Ann S. Rothstein

I normally don’t write reviews for anything but I felt like I needed to after I read the review that says she makes her clients do all the work.  I’m a little in awe as to where this person is coming from.  No one knows your case better then you and no one should care more about it then you.  Ann gen...uinely cares about helping you but you need to care as well.  She might ask you to type something up or make a phone call.  Big deal.  She keeps her operating costs down so she can pass the savings on to her clients.  It sounds like this person didn't care enough to get off their lazy ass.  It’s your battle with your ex, if you don’t want to fight it then no one will be able to help you.  If you actually care, Ann will help make the best out of a bad situation.  She’s the best guide/ally one could hope for.

Ann Rothstein appeared to have good reviews; so I hired her. I recommend that you do your homework first, on the lawyer that you are hiring. She never did anything to help us. She wanted me to do all of the work. Working with her was so absurd. It is a total waste time and money, find yourself anoth...er attorney, pay the extra cost and hire an assiduous lawyer, that will be in your corner. It will be in your best interest in the end.

Words cannot say enough about how wonderful and supportive this woman has been. The best lawyer I could've found, and I still thank God for that. Not ridiculously priced either. Amazing communication, always kept me in the loop, gave great advice, stayed on top of the situation. We've won are last se...veral court hearings which would not have been possible without her extensive knowledge. Very knowledgeable and highly impressive. I recommend her with all I have, definitely give her a visit.

Ann is amazing. I chose Ann after a failed attempt at collaborative divorce. The whole collaborative process had left a bad taste with lawyers who charged me a retainer and then for hours and hours of meetings that did little to nothing to move me toward divorced. Ann cut through all the baloney that... I was getting from the other attorneys and helped move me from frustrated to divorced. She doesn’t have a swank office that you visit and get charged for every moment you are there. She doesn’t have staff that answer her phone and charge you when they send a fax. Ann simply tells you where you stand, what you should do and gets things done. Listen to her. The first weeks working with her she laid it out simply for me and over the following months I took her lead and I ended up with shared placement and custody of my son (which my former wife was adamant that I would NEVER have). Everyone knows Ann in the courts. She is tough, she is usually right and she is fair.

Ann had fantastic reviews here so I hired her. She never did anything she promised to do. She wanted me to do everything. It was ridiculous. Then she just dropped off the map and it took 2 weeks to get a hold of her. Another reviewer on here said her problem is she gives more attention to some client...s than others. I guess I fell into the category of not getting attention. She made me miss hearings and pissed off a judge's staff which I'm sure contributed to the fact that I lost my case. Her law firm is named after her dad I think, and I think her dad must have been a much better business man and lawyer than her because she trades under his name and not hers. I do not recommend Ann Rothstein at all. Stay far away. Pay the extra money, it'll be worth it in the end since she does nothing for the money you do pay her.
