Alison was an excellent attorney for My situation! She went after my daughters father for child support who hadn’t paid in 14 years! Well when it was time to really fight for what was mine she was like a viper in the court room! Needless to say she won the case for me! Thank you very much Aliso...n!

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!!

Love her, my ex has had about 4-5 different attorneys, and I have had her and only her since day 1. She is an excellent attorney and has handled my child support and custody case and would want no one else to represent me in court. Everytime my ex drags us back in to try and get out of child support ...or bogus "violations" of the custody agreement. She gets the job done and is a force to be reckoned with in a court room, hire her before your ex does!

I am a Wall Street executive living in Manhattan for decades and I hired a "hot shot" Manhattan lawyer to originally handle my case. After close to a year of complete nonsense and huge bills, I was nowhere in court and finally realizing how the system and most players in it are a sham. I think we c...an agree that the majority of divorce lawyers out there are scum and they suck you dry by playing on emotions of the clients on both sides. The process is by far the worst experience beyond losing a loved one. Great frustration and anxiety watching and experiencing the incestious relationship between opposing lawyers, court lawyers and yes, the judges themselves made sick and it made me crave real justice with no-nonsense lawyer representing me properly inside a pathetic system. My ex-lawyer, my ex-wife's lawyer and others in the system were all morally bankrupt in my opinion. I needed fairness, strength, sensibility and justice on my side, hence hiring Alison Aplin. If you want to get past the hyperbole served up by most divorce lawyers in the system, then you need to seriously consider Alison Aplin as your representation. She is tough as nails, she is not glitzy nor glamorous and I say this because when you are considering divorce, you want someone representing you that cares about YOU and only YOU and not someone that is concerned if their office is lined in walnut paneling and shiny brass high up on the 30th floor of a midtown office building. She hides behind no facade, she is law, she eats it, she breathes it and she knows how to navigate a corrupt, sad and inefficient court system like the one that exists in Manhattan. She is the type of lawyer you want in your trench during the heat of battle. She has your back and her sensibilities kept me, her client, in line. As you read this message, think that this is coming from someone that went through a hellacious divorce riddled with stress and disbelief of a broken system with a sociopath on the other side. Alison was not only able to take control of a case spun out of control but also get me to refocus and tend to my own emotions. In other words, she sees the case from the broad view, controls every aspect of it and in the meantime, goes at the court like a starving lion ripping up a zebra limb by limb. She whipped the opposing party into shape and spun the court into a full 180 in favor of me and my situation. I am in control of my son's custody now, I made my way out of the divorce and she stewarded a deal palatable to me. In fact, she explained that despite more cost, she could have taken this to trial and won me even more equity to put me net up versus additional fees. In other words, she gave me all the options with fairness and only my best interests in mind. She listened to my side, she understood my plight and she ultimately worked to a settlement satisfying both parties and bringing the case to a quicker end while avoiding the potential of further frustrations of an actual trial. She was patient and walked me through all my options and assisted me in making the decision that was best for me. She is straight forward, she is tough, she is smart, she is a winner and she is fearless. She can take on any of the pathetic divorce lawyers out there. In my field, I have dealt with world class lawyers in corporate law, litigation, enforcement and securities law between New York City and Washington DC and I have to say that my opinion of divorce lawyers in general is somewhere below the frost line and dirt. They are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to law, to afraid to do something real in law other than prey of people in a high emotional state. My point, look at Alison's background. She operated as a prosecutor and a defense attorney for some seriously brutal clients, her teeth are sharp and her game is honed because she has not been a divorce lawyer for her whole career.
