I was very pleased when I hired Janice and her team!

Janice and Shirley were on top of every aspect of my house closings. She handled both the selling side and the buying side. She was able to guide us through every aspect, even when the opposing side didn't hire an attorney until Janice strongly encouraged them. I was pleased with Janice's take on t...he situation, and was impressed with her ability to take a situation and offer advice on how to handle. All of her correspondence was professional, accurate, to the point, and timiely. Her assistant Shirley was also very good at getting back to me with a phone call or emails on whatever was taking place. She was patient when we would call in during any frustrating situations in the proceedings. But let me be clear, the frustration was with opposing counsel, not Janice's office. I would recommend them very highly! She has the professional touch as needed, but also has the personal side when just an opinion or calmness is required. Very pleased!!!

Wouldn't go to anyone else!

I've had one condo sale and one condo purchase handled by Janice Berman and I wouldn't go to any other attorney. She gave quick and informative replies to all of my inquiries. Both transactions were seamless and without any troubles. Very much feel she truly cares about her clients' best interest....

Divorce Client

Janice has helped me to finally get divorced! I am grateful for all her help. Janice have been very patient with me and have always assured me she is doing everything in her powers to get all my petitions awarded. The divorce proceedings have been very painful but she has always made me feel assured ...that everything would be ok at the end of it all.

A very nice lawyer

Janice helped me from the very start on my legal matters stemming from my divorce. I went through some stressful times and Janice would always support and provide a feeling of comfort. There are no real winners in divorce cases but at least Janice was able to make the process less painful. I am ever ...grateful to her for helping me through the matter and allowing me the feeling that life will be much better going forward.

Divorce lawyer

Janice was effective and conscious of her hours spent when she helped me with my divorce. She has helped me a couple of times, since, too. Very honest and focused.

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.
