Smart & Levelheaded

Rosemary represented me in a divorce / custody case that threatened my custody of the kids. As a father, I heard horror stories about losing custody which only added to my anxiety. I contacted her on a recommendation from a family friend, and am extremely happy that I did. Rosemary is smart, levelhea...ded, and quick witted. With her expertise, I won back the custody of my children and finally settled the divorce on terms more equitable than were presented to me originally. She was able to keep me on track when emotions ran high. Rosemary is professional and worked well with the judge and the children’s attorney. She is an amazing lawyer and I'd highly recommend her.

Great Advocate for Justice

Rosemary tirelessly advocated for my child when her own mother was connected to a husband attorney who abused the truth and court systems. Rosemary never let any lies or mistruths get by and would always stomp them down with the truth. I highly recommend Rosemary if you want the most excellent on... your side who will work hard for you.

Attorney for child

I thought Rosemary was an excellent attorney. She served as my child’s attorney in a very challenging custody case. She was very fair and showed very good judgment through the case. She also did a very good job helping the parents to mediate when problems arose during the course of the proceedings.... I highly recommend her.

My Hero

Rosemary represented me in my divorce case that began in 2017 and finally ended in December 2019. I was living with an emotionally abusive, alcoholic, manipulative partner. He fought everything even when it was against his own best interests and as such, the divorce was incredibly costly and drawn ou...t. At times, I really didn't know if I was going to be able to make it, but Rosemary was always steady and clear-eyed. She didn't sugar coat anything but rather assured me that I had the strength to continue and that she'd be by my side. She was always quick to answer a question, and advocated fiercely for me in court and in communications with the other side. She's collaborative - meaning she would take my input, have productive dialogues with the children't attorney, and she TRIED to collaborate with the other side, however it my husband's attorneys seemed more interested in billing hours than bringing our case to closure. Long story short, two years later, my kids and I are starting over. I got custody which was most important to me to ensure kids are safe and stable.

Child Custody Case

I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Mrs. Rivieccio for the way she handled my custody case. As a father you go into these situations worried that your concerns would not be taken seriously, but Mrs. Rivieccio was thoughtful, prepared, succinct, professional, and always available to follow up on... my questions and requests of the court. She took the time to sit with me each time and explain the legalese which would have gone over my head. The differences between she and my daughter's mother's attorney were apparent and were very much a part of the reason why I now have custody of my daughter. I would not hesitate to hire her or refer her in the future.
