Smart and Efficient Lawyer

I had an excellent experience working with Susan Moss during my divorce process. From the very beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive during what was a very stressful time in my life. She took the time to explain every step clearly, answered all of my questions pati...ently, and always made me feel like my case truly mattered. Susan is not only a skilled attorney but also compassionate and understanding. She was strategic, detail-oriented, and consistently advocated for my best interests. Her communication was prompt and transparent, which gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind throughout the entire process. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, my case was resolved smoothly and with a positive outcome. I’m truly grateful for her guidance and hard work. I would highly recommend Susan Moss to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and caring divorce attorney.

Steadfast Support in a High-Conflict Divorce

I recently went through a highly contentious and emotionally draining divorce that felt endless and filled with constant conflict. The opposing side was consistently dishonest, making false claims and creating unnecessary battles at every turn. I was fortunate to have Sue Moss by my side throughout t...his arduous experience. Sue was not only a sharp and strategic attorney but also a steady, supportive presence during one of the most difficult times in my life. Much of the process involved reactive measures. Despite the relentless nature of the case, Sue never lost her composure. She remained focused and ethical, refraining from resorting to underhanded tactics—something that was very important to me. She fought hard but always with integrity, helping me navigate the complex emotional and legal challenges with a clear head. I never felt alone in the process; Sue was always available, thoroughly prepared, and had my back at every turn. Equally important to my experience was Alexis Wolf, Sue’s partner, who was nothing short of outstanding. Alexis was with me every step of the way—diligent, compassionate, and deeply committed. Her insight, responsiveness, and tireless support were essential, and I honestly would not have been able to get through this without her. If you are facing a high-conflict divorce and need an attorney who will support you fiercely while upholding professionalism and principles, I highly recommend Sue Moss.

SUSAN MOSS IS CRUEL, BARBARIC, INHUMANE—RUN AND DO NOT LOOK BACK

I am writing this review based on the alarming conduct documented in the real where Sue Moss was appointed as Attorney for the Children. Those considering the services of Sue Moss should be aware of serious allegations regarding her professional integrity and advocacy such as: Fabrication of "O...ral Orders": In this case, Ms. Moss reportedly asserted the existence of unverified "Oral Orders" that were neither recorded nor stated in open court. These alleged orders were used to strip a mother of her parental rights and mandate supervised visits at an astronomical cost. Defiance of Judicial Mandates: Documents indicate she ignored protocols established by the presiding judge and replaced qualified, court-appointed experts—who specialized in identifying parental alienation—with inexperienced social workers to influence the court’s direction. Failure of Due Diligence: Despite extensive reports from experts identifying dynamics of coercive control and domestic violence, Ms. Moss is accused of failing to perform necessary due diligence, choosing instead to facilitate a "personal vendetta" that obstructed all contact between the children and their loving and innocent mother for years. Medical Neglect: Concerns were raised regarding her failure to advocate for a child's health when informed of worsening conditions and withheld medical records. Susan Moss is a personification of moral degradation and a betrayal of the best interests of the children she was appointed to represent and protect. Having Sue Moss in your case is a stamp of guaranteed inhumane and barbaric tactics, no matter whose side she is on. There is only one side for Ms.Moss — her side. The side no one, believe me, wants to be on, no matter who she represents.

Blood on Her Hands

Two years ago, my 13 year old child killed herself. She left a note. ONE OF THE PEOPLE GIGI MENTIONED WAS SUE MOSS. When you have nothing to live for, you stop caring all the paper work you had signed. I never touched that money Sue. And you will never be able to wash the blood off your han...ds.

Disgusting, scum of an attorney.

Susan Moss is a detestable attorney who is only looking for money and self gloat with selfish tactics for funds and drive only to prove her worth at a firm that is devising her exit. Susan Moss is presently under review in two states. Every case she receives is by dint of the state or from a lawyer i...n her firm who is overloaded. Co-workers with proximity to her, unambiguously question her ability to follow the law, over her personal feelings that seem to plunder the better portion of her behaviors. She slithers through the legal scene sneaky and slithery; she never works for the client only to find her own personal gains watching as her clients lose hope in the judicial system and lives are ruined including many children and elderly. Susan Moss has the end coming due to her misconduct and disbarring will be her fate at the bench in Westchester County and Manhattan. Run, yes run your mighty powerful feet far from this horrific attorney.
