Jacalyn Friedman Birnbaum

Gentleman, if your wife's attorney recommends Jacalyn Birnbaum to represent your children in your divorce proceedings, do WHATEVER you can to avoid her. She is COMPLETELY biased against men and when that was clear and I mentioned to her that her decisions regarding your children have absolutely no b...earing in fact and effect people's lives, she simply shrugged. She spoke AT LENGTH with my now ex-wife and listened very intently to her ramblings. After that, when she bothered to give me even the time of day to explain my position on things, it was almost immediately clear that she had already formed her opinion. She is one miserable human being who has no business being in the position she is. She is an embarrassment to her profession. Shame on her for acting in the manner she does! It's incredibly hurtful and mean-spirited and she is apparently oblivious to her behavior. Feel free to read some of the other reviews of her. I am FAR from the only person who feels the way I do about her. I'm surprised her actions haven't caused her to be disbarred but life is funny that way. I am not some vengeful lunatic who is trying to get revenge of any sort. My ex-wife passed away last year and I have absolutely NO reason to espouse my position on things except that I was going through my files regarding my divorce from OVER 20 years ago and seeing her bill just reminded me of just how shitty she acted toward me. She's should be ashamed. Oh, and she's also a huge phony. I'm STILL upset with myself for allowing her to represent my kids. Her actions messed with my relationship with my children TO THIS DAY (and they're 25 and 21 at this point). If I could give her zero stars, I would. In any case, STAY AWAY!
