Divorce

Mr. Cali was referred to me by my neighbor whose wife had retained him to represent her in their divorce. I retained Mr. Cali after three other attorneys I had contacted previously advised me that it would be difficult if not impossible to retain my farm in a Divorce. Mr. Cali always listened c...arefully, and through his professionalism, skill and knowledge of the law guided me through my difficult divorce, even when emotionally I was falling apart, Mr. Cali and his team managed to fill me with confidence that I was in the most competent hands and that they would ensure the best possible results. I cannot thank Mr. Cali and his team enough for the outcome that exceeded my expectations, they have successfully given me my life back, along with my farm and my inheritance that is now secure for future generations. I recently met my now ex husband at our granddaughters christening, he politely congratulated me on the divorce and added, “your attorney chewed mine up and spat him out, he always seemed to have my attorneys head spinning” Mr. Cali will forever have my gratitude and respect. Anyone needing council should have Mr. Cali in their corner.

Brian and his team are extremely responsive, patient, and thorough. They are a group that I would feel very comfortable standing next to in a courtroom.

Testimony

Brian j Cali was the best attorney for me. His expertise, and legal team were extremely pro active in resolving my divorce with an extremely fair outcome. It was a pleasure having Brian and his team watching my back. I continue to use them in other legal matters.

Peter J Bonacuse

I interviewed multiple lawyers prior to hiring Brian Cali. I hired Brian because he came across as confident and a winner. He is driven, quick and witty. I explained my situation to him. I thought it was unique and turned out It wasn’t. He wasn’t surprised at anything I told him. Answered my question...s directly wasn’t vague at all. He told me he was going to help me. I needed to hear that. (Because I had these feelings of impending doom like I was gonna lose everything I worked for.) I didn’t hear that from anybody else I interviewed. I truly wish I used Brian 30 years ago. I think I would’ve been in a much better position in life for it today and Would’ve gotten divorced 10 years ago LOL!! So I’m very comfortable in sharing that Brian Cali and associates will be my attorneys for the rest of my life. For all my legal needs. Their office is a smooth running machine. They have documents ready in a timely fashion. Are very Friendly and informative. They make a person feel comfortable. So if you’re looking for a lawyer higher this one he’s a winner !!

Adrienne was beyond helpful!

We used Brian John Cali and Associates for our home closing and could not be happier. Adrienne was our lawyer and she was extremely knowledgeable and worked diligently to make sure the process was as simple as possible for us. We are so happy and glad we chose to use this firm they allowed us to be s...tress-free throughout this daunting process!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
