The best matrimonial attorney there is!

Bridget Tartaglia is truly the cream of the crop when it comes to matrimonial attorneys. Being an attorney myself, I've have had many dealings with many different types of lawyers over the past decade, both positive and negative. Knowing Bridget's reputation in the legal community, together with nume...rous recommendations from other attorneys, I hired Bridget as a lawyer for myself. Because of this, I know from both professional AND personal experience there is absolutely no one more fair, ethical, knowledgeable, qualified, honest, or more highly respected in this field than Bridget. Bridget is the one attorney who has consistently proven that she choses to be in this field not only to aggressively advocate for her clients, but to do so compassionately, fairly, and honestly. She is a truly genius at what she does, and I could not have more respect for her if I tried. Getting a separation, divorce, or being involved in a custodial dispute is one of the most stressful things a person could ever go through. Having a pleasant, knowledgeable and strong attorney who you know will confidently advocate for you (without you having to worry that you are being overcharged or "ripped off"), is paramount to your financial -and emotional- well being. Bridget Tartaglia is an amazing person and a phenomenal attorney who with make you feel comfortable, and be your tough, yet classy and professional, legal advocate throughout the whole process.

Bridget Tartaglia Is Well Respected By Her Peers

Divorce is ugly business. I doubt any attorney can please every client. I believe to get the right person for you, you need to interview different attorneys. Bridget Tartaglia represented me for a devastating divorce 3 years ago. There were several unusual and difficult circumstances involved. P...rompt and assertive decisions were made at the outstart which favorably impacked my case. I can say that Bridget is thoroughly knowledgeable and also caring. She is professional without being arrogant. She worked very hard against an unethical, inflamatory opposition. Things worked out well and although it did take almost 2 years (because of my exhusband's attorney dragging it on), it could have gone on forever had I used someone with a combative personality. Without a doubt, Bridget did her very best for me and I will always be very appreciative.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
