David Andrew Bodney

Although I would have preferred a mediated divorce, my ex wanted to fight it out with lawyers. I reluctantly asked around and, after false starts with others, landed in David Bodney's office. What a stroke of fortune. David's confident—but not cocky—demeanor granted me a much-needed measure of calm a...nd relief as he explained how things would go, with just the right level of detail. My divorce took almost two years to complete. Along the way were court filings, measures and counter-measures, court appearances (pre-Covid), a 3-hour deposition with my ex's attorneys, a re-start when she fired her attorneys and hired a new one, and finally a negotiated settlement just before the final court date. At each step of the process, David outlined what to expect, what was unpredictable, and what steps we could take to protect my interests and our kids. I felt expertly counseled. He was very efficient with his time and my money and I always felt that his interest was aligned with my own—to get through the process as quickly and fairly as possible. His staff was thorough and timely. Although he's a busy guy, he always found time to either answer my calls or respond quickly. I have nothing but good to say about David Bodney. A good friend had a very similar experience so there's another vote of confidence. Family law is a tough arena to operate in. David has the just the right touch for it.
