Miriam Z. Wolock

Miriam, ****, and Dr. **** First off I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude. All of you quite literally saved my life and kept my son in it. I am officially done with my weekends. Divorce papers are signed and I have received the closing book. The house is completely cleaned out and we will... be closing the sale on this Tuesday. We have to bring $6,000 to closing, but it is done. I believe I have only one more parenting class left and on October the 18th I will get my parental rights back. I have a Psychiatrist managing my medicine and I am doing much better. I know you have seen me at my worst. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for providing me with excellent counsel, even when I could barely handle facing my situation. You two are much more than Lawyers to me. Dr. **** you are more than a counselor to me. You all have earned my trust at a time when I thought I could not trust anyone. I know it may be a conflict of interest, but if there is any way I can repay what any of you have done for me, the offer is there. All of you know how important my son is to me, thank you for keeping that a high priority. Miriam, Your love and concern for my personal/ mental health was duly noted and part of how I made it through was listening to you. You continually kept me on the path I needed to be on. You were extremely patient with me. I look forward to the day when we can see each other under better circumstances. Sincerely and with brotherly love, Your client

This is a review I wish I didn't have to write. At the end of a 25 year marriage, Miriam was recommended to me. What a wonderful person and professional. While she made sure my interests were protected, she worked towards a fair and reasonable settlement without confrontation or a protracted divor...ce process. She is incredibly detailed and made a painful event as "easy" as possible. In the end, my ex commented that we could have shared Miriam as our attorney. If you are still reading this, I hope and pray you find a way to keep your marriage together. However, if you do find yourself in need of a divorce attorney, then look no further than Miriam. Miriam exemplifies a profound Abraham Lincoln quote, "Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser - in fees, expenses, and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of being a good [wo]man. There will still be business enough."

Miriam was the exact attorney I needed for this emotionally challenging situation. She aggressively helped me handle my divorce (which involved custody issues). I always felt I was in extremely capable, intuitive and knowledgeable hands, which is exactly what you when going through a divorce. She bri...ngs to the table an admirable level of professionalism along with a matter-of-fact attitude that is tempered with just the right amount of kindness needed to make this process palatable. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend to any friend, family member or client should the occasion arise.

This was the first time I had worked with a lawyer, and given this was for custody of my son, I had all sorts of emotions throughout the process.....but I can say I'm very thankful that I had Miriam by my side. The unknown was scary, but her guidance that she provided throughout the way helped me get... to a resolution that I am happy with. She was a realist as my lawyer, but compassionate as a mother herself, and that is what I needed during the process. She is extremely knowledgeable and I would say one of the best in her field. She embodies all of the qualities listed above and I don't think you could ask for more. She was highly recommended to me and I would give the same recommendation to anyone who needs her services.
