Nancy Konter Brodzki

The Brodzki Jacobs team was FANTASTIC! It is not just Nancy. They were very efficient, well organized and professional. They were patient and sympathetic to my needs as I processed my personal situation yet Nancy was never shy about being direct with me when I needed it by always helping me do what ...was best for the kids. I was always the weakest link in the chain (something I am not used to). They were highly recommended to me by two separate industry professionals I know as "the best but not the cheapest". I am glad I trusted the recommendations and let the Brodzki Jacobs team guide me through the difficult process. Ultimately, they did not waste my time/money. The process was swift and the overall cost at the end was well within normal expectations. Big thanks to Nancy, Tayane, Roberta, Misha and the rest of the team. I do not plan the get married and divorced again but if I do, I know who to call.

Sadly, I must say that Nancy was to represent me in a divorce and I had much more anxiety dealing with her and her office than my ex husband. I found her to be extremely unresponsive. Emails ignored and phone calls not returned. I paid a $7500 retainer not realizing that there is a clause stating tha...t the balance would not be returned if unused. It was so difficult to deal with the Brodzki Jacobs office that I fired them and plan to finish the divorce proceedings myself. Just too difficult to deal with her office. It was taking forever due to Nancy's many vacation days, out of office commitments and excuses for being unavailable. And was VERY annoyed that they would not return my unused balance on account. It's legal for them to have a no refund clause but certainly not nice or widely done that way. Would steer clear of this firm.

Critical: Professionalism, Responsiveness, Value My wife and I recently separated and divorced what is of the upmost importance to us was and always has been keeping it cordial keeping it respectable and doing the right thing for the children Nancy Brodzki was not my attorney she was the attorney o...f my wife. we settled very amicably but there are a few things you need to be aware of with Nancy. Nancy’s retainers are nonrefundable in other words if you give her a retainer of $7500 and she does $4000 of billable work she will not give you back the money that was not utilized for services that is something in my opinion that is unethical even if it is legal. We initially wanted to do a collaborative divorce which is a specific methodology that Nanci is certified in however since my wife and I agreed that this would be civil and fair we decided not to do and go forward with the collaborative process. Our kids are older and we didn’t see the need to do a collaborative divorce instead we made it very clear that we would do the right thing by each other we did this from the beginning and communicated this to Nanci in my humble opinion it was at this point that Nanci should have said I don’t think we’ll need the $7500 as a retainer but that never happened instead Nancy kept the money she refused to refund the retainer that was not used for the services she didn’t perform instead she offered to provide additional services in a future divorce hearing that seems a little ridiculous to me. But worst of all we should’ve known better and Andrea under a difficult time did sign the agreement and was aware that the retainer was not refundable sometimes in moments of stress we don’t pay so much attention to every detail and that is on us. My main objective in writing this review is to make you aware that Nanci does non-refundable retainers you should know that before you sign any agreement ask her about it and she’ll tell you but also ask her what happens when you don’t utilize all of the retainer who keeps the money. I want to make this clear that I am the ex-husband of Nanci‘s client who is my ex wife. One final thing look for a review shortly from my ex-wife that speaks to other issues re Nancy that lack professionalism, communication, follow up and total disregard for the client that has nothing to do with the retainer policy mentioned. Note, pardon spelling and grammar as I used dictation ap.

I was referred to Nancy Brodzki because she is a top attorney in her field and she would give me the best advice. After our meeting it was apparent that I was already financially strapped and I would not be able to afford her services past our initial meeting. Nancy was kind enough to help me navig...ate the legalese and bureaucracy of our legal system for one very reasonable flat fee! Although there was a lot of work on my part regarding how things worked and navigating Legal Aid, she was there to set my mind at ease, guide me and assure me I was on the right path. I highly recommend Nancy not only because of the many titles she holds, but because of her compassion in dealing with matters that are extremely raw and personal!

Nancy is the best attorney there is and she knows what it takes to win. She is very determine and has the best interest of her clients at heart. She is a little pit bull in the court room and gets across her message to the judge in a concise manner. Trust me she is the real deal. Thanks again Nan...cy for all your help.
