Highly recommend Rower LLC (Alyssa Rower)

I was referred to Alyssa by two different friends and I chose to work with her because she was extremely professional, she took the time to understand my current and future goals, and I immediately felt at ease with her. She walked me through the divorce process and kept me updated at every step. Whi...le my divorce was amicable, the attorney on the other side was extremely different and Alyssa handled the entire situation with tact and grace and an amazing outcome. The divorce was finalized several years ago, but I've called on Alyssa to ask a question or negotiate a situation that changed, as circumstances often do in life. She was able to jump in and support me, even years later. She is highly responsive and always strives for the best outcomes for her clients.

Outstanding Divorce and Family Law Lawyer based in NYC

I highly recommend Alyssa and her team for any and all Family Law matters. While my experience with her related to a separation and ultimate divorce, I do not doubt for a second that she and her team excel at any aspect of family law. She is highly professional, super detail-oriented and knowledgea...ble, strategic, intelligent and extremely responsive. In addition, she is a lovely, caring human being who brings the exact right combination of empathy and sensitivity and "tough love" that you want during a highly charged divorce situation to make sure that she is protecting her client's best interests despite the complex emotions and landscape of a divorce. She excels at client-service, as well, and is great to work with. I could not have had a better person by my side during this process.

Wonderful Lawyer

I was extremely pleased with Kara and Alyssa at Rower and if you have any clients who need to seek relief in family court etc, I highly recommend them. They rose to the occasion on no notice to address my needs, which were to find crim counsel and to effectively work with my husband’s matrimonial at...torney at a time of crisis. They de-escalated the situation so much that it helped preserve our marriage. They also just returned my retainer in lightening speed. Their legal effectiveness and client service - not being all about the money and their ability to minimize issues and find commonality - are remarkable.

Professional, Efficient, and Communicative

Going through my divorce has not been easy, but Alyssa has helped ensure that the legal aspect has not contributed to the difficulty. From the start, she took the time to understand my needs in the situation and sent me background information on divorce proceedings. Throughout the process she has kep...t me up to date on developments and has worked efficiently. I highly recommend Alyssa to anyone seeking a divorce attorney.

Divorce

I was very pleased with the service of Rower LLC and it was my pleasure to work with Alyssa. All staff were impeccably professional, articulate, communicative, warm and understanding which was so important during the potentially stressful period during which I got divorced. All information regarding ...the divorce was explained concisely and comprehensibly which was helpful because the divorce jargon could have been complicated. I especially appreciated the lack of risk. The staff take very good care of their clients in my experience. For example, attending an inspection for my protection. I felt very secure and confident that I would succeed and justifiably purely because the staff were impeccable. Alyssa, was a pleasure to work with. Sincere, available and comfortable. I spoke to several lawyers before finding Alyssa and I am so glad and grateful that I found Alyssa. This divorce process was stressless. The synergy amongst the staff is also commendable. I highly recommend Rower LLC because a divorce can be stressful, confusing and overwhelming but because of Alyssa and the staff at Rower LLC, it was not from the first communication.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I'm a matrimonial attorney-mediator and a long-time colleague of Alyssa's. That I chose to hire her to handle my own divorce says more than I could do justice to in this review! Alyssa has all the qualities one would want in the attorney handling their matrimonial matter. She's whip-smart and extremely organized; nothing escapes her. She's an incredible advocate for her clients, and a wonderful colleague to have on the opposing side of a case. She's a leader within our professional community, and she operates at the highest level of integrity always. I would - I did - hire her in a heartbeat!"
