Divorce

I am very happy with outcome to my divorce. Attorney Berman and her staff handled it professionally and efficiently under the circumstances.

Divorce attorney

Janice worked tirelessly to advocate for my wishes in my divorce. While it was a long process she persevered and I am very happy with the outcome. She was a good balance of being tough and also a good negotiator. She communicated well with me throughout the process.

Highly recommended - very thorough, upfront and helpful staff

Janice explained the divorce process and what costs to expect up front so I knew exactly what was coming and what to prepare. Her staff was a pleasure to work with. They were very professional and cordial all throughout the process. They answered all my questions and eased all my concerns. I highly r...ecommend Janice and her team.

Straightforward, Honest & Experienced Attorney

Janice was a great attorney throughout the process. My divorce was not a quick or easy one to get through based on the lack of cooperation from the opposite side, but Janice's advice and honest, open feedback was very much appreciated during the time she represented me. I highly recommend Janice and ...her team if you're ever in need. I have already referred a friend and her expertise and direction helped for a quick, positive outcome for them as well.

Overall services delivered

Janice was the best ever, I wasn’t a typical divorcee. 61 year old (male) at the time of divorce. Grown kids, professional making good money and owned a house outright. Thought I’d lose my pension, my house, my car, and pay “alimony” to the wife for the rest of my life. None of that happened. An an...gel brought her to me. I owe her my new life. She’s also very reasonable with her fees. Divorce is a horrible process that you evolve through. I was married for 36 years. Took a year and a half to get through and a lot of anger to put behind me. She gets it all. Be patient, be patient, be patient Janice will get you through it. Shop your attorneys,... then hire Janice.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I endorse this lawyer. Janice is a very astute attorney, to say the least. She cares about her clients, but also about her profession. This results in good relationships in the legal community, which of course, is good for her her clients. After a case we had as opposing attorneys, I referred her a friend that I did not want to represent because of a potential conflict of interest. My friend was very pleased with her representation."

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.
