This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Any parent facing a high-conflict custody battle would be fortunate to have him in their corner!

Jordan Trager represented me during one of the hardest periods of my life, and what stood out from the very beginning was how deeply he cared about my daughter. He didn’t treat my case like routine litigation. He treated it like a child’s future genuinely mattered, and he carried that responsibility ...with real heart and unwavering focus. The situation was complex, emotional, and exhausting, yet Jordan never lost his steadiness. He listened closely, understood the history, and fought for clarity and truth at every turn. He combined sharp legal skill with a human understanding that is rare in this field. I am grateful for his dedication, his professionalism, and the level of care he brought to a case that demanded far more than the usual attorney-client relationship. Any parent facing a high-conflict custody battle would be fortunate to have him in their corner. His compassion and commitment made an enormous difference.

Jordan Trager - A Champion Once Again!

As good as it gets the second time around with the prestigious firm of Wisselman, Harounian and Associates and my lawyer Jordan Trager. Fast forward five years from my divorce and I was met with a situation that was handled expeditiously, professionally, and with positive results. I would highly re...commend Jordan Trager to be your legal counsel if you choose this firm for your legal help.

Jordan is a compassionate and professional divorce lawyer!

Jordan has been representing me during my current divorce proceeding which is close to being finalized. Jordan is attentive, knowledgeable and we worked well together to develop a reasonable stipulation with my future ex-wife and her lawyer. He is also very knowledge of the Nassau County Divorce Cour...t System (e.g. judges, lawyers, procedures, etc.) which I believe was a benefit in my case. I would recommend Jordan to others who unfortunately, find themselves in need of a divorce lawyer.

Thank Goodness for Jordan

Jordan Trager and the rest of the staff did nothing short of save my life. They took a dire situation that had me in fear of losing my family and entire world and brought it to the best conclusion I could have hoped for. Jordan was attentive and knowledgeable while expertly knowing when to utilize a ...soft touch and when to get tough. Furthmore, I never met an attorney or a firm that put their client above their billable hours. Even the billing department was understanding and worked with me. Divorce and litigation is never something you want to go through, but if you do..... Jordan and his team are who you want behind you. My children and I are forever in his debt.
