Reliable

I came to this law firm with a very difficult case. The team was very knowledgeable, understanding and most importantly they spoke Cleary to me, and were very frank and open. They were able to find a solution for my divorce litigation in months after I had almost two years of battle in. very nasty li...tigation. I would highly recommend Brian Karpf and Andy Wilson for any Divorce Litigation matters.

Great Investment!

Brian is a great listener and compassionate person with a fantastic team behind him. Not only is he a very knowledgeable family law attorney, but has the emotional intelligence to get to a quick resolution for his clients. He is a trusted advisor and provides various options and alternative scenarios... that also makes him an out of the box thinker. It is an art to be able to be both amicable with the mediator and opposing counsel to push the case far along, since he is very likeable, and also to buckle down and to not take no for an answer when needed. In addition, Brian is an expert on The Hague Convention and worked with my attorneys in other jurisdictions to ensure that I had additional protection while reducing risk. I will definitely hire him again for any future matter and refer him to friends and family when the need arises.

When you need a Pitbull that is kind!

There are not enough stars to click on. Attorneys are supposed to be held to a higher standard and I can honestly comment that Brian Karpf operates in a trusted advisor capacity raising the bar far beyond any attorney in his family law field. I can tell you from direct knowledge that Brian positions... himself in a confidant manner with the utmost respect and strategic mindset when working with his clients. We completed an extremely complicated Real Estate transaction where Brian maintained an open but calculated thought wave that ultimately created best case scenarios for all parties that were involved. Solid character and absolute joy to work with. I would refer any family law issue to Brian with zero hesitation. Never in my wildest dreams would I have consider a family law attorney actual family....... Brian is like a big brother watching out for my best interests! JK

Brian M. Karpf

I highly recommend Brian M. Karpf if you are in need of a lawyer to help you navigate the divorce process. I knew from my first visit to the YBKG office that I was in good hands. Brian M. Karpf was professional, compassionate, and straight forward in our discussions about my divorce case. He offered ...valuable advice for me at a time when I was emotionally distraught. I took his advice and it led to a favorable outcome in my case. During the divorce proceedings, Brian M. Karpf and each YBKG team member communicated with me by phone and email effectively and in a timely manner. I appreciated their dedication to my case and willingness to go the extra mile while answering in detail a multitude of questions related to each stage of the divorce process. I was very fortunate to have Brian M. Karpf looking out for my well-being during a difficult season in my life.

Divorce Case

Brian was great from beginning to end, he was always on top of the case and answered questions and concerns immediately. I felt like I was treated like an actual human being rather than just another folder on the desk. I highly recommend Brian, he is very knowledgeable in family law and always has pl...an.
