when our grandchildren were caught in the middle of a very contentious custody battle. She actually traveled to our home in Texas to determine whether relocation from New York to Texas was in the children's best interest. Although they ultimately remained ...in New York, Ms. Rivieccio went to great lengths to weigh the different options available for the children. She was extremely pleasant and kind to be around. It gave us great comfort to have such a good advocate for our grandchildren during a very difficult time.
