Posted by Christopher | September 18, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Divorce

Ron was an excellent lawyer throughout the entire process of the divorce. He values the opinion of his clients but always remains the clear voice of reason when emotions become overwhelming. He respects his clients and understands their rights as parents. When the odds are seemingly stacked against h...is clients he finds ways to even the playing field. His attention to detail and ability to articulate an argument in court greatly contributes to his success and his client's satisfaction. I would recommend Ron Nerio to anyone who needs help with family law. You want him in your corner when it matters most.

I would Highly Recommend Ronald Nerio

Mr. Nerio is a very well educated attorney with great customer service. I contacted Mr Nerio to get advice on Estate Planning and some family law questions. He not only answered all my questions very clearly with verbage I understoon, but he also pointed out different options I have to achieve my go...al, and steered me toward the path to take. I really appreciate and trust Mr. Nerio, and would highly recommend him to my family, friends, and clients.

Handled our Prenup

Ron was great to work with in preparing our Prenuptial Agreement. He was communicative, got back to us quickly, and the process went very smoothly.

Highly Skilled, Compassionate Professional

At the recommendation of a friend, I reached out to Mr. Nerio in late summer 2016 over a landlord/tenant dispute in my building. While I was informed his specialty was Family Law, I reached out to him anyway, hoping I could get some quality legal advice from a trusted source. I was not disappointed; ...Mr. Nerio was kind, exceptionally polite, and incredibly responsive. He thoroughly reviewed all documentation I presented, and answered all questions I had in regards to the incident. Because of the high quality legal advice I received from Mr. Nerio, I feel I am much better informed as to how to protect myself against my untrustworthy landlord in the future. Mr. Nerio's passion, integrity, and professionalism are unequivocal. I enthusiastically recommend him as a competent, trustworthy professional.

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.
