The best

Mine was a complex divorce after many years of marriage. Mr. Reni’s compassionate, professional, and calm manner was always reassuring and his sense of humor appreciated. He kept me informed and involved in every step of the process, answered any and all questions promptly through phone or e-mail a...nd used mediation as an effective tool in the end. Paul and Laura, his paralegal, always made me feel like I was their favorite client. I found his integrity unquestionable, his knowledge thorough, and his years of experience a real asset. I highly recommend him as someone who will listen to your concerns and fight for your interests.

One of the Best Decisions I've Made

Paul Reni helped me resolve a sadly acrimonious divorce case. His expertise and professionalism allowed me to patiently weather the process, which, in my opinion was unnecessarily lengthy. Paul kept my spirits up with his intelligent and light-hearted communication style. He was able to understan...d and honestly articulate my side of the story and my feelings without being offensive. In fact, his diplomacy enabled him to get along with cantankerous opposing counsel. Paul is straightforward, upfront about what he can and cannot do, and how much it will cost. He has a very good memory for details and guided me to use good judgment. In spite of best efforts, our attempt at the mediation process failed, yet ultimately, Paul was able to keep the case from going to court. Working with Paul made a tremendous, positive difference in the train-wreck of my divorce; because of him, I not only survived, but I am happy and thriving today.
