I highly recommend Randi as a divorce attorney, particularly if your situation is complex. I am now 10 years post-divorce and having been exposed to a number of attorneys in Chester County I can say confidently that Randi is the best. She is well connected within the system - know's all the stakeholders personally - and understands the law and the implications on her clients situation, regardless of how complex. As a highly compensated person with multiple children, and one with special needs, I depended on Randi's counsel through complex support and custody matters, including guardianship. Her knowledge and creativity in finding and fighting for the best solutions for her client are second-to-none.
It's been a constant struggle with my son's mother, before acquiring Randi J. Vladimer as my attorney i had no chance to show the courts the stress she was causing for me and my wife. Randi and her team have helped me exercise my rights as a father and legally they have put me in a position to ultimately give my son the best life possible. My case is an international custody case i live in Switzerland and my son's mother lives in Pennsylvania, these type of cases are very complex because we are dealing with a different set of laws and rules for each country. The complexity has not stopped Randi and her team from being great and ensuring I get a fair shot at taking care of my child.
My wife and i now view her as a family member because she will be my attorney as a long as she is practicing.
I highly recommend Randi !

The Perfect Balance
While the actual divorce was rather quiet, Randi was the key factor in keeping everything calm. She understood the nuances of the law, she quickly resolved issues in ways that were fair, and she helped me cope with a very difficult but very necessary process. Randi advocated for me with an appropriate fierceness that made me confident. She behaved in a most professional way as we worked through child support and division of assets. It was clear, as I watched her interact with the Masters and with the support staff at the Court House, that she was highly regarded and well respected. I appreciated her thorough preparation and careful organization throughout each step of the process.
I hired Randi knowing that she was an excellent attorney. She lived up to her reputation in every way.

Tough no-nonsense lawyer who will fight for you
We had a complex and contentious divorce with child custody and a business separation. Randi is compassionate and truly cares for her clients. She is an expert in the law and has good relationships with other attorneys and professionals who helped resolve business and custody issues. She is an excellent litigator and is able to think on her feet to get the best result.

Exceptional
Randi and her team were referred to me by a Chester County lawyer in a very concerning Emergency Custody Hearing of my granddaughters. Randi went over and above, reaching out to anyone who had any knowledge of the history of the defendant to present a compelling case to the judge. Randi provided me with exceptional advice, and with her expertise and knowledge I now have full custody of my granddaughters. She has greatly assisted in changing the course of history for these two little girls. I will never be able to thank her and Alison Maher enough!

A caring and superb attorney
Randi is an amazing attorney. There are no words that can describe my gratitude to Randi for her professionalism, expertise, work ethic and candor. Since our first meeting, Randi made me feel that I was her number one and only client. Throughout the process, Randi was very candid with me as to various strategies and outcomes. She gave me great advice and inspiration. Randi is reliable, trustworthy, and very detailed oriented. I feel blessed that I was referred to Randi and would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or custody case.

A lawyer to lean on
Divorce is a horrible event, a legal battle as well an emotional war. I was going through a never ending divorce which dragged for several years and several lawyers with no end on sight.
That’s when Randi was recommended to me. A no nonsense lawyer who truly stood up for me and with me. An expert in family law who is firm but fair. She got the job done in a few months.
I’m for ever thankful for her great service and strongly recommended her.

Excellent representation
I switched attorneys twice before finding Randi. She was the most honest and straightforward divorce attorney of all three. Her demeanor and temperament are highly professional, and the Judge and opposing attorney had the utmost respect for her. I had the highest confidence in her and would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends and family if necessary.

Ethical and No Nonsense
If you are looking for someone who will tell you what you want to hear and not what the law is, do not go to Randi. Randi is no-nonsense, direct, insightful and ethical. She wa always prepared for our meetings and for court. The Masters and judges seemed to really respect her. Randi made the process a lot easier than it could have been.

A true professional!
I interviewed three attorneys before selecting Randi and her team and could not have been happier with my selection. My ex fought me through everything, support, custody and the divorce. Randi was able to contain the other side and plow through it. Her attention to me and the case was incredible. She even remembered things that I told her a year before that I had forgotten. I was always well informed and knew what to expect. I always felt that she cares about what she does and her clients. Her team is equally as good, always there to answer questions if Randi was unavailable. The dogs always welcomed me as well!

A great lawyer for a difficult time
I went through a very complicated divorce and custody case and Randi was my attorney. She was great. She was extremely responsive, very patient, and led me every step of the way. Although we ended up settling the day of trial, I think the only reason we did was because she was so prepared for court. She outshined my spouse's attorney. Everyone in the court knew her and it was clear they all respected her.

Randi Wins
Randi J. Vladimer, Esq. successfully won a great financial settlement for me! Randi was my 3rd divorce attorney and the only one who vigorously fought on my behalf. The first 2 attorneys were intimidated by me ex who is an attorney. She understood how to present a case in court, with documentation, knowledge of my case, intelligence, and witnesses. Randi goes above and beyond to ensure a positive result. Randi is the only divorce attorney anyone should use.
Also, she has the cutest dogs at her office, very lovable with their kisses.

Well worth the money
Randi knows divorce inside and out. She walked circles around my ex's attorney. She is both strategic and practical and has excellent relationships in the area, from folks at the courthouse to child psychologists. I am extremely pleased with her results and would recommend (and already have) her to anyone going through this process.

Current Client Recommendation
Randi Vladimer was my third and final attorney in a bitter and lengthy divorce. She knows her stuff and has great rapport in the courts especially with the judges which were particularly good due to the length of complexity of my divorce. She continues to represent me in ongoing custody issues. I trust Randi in doing what is best for me, counseling me through emotion and most importantly knowing the law beyond what opposing counsel demonstrated.

A great custody lawyer!
I just finished having a custody trial with Randi and I have nothing best the best things to say about her. She really knew what she was doing both in and out of the courtroom. She made me feel like I was her only client and that my children were her children. I can't say enough good about her! Thank you so much!

Exemplary
Randi provided excellent service and was responsive and professional. She clearly explained everything in a language I could understand and kept me apprised of the situation along the way. Her results speak for themselves . I would absolutely utilize her services in the future and recommend her to others with confidence.
Posted by Jeff | September 7, 2013
SHE'S THE BEST!!!!
She is just the best - so knowledgable and straight forward. Randi made sure I understood the process every step of the way. If she wasn't available during the day she would email me during the evening or have one of her staff members call me back. She always tried to keep my expenses to a minimum and always responsive to my needs. I already referred two of my friends to her and they love her.
