You want a Champion?....It's Alison Aplin

Going through a recent ,harrowing,extremely stressful divorce of our son,could have resulted in an overwhelming disaster for all involved. The "Saviour"of the circus that was going on for over a year with another NY divorce lawyer,was Alison Aplin. She took over the case,which was going nowhere... for over year,except to wasting the court's time and making that lawyer richer. Alison Aplin is a lawyer for her client and only for his,or her, well-being, not for any self-serving reason. She attacks the case with intelligence,integrity,full knowledge of the court,the opposing lawyer(s),the complete and actual facts of her client's case and,most importantly,with a total understanding of her client. Alison Aplin keeps the proceedings in court on target,aggressively gets the case to completion with the best results for her client. She successfully and most professionally completed our son's divorce in good time and with excellent results. Her knowledge and experience in NY Courts of Law,speak for themselves in an outstanding manner. Alison Aplin gets the "job" done! You most assuredly can place your trust in her very capable hands!!

Glad I hired Ms. Aplin for my divorce

I hired Ms.Aplin after 3 years of hiring a bunch of crook lawyers. My ex's lawyer was trying to drag my divorce and splitting of the proceeds from the sale of the marital residence. I hired Ms.Aplin and was very satisfied. She was professional, honest and was looking out for my interests unlike my... past lawyers. It only took Ms. Aplin 1 court date to finalize my divorce and the dividing of funds from the sale of the marital residence. She was better than I ever expected. Save yourself lots of money and aggravation. Hire Alison Aplin. She is simply the best no question about it.

The best attorney out there!!

I am so glad that I didn't listen to any of these bitter exs' that wrote fake reviews about her! Alison Aplin is the most experienced educated no nonsense attorney out there! Walking into court with her by my side was the most greatest feeling ever! She knows her stuff is well respected by all Judg...es! I'm not going to sugar coat my words or watch how I say what I'm about to say. Alison chewed up my ex and his attorney making them both feel like nothing! She is a pitbull without the aggressiveness. She doesn't even have to shot out to make her point! She is the most educated lawyer out there! There is nothing that you or any attorney can pull on her, she knows your move before you think about it! She is upfront about everything! Alison Aplin is worth every penny plus she makes sure you get what you deserve and then some! ❤️❤️

Child Support College Costs

Ms. Aplin is a no nonsense divorce lawyer. After 12 years of being divorced, my ex had the nerve to want me to continue to pay child support after my daughter went away to college. She refused to pay her half of colleges expenses as well. Our original agreement called for us to split the proceeds ou...r our house when the child turned 21. She took out equity loans and refinanced without my knowledge eroding the equity I was entitled too. Yes, it took awhile BUT this is the system! Ms Aplin crafted a settlement that freed me from future child support because I was paying the entire college bill. She is placing a lien on the house so the ex can not take any more money out or sell it without my knowledge and got the ex to waive her interest in a summer house as compensation for college costs going forward. I trusted her expertise and learned her knowledge of the present law won my case!
