Outstanding Professional

Steve represented me in my child support and custody case, in which we won. My ex-husband was ordered to pay child support and I received full permanent custody. He also petitioned the judge for payment of my attorney fees, which the judge granted and approved. Steve did an outstanding job on my ...case and he exceeded all expectations.

Completely Satisfied

When I first entered Steven's office I felt very awkward about what I was going through. Once I met with Steven, he and his staff made me feel welcome and helped me get over that awkward feeling. He did not judge me for my inability to keep my marriage together but helped me understand that he was... there to help me get through this difficult time. I was reluctant to put up much of a fight but Steven reassured me that he was there to be the bad guy, to say the hard thing, and to push for a fair settlement. Steven kept me updated on where I stood, what needed to be done, and how the process would flow. He was honest and upfront about the timeline, never telling me what I may have wanted to hear but realistically giving me the information about what I should expect. I felt that he was very knowledgeable about my case and the entire process. Whenever I had a questions, I would send him an email and get an immediate response. Steven was looking out for my best interest and I completely trust his work on my behalf. He has been a very caring lawyer who worked hard to make sure that my interests were taken care of. I am very satisfied with his work , knowledge, care and concern that he poured into my case. I would recommend Steven to anyone who is going through a divorce.

Review - Steve Ockerman

I would definitely recommend Steve for anyone going through the extremely difficult time of divorce/separation. Steve proved to be very knowledgeable in several areas we had to deal with such as child support, custody and division of assets. I felt like Steve was responsive to all my questions and su...ccessfully navigated me through all legal matters during this tumultuous time. Most importantly, Steve was empathetic to the situation and helped me understand the entire process, while protecting my interests. I felt like Steve got me through and settled issues efficiently, professionally and in a practical manner. In the end, I felt like Steve helped me obtain the best outcome that could be expected for my situation. Thank you Steve.

A wonderful help to me

I will be forever grateful to Mr. Ockerman and his assistant, Ashley, for guiding me through the divorce process. I also had a complication, concerning my name, and Steven was very understanding and knowledgeable. Believe me, I've struggled for over three years to figure out a solution to my situat...ion, and literally in minutes, I felt relieved of the weight. I'm looking forward to the final resolution of my case, and will forever remember how kind Mr. Ockerman and his assistant were to me.

Professional, Knowledgement and Accessible

In February 2012 I had a consultation with Steven Ockerman regarding separation from my husband. Mr. Ockerman was very informative and I felt very comfortable talking with him about personal reasons of wanting this separation. Mr. Ockerman showed much concern and was very caring. A year later, aft...er separating from my husband, I emailed Mr. Ockerman as I wanted to file a legal separation and divorce proceedings. Mr. Ockerman knew exactly who I was and emailed me right away. I filed for both separation and divorce and it was done quicky and professionally. I also had to email Mr. Ockerman many times and he always answered my emails promptly. Mr. Ockerman is honest, knowledgement, always there to help.
