You want an Excellent Lawyer? How about one who miraculously is not the typical sanctimonious extortionist sleezy type?

All right I normally do not write these things but in this case, its least i can do... Up until I became a single father I had never needed to try and find lawyer, let alone a good one... and the idea of having to go to court and fight that custody and support battle was overwhelming and scary. The f...irst few consultations with other council was extremely disheartening, most lawyers are slimey, and i wanted nothing to do with any of it.. luckily, I was discussing this very thing with a coworker buddy and he handed me Alan's card, and said call "call him, tell him i sent you"... I will never need or want another lawyer. long story short, Alan got me everything i asked for, he's one of the good ones, not out to get rich and rack up the billable hours...he's there to help. There is nothing worse than seeing good, hard-working everyday people get taken advantage of...Alan does something about it

I Highly Recommend

I was referred to Alan to take care of my divorce and child custody / support. He did a wonderful job representing me and making the whole process as easy and stress free as possible. Alan negotiated an agreement with my husband before we even walked into the courthouse. He truly cared about what was... best for our children. Thank you Alan for being so caring and always answering my question.

Great Attorney

I used Alan for my support/custody case - he knows his stuff and was always working in the best interests of me and my children making sure that we received everything we were entitled to. He made himself available for calls and questions and even came to court with me for future issues with the cas...e. I would highly recommend using him for any legal issues.

The best lawyer for all of your legal needs!

I used Alan for my divorce as well as subsequent cases for support and custody. When I first met him, I was nervous. After meeting him, I was confident. He got me a great settlement that greatly benefited the kids. Every time there is an issue with custody, support or expenses, Alan does a great ...job getting the judge or master to rule in our favor. In fact, one time, when my ex took us to court to lower the amount of support, Alan noticed things not reported before and we ended up having it increased by almost $200 per month. Alan is the best! You definitely want to use him! He is always available to talk even at night and weekends. Definitely call him for any legal needs!
