Jennifer Lee Novelli

I could not be happier to recommend Lee Novelli. She has represented me twice during a very difficult divorce and an order of protection. Lee was extremely professional and knowledgeable of the legal system. She was compassionate and available at all times to answer my questions. I am forever gra...teful that I had Lee on my side during this difficult time. I highly recommend Lee without hesitation.

My mind is at peace and confident BECAUSE of Ms. Novelli’s incredible work and effort on my behalf. Through a very emotional, personal, matter Lee was instrumental in guiding me through the details involved and the choices/responsibilities I had to make decisions about. With a deep sense of empathy..., she presented all the information I had needed in a clear, informative way. Speaking English to me in a land of Legaleze which is SO greatly appreciated. Going into this situation, MY mind was scattered, naïve and chaotic. With Lee Novelli’s representation, creating a sense of direction, confidence and security, I am through these difficult choices and in a secure, positive place.

Lee provided me with excellent representation during a complicated, highly emotional custody negotiation. Lee staunchly refused to participate in character assassinations, petty arguments and antagonistic measures (all while taking the brunt of the opposing sides' fully vested commitment to that appr...oach) - always kept my son's best interests front of mind and provided firm but gentle guidance throughout the whole process. She kept me well informed, returned calls/emails promptly, and was always honest with what she thought was the best option. Lee is not reactionary, and takes careful, measured action to ensure her clients interests are protected. She is smart, strategic, well spoken and highly committed to her clients. I would highly recommend Lee for anyone dealing with divorce/custody/domestic support issues. She's the best out there.

I retained Lee Novelli as my lawyer to handle my divorce. Throughout the whole process, she kept me up to date on what was happening, met all deadlines, informed me of all of my options, was very responsive to any questions or urgent matters, and was understanding and compassionate as we went through... the divorce proceedings. I felt confident that she would handle things in a professional, equitable and efficient manner. I trusted that my case was important and well taken care of, and I appreciated the guidance that Lee provided to get through difficult decisions, always keeping my best interests in mind. I would highly recommend her.

I thought I would be better off with a lawyer, so I hired Lee Novelli. What a living nightmare - the stress of divorce was only caused by having her as my lawyer. To call her unprofessional would be an understatement. To make a long story short, I ended up representing myself (after she told me it ...would take about $30,000 to put my case together for trial). It took me all of a Saturday afternoon to put my case together and I appeared in court "pro se" (without legal representation) and won. If I had continued having Lee represent me, I don't believe I would have won. I caught so many mistakes when I was looking through her paperwork to organize for court. Probably the biggest mistake - she filed my court case in the wrong county and had the nerve to charge me for it. Trust me, you are better off without a lawyer than hiring Lee Novelli.
