Thank you for representing me!

I am very grateful to Alan for representing me in my divorce and custody battle for the past year and a half. Alan was extremely knowledgeable and very passionate about my case. He is a skillful communicator and negotiator, always very prepared and highly organized. He masterfully presented my case i...n front of the judges in multiple court appearances. He educated me about the entire process and was there for me and my children every step of the way. I received an outcome I was hoping for, and it is all due to Alan’s experience, expertise, professionalism, and true care for his clients. I will recommend his services in a heartbeat.

Exceptional Attorney

I have worked with Alan over the last two years on a difficult custody and divorce case. Alan handled my case with great care and I felt las if I was always his number one priority. He was incredibly responsive and explained every detail to me, every step of the way. He was thorough, detailed and in...credibly organized. I saw this in another review for Alan and could not agree more: "in addition to legal expertise, Alan is also very skilled on the human aspects of negation, he has very high emotional intelligence in terms of reading the behavior and expected responses from the other side. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking help especially with a difficult ex-spouse."

Kudos - Custody Case

After consultation, I retained Mr. Plevy who provided superb legal counsel with undivided loyalty, immense expertise, confidentiality, and competent representation during a very complex custody case. He is extremely well respected within the Courts and by the Judges. Don’t look further if you want... your case resolved.

Excellent advice and counsel in a contentious case

I have worked with Alan over the last year on a contentious child support and legal custody case. Alan provided great advice on how best to handle my difficult ex-spouse as well as how to proceed in the case. In addition to legal expertise, Alan is also very skilled on the human aspects of negation..., he has very high emotional intelligence in terms of reading the behavior and expected responses from the other side. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking help especially with a difficult ex-spouse.

Divorce/Custody Case

Alan was hired for my divorce and later custody case. In both cases I was happy with his legal knowledge/decision making in regards to the cases. I was always part of the decision making. Alan was calm under the most intense times from myself and other counsel! Alan responded quickly to my questi...ons, showed compassion for all parties involved and most importantly made the children a priority.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
