IF YOU NEED A DIVORCE ATTORNEY, HIRE BRADLEY ROBERT KAYE... YOU'LL THANK ME LATER!

Bradley R. Kaye, Law Offices of Jonathan Merel is one of the BEST divorce/family law attorneys you can find and hire to help you with your divorce process...He gets things done in a speedy way to finish, be done, so you can be HAPPY again! He is experienced, dedicated, and right on top of things a...t all times to make sure you get the BEST results possible during and in the finale of your divorce! He achieves and completes things very thoroughly in an extraordinary professional way! Brad K. handles arising matters asap, replies to your emails, texts, and phone calls immediately with truthful answers, strategies, plans of resolution and even attack (if needed) in ugly disagreements, conflicts, and disputes with your ex, who just don't wanna do what's right for your children! Brad will not treat you like a number in his client statistics. HE WILL make sure your case is NOT put on a back burner until the end of completion of your case, giving you best legal attention at all times when you need him! He will not take your hard earned money and promise you pears on apple trees! Brad K. is very truthful, straightforward, trustworthy and mostly right on point with what he can accomplish, and what the results in the finale of your divorce might be! Brad K. is very passionate about his work and gets things done with a 100% satisfaction guaranteed for his client, who is going thru a repulsive, unpleasant divorce. He knows when it's time to theoretically attack and when to slow down on your settlement demands to get exactly what you want and need... I highly recommend Brad K. as your divorce attorney! I had to fire 2 attorneys BEFORE I hired Brad Kaye & Jonathan Merel with Law Offices of Jonathan Merel and wasted a lot of money & time making that mistake... Bradley R. Kaye as one of my divorce attorneys delivered FAST the BEST results I needed for my two wonderful children an I with a 110% satisfaction as his client in the finale! thanks so much!

Mark's the Petitioner in this divorce

Bradly took my case with gusto. He was precise in his explanation of the process, and advised me to all the rights I have as the petitioner. His performance in the discussion with the apposing attorney was outstanding, Had the man at a loss for words at one point. He could have gotten more for a sett...lement with ease, but I was attempting to be kind to my wife as to maybe someday reconcile... That ain't happening. In any event, I am very impressed and pleased by this attorney's work

Posted by Jennifer | October 13, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Family

Thankful!

My case was a bit difficult due to the non cooperation of the other party(my ex). Mr. Bradley Kaye handled my case with a no nonsense and a appropriately aggressive approach that was much needed in this particular situation. He was extremely helpful and any questions I had he explained clearly. I wou...ld highly recommend Mr. Kaye and his firm with your family law needs.

Highly recommended!!!

I worked exclusively with Bradley Kaye and I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer! He is a master of his craft and made a difficult situation exceptionally easy to deal with. If you are looking to save a lot of money in the long run and want peace of mind, look no further than Mr. Bradley Kaye!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
