Fantastic!!

Seth was amazing! He's down to earth, straight forward, and isn't afraid to fight for you. He and Gabriella kept me informed through the entire process and was quick to answer any and all of my questions. I highly recommend him to anyone in need.

Always available !

I’ve worked with Seth twice now, and there’s a reason I came back a second time ! I’ve truly contacted him at the worst times (two different holiday weekends), and he answered promptly without hesitation and helped me navigate through a couple stressful situations. Highly recommend !

Great attorney

Seth was hired very late into my case. He came into a mess of a situation and did everything he could to help. He fought for my relationship with my son. He is firm and will prepare you for the worst while fighting for the best. I can't recommend him enough. Oh and Gabi you are a saint. It has been a... long road but Seth was able to negotiate for a fair settlement. Thank you so much for all your hard work!

Best custody Attorney!!

Seth was so great during my custody battle, we loved him and his wife, Gabi! He was very informative and answered all of my many many questions! 10/10 recommend Seth to anyone in need!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
