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.

Bryan L. Salamone and Associates

I met with Bryan concerning a complicated divorce. Bryan and his associates were tough and worked hard to get me the best settlement possible. They are very knowledgeable in family law, but more importantly they always return my phonecalls the same day unlike other attorneys offices. All my concerns ...were completely addressed, and everyone at the firm treated me with respect.

Best around hands down!

I'm not a person who shops around for rates, especially for things of importance such as this. With that said Bryan L Salamone's firm are amongst the most reasonable rates on the island. Now here is why that doesn't even matter. This firm has to be one of the most organized, well informed, and up to ...date on everything they do. They are always prompt on the phone and in the office. That said, this firm has fought hard for me when I thought that there was no one left in the world on my side. I will save the details of the heartbreak I have been through, but these guys did the best they could for me and fought like it was their own children. This is not something I could repay them for even in money.

Wonderful!

This firm has done so much for me. I'm very private so I won't go into much detail, but I do believe they deserve a few minutes of my time to spread the word! They made the best out of what I thought would be an uphill battle.They are aggressive in the courtroom but patient and caring where it counts.... Do yourself a favor, do your family a favor use these guys.

Great

Meeting and having Mr. Salamone and his team of lawyers represent me during my divorce was the best decision I have made after meeting various lawyers. They have advised me every step of the way, and actually saved me from making decisions that would hurt me in the end. I can't recommend this attor...ney enough. Aggressive.... YES!

The Best of the Best

I am a stay at home mother of three children who recently went through an extremely painful divorce. My previous attorney was doing nothing to help my case. I met Mr. Salamone and knew instantaneously that I would be represented zealously and aggressively. The staff and the associates were always ...extremely helpful and compassionate to my situation at all times. Mr. Salamone not only settled my case, but it is because of him that myself and my children are protected and provided for. I highly recommend this firm to anyone going through divorce.
