An Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Pazner got me everything that I wanted and more. I was nervous to go to court with my ex over legal custody and parenting time because for years she had had complete control over my son and my interactions with him. I wanted a great attorney, and didn't know who I could trust to actively repres...ent me and my interests, not just do the bare minimum and end up conceding a lot to the other party. I met with Eric for an initial consultation and was very impressed with the way he carried himself, very confident and understanding. He listened to all my concerns and gave me a scenario that he thought would happen and what I deserved. It all sounded good...until we discussed fees. I was dismayed to hear his fees were higher than I had anticipated and so I tried to find another attorney. I interviewed several others, some that were cheaper and some that were around the same, but none of them felt as sure a bet as it did with Eric. So, despite the fees, which I looked at as "It's just money...I can get more money but I have this one chance here to get it right for my son," I moved forward with Eric. And I am so grateful that I did. Everything was handled professionally and promptly and I always felt that Eric was in complete control of the situation. I worried of course that it still may not go as smoothly once we got to court but it did. Eric negotiated quickly and got me everything that I wanted, and a little more. It was a great experience. So, if you are like me and thinking, maybe I can get a cheaper lawyer, don't. When it comes to looking out for your own rights you want someone who is going to protect your best interests. Eric is the best.

Professional, knowledgeable and friendly.

My story. I was suprised when I came home from a trip. My wife of 29 years was gone with the things she wanted. On New Years Day I called 2 attorneys. Eric called the next day, which was the day the holiday was observed. Talking to him, he explained he always is working. We scheduled an appointment w...ithin 2 days. He filed the paperwork to the county in 24 hours of our meeting. This gave us control of the process. Eric had explained that he specializes in divorce. It was a fact. He was always ahead of the process. For example: at our first mediation her attorney had brought 4 pages, 2 introduction and 2 pages of spreadsheet. Eric had 10 pages which explained the events entirely along with backup. The final outcome was fair to her and I, as far as I was concerned and something I could live with. Our team also included Sandy and Nicole. Sandy and Nicole are caring, informative and professional. I recommend Eric highly. Along with Sandy and Nicole I know I can always call and hear a friendly voice and get professional advice.

Custody issues

Eric is a very professional, intelligent family law lawyer who helped me tremendously. He was very thorough and great at communicating inside and outside the courtroom. I will hire him for any future issues without hesitation and will recommend him to everyone I meet who needs a lawyer.

The right lawyer for the job....

I hired Eric Pazner in 2016 as my divorce attorney. Like many people I was uneducated about my rights as a married man. Eric was very clear about my rights as well as what i could expect from a divorce. His legal team was very professional and honest with me when ever i had questions or doubts. W...ith the help of Eric and his team I made smart legal decisions like not moving out of my home during the divorce process, filing first, and keeping on good terms with my wife during this time. In the end I chose to reconcile with my wife instead of completing my divorce case. Eric supported me with my decision to stop proceedings and reassured me that he would help guide me in any decision I felt was best for my family. In the future if I ever need legal counsel Eric Pazner will be my first call.

Thank you Eri

I first hired another attorney to handle my divorce. That was a HUGE mistake. That attorney was totally unresponsive, didn’t have any type of strategy for my case and billed me a tremendous amount of money. Because of that poor representation, I faced enormous alimony and parenting time issues ...after my divorce was finalized. I then hired Eric Pazner to represent me for those post-judgment issues. It was the best decision that I could have made. I realized that I must have hired one of the very best divorce attorneys when my ex’s attorney withdrew from the case when she found out that I was now being represented by Eric and would not be bulldozed anymore. Eric did an extraordinary job representing me. At our first meeting, he was already carving out a strategy on how to handle and attack the alimony and parenting issues. I left that first meeting feeling more confident than I had ever felt before in my case because I knew that Eric understand everything about my case, really knew what I wanted and had a clear plan on how he was going to get for me what I wanted. Eric ALWAYS responded the same day to my emails and phone calls, and I was never left hanging to get my questions answered or wondering about what was going on with my case. At court, he was well-prepared and definitely knew his way around the court room. He knew everyone and seemed to be well respected. I know people hate to pay attorney fees, but Eric’s fees were always fair and I feel that he earned every cent that I paid him, fighting for me. Eric was relentless in advocating for me. And the most important thing is that he got great results for me! I hate to think what could have happened if I didn’t hire Eric. I’m glad that Eric was in my corner! I would definitely recommend him to friends and family, who need a tough attorney that knows what he is doing.
