Knowledgeable and reliable!

Nancy was overall a blessing for me and my family! Nancy was knowledgeable compassionate and a great communicator. Nancy helped me unravel a child support situation where I signed a divorce without an attorney or clear child support order. After over a year with no child support for my children, I sp...oke with Nancy. With her guidance I found the courage to take on the challenge. I am extremely grateful for her support and helping me fight for my family. I highly recommend Nancy! Thank you Nancy and Jeanette!

Posted by Nancy | June 24, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Wonderful to work with

After being completely blindsided with custody papers over my daughter and having only 3 days to retain legal counsel, I met with Nancy Kellman and immediately felt at ease. She listened to my entire situation and reassured me that I wasn't going to lose custody. She went through the entire process s...tep by step, from what questions would be asked of me, paperwork/documents that were needed from me, to which side of the court room we would be seated and what seat was mine. Her or her staff were always available when needed. She is incredibly knowledgable and everything she said would happen, did. She answered every one of my questions and I had lists upon lists of them. When some outrageous demands were made during our custody case, she didn't take any crap and fought for what was right and what was fair. She made a very difficult and stressful situation as smooth and easy as possible. She gave wonderful suggestions that I would never think of and in the end I was very satisfied with the outcome of my cases. It was very clear that Nancy was looking out for the wellbeing of my daughter and to make things better for her in the long run. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs family law representation. She is amazing.

Exceptional representation

I used Nancy for a collaborative divorce a few years ago and she was an excellent, highly experienced lawyer who handled my case with competency and compassion. I was very pleased with my outcome. I have needed to contact her post divorce for a few issues and she has continued to help me as needed. I... would definitely recommend Nancy to anyone who needs a good lawyer in a divorce.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse Ms Kellman. I worked with her & her staff as opposing counsel on a contested divorce. She & her staff were not only very competent, but also very accommodating - despite respective clients who were "at war" with each other. Persons with Divorce & Family Law cases in Westchester & vicinity will be well-served by hiring her."
