Child custody/ adoption

We hired Mr. Graff in October 2018 and won our case July 2019 and my daughter was adopted by my husband in October 2019. Mr. Graff was very knowledgeable in family law. He knew right off the bat what he had to do to winning our case. Communication was great, if we didn’t know what exactly was going o...n he’d explain it in a way we did. Mr. Graff never went ahead and did anything without our knowledge. We wanted parental rights terminated and an adoption and that is what we received.

Sharp-witted and empathetic. He closes the deal.

I am a lawyer myself (in a different field of law) and retained Jeff after a year of trying to self-represent but getting nowhere. He promised to close the deal quick and he delivered. I was especially impressed with his easy knowledge of family law, familiarity with the court procedures, and aware...ness on ruling trends with specific judges.

Amazing Family Law Attorney

I hired Jeff as my third, and luckily final, attorney for a very high conflict divorce and custody proceeding. Jeff took over and cleaned up the mess that was my case right away with no hesitation despite the very high conflict. He was very reasonable and understanding with my initial retainer and on...going payments - not something I had with any other attorney! Jeff handled a co-owned business separation and did not back down from difficult negotiations with the other party! Jeff helped me through the custody and support trials for two children and did an amazing job during multi-day trials. Always punctual and at every hearing, and always a phone call or email away - even on the weekend for a few emergencies I had to deal with regarding delicate custody issues. You will not meet or hire are more supportive attorney to help you with your case!

Great Lawyer

The first time I met with Mr. Graff. I was being sued for divorce. I already had a case on going overseas. Mr. Graff calmy reviewed the details of my case and devised a clear strategy. He clearly explained everything to me and reassured me everything would work out, just be patient and let him do his... work. Its clear he has a very strong grasp of the law, is very experienced, and professional. This is the kind of person you want representing you when the chips are down. I felt like he has taken my case very seriously. He always answers the phone and never leaves you hanging. He is completely up front about everything including trying to resolve your case with the absolute least amount of impact on you financially, emotionally, and time. He is the best attorney and I would recommend him to anyone in need of family law, divorce, custody, etc. When I needed help Mr. Graff was there. Again he is the best.

Excellent Legal Representation

Mr. Graff provided myself and my family with down to earth honest and realistic expectations in the process of divorce and child custody. He helped reassure me that there is life after divorce and guided me quickly through the process of child custody and divorce. He was always very helpful and quick... to respond to my many questions and concerns. If I had a problem he took action quickly to help relieve the suffering of myself and my son. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs family law help and wants a down to earth lawyer who is highly skilled in the field of family law. He helped our family more than I ever expected and was very reasonable.
