Excellent Legal Help – Fast and Professional!

I recently worked with Brandon Rothstein to handle a speeding ticket, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. He was professional, communicative, and made the entire process stress-free. He explained my options clearly and worked quickly to get the best possible outcome. I highly recomm...end Brandon Rothstein for anyone in need of legal assistance.

Excellent Lawyer

Brandon has been a beacon of support during one of the most challenging periods of my life – my divorce and custody battle. From the outset, he demonstrated unwavering dedication, ensuring my concerns were heard and addressed. Brandon's attentiveness and genuine listening skills set him apart. In ...the midst of the divorce proceedings, Brandon skillfully navigated the legal complexities, ultimately securing a settlement in my favor. His expertise and commitment were evident at every stage, providing me with the assurance and confidence needed during such a trying time. Currently facing custody issues, there was never a doubt in my mind about returning to Brandon for legal representation. His track record and personalized approach make him the go-to advocate for my case. I trust that Brandon will once again prevail, thanks to his proficiency, empathy, and steadfast commitment to his clients. I am immensely grateful for his support and highly recommend Brandon for anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate divorce attorney.

Ignorant Divorce

Brandon's communication through my divorce was exceptional. His no nonsense straight to the point approach, negotiated an amazing deal with my exwifes attorney. He got me everything I was asking for and more. After the divorce was finalized, he continued consulting me until my wife left the home. ... I've recommended Brandon to a few people already. A true man's man with the utmost integrity.

Complex child custody, fathers rights

Brandon fought tirelessly for our family in a complex case that felt like the odds were stacked against us. He was able to achieve the best outcome for the well being of our children and family. Highly recommend without a doubt.

"I endorse this lawyer. Brandon worked for 1 year for a highly qualified lawyer, who became a Supreme Court Judge. He has worked for Kantrowitz , Goldhamer & Graifman , one of the largest firms in Rockland & Bergen County for two years. At our firm, associates work no less than 10 hours per day & often on weekends. As a result he is head & shoulders ahead of lawyers practicing 5 years in practical skill & knowledge.

He is a huge addition to our team & serves each & every client well. Every client who works with him is more than pleased he was assigned to their case."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
