Great Experience

Had the unfortunate circumstance whereby I needed the services of a quality divorce firm. I initially met with a highly regarded Manhattan firm. There I ended up being "handled" by a series of junior associates that billed at senior level Manhattan rates yet provided basic service. I was referred ...to Simonetti and Associates. I was more than pleasantly surprised with the firms boutique feel, senior level attention, and insight from the principle and his very experienced team. Lou S responded to each and every one of my questions and details as if I were his/their only client. i probably drove him a bit crazy with all of my calls and scenarios - but each and every time he provided great advice and guidance. Although the process of divorce is not one I would recommend, in the end Simonetti and Associates was a trusted advisor and fair partner that helped me navigate these confusing and at times emotional waters. In a word - they were GREAT! I know quite a bit about law firms through my business dealings. Simonetti and Associates is a very strong firm with very specific expertise in this area.

Great experience

Went to simonetti & associates after a bad experience at another firm. Lou and his staff were very attentive to my case, answering all my questions about the divorce process and direction of my case. Lou, Charlotte, Tim, and the entire staff were very helpful returning emails, calls and text at all h...ours of the day. I appreciate the hard work and dedication they put into my case, resolving it as quickly as possible. It was a stressful time, but i got through it thanks to Lou and the rest of Simonetti & associates. Thank you

Thank you!

Lou was really great dealing with my divorce. He was especially responsive to the concerns I had about how the divorce would affect my kids. As a family man himself, he went above and beyond to make sure that my relationship with them remained strong. There's no doubt that the effort he put in during... that trying time of my life has allowed my relationship with my kids today to be a very good one. Thanks for everything Lou!
