Grandchildren and Grandparents

A gratifying thank you to David Ristoff. Our case was very complicated and my emotions were extremely high. David is focused, confident, honest, and sincere. Most importantly calm and very reassuring, a true gentleman. We appreciate your dedication, hard work, knowledge of family law ...and immediate response to numerous phone calls, and text messages. David is incredibly insightful, nonjudgemental, honest and genuinely cared for our situation. We are very fortunate to have David Ristoff represent our family. Respectfully, Sally Jamiel and family

David was recommended to me by one of his clients and I am so happy that I hired him to represent me in my divorce case. David made sure that he was always available to answer any of my questions as my case was difficult and time-consuming. David was very patient and understanding and also handled ...my case with ease and confidence I sincerely appreciate everything he has done for me and I highly recommend him to represent you.

Custody and Child Support Family Law Case. Satisfied and Grateful

Custody and Child Support Family Law Case. Satisfied and Grateful Single Father. David was recommended by a friend. He was a complete 180 from a previous council to handle my Family Law Case A true and fair,”Go-getter.” Easy to get a hold of. Under Ristoff’s council my child support was reduc...ed to a fair amount (previous council could not get this done in 5 years) as I was led through my Custody Case for custody of my son. I had a clear and concise understanding of what was going on at all times. I couldn’t be happier with the result which ultimately resulted in the courts favoring myself the father custody of my son and child support payments.
