Family Custody

I found Ron through reviews when searching for representation for a custody case of my daughter. Ronald was professional, proficient and efficient. We were moving out of state and everything was handled with great efficiency and timing. The whole team was very receptive and understanding to our needs.... I highly recommend Ronald.

Outstanding Attorney

I cannot say enough about Rons professional ability. My case was a modification of alimony. As soon as he heard details of my case he said he believed I had a good one. In fact he had just won a similar case. So he went to work. At his recommendation, we hired a forensic accountant which was a g...reat idea, so that Ron could focus on the law and the accountant could crunch the numbers!! We ended up going to trial, and his preparation and delivery was amazing. He methodically delivered the facts of the case. His exams of all witnesses were incredible. All along he worked to keep me calm and confident. His paralegal Jamie was so understanding and patient with me during the whole process. So bottom line, alimony was "modified " to zero!!! After negotiation with opposing counsel I didnt have to pay opposing counsel legal fees. And finally I could sleep at night because he negotiated that there would be no appeal. His outcome was 3 for 3 in decisions and negotiations. Thus I give Ron my highest recommendation. Let him review your case. Thanks Ron

Professional and Experienced

It has been a pleasure to deal with Ronald Zakarin and his office. He helped me through a difficult process and made it as easy as possible with professionalism and care.

Best Family Attorney

Ronald made this, otherwise, stressful experience as seamless as possible. For someone with dyslexia, I worried about understanding all of the technicalities involved in my case. He walked me through every step and every detail with ease. Ron was always there for me, just a phone call away. Overall,... he was an understanding and caring person who went above and beyond to help me through this trying time.

Personal injury miracle workers

My teenage son was nearly fatally injured in an automobile accident, medivacted to a trauma center and in a coma for three weeks. His care was excellent but the medical bills were astronomical. Ron Zakarin and his firm took control of the case the day after the accident, ensuring he got the best care... possible. Throughout his recovery Ron and his team worked hard to negotiate with the insurance companies and medical creditors to keep everything under control. In the end my son recovered fully, all the medical bills were negotiated and paid, the law firm was paid (industry standard rates) and my son still had a sizable sum to bank for any future medical needs. The actual medical bills alone were more than the available insurance! Even after everything was settled Ron personally keeps contact to make sure my son is still doing well. More than a lawyer or law firm, they truly were partners for our legal needs and made the best of a terrible situation.
