We recognize that divorce is one of the most difficult processes our clients will ever go through. It involves the most important aspects of our clients' lives, from their children to their economic security. We opened the Law Firm of Douglas E. Spiegel, PA. to provide our clients with effective and aggressive legal representation while providing a compassionate and reliable personal touch. We give our clients the personal attention they deserve and need during this difficult time. We work closely with our clients to develop strategies to protect assets and ensure our clients can maintain their standard of living after the divorce is final.
Unlike many other firms we limit our practice to only family law and marital law. From divorce, division of property and custody disputes to post-divorce matters, we can develop a sound strategy in line with your goals. We are knowledgeable, aggressive, and compassionate. But we refuse to "tell you what you want to hear" simply to obtain or keep your business. You need honest information and advice to make decisions based on the facts, the law, and the probabilities of the outcome you wish.

Deceptive & Unethical
• When I handed thousands of dollars to Mr. Spiegel for retainer in June 2016, he proceeded to do whatever he wanted or did not want to do. Face to face he appears competent but once leaving his office there was no follow through, he and his staff were unprofessional and lacked legal knowledge. Mr. S...

After two years in Court with a complex divorce I WON!!! and Doug Helped me out.
Doug Spiegel and his staff fought hard for me. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined for more than 2 years in court. My needs were put first and was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured by Doug and his amazing staff. ...

Great Lawyer
Doug and Sara were both and professional and personable. They assisted me with a speedy DOM. I’ll recommend Doug Spiegel to anyone needing his services.
"I have had several cases opposing Attorney Spiegel. I have found him to be very relaxed and approachable when parties are trying to amicably resolve a case out of court, while still being well prepared and fighting hard when in court. I believe he is knowledgeable about the law and well prepared for his clients. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have observed Mr. Spiegel in court for years. He is well prepared, has the respect of the judiciary, and represents his clients with class and dignity. An asset to the legal community."
"I endorse this lawyer. Doug is extremely knowledgeable criminal defense lawyer and aggressively defends his client's rights."
