Not a retainer, beware

I hired Mr. Remsen to finish a family law case I’d been fighting on my own for a year. He did exactly what I asked him to do and got the case close in one hearing, a couple motions. I paid him $5000, which I was under the impression was a retainer. Out of that only $2000 was used. When the case was c...losed I assumed I’d receive the remaining $3000. After months of emailing the firm I was told that I wouldn’t be receiving that money back, it was their money. So basically I he made out like a bandit on my case. BEWARE. Read the contract! At the time of hiring him I was extremely distressed and basically at the end of my rope with my case. I was tricked. I was never TOLD that money couldn’t be returned. It was snuck into the paperwork. Very disappointing. He did what get what I needed done so that’s why he’s getting two stars but I worn you. Don’t hire this man thinking you won’t be robbed.

I Can't Believe How Easy It Was

By far the easiest experience with a lawyer team hands down. We've all heard of divorce horror stories. Thankfully, mine was uncontested and as a result this team went above and beyond to literally handle the entire process for us from start to finish with zero hassle!

Smart, to the point, and attentive

Attorney Remsen was able to assist in the writing of me and my wife's prenuptial agreement, and was truly a step above other lawyers. I searched quite some time for a good lawyer, and I can say confidently you'll be hard pressed to find a better one than Frank P Remsen.

Frank remsen

Frank knows his law and not afraid to use it properly. He will fight for his clients as he has my whole family. If you need a family attorney look no further. He is understanding and excellent in the courtroom.
