Eric Laurence Pazner

My divorce was the absolute worst ordeal that I have had to contend with in my 36 years of living. I was up against lies, allegations, out of control costs, losing a home, children and business. Eric Pazner guided me out of that mess. He was aggressive and realistic about my situation. In the end... of this nightmare I have joint legal custody, my house, pay fair child support, and most importantly a new begining with my kids.

I was basically a broken man when I heard Eric's commercial on the radio talking about Father's Rights for Equality in Divorce (FRED). I had been contemplating filing but knew I was going to have to have one of the best attorney's money could buy. I decided to go for it and called FRED and made an ...appointment. I was very pleased to learn that Eric himself was going to represent me. I explained my miserable situation to Eric and the fact that I had been married to a controlling, manipulative monster that was hell bent on portraying me as an unfit father. I knew very well the fight that lay ahead, hence my desire to ensure retaining the best damn attorney my money could buy. I stood to loose my home and my son if not fully prepared for battle. Per Eric's advice I filed first and maintained an upper hand of which I still have to this day. I followed Eric's seasoned guidance and managed to get my ex-wife's family removed from my home. I maintained joint legal custody during the entire divorce process. I held my ground and did as Eric advised enduring everything from false allegations to investigations from the Friend of the Court to a Personal Protection Order against me. I knew my wife was and still is a reactionary type of an individual and with Eric's input we kept her in the ropes on a regular basis. My ex-wife fired her first Attorney out of frustration due to the fact that Eric soundly defeated her in court as she attempted to gain exclusive use of the marital home. It was a long tough battle but in the end I got my house back. Eric convinced the Judge to order my ex to make three house payments upon my return into the marital home. Eric also took her back to court and convinced the Judge to order her to return many items to the marital home that she took when she illegally decided to clean out the house with two moving trucks and her family. Eric also fought hard and ensured that I was awarded fifty percent of her retirement and that she got a pitiful amount from my Military Retirement. I also enjoy basically fifty/fifty joint legal custody of my son. And finally I enjoy the fact that she gets minimal child support.

I retained Mr. Pazner a year ago last December. I was very disenchanted with my previous attorney. He was recommended to me by a friend who said he was one of the best attorneys in town. Well,he wasn't the best but he was one of the most expensive attorneys in town. Maximum fees, minimum results. Nin...e months after retaining him, all we had acomplished was the custody schudule. he never returned my calls. The bills were excessive.He wasted tons of money dancing around with my ex- wife's Attorney never getting anything accomplished. I found Eric to be a breath of fresh air. He"s a straight shooter, right to the point. He laid it out and kept it clean and simple. He stuck to his fee agreement, returned my calls promptly and handled issues so fast that when I called him upset about that particular issue he assured me that I didn't need to worry that it was already taken care of. I wasn't used to that. It took me a while to not panic every time I saw a threatening e-mail from her attorney. He's a very kind person and he's a really good guy. He's one of those hard on the outside soft on the inside kind of people. You won't see that very often with family law attorneys. Three months after I retained him I was divorced end of. story no muss no fuss. He's honest and sincere he doesn't make promises he can't keep. If you're looking for a straight up guy that gets the job done efficiently and honestly, then he's your man. I can't recommend him enough. I am still working with him actively and am confident I will be doing so for the next couple years(in lieu of of the pain in the you know what my ex is!). All I can tell you is, thank God I have him!!!

I am involved in an extremely confrontational divorce case with an ex-spouse that tries to use the legal system to extort money, limit my time with our children, and basically defame me in court on a regular basis. Prior to retaining Mr. Pazner, I would, for lack of a better phrase, "get run over" b...y the system but since I've had him onboard, he has effectively negotiated thru very difficult situations and has been very effective at securing fair and just rulings. His vast knowledge of family law, court-room savy and aggressive yet respectful personality has led to very positive results for my case. My only regret is that I didn't hire him sooner - I'm sure he could have saved me thousands of dollars and many nights of restless sleep.
