Mr Gemelli - Best of the best

After mediation fell apart, I realized I needed a divorce lawyer. I interviewed many and all appeared impressive at first, telling me what I thought I wanted to hear. Then I met John Gemelli. He listened, and asked questions no one else had. He quickly applied his wisdom and vast experience, and ...he was honest. He didn’t waste my time, yet he was always available when I needed advice. Mr Gemelli kept every promise that he made. He succeeded in diffusing a volatile situation and simplifying all the complexities. I watched him talk my ex’s lawyer into agreement. In the end, we did not have to go to trial, and Mr Gemelli got me everything my son and I needed. The best decision I’ve ever made was hiring Mr Gemelli. He gave me back my life.

The BEST!

I can confidently say that Mr. Gemelli was the best choice as the lawyer for my divorce. He first and foremost is a caring and compassionate human being before being a confident and efficient lawyer—a true master of his trade. He always answered any and every question I had, and graciously provided m...e with his personal cell number for direct access. He confidently and flawlessly accomplishes his client’s desires and best interests in the court room. He is well loved and known by all, there isn’t a security guard, judge or staff member in the court that doesn’t know him on a close level and a favorable way. I am eternally grateful to John for the support and representation he provided me during the most difficult time in my life. Should you find yourself in a divorce, he’s definitely the man for the job!

When there is justice in the land, the wicked are terrified because they will face righteous judgement

Endorsements need be an important consideration when selecting the right attorney. I was a father of a 2 1/2 yr old girl when I first hired Mr. Gemelli as my attorney for my divorce. My now ex wife and her attorney's constructed false allegations against me which including domestic violence and sex...ual abuse against my daughter to obtain custody. I was in dyer need of an honorable man to believe in me and take on the challenges of my adversary with her three attorney's at trial. Mr. Gemelli informed me that the complaints are easily made but very difficult to disprove. However, his superior knowledge of the law, his belief of my innocence and in the interest of justice for me and my daughter, the court granted Sole Legal Custody to the father of the child. God Bless Mr. Gemelli and his legal staff!!

amazing

A lawyer's lawyer. The best! Tenacious and pugnacious. Pit bull -but only as necessary. John prosecuted my case, one of the most hotly contested cases in NY for over 10 years. Words can't convey my gratitude or describe the results. Technical knowledge, yes of course. Trial skills-beyond compare (a...nd I've seen a lot). Common sense, business acumen, intuitive and gut level common sense -check. Have a tough one...this is your man.

Thank You !

John Gemelli is a true class act; a man full of honesty and professionalism. Mr. Gemelli represented me in court due to an unfortunate series of events with my ex husband. Through out the entire process, Mr. Gemelli remained knowledgeable, empathetic, and professional. From Our first meeting, I knew ...that I can trust him. Through a series of 5 years with visiting the court room, he was the ONLY attorney who was able to represent me properly. Not only was I represented, I was also assured. I had a daily assurance that everything would be okay and with that, I was put at ease. His frankness, tenacity, and expertise is non comparable to any other attorneys I have ever dealt with. A good attorney hears your words, Mr. Gemelli understands them, and fights for what is set to be your rightful justice.- Zhanna
