Captain of the Ship

Greg was the captain of the ship through a stormy, traumatizing divorce and custody case. Through all the trials and tribulations we faced, Greg always steered accurately toward clear skies. He knew what moves to make and when. Several of his recommendations significantly changed the tide of how t...hings unfolded. He is very experienced, professional, confident and works for his clients as if the case were his own. He knows his client's cases thoroughly, having sharp clarity about the details of where we've been and where we are going. He has a strong rapport with fellow attorneys, judges and other professionals in the family court arena. While other attorneys drag things out to drain your financial resources, Greg has your best interest at heart and will do whatever it takes to resolve the case expediently. Needless to say, we were victorious!

Excellent Competent and Ethical Legal Counsel

I engaged Mr. Salant as my lawyer for multiple family court related proceedings over several years principally related to custody, visitation and child support financial issues. Mr. Salant, in the context of very challenging circumstances, always effectively and aggressively defended me, was always e...thical in his representations, was always informed regarding legal issues at hand and was balanced in his approach with the courts and my adversary.

Attorneys Who are Professional and Results Oriented

I highly recommend Harold, Salant, Strassfield & Spielberg. They are truly professional and results oriented. Thank you so much for helping me get my children back into my life. I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for me!

Thank you for your representation

My ex-husband petitioned the court for custody of our two children, along with contempt charges. His grounds were Parent Alienation. I sat in the court room without means to defend myself. The judge assigned Mr. Salant to my case. It is two years later and Mr. Salant was a god sent. He was extre...mely professional and was spot on in the court room. In the end justice prevailed and Mr. Salant completed the litigation with a positive outcome. I was extremely happy with the results.

Protected my relationship with my daugther

Greg was my lawyer in an extremely difficult divorce case. My ex-wife made false claims that I was a heavy drinker in an attempt to deny me equal custody of my daughter. She also made several other false claims about me not being a good parent. Then she tried to cheat me out of tens of thousands o...f dollars. Greg was able to block all of these attempts. He was very calm and responsive throughout the process. In addition, he was extremely fair about the billing- I got charged less than half of what my ex-wife's lawyer charged her. He was also honest about what was worth going to court over and what wasn't- he helped me get to a negotiated settlement even though he would have made a lot more if the case had gone to court. I now have shared custody of my daughter and was protected financially. His paralegal Charlene is great too. I highly recommend Greg.
