Matthew A. Kirsh

When the courts suggested getting a lawyer to represent the children, I was not thrilled. Our case was already complicated, and I thought this would only add another layer of difficulty. But I was wrong. My divorce came with lots of anger and it is was sometimes hard to remember to put the needs ...of the children above all else. Matt Kirsh was so often the voice of reason during a challenging time. He was able to read the situation and asked all the right questions to get to the truth. I walked away with sole custody of my kids, but Matt Kirsh made sure that their father also got time with the kids. Above all else, he put my children first and today my kids are happy and well adjusted.

Divorce is painful. There are many injuries along the way, and when both parents do not work to shield their children and keep them out of the acrimony of the divorce process, the children of the marriage can be among those injured. I know from my own direct experience that Matt Kirsh cares greatly... about the welfare of children in the divorce process. He is respectful of both parents, and encourages positive relationships for all family members throughout what is a difficult and demanding process. I am grateful that I had Matt as my legal partner. From the very beginning, Matt used his strong experience to guide the process for me and ensure a fair outcome. Matt provided sound legal advice and guidance, but he also very much added a human dimension and compassion to the process. Matt properly asserted and effectively represented my positions, but in the middle of conflict he was also able to pursue sensibility and reason at times when those are in short supply. Matt was able to defuse issues on a number of occasions, and thereby avoid unnecessary conflict. I developed a high level of trust in his advice both legal and otherwise. Matt has an experienced, practical, results-oriented and compassionate approach, and I found him to be a great partner.
