I honestly don’t know where my daughter and I would be today without Michael Alber and the incredible team at the Alber Firm. What started as a typical divorce/custody case rapidly turned into a four-year nightmare , high-conflict divorce and custody war filled with false allegations, repeated CPS... involvement, and fabricated criminal charges designed to destroy my life and my relationship with my daughter. Most attorneys would have buckled under the pressure or advised me to give up and settle for less. Michael never did. From day one, Michael and his staff were calm, strategic, and relentless. They left no stone unturned—every document, every witness, every inconsistent statement was meticulously prepared and presented. They fought for the truth when it felt like the entire system was stacked against me. Court appearance after court appearance, emergency hearing after emergency hearing, Michael was always the most prepared person in the room. Four years is an eternity when your children are on the line, but Michael and his team treated my case with the same urgency on day 1,460 as they did on day one. Due to the complexities of the case, I had the pleasure of working with Robert Northdurft and Jean Mercurio as well. Thank you for your invaluable help and support. The Alber Firm's compassion during the darkest moments kept me going, and their skill in the courtroom ultimately brought this nightmare to an end with the best possible outcome for my daughter and me. If you’re facing a truly contentious divorce or custody battle—especially one involving false accusations or CPS—hire the Alber Firm. He doesn’t just practice family law; he wages war for his clients and their families when everything is at stake. I will never be able to thank him or the entire Alber Firm's team enough, for giving me my life and my daughter back. Highest recommendation doesn’t even begin to cover it.

I had the privilege of being represented by Michael J. Alber in a criminal case, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to my case were truly outstanding. From start to finish, Michael handled every aspect with confidence and care, ensurin...g the best possible result. Thanks to his expertise, we achieved a stellar outcome. I highly recommend Michael J. Alber and his law firm to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation. There is no mystery why him and his firm are a go to firm. They are at the top for a reason. I have referred countless others to him and the firm and they all say the same. Not only are you a top lawyer but you gave me courtesies on billing that show how human you and your firm are. All in all, forever grateful and highly recommend Michael J. Alber And His Team

Wow... all I can say is WOW!!! I called Mr. Sklavos in the middle of the night after being pulled over. He gave me amazing advice that helped me walk out of the police station that very night. Him and his entire firm are top notch and above that they're amazing humans that will treat you better than... you'd imagine. I recommend them to anyone in need in the NY area. 10/10

I was hesitant I was scared I was uneducated with Michael Alber because I have never seen him perform live. Now after seeing him and how my previous attorneys handled my case I almost wish I hired Micheal Alber from day one. He is down to earth and has extensive knowledge and background not just... in family but criminal law. He knows how to probe witnesses and the like. If you’re stuck with your opponent, whether it be the DA or private Attny trying to pin you to the wall with false narratives, Micheal Alber has been my best choice yet. His bio matches his performance A+!
