Life saver

I recently hired Diane for what was a nightmare at best. She helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. My divorce was contested but she was there to answer questions and assured me things would go well. Not only was my divorce difficult but was occurring in the middle of the pand...emic which added more stress. If you want legal help from a caring, knowledgeable and compassionate person she's the one for you. Will not sugarcoat facts but will fight for you!!!!!!

Never even had to go to court!

Diane represented me in my divorce a couple of years ago. My ex husband was not only a difficult jerk, he was also a cop in the county we live in. He went from threatening me with any and eveything he could and trying to male my life miserable, to settling out of court with me getting full custody of... my babies! They were there for me every step of the way and I would recommend her to anyone!

Thankful that she was in my corner

I don’t know where my daughter and I would be had I not hired the Law Office of Diane Sternlieb to represent me in my divorce. My Husband had been my partner and protector for over 16 years, I thought he was the perfect husband. Then, one day I came home from work and he started falsely accusing me... of some really bizarre things. Because of his paranoia and delusional thoughts, he destroyed our marriage. He was verbally, emotionally and mentally abusive at that point. This was his third marriage. He tried to bully me into signing his lawyers divorce papers so that he would not have to pay child support. This was my first marriage and I didn’t have a clue what I should do. The lady helping my husband with the divorce said she could not give me any legal advice since she was working for him but there were several lawyers close by that could help me and that I should have my own attorney look over the paperwork if I had questions. That turned out to be the best advice she could have given me. That’s when I found the law office of Diane Sternlieb. Diane Sternlieb and her assistant Jesse helped me through every step. They explained that child support was not my money or my husband’s money. It was my child’s money that was needed to take care of her and I did not have the right to short change her just because he was trying to say he could not afford to pay. Turns out, he could afford to pay child support for our child. Diane Sternlieb is a tough lady who will stand up for her clients. She did not allow my ex husband to bully me during our mediation. I am so thankful that she was in my corner during this very difficult time. Thank you so much for all your help. Kay K.

Review Diane Sternlieb

Best decision I made. She fought hard for me- as did her assistants. She did her job and more against a very difficult spouse. I knew all along I was in good hands. Hire Diane if you want to win- you feel safe with her.

Best Family Lawyer!

I am so thankful to have met Diane M. Sternlieb (Dee) and her staff (Jessie and Abby)! They were the most honest, professional, experienced, responsive, and hard-working people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I met with four other lawyers prior to meeting with Dee and all of them told... me the odds were against me regarding child custody, child support, equity distribution, etc. As soon as I walked into Dee’s law office, I knew she would be the one to represent me in my divorce case. I told her my story and she was very honest with me upfront. She immediately had a plan in place and took me under her wing like I was family. I completely trusted Dee’s advice throughout the divorce case and provided everything she needed to do her job effectively. In the court room and in mediation, she did not let me down. I went from being an every other weekend dad, to a father that has 50/50 shared physical and legal custody. She is a strong advocate for fathers who want to be a part of their children’s lives. I would recommend anyone to Dee and her staff when it comes to family law. My children mean the world to me and if it is one thing on this earth that I would fight for, it would be them. I trusted Dee with this challenge in my life and she did everything in her power to make it happen. She will be my family lawyer and friend for life!
