Clear, professional, and supportive legal guidance

I had a great experience working with attorneys from Family Law and Mediation center on my prenuptial agreement. She was highly professional, clear, and efficient throughout the entire process. Natalia took the time to explain the legal implications of each clause and made sure I fully understood my... rights and responsibilities. Her practical advice helped me feel confident in the final agreement. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone in need of family law support.

Client

After several unsuccessful attempts to settle long running spousal support with ex-spouse, I was referred to Leslie Hoffman. Ms Hoffman and her team exercised diligence and professionalism in bringing about an amiable settlement and termination to ongoing support. I can’t thanks Ms Hoffman enough f...or her guidance through these challenging circumstances

Leslie Hoffman is Simply the Best

To say Leslie Hoffman is an exemplary attorney is a disservice to her legal acumen and skills. Leslie is nothing short of a brilliant strategist and has an unmatched legal mind. I hired Leslie for my divorce earlier this year at the suggestion of a good friend, and am just finishing with the final ...decree of divorce. I recently found a list of my goals and objectives for the divorce, she met every one. She is direct, straight forward, kind and is intimidated by no one. I read an article about obtaining divorce attorneys and it essentially said when you are going through a messy divorce with a few assets, get the best. That best is Leslie Hoffman. Hire her to represent you and you will not be sorry. I have nothing but the greatest respect for her. Bravo, Leslie!

Client

Discovering Ms. Hoffman's team was not coincidental at a time when I was in great need of legal counsel. I contacted Ms. Hoffman and her incomparable team in a life altering single broken marital matter moment of emergency and was immediately assured of the finest positive end legal results which wer...e successfully achieved. From first contact, she and her team have provided the most powerful legal strength and have coincidently been inspirational advocates as well. On referral, It was understood that Ms. Hoffman's best work is performed in a courtroom, but in my case court became unnecessary. No adequate combination of words could ever equal in weight the peace of mind, comfort, and security I now have as a result of Ms. Hoffman's ingenious legal expertise, strategic capacity, and sense of humor in crisis. She and her team de facto became the strongest stabilizing links in my circle of charges. I am forever grateful and have continued to pay it forward. And the beat goes on...

Knows her stuff

I hired Ms. Hoffman to help me reduce my spousal support payments. It was a complicated case due to my self-employment, but her group was agile enough to navigate the challenge and I was happy with the result. She was also quite efficient, which is always appreciated.

"I highly endorse this lawyer. I have had the privilege of working with Ms. Weber-Hoffman in several cases, as well as the opportunity to observe her practicing law. I have not and would not hesitate to recommend her as an attorney or to retain her should I be in need of one. She has the knowledge, the experience and the demeanor to represent any client in need, and to perform at the highest standards. She has always been admired, professionally and personally, in the legal community. And, while lawyers rarely use the word "never," I have never heard a negative word against her. She is truly an asset to her profession."
