Stephen Jay Kaufman

Steve helped me get through one of the most stressful (if not the most stressful) situations of my life. I have an 11 year old child of which some old custody paperwork fell through some cracks. Upon my knowledge of the mishap, I was referred to Steve through another attorney whom I have used for ot...her legal matters. I contacted Steve immediately and he was very concerned about my situation. He Immediately scheduled me to come in the very next day. Upon arrival at the appointment, he explained what we needed to do and he got right to work on my case. Steve informed me that I had a strong case and for me not to worry. He kept me informed regularly and was extremely knowledgeable in the way family court worked and would perceive my case. Long story short, everything ended up in my favor. Steve is an excellent litigator. Opposing counsel didn't have a chance.

My divorce took over two years and Stephen was there with his support, recommendations and knowledge. His ethical approach and direct manner assured and confirmed my decisions. Rather than make decisions for me, he informed me of all possible consequences and listened respectfully to my decisions. I ...recommend Mr. Kaufman as a fair, responsible, and competent attorney.

Stephen J. Kaufman is an outstanding lawyer and an honorable man. He first helped me get a TRO that all the other lawyers told me would be impossible to get He then helped me through a very drawn out divorce. He has always looked out for my best interests and fought for what he knew I deserved. H...e was succinct, always answered emails quickly, helped me to know what was important to fight for and what I could let go, and he made me feel safe in court. If there was a question that he didn't know, he would find out the information; my case was across state lines and that raised some unusual points. He was treated with respect by the opposing lawyer and the judge, and had anamazing way of talking with the oposing counsel that was disarming and effective. He kept a positive manner throughout the negioations and was forceful if it required it. I would reccomend him for a family lawyer.
