I am a single parent "Black" father to my 12 year old son that I have taken care of his entire life, that is one week after he was born all but one month and for that one month my son was taken from me and given to his biological mother to whom he had basically no contact with by another Court in another state. Needless to say I have had very little trust or faith in the legal system because of this. I am a teacher who does not make a lot of money so I was appointed Council by the court. I was pessimistic but soon changed my mind after meeting with my attorney Jared Derosso. I originally thought because of my past experience this would be an attorney who didn't care, who wanted to get in and out, this was definitely not the case! I received nothing but sound Council from Mr. Derosso and The Firm he represents I am truly grateful, so I can only say
Thank you, thank you, thank you, this is the way people should be represented.
Jared is very helpful, I appreciate his determination, courage, resilience, analytical skills and hard work above all he’s so compassionate. I’m blown away by his integrity. I will always be grateful for all his effort on my case.
THANKS SO MUCH JARED! I’m so grateful
Jared DeRosso focuses his practice primarily on divorce and other family law matters. Working out of the firm's office in New City, New York, he provides representation to clients throughout Rockland County and the surrounding Hudson Valley. Mr. DeRosso has been admitted to practice before all New York state courts since 2013.
A significant portion of Mr. DeRosso's client base is made up of area residents who are seeing their marriages come to an end and who are thus having to deal with such divorce-related issues as the division of complex assets and debts, child custody and visitation, alimony and child support. A forceful courtroom advocate for his clients when litigation is necessary, he often helps them avoid the stress and uncertainty of a trial by encouraging them to come to an accord on these issues through the negotiation of a settlement agreement. For his clients whose marriages have already been dissolved, Mr. DeRosso appears with them in court when they are seeking the enforcement of or modifications to existing parenting and support orders, and for those who are considering getting married, he prepares and reviews prenuptial agreements.
Mr. DeRosso's successful track record and high degree of ethics in handling what are often emotional and contentious issues have earned him the respect of his colleagues, including a "Superb" peer review rating through Avvo. He has also been named as a Super Lawyers Rising Star Honoree in the New York Metro Area, a Lawyers of Distinction Honoree for Excellence in Family and Divorce Law, a Top 10 Best Attorneys for Client Satisfaction by the American Institute of Family Law Attorneys, and one of the Top 10 Family Law Attorneys Under Age 40 by the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys. A 2012 graduate of Albany Law School, Mr. DeRosso's professional affiliations include the Columbian Lawyers Society of Rockland County and the Rockland County Bar Association.

Fantastic Lawyer
Jared went above and beyond for me being a court appointed lawyer. I consider myself lucky for having him represent me. My spouse paid for representation from a lawyer who has many more years in the business and Jared was by far a better lawyer. Jared is very knowledgeable, honest, and Down to Earth. I highly recommend his services

Jared handled my separation in family court. He was fantastic! He was always easy to get in touch with and prompt with getting things done. He was genuine and sympathetic. I was truly blessed to have him. Needless to say I walked away with all that I asked for.
