Exceptional Divorce Lawyer

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Simonetti during a challenging divorce process, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of professionalism provided. If you find yourself in need of a divorce lawyer who combines legal expertise with empathy, I highly recommend Louis Simonetti. I am g...rateful for his support during a difficult time and confident in recommending his services to others in a similar situation.

Professional Honest Ethical

When it comes to Matrimonial law Simonetti and Associates is your place to go. Their wealth of knowledge is extremely impressive, always there when you need them, and on top they also understand the emotional position your in. In fact, I can personally attest to Lou Simonetti trying to get couples b...ack together, which would result in their firm losing a client!! That said, having a firm that understands the emotional side, legal side and works for your best interests with incredible connections and expertise is a rare find.

Really cares about you

I needed a prenuptial agreement and Lou Simonetti was intelligent and helpful through the process. He helped me negotiate what I felt was fair and put my mind at ease. Thank you!

More than pleased and appreciative!

I could not be any happier with Lou representing me! Going through a divorce is tough enough but at the end, I felt that my interests and my assets were protected! My case went all the way to a trial and Lou could not have been more prepared. In the courtroom, he was confident and calm but also tough... when the situation called for it. From the beginning of my case to the end, Lou was honest and right in what he thought the outcome would be. As I sat in court, I was very pleased and confident that I had the right lawyer representing me!

He's number 1

After interviewing other divorce attorneys, I decided to work with Lou on what I knew was going to be an extremely challenging and emotionally draining divorce. Lou and his partner, Charlotte Betts, were patient, diligent, thorough, compassionate, and always listened to what I needed them to hear. T...hey provided valuable expertise and guidance which I needed in order to make difficult decisions. They worked hard for me and in the end obtained the best possible settlement. A tireless advocate for his clients, Lou is among the best in his field, with what it takes to get the job done. Additionally, he could not have been more fair with the billing....even refunded the balance of my retainer at the conclusion of my case. I have recommended Simonetti and Assoc. to my family members.
