Chad Baruch

At a time that i was lost in a sea of confusion and emotional pain over the sudden death of my ex wife and the loss of our daughter to the family courts for "best Interest" as i would move her away from school and friends to live with me in Florida, our daughter was placed with a man not her father ...who not only has a record for violence on my ex wife but also a record for neglect/abuse on this very child. It was at this time that a friend who knew what i was going through and how many attorneys had been involved recommended Mr Baruch. It was a breath of fresh air as i was beginning to think very poor thoughts about the whole legal system here was a man with ethics and obvious legal knowledge-he made no promises and only spoke to the facts of the case, his empathy for his clients shows through in every phone call and message- all done with a steel like determination to do the right thing. I know from my experience that in Mr Baruch I finally have a counselor that will fight to the end for my families right to be together in peace .

  • 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.
