Hiring Miriam Zakarin was one of the best decisions we’ve made. Can’t find great enough words to describe this attorney. Here are just some of them: highly knowledgeable and skilled, smart, dedicated, works hard to achieve best results for her clients. Miriam always returned our calls in a timely and efficient manner and found time to meet and address any concerns. We are really grateful for the service she provided us and the results we accomplished together. Thank you Miriam!

Miriam is very sharp, knowledgeable, thorough, compassionate and caring. She is concerned about your needs and is attentive and responsive when you need an answer or reassurance. Although she is kind and considerate, don't try to take advantage as she can also turn into a bulldog and bulldoze her way through nonsense and careless tactics. I highly recommend her.

My ex has sole custody of our twins and surprised me with the announcement that she planned to move cross country. I was stunned and hurt and needed legal advice and help immediately. Miriam’s calming demeanor and knowledge were the perfect prescription. I learned that their ages, my involvement with them and their best interests were all going to be factors to benefit me. She then further went on to see to it that they did.
