Neil S Holmes

I am a real estate broker, and I have worked with Neil on several occasions now to help him sell a home for a client. He is a pleasure to work with, and he works tirelessly in the best interest of his clients.

I highly recommend Neil and his Law firm to anyone needing an expert in family law. Any divorce is always nerve wracking and Neil was helpful and knowledgeable in all aspects of family law. He took the time to explain the process of child custody and made sure I felt comfortable with everything. He is a tremendously talented divorce attorney who genuinely cares about his client's best interests.

I wholeheartedly recommend Neil Holmes and Divorce for Men Only if you are going through any of the very emotionally taxing events such as a divorce, are dealing with child custody or support issues. It's hard enough to go through these things, so to know that the attorney you hired has your best interest in mind, is supportive and knowledgable, and also has years of experience, makes the process that much better. Thank you Neil and the whole Divorce for Men team!

I had been trying for almost 4 years to gain access to funds awarded to me by the courts during my divorce. I also had a problem with the ex-spouse not paying court-ordered support payments. Neil and his staff worked diligently and professionally to bring my case to a swift and just conclusion. He and his staff fought for me and my rights, and made me feel as though my case mattered.

Mr. Holmes made all the difference in the world in my son's recent custody case. His knowledge, professionalism, and genuine desire to do what's in the best interest of the children helped my son win his case. He is an expert in his field and has sincere empathy for what my son and grand-daughters were going through. Because of Mr. Holmes and his team my son won his custody case and my former daughter-in-law can not move my grand-daughters out of their current county, nor did she win "sole custody." Thank you Mr. Holmes , you are the BEST !

In a time when your heart is broken by promises long since forgotten and your faith destroyed by a level of deceit never before realized or even imagined, it becomes nearly impossible to trust anyone. So you try to fight alone. For so long your words and your efforts have been in vain. The will to survive is waning. Weary from the battles, the war rages on and the white flag is at the ready. Uncertain of what direction to take, frustrated by the barrage of rhetoric and confused by the perceived inequity of the rules of engagement. I took a chance and reached out for an advocate, I contacted Neil Holmes. His confidence is reflected in the professional, calm, straight forward way in which he speaks. Neil is patient and strives for clarity with each conversation and communication. He has demonstrated a thorough knowledge of the applicable laws and has represented me from a firm position. My intention was simply to receive fair treatment in the eyes of the Court. No malice or ill will intended. With Neil Holmes representation, I believe that goal will become a reality. Without Neil's representation, I can state with complete confidence that a gross injustice would have been committed.

I honestly didn't know there were attorneys like Neil Holmes out there. His first concern was about me and learning what ends I hoped to accomplish, even if it was reconciliation (which means no case or fees paid to him). At each step of the process, he not only kept me informed but shared various options, always pointing out which was the most cost-efficient. There were many tasks I was able to accomplish on my own (that I know other attorneys would do and charge for). He also was straightforward about disappointing news and always explained the legality behind it. His integrity is unmatched. If you're looking for an experienced attorney who is intelligent, strategic, focused and compassionate, I would highly recommend Neil.

If you want an attorney who will absolutely do nothing but take your money, this is your guy. He will let your ex take whatever she wants and sit there like a baby. He will ask for nothing and give everything

I paid for a divorce in full in 1992 when Mr.Holmes was with Jacoby & Meyers that was supposedly completed only to find out 2 years ago that I am still married and my case is still open online on the Superior Court website! When I contacted Mr. Holmes regarding this he told me he was not obligated to help me because I signed a document in 1993 for Dept. Of Child Support Serv. Stating I was not represented. I did not know that Mr. Holmes had not finished my divorce a year after we went to court for our final hearing! And I had to sign that document with DCSS in order to collect CS from my deadbeat (I thought) ex husband! So now after 25 years I have to start my divorce all over again and I am out the 3000.00 I paid to Jacoby and Meyers for my incomplete divorce. This attorney has no integrity and has no moral compass what so ever. He knows he is in the wrong and blatantly refused to correct it because of a document I signed so I could collect child support. I am filing a a complaint with the state bar assoc. and hopefully I can get some sort of resolution..beware of this attorney, retain at your own risk. Terri

I met with Neil for a $300 consultation to help me with a fairly straightforward child support modification. He said he only works by retainer. He agreed that it was straightforward and did not think it would require all of the $2,800 retainer. He said the balance would be kept in my account and could be used on an ongoing basis when/if I had questions. I paid the $2,800 retainer. He burned through it in the next 3 business days and firmly demanded another $750. I asked him for clarification on where all the hours were spent which he found personally offensive. From the moment I questioned his hours he went from responsive to incredibly unresponsive. I was de-prioritized as a client for questioning him. Last week I expressed my disappointment to him after waiting for nearly 3 weeks for a response to a basic question. In response he fired me as a client. Neil knows the law but he is incredibly arrogant. If you don’t mind tip toeing around his fragile ego and opening your bank account you will be fine. If you dare expressing any opinion about his work, his hours, or his fees you should be prepared to be fired as a client. BUYER BEWARE!!!
