Excellent Family Law Lawyer

I hired John for various services throughout the years because I trust his experience and knowledge in family law. More than anything he is a trustworthy individual who has advocated for my interests with unwavering determination. John is willing to put in the time and ask the tough questions to dev...elop an effective plan for the case. He’s done excellent work in a timely manner. I can’t recommend him enough, his competence has provided reassurance during uncertain times.

Highly Recommended Lawyer

John Pittarelli was referred to me by a friend who was a previous client. It was the best decision I made for my son and I. John truly puts the time to understand the case and find ways to help his clients. I initially obtained John while living out of state where I was already on going a time sharin...g case with another attorney. I decided to go with John and with his help, I was able to obtain custody of my son. As a father working in investment banking, I was very nervous regarding time sharing. John made my dream a reality but always ensured the child’s best interest came first. One of his major strengths is his honesty, and fairness to both parties. John truly cares about what is in the best interest of the child (in my case, regarding my son). He is an amazing attorney and is very quick witted and I cannot express how grateful I am for all the work that he has put into my case so that my son and I can be together once again. I highly recommend John to be your lawyer and would be more than happy to speak/connect with anyone about my experience and why you should choose him.

Highly recommend

John Pittarelli was recommended to me by a friend. Best recommendation I’ve been given in 10 years! John is sharp in the courtroom, has high attention to detail — very attentive and knowledgeable. He was able to help me navigate through my court proceedings with ease and with understanding. John had ...an arsenal of information and resources as I moved through the process of my court proceedings which made my court process very easy and my transition as a result of my disposition was beyond satisfactory. If you’re looking for an attorney that knows how to get the job done, John Pittarelli is definitely the attorney for you. He’s highly respected and knowledgeable in his field and he has great rapport with his clients. Absolutely recommend!

Team work at it's best

I first hired John to help with my divorce in 2012. Honestly did not think I would need him again. Fast-forward to 2020 and I found myself in a custody battle for my son. John has been the level head needed when I was too frustrated with my ex to see straight. He fights for what is right, which is no...t always what is easy. Win or lose, he felt every judgement just as much as I did. He coached me along the way and I am more knowledgeable now then I was at the beginning. We had mediation back in October, which I thought would be the end of our relationship, and he would just move onto other clients. However, he still calls to check up on us and wants to see how the child is doing. He seems to care more for my child than his biological father does, which makes trusting him with decisions so much easier. John truly wants what is best for the child and will fight for that.
