Look no further

From the first consultation, I knew I would be in great hands with Andrea and her team. Everyone in the office was a pleasure to work with. They were professional, responsive, and truly invested in my case. Andrea took the time to understand my goals, explained each step clearly, and provided thought...ful guidance throughout what was a very stressful process. Thanks to her unmatched skills, preparation, and strategic approach, we were able to reach a settlement that aligned with what I was seeking. I always felt supported, heard, and confident knowing she was advocating for my best interests. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective family law attorney, this is someone you can absolutely trust. She is who you want by your side in a court room. Her knowledge is inspiring.

Philanthropist

Mrs. Friedman is a take no prisoners type of divorce attorney. I was never worried about my case because she was able to get the job done seamlessly. She is incredibly smart, knowledgeable and brilliant at her job. I am lucky to have worked with her.

Great Attorney!!!

Third times the charm...I had two lawyers before Andrea, and they could not hold a candle to Andrea's knowledge, professionalism and keeping her client in the loop on all matters. Andrea has a true passion for her profession. In court, I was so happy she was on my side. Her administrative staff an...d associate, Emily were wonderful to work with. Divorce is not easy and the process is overwhelming and frustrating, and time consuming, but Andrea kept me on track at all times. We had many court appearances, and Andrea was right there by my side always guiding and making sure things were handled properly. She is always prepared in court with her quick and detailed information. She was awesome! I felt so confident that I finally picked the attorney to help me cross the finish line, and we did! She answers all emails/calls and questions in a timely fashion. I always felt so comfortable talking with her and expressing my feelings, and she was always there to guide me along this stressful process. Andrea knows how to persevere through the challenging times with honest answers and with good judgement, and I was very fortunate for Andrea Friedman to be on my team. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a true advocate to get you through the divorce process. You are in great hands!

Fantastic Lawyer

Had a great experience working with Andrea. She helped me with a complex, inter-state family law issue and did so with great professionalism. She was the confident guide that I needed. There's a big difference between a decent lawyer and good lawyer. Andrea is the latter.

Posted by Matamoros | November 15, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

I only regret not finding Ms. Friedman sooner for prior matters

I worked with Ms. Friedman for almost a year on a complicated child support case. I have been dealing with family matters since 2018 and have had the representation of three different attorneys over the years. She is by far the most professional and knowledgeable attorney I have hired (and let me say..., I can be quite complicated and picky to the smallest detail). I consulted with 2 different attorneys and none of them felt comfortable with taking on my case, Ms. Friedman did with no hesitation and I am glad they led me to her. To be more specific the referral said she was: "A shark in family court" and did not lie. She definitely executed a good plan and delivered results as discussed upon hiring her representation. She stands very confident during hearings, straight to the point, tough on the opposition, always well prepared and extremely knowledgable in family matters. Ms. Friedman considers her client's needs and wants, it is not about her and what she can and cannot do. She listens, explains, answers questions, clears any confusion and then offers her professional advice. She is very honest and does not offer results she cannot deliver, a quality many attorneys lack. I have never been this pleased before and with no hesitation, if I needed to I will absolutely hire her again. Very thankful with her legal team and the professionalism kept all along the way.

"I endorse this lawyer. The best way to describe her style is relentless. Many lawyers believe that good advocacy is synonymous with being loud and attempting to push your adversary around. This is not the case with Ms. Friedman. No one will fight harder to accomplish the client's goal and she does so using her extensive knowledge of the law to successful craft winning legal arguments. Her passion and her tenacity with advocating for her client's goals is unparalleled."
