Great attorney who works hard to get the best results for you

Ms. Masin worked extremely hard alongside me to determine the best way to handle each situation as it arose during my separation and divorce. She represented me very well in court and could think quickly on her feet. She made decisions in the moment, based on her extensive experience in the courtro...om, which resulted in successful litigation on my behalf. She is open minded and gives honest and forthright opinions and advice regarding legal situations. Her solid integrity is a testimony to her successful reputation. She helped me tremendously and I am convinced she will give the same work ethic and integrity to all her clients in any legal situation. Ms. Masin is highly recommended by me and I have already referred her to many friends.

Legal Rockstar

Erin Masin, is absolutely excellent. She is thorough, well studied, (very knowledgeable), has an incredible memory, and is like an AI engine when in court; she knows exactly what to say, and when to say it as she is dynamic and can shift gears on a dime all while making it look rehearsed for a we...ek. Her placement, and logical order of *points and *arguments, will leave you wondering if she's also a mathematician. Let the other side beware of this lawyer. Also worth mentioning - her court presence (examination and cross-examination) is right out of a movie. Her summary/closure statements are second to none.

Posted by Tameshia | May 18, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Outstanding professionalism, very thorough, and just Phenomenal in every sense of the word!! My highest recommendation.

I’m a single mother who dealt with a custody situation of my now 8 year old son, over the past 5 years. His father had a history of abuse, married a woman who’s violent past included assault charges against him and her ex-husband, and his teenage stepdaughter was hospitalized multiple times for menta...l health issues. When I raised this as a concern for the well-being of our son in his care, he decided to pursue custody. I sought representation from the firm, and Erin was eventually assigned. From the very beginning, she reached out to every witness, followed up on every single lead no matter how small, and discovered more information against his father that I never new existed. Additionally, she provided me with expert advice and recommendations, made sure that I continued to take the high road in all interactions with him, and was always upfront and honest in all of our discussions. I expected nothing more than her best effort no matter what the outcome, and she went well above and beyond. Erin is a very caring, understanding, professional, and thorough individual, and it showed in her work. I am extremely thankful that she was a part of the team, and I could not have made it through the whole ordeal without her. She has my highest recommendation, and any case that she is assigned, I have no doubt that she would give her absolute best.

Family Law Attorney Who Will Go Above and Beyond All Your Expectations

I highly recommend Mrs. Masin to anyone who needs an attorney in family law. I am a single mother with primary custody of my two children. The journey has been an emotional roller coaster, but I knew I had to protect my children. Throughout the past 13 years, I retained three different lawyers, e...ach referred by close friends or family. However, each time we entered the court room, with ample evidence and witnesses, I would lose visitation time. Unfortunately, I was swimming in attorney fees, while the other party had high class lawyers at his disposal with no regard for the money he spent. I was running out of time. We were less than a year from my oldest child’s 18th birthday and the father was still not complying with the court order visitation. I thought all the time, which I was owed, would never be made up. Then, I found Mrs. Masin, a fourth lawyer. I was completely skeptical, after all, with 13 years of building attorney debt, only to have time unjustly taken from me, I just had no faith in getting that precious time back. I reluctantly, went and spoke with Mrs. Masin. I started explaining my story and of course she was kind, caring, and completely baffled by what had been happening with my cases but of course that is how other attorneys reacted as well. So, I continued to tread lightly, with little hope of any positive outcome. She dove right into my case and in eight short months, she had accomplished more than anyone had in 13 years of my court battles. She had her mind set from our first conversation; she was determined to get as much time back as possible because she understood the importance of having that valuable mother/son time. She hit the case hard, she was able to push and receive an emergency hearing, during the onset of the pandemic. She did something I never thought possible, she was able to get me the time remaining, before my son turned 18, which was not all the time that was taken but it was the most possible before his birthday. I could not have hoped for anymore, especially when I did not believe I would be the one walking out of the court room with my son, that day. I am above and beyond grateful for the precious time she was able to give back to me. Not only is Mrs. Masin a wonderful person and an excellent attorney, but her colleagues were also. I did not have many interactions with them but when I did, they were professional, kind, and caring, just as Mrs. Masin has been from the day, I met her. I cannot express how much I appreciate Mrs. Masin and the great team she works with. I do not normally provide public reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. The only other thing I could have hoped for, would have been to have found Mrs. Masin 13 years ago.

Ms. Masin - Professional, Caring, Thorough

After speaking with a number of attorneys and mediators it was clear to me that working with Ms. Masin was the best option. Ms. Masin is an extremely competent Attorney who works tirelessly for her clients. At every step of the legal process I was provided with outstanding advice which was always pre...sented in a compassionate way. You do not get married to get divorced, however, if you end up needing someone to represent you Ms. Masin is for you.
