Brian Pearlstein represented me through a lengthy, contentious divorce. My ex-wife was trying to avoid a settlement and divorce at all costs, and she dug in her heels, obstructed, and delayed at every step of the way. Before giving the case to Brian, I spent a year trying to work out an amicable sett...lement with her and got nowhere. Once I gave Brian the case, he kept up a steady flow of paperwork to my ex and her lawyer, moved the case along as fast as the courts would permit, and ultimately brought my ex to the settlement table and finalized the divorce. Brian is a big-picture person. He knows when to yield lesser points and where to dig in and stand firm. He was direct and honest about what was or wasn’t worth contesting. He was able to juggle lots of variables and spot the right time to do a deal. He also did whatever he could to contain costs at every step of the way. When I had to move cross-country halfway through the process, we continued to manage the process by email, phone and FedEx without a hitch. If I had a query for Brian, I could count on a response within a few hours. Brian was also able to put me in contact with other local professionals as needed, such as a broker to handle a long-distance distressed sale of real estate as part of the property split. Brian Pearlstein is experienced and effective, and I couldn’t have asked for a better advocate through a challenging and painful process.

Brian Pearlstein represented me through a painful and complicated divorce that included custody, complex finances, and assets including businesses. Through the entire process he explained with clarity the legal issues and the law, and helped me define goals to navigate the divorce and then stabilize ...and build the next part of my life. He told me what was realistic or not, attainable or not. He definitely advocated for me and what I deserved. He was compassionate while negotiating custody issues and arrangements. He obtained excellent results through both negotiation and litigation and protected my and my children's financial future. It was extremely comforting to have Mr. Pearlstein and his team in my corner during what was a lonely, hurtful, scary process. My divorce was long and Mr. Pearlstein stayed the course with unparalleled professionalism, yet with empathy. His patience is unending. His commitment to his client is stellar. I feel I couldn't have gotten through it without him. If anyone told me they were in need of a divorce attorney I would immediately say one name: Brian Pearlstein.

Mr. Pearlstein represented me in a difficult child support modification case. From the beginning he explained where I stood from a legal standpoint, counseled me with patience and understanding through the difficult phases of the case and in the end, negotiated a result that was better than I ever d...reamed! Mr. Pearlstein is the consummate professional. He always had my best interests in mind as well as my children and was willing to fight hard for me when I didn't think I had any fight left.. I always knew I could trust his advice (which is saying a lot as many people I know have changed divorce lawyers numerous times). I never for one second thought I was fighting this battle alone. And through it all, Mr. Pearlstein was able to stay objective for me when I wasn't. As far as family law lawyers go, Mr. Pearlstein is simply the best. I highly recommend him. I would never use anyone else.

I never, ever, imagined my marriage not being until death do us part. Yet, 5 months after sinking our life savings into the purchase of a new home and 2 months after my father tragically passed, my wife hit me with the unexpected news that she was leaving. The separation, and eventual divorce, took m...any turns (in terms of discoveries, emotions, etc.) that I am not going to go into here, but there was always one constant, one stabilizing force through it all - my legal representation. From Day 1, Kristina and Mr. Pearlstein allowed me to vent when I needed to; helped me focus when I needed to; and provided me with an intangible feeling of comfort - because while the rest of my world was crashing I knew they had my best interest at heart and sincerely wanted to help me get through the divorce and on with my life. The legal advice was superb and they were flexible and focused on achieving the outcomes I needed and wanted. I hope to never go through a divorce again, but if I do - or if any of my friends do - there is no doubt who I will seek to represent me.
