Todd Adam Spivak

Our family hired Attorney Spivak when our daughter's life became a legal train wreck. The expanse of topics on Family Law and Criminal Law on Attorney Spivak's website (written by him) provided our family with the information that we needed to make an informed decision in hiring an attorney. Listenin...g to our case and the criminal charge brought against our daughter (in our meeting with him), Attorney Spivak explained the charge and the possible consequences. The situation appeared bleak to us but Attorney Spivak was always available via phone or email. He responds promptly. The integrity of his character always provided us with a compassionate ear as well as the reality of the charge brought against our daughter. He phoned my daughter the day before she moved from the household that created the problem, reinforcing that my daughter was not alone in her legal battle. Attorney Spivak is fully aware of the difficult situations his clients are go through and he is there to support them. The day of the Magistrate's hearing was the scariest day of our lives. As our daughter was offered a lesser charge, Attorney Spivak's sense of justice was evident in that his judicial conviction was that our daughter should not only have a good outcome, but that she should have the best outcome. Most importantly, Attorney Spivak presented the choice to our daughter so that she could factor the effect of the offer into her life. However, Attorney's Spivak's commitment to justice is not merely in his law degree but also his deep conviction of what justice is for the individual within the context of the situation. Attorney Spivak further argued for a dismissal of the charge which he won. The ability for the DA to accept Spivak's argument reflects the respect that the DA's office has his practice of the law. Attorney Spivak not only demonstrates his expertise in his practice of law but also his genuine conviction in working diligently and compassionately for justice for his clients. Our family was vey fortunate because we think we had the Best Lawyer that we could have. Judicial expertise, integrity, and compassionate understanding make Attorney Todd Spivak the "Must Have Lawyer."

Todd helped me handle an abrupt devasting situation with the highest level of professionalism. I was served, without warning, with a fabricated bogus PFA. I'm in law enforcement and a PFA has the possibility of destroying my career. I also have two small children and the amount of stress I was under ...from the PFA was unbelievable. I emailed Todd late Fri night and he called me back early SATURDAY morning. I explained my case and the allegations. He did request most of the fee upfront, but it was reasonable and worth the cost. I met with him at his office and went over the entire PFA. He was calm, knowledgable, and detailed about everything. He gave me hope and relieved a lot of my stress. On the hearing date he was able to get the PFA withdrawn and vacated without even going into a hearing. He worked diligintly ton negotiate terms on a private agreement with my ex-wife. He caught several cruel demands that her and her lawyer tried to sneak in. I was able to leave feeling like we had the best possible outcome. He even called my Police Chief to assure him that the PFA system was abused by my Ex-wife and that I was not guilty of any misconduct. I would recommend him to anyone needing some one to trust when it seems your whole world is falling apart.

Todd was extremely helpful in getting my case resolved in a timely manner. He is experienced, thorough, and extremely well connected in the legal community. I was very impressed with his level of commitment to my case in addition to his knowledge and professional compassion. I couldn't be more satisf...ied with the services he provided and the outcome he achieved. I would HIGHLY recommend Todd Spivak.

After a person, which I cared deeply about, filed bogus police reports and a PFA I was out of my home feeling like I had no rights. It's hard enough trying to understand what just happened let alone who to call or who to trust. I'm a big guy and that was being used against me even though I had no ...priors, I was not arrested the evening of this supposed incident, I left the home voluntarily etc. It's hard for people to understand how after so long in a relationship things can go so bad quickly and you are out looking in. The laws need to change in this area of practice because you really are guilty until proven innocent if you are accused of harassment or physical violence even if there is no evidence or proof. Once finding Mr. Spivak's website and contacting him I knew immediately by his demeanor over the phone that this may the level of competence I was seeking. I provided Mr. Spivak with all documentation I received including the police report for him to review and he asked me to explain the events of the evening in question. After reviewing the case he stated his fees and we proceeded to the PFA hearing. The case was dismissed due to a lack of evidence. We also had a Magisterial Hearing which went good as well. I provided Mr. Spivak with as much information as I could and I think the facts spoke loud and clear. It was and still is a confusing time just trying to understand how things can go so wrong but so far Mr. Spivak has been solid. He has communicated in a clear and professional manner and listens to your concerns and answers any questions you may have. I feel extremely comfortable recommending Mr. Spivak to anybody who may need to confront a similar issue.
