Practice Areas

Child Custody 20%

Our clients do not want custody, they need it. People who hire us demand the best. Custody is based on the best interest of the child or children. Our attorneys' goal is to argue your case to show the judge that you are the best parent. Judges do not live with the parties and have no idea as to who is the best parent; we must demonstrate that you are the best parent. We know how to present your case and admit evidence to court showing that custody should be with you.

20%
Child Support 20%

Among the many financial issues to be decided in a divorce or separation, child and spousal support are perhaps the most critical. Your divorce should not leave you incapable of caring for yourself or your children, nor should divorce require you to pay excessively. There are many unique and creative ways to deal with child and spousal support. We provide you with our experience and our advice as to child support. We fully understand the laws and options governing child support.

20%
Divorce and Separation 20%

Agreements, orders, settlements, and/or judgments made in your divorce will affect your life more than you can imagine. It is imperative that you hire the right attorney, one who is highly skilled in Divorce and Family Law and who is experienced and aggressive. We are aggressive, and we will work hard for you. If you need to win, you need tough attorneys who handle only divorce and family law cases. Hire our team of highly skilled trial lawyers.

20%
Marriage and Prenuptials 20%

The need for pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements becomes increasingly important as people’s economic circumstances grow more complex. It is prudent that certain kinds of property acquired before and after a marriage be identified and their potential future disposition clearly agreed to. This helps avoid litigation in the event of a divorce. Our firm’s experience in pre and post nuptial agreements is extensive and personal.

20%
Mediation 20%

Even though we are well-known for our aggressive litigation tactics, we also provide mediation services, and we offer our services to clients who seek separation and/or prenuptial agreements. We not only go over the numbers with you, talk to you about the law, review the facts with you, and discuss your children with you; we always get the job done. What this means is that we provide you with the agreement and the judgment of divorce.

review for this law firm

I recommend this law firm, they are very honest they do not take advantage of your money. I am very pleased with the outcome it really worked out in favor for my child - Linda , mom of a precious little boy with special needs.

Excellent Law Firm!

Bryan L Salamone Esq and his associate Melody Maher Esq provided me with unsurpassable legal services in Famiky Court. They were extremely knowledgeable , always available, and were able to navigate easily through the court. I received correct legal advice, service and support through this time. Br...avo to attorneys Bryan L Salamone and Melody Maher, I highly recommend the firm.

Superb! Fantastic! ONE of a kind!

I retained this lawyer after leaving my former lawyer who was awful. Bryan, Melissa and his whole team have treated me with such respect and ever got my entire retainer back from my former lawyer who did nothing on my behalf. And, this was only after 3 days of retaining them. They are beyond wonde...rful. I would recommend them in a heart beat. I pray anyone who is going through a difficult divorce to retain them immediately!!! They are simply ALL wonderful!!!!

Great Representation!

I can't recommend Bryan and his team enough. Their aggressive representation saved me from the horror of losing custody of my kids, my wife's lawyer didn't know what hit them. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful at all times and made the hardest time in my life as stress-free as it could pos...sibly be. These are the guys you want in your corner.

Greatese Matrimonial Attorney Available

I had the opportunity to hire Bryan Salamone for my divorce. I couldn't be more impressed. He was professional, curteous and most importantly, a shark in the courtroom. I was able to win on every point. I would highly reccomend his office. Scott Gross also work on the case. He is a rising star, s...oon to be the best in the business.
