Experienced and informed.
I've met with Joe Soffer several times and he always had great advice on how to handle every aspect of the divorce process.

Mr. Soffer did an exceptional job with my divorce case. His knowledge, support and compassion were extraordinary. He took the time to hear all of my concerns and always made himself readily available, returning all of my calls and emails promptly. Working with Mr. Soffer was incredibly easy and th...

I was given Mr. Soffer's name from a friend who used his services and was extremely pleased and satisfied with the outcome of her divorce case. I contacted him for a consult for my friend who was too distraught to take this first step herself. Joe was patient, kind, informative and gave extremely go...

Worst, Worst, Worst
I lost my case because of Joseph's negligence. He is also very aggressive and rude in court and it backfired on me. Judges don't like that. Joseph was not able to remember many important facts about my case from one court date to the next. He did not come in prepared. He refused to include crucial ev...
You and I had numerous face to face meetings, telephone conferences and e-mail exchanges. I was always prepared for your case and courteous to you as well as everyone involved in your case and no one had any complaints about my actions on your behalf. Moreover you acted on your own without even advising me of your intentions which is what really turned the Court against you as evidenced by the stern warnings the Judge gave you in Court on the last day that I appeared with you. As stated, you did things without discussing them with me first. You had your family members picketing outside of the courthouse with signs insulting the judge. You filed a 120 page motion without submitting any facts at all to support your claims and you attempted to serve all of the attorneys with papers at their homes at night putting the papers in gift bags so as to intimidate them when the judge had allowed you to serve them via email. You’re motion resulted in another attorney being discharged from the case which caused a further delay of your case so a new attorney could be appointed. You did not consult me once nor did you even give me a hint as to your plans. And you have the nerve to blame me? This besides the fact that you broke three different financial arrangements with me and still owe me an exorbitant amount of attorney’s fees. I did everything possible to help you but your refusal to follow my advice along with your self-defeating actions all caused your motion to be denied and resulted in the Court ruling against you. As much as you would like to blame someone else you need only look in the mirror to see who lost your case for you. I wish you the best of luck.
