Lucky to have Janice as my attorney

My divorce was very contested. I was lucky to have Janice Berman represent me because she truly knows what she’s doing. Janice knows what to fight for in a case and how to fight for it to win it. She is very professional and knowledgeable. Janice is well known and respected from judges and peer attor...neys. It was so easy for her to mediate my difficult divorce to a good outcome for me and and my child and she kept it low on cost as well. Thank you Janice!

May your legal search begin and end with Berman Law offices!!

I was 2 1/2 years into a bitter and ugly divorce, then I found " The Law Offices of Janice Berman"! It was like the heavens had rained down on me! Janice is what every great lawyer should be! She is ethical, fair and truly represents your legal needs! Her greatest strengths, is that she is organi...zed knows her law and " Lays down the Law"! My future is so very optimistic having had Janice and her paralegals Laurie and Shirley go to battle for me! They are rare in the legal world! I just wish I would have found them sooner?!!! Look no further, this is the law firm to exceed your legal needs and not leave you sitting broke! Janice commands the courtroom!!

Excellent! Very knowledgeable family attorney.

I had the opportunity to see how Janice works thru a friend years before I filed for divorce and I was very impressed. When I decided to take my case to court there was no doubt in my mind that I wanted Janice to represent me and what a good choice that was. It wasn't an easy case and while my ex-hus...band changed 6 attorneys, I had the best one by my side until the end. Very pleased with how my case was handled and with the outcome. She's very professional and the years of experience come thru her being so knowledgeable. But the most thing I liked about her, a genuinely compassionate person. Her office staff is also wonderful and very friendly.

Masterfully excuted father's custody

Ms. Berman taught me many things along the way. Some lessons were harder to follow than others. The day we met she told me not to listen to anything my spouse said. She had to repeat the to me on a number of occasions but ultimately was the best lesson. The most impressive and amusing lessons were... the ones that she taught to opposing counsel. She taught things to both attorneys that represented my ex-spouse. Ms. Berman was knowledgeable of all the new and upcoming laws. She took appropriate steps to insure I was taking full advantage of all the changes. Ms. Berman fought for me every step of the way. The safety of my children was always at the forefront and she never wavered. She was an absolute 'pit bull' in court and never stopped fighting. I will be recommending Ms. Berman to anyone I know that may need legal services.

"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."

  • 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.
