He has handled thousands of divorce cases and has appeared in every family courthouse in New York City and Long Island.


If you have a divorce or a family law issue, you should hire an attorney that has knowledge and courtroom experience and who will fight for your interests.
Having witnessed how lawyers create conflict instead of resolving matters, Mr. Louis dedicated his practice to helping his clients achieve their goals the way lawyers are meant to, which is by getting results as soon as possible.


What makes Akram Louis different than any other lawyer is that he looks to negotiate a favorable settlement immediately for his clients and resolve the case in his client’s interest instead of wasting his client’s hard-earned money on unnecessary legal fees. Some firms refuse to settle the divorce until all the retainer is used up. At The Louis Law Firm, Akram Louis will work on a case strategy with you and discuss goals on how to resolve your case as soon as possible so you get to keep your hard earned money.


Mr. Louis charges low flat-fee retainers instead of hourly rates on family court cases and uncontested divorces– so you can be rest assured there are no hidden charges or costly monthly bills. Some law firms charge up to $5,000 on simple uncontested divorces. Not at the Louis Law Firm. If your spouse obtains a lawyer and challenges the uncontested divorce, Mr. Louis only charges $500 to negotiate a settlement.


If you are going through a divorce or other family related issue, call the Louis Law Firm and schedule a strategy session on your case today.

Exceptional Attorney - The best I came across
I must say that is it very rare to find a lawyer that is so affordable yet is so caring and attentive and has attention to detail. Mr Louis fought for me diligently and accomplished results. His attention to detail Is unsurpassed. I definitely was impressed by his strategy as well as his communications with me. (Lots of lawyers just ignore you after retain them and pay their fee. Not Mr Louis - He always contacted me back asap and took the time to follow up and explain everything to me as well as being attentive. I will definitely refer him to anyone I know.

Exceptional presentation
Akram handled my case in family court. The objective was very clear and established during the strategy review session - find acceptable compromise for me and negotiate the proposal with the opposing party. He handled negotiations in a highly professional and productive manner. The issue was resolved to everyone’s satisfaction.

Best attorney
Akram Louis represented me on a child support case in family court. Prior to hiring Mr. Louis to go with me to court, I appeared by myself a couple of times but was not able to get an order of child support. The father of the child contested my income but Akram was a great negotiator and he was able to get me a great child support order and daycare expenses. I would definitely hire Mr. Louis again if I need to file for a modification of child support in the future. Thank you Mr. Louis for all your help.

Excellent Lawyer!
First of I would like to say I was very impressed with Akram Louis professionalism and knowledge. I first meet Akram when I had to go to court regarding child support, the first court case went very smoothly, but then I got served by my ex-husband so I had to go back to court, I immediately reached out to Akram, he walked me through all the paperwork etc. He also gave me all the possible scenarios of what may be the outcome on the day. Once again he went above and beyond and the overall outcome of the case was favorable. If you have a child support case I highly recommend you contact Akram Louis.

Job well done@
Words can't explain the satisfaction I feel today. I literally hired him 5 days before a hearing, including the weekend and a holiday and he showed up and delivered. I received the best results for my child. Very detailed, professional and intelligent. I strongly recommend for any child support case.
