The Best

I cannot say enough good things about Linda Epstein, my attorney . She stood by me through some of the hardest and most overwhelming moments of my life and never made me feel alone in the process. During an incredibly emotional custody case, she was compassionate, professional, honest, and fiercely d...edicated to protecting both me and my children. What meant the most to me was that she truly cared. She listened when I was scared, answered my questions with patience, and fought for my family with strength and integrity every step of the way. In moments where I felt completely overwhelmed, she brought calm, guidance, and reassurance. Family court is one of the most stressful experiences a parent can go through, and having someone trustworthy and knowledgeable beside you makes all the difference. I will always be grateful for her support, hard work, and dedication during the worst times of my life. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney who is not only skilled, but genuinely compassionate and committed to her clients. I am confident and trust in Linda with everything.

Amazing attorney

Only one word comes to mind when I think of Linda: AMAZING. Linda is a zealous advocate for her clients, she set the bar as it relates to a family law attorney- she is knowledgeable, honest and genuine, she communicates very well & will always tell you what you need to hear vs what you want to hear. ...When my case first started I was very nervous and anxious. Linda’s confidence gave me the ability to trust her and not feel scared about the outcome. Linda got me everything I asked for and then some, she did not allow me to settle on anything less than what my child and I deserved. My case made it to trial, and Linda went to bat for me and did not let up until we got what we wanted. If you are looking, or on the fence about hiring someone, let this be your sign, you will never ever regret hiring Linda as your attorney.

10+ year satisfied client

Linda has been representing me for the pass 10 years and has provided me with the most top tier service. Every petition and court case she made sure I was not left without and got everything I deserved as a custodial parent. Never settled for less and went the whole 9 yards to make sure I didn’t hav...e to worry about anything! Fee’s are very reasonable and always willing work with you if you feel otherwise. I highly recommend Linda’s services! I promise you will not be disappointed! Thank you Linda for everything and all you do! - satisfied 10 year client

Advocate for Fathers with Money and Spits

My experience with Attorney Linda Epstein has been deeply troubling and emotionally exhausting. As a pro se litigant navigating the complex and overwhelming family court system for the first time, I had hoped to encounter professionals who would prioritize the best interests of the child. Unfortunate...ly, my encounters with Ms. Epstein have led me to believe otherwise. Ms. Epstein appears to advocate zealously for clients regardless of their conduct or history. In my case, she has continuously represented a father who has had minimal involvement in our child’s life, a man who was previously deemed unfit by the court—a fact that was not disclosed to me until months later. Throughout the process, I’ve watched her defend behavior that I believe is clearly detrimental to the well-being of my daughter. While I have taken responsibility for my own challenges and pursued treatment, therapy, and mental health support, the opposing party has made no comparable efforts, yet still receives unwavering support from Ms. Epstein in court. The clerical and procedural errors in this case have been staggering. My daughter’s name and date of birth have been repeatedly recorded incorrectly, and the petitioner’s name appears inconsistently across multiple legal documents. Whether these are oversights or a reflection of broader disorganization, it is unacceptable in a matter that affects a child’s life so directly. I’ve reached out to Ms. Epstein numerous times, as advised by the court and helpline, yet I’ve received little to no meaningful response. Even her own staff have expressed empathy, acknowledging that she frequently takes on similarly contentious and emotionally charged cases, and one even suggested I seek assistance from local churches—hardly a substitute for competent legal guidance. What is especially disheartening is that financial capacity seems to carry more weight than the facts of the case. The petitioner has publicly expressed concerns about legal expenses, only to then go on vacation shortly after. Meanwhile, crucial matters—such as missed school days, medical appointments, and concerning behavior in the home—are overlooked or dismissed entirely. It is also worth noting that I have been warned not to speak negatively about Ms. Epstein, with threats of legal retaliation should I post a poor review. I believe that everyone has the right to share their experiences truthfully, especially when it involves the welfare of children. If you are a father with the means to afford continued litigation and are seeking aggressive representation, Ms. Epstein may be the attorney for you. However, for mothers, particularly those who have been primary caregivers and survivors of abuse, I caution you to seek legal support elsewhere. In my opinion, Ms. Epstein does not operate with the impartiality or integrity that such sensitive matters demand. She may minimize or overlook significant concerns in favor of clients who can sustain prolonged legal battles. This review is not written out of malice, but out of a genuine concern for justice and the well-being of my child. I share it in the hope that it may help others make informed decisions when choosing legal representation during one of the most difficult times in their lives. – Kayla Segura
