Janice L. Berman

Janice Berman is an excellent attorney. She is a gem!! She is dedicated, hard working, and loyal. She guided me through my bitter and messy divorce. She was referred by another attorney that was working on my case. I really regret for not meeting her at the beginning of my divorce. In general, peopl...e don't know the law and the emotional stress that goes with it. She was my rock to lean on. With her guidance and knowledge I was able to get my family business back from my ex husband. At the height of my divorce before my trial I was sadly to say I had to put my business on the market. With her guidance I am now the sole ownership of my family business. She is also very dedicated to her work and works very hard. She did not leave any detail out. This is why I knew she was able to handle my case. She walk through all the details and my paperwork with me. She also found a state pension that my ex husband did not present. I never knew I was entitled to it. She made sure I was under my ex-husband's medical insurance since I have a chronic illness. She gave me options for me to choose and I never felt any pressure. She was more like a friend and someone I can trust. Someone I've known for a very long time but very knowledgable and very smart. She was always on top of everything. She returned all my calls promptly and kept me updated throughout the process with emails. I have referred Janice to several of my friends and family. It is hard enough to go through a divorce but what is worse for me is the ignorance of what I can do. I felt lost and vulnerable. I had no leverage over my case with my previous attorney. However, when Janice took over my case I saw a big difference. She took a stand and fought for me. Soon I felt the opposing attorney lost her focus and her leverage over the case. Janice and I made several attempts to settle the case but my greedy ex-husband demanded more money and turned down our offers.. So Janice came up with the idea to put my business on the market. With that option my ex-husband immediately requested mediation without his attorney's advice. He called me directly without his attorney and arranged a meeting. He wanted to settle the case before the trial. At that point the trial was in two weeks. Maybe it was his attorney's lack of experience. But I really have to give Janice the credit it was really her idea. We settled and my ex-husband ended up with way less than he orginally requested. We dissolved the marriage and the trial was not presented before the judge. Janice did her best to motion the opposing attorney to speed up the process. This is the part I love about her. She never gave me the impression she wanted to prolong my case to make extra money. She was always fair and informative with her decisions on my case. She didn't waste my time. I consider Janice one of the best and I am very lucky to have found her. In the future, I will always refer Janice to anyone who will need an attorney. But most importantly she helped me secure my business and my future. She made all this happen for me and I am truly grateful. Best of all I found a friend who can give me legal advice with no hidden agenda. Plus, she has great staff and Shirley you are the best!!!!
