Extremely grateful

During a very stressful family time for us, we could not have been better taken care of. Our attorney, Ron Nerio, along with our paralegal, Jess Buckley, provided us with not only professionalism and an extreme amount of wisdom, but, they also exhibited compassion and were very caring. Ron took over... our case more than halfway through and he handled the transition with extreme grace and skill. Family matters can be very emotionally taxing, and, painful. I felt them there for us, they were our rock at a time when we needed that support. Ron stepped right in as if he had been our attorney all along. They helped us hang on to our strength and we will be forever grateful to them. I am also happy to say that the out come was all that we hoped, and, they went above and beyond to be sure that a small child's best interests were met

Absolutely amazing

He helped me with a very difficult case, and I was able to move away with my daughter. Ron went above and beyond to help me through one of the most challenging and stressful situations in my life. He was striaght forward, respectful and honest. I truly felt like I could reach out to him with any conc...erns or worries and he'd take the time to help ease my mind. I honestly felt like he truly cared about my case and understood my situation. He goes above and beyond to help, and I am SO thankful for him and his help.

Compassion and Competence Throughout

Ron assisted me with a complicated and, frankly, embarrassing divorce matter. My aim was to keep things as amicable as possible with my ex-husband, and Ron offered me advice on how to de-escalate stressful interactions and safeguard my financial interests. He patiently talked me through every questio...n I had about my divorce and ensured that, but the end, all my i's were dotted and t's were crossed. I felt he was on my team the entire time and, in no small part due to his advice and competence, my kids' dad and I now have a healthy co-parenting relationship.

Extremely knowledgeable!!

Ron went above and beyond with my case. Every time I had a question, whether it was regarding next steps in the case, which paperwork I needed to keep to develop my "paper trail" against my ex, if I should answer phone calls, even what to wear to court, he never made me feel stupid and always took th...e time to make me feel comfortable with the situation. When I had to travel overseas he helped me make sure the appropriate legal documents were filed to ensure I wasn't going against my court order. He was able to help my ex and I come to a compromise regarding summertime custody visitation which up until then had been impossible. He is able to not only help find a path that will work for both parties but do so in a manner that feels like you have the best defender possible looking out for your best interests.
