The BEST!

Frank Urso is an amazing attorney. I met with him in August 2021 and explained my situation. I do not trust people easily and he eased my fears in the whole process from the start. He always did what he said he would. He told me what I could do or was entitled to but always left it up to me to ma...ke the final decision. When I would change my mind about something, Frank would always make the necessary adjustments/corrections in the paperwork without any issues. He was extremely patient with me. I asked a lot of questions and needed more reassurance at times than most people would. He never made me feel bad or stupid for asking anything. When he told me not to worry about something, I learned quickly that I truly didn't need to worry. When I would call, his office staff were always extremely helpful and equally as reassuring. From start to finish my divorce was finalized in under 13 months. In that time, he had to go to court over 10 times with me or on my behalf. He acted very quickly in getting court dates and times scheduled. The cost of using Frank Urso's services was considerably less than what I expected. He was very fair in his charges and always told me what I could do on my own to reduce my costs to him. I highly recommend Frank Urso to anyone needing an attorney for divorce and/or child custody and support. He is definitely the best!

Great Lawyer !

Family law is a sensitive subject and personally disclosing difficult and delicate situations that have steered you to divorce is unconfutable. While experiencing emotional, physical and financial distress it’s extremely challenging to focus clearly and make the correct decisions. That, in addition t...o not fully understanding a legal process complicates matters. Thankfully, I was fortunate to have Mr. Frank Urso as my representation. He explained the law in detail, while outlining the process making it very clear what to expect next. Providing Pros & Cons to all approaches and the possible outcomes. Frank is consistent and responsive; I was always able to receive an answer within an appropriate timeframe. He was reassuring, articulate, knowable and effective. Personally the divorce was very painful and emotional, Frank along with his assistant remained very calm and tenderly. They guided me through the agonizing process of divorce. Frank’s guidance and support made it so much easier and gave me peace of mind, during a stressful event in my life. Not only was my divorce handled correctly and fast, Frank was graceful in discussions recognizing how distraught and disappointed the topic made me feel. Lisa Stone his Paralegal was always through and organized and easy to coordinate with while completing task for my case. Frank Urso was selected on recommendation from a trusted friend and was some of the " Finest " advice I have ever received. This law firm excellent reputation lived up to its many rave reviews and recommendation and did not disappoint. Hire Frank and his Team you will not be disappointed!!

Glad Frank got screwed by Danyelle

How does it feel that Danyelle screwed you out of thousands of dollars? Screwed the children out of their father. Have you checked how well it is going for the kids?

St. Francis

I had previous legal counselors to help me with my especially, and seemingly, uphill custody battle. I say battle because it went on for SIX years before I met with Mr. Urso. My son's father held all the cards (no vacations, no holidays, if I was late I didn't get my son). The final straw was when my... ex tried to officially cut me off and out of our child's life. My ex used his well-connected resources to cocoon and paint himself as a loving and doting father, and I the picture of evil. My case was particular because of heinous and unfounded accusations. Borderline slanderous. None of it true, but I couldn't get anyone to be an advocate, not just on my behalf, but for both of my sons (the accusations are too horrid to share), and to wholeheartedly believe the injury to innocence inflicted. Upon meeting Mr. Urso, he invited me in, to sit, and explain my situation. He patiently listened to me through my outpouring, only asking clarifying questions, is what I say true and could I provide documents, to which I assured him absolutely. When he agreed to take on my case, he said it with such strength of character I began to have hope. This was my best and last effort to keep myself in my son's life. Mr. Urso was professional in his precision. Carefully and methodically peeling every layer of lie and deceit my son's father crafted, then let my ex fall upon his own sword of undoing. I have to admit, after years of constant abuse from my ex, it felt nice. I felt that both my sons were vindicated. That I was finally, FINALLY able to give my children the full and total support and love they so needed, wanted and richly deserved. I am so grateful, every single day that I have, to this man for literally saving my family. I hope these words fill you with the same happy joy that I receive from seeing my children's smiles every morning together.
