Posted by Brett | May 21, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Great litigator, had a judge reverse himself

Alan represented me post trial in a matter where the judge denied me shared custody and had me paying more than I possibly could in awards and alimony to my ex-spouse. I hired Alan with the specific goal of reversing this order, and he had the judge actually reconsider key points of the original orde...r. I received shared custody and the judge greatly reduced the monetary awards and payments to my ex-spouse. Since then, the relationship with my children has been great, I have been able to provide for them, and can continue living comfortable. As an added bonus, Alan represented me when my spouse appealed the judge's new order. He successfully argued in front of appellate judges. Alan is knowledgeable and courteous. He fights hard against opposing counsel. I cannot say enough good things about him.

A voice of reason

Alan handled a very long, complicated, emotionally draining and contentious divorce involving not only custody but a jurisdiction dispute. He was professional, understanding, and stayed on point, and he kept me from doing anything stupid. You can’t go wrong with this guy!

Divorce and separation lawyer | Nov 30

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Alan Solomon for many years. Although my connection with him has been primarily in serious criminal cases and a probate case, I know of his work on domestic relations cases as well. I have handled complicated cases with him, and have also spoken at length with him about other cases. More important, I have watched his work in court. I think Alan is not only one of the smartest lawyers I know, he is also amazingly quick-witted. He can absorb the salient facts and discover the issues and get up to full speed on a case while most other attorneys are still getting their legal pads out of their briefcases. He sees and understands the whole picture with lightening-like speed. I have discussed cases and strategy on cases with him, and have always found his opinions to be insightful and right on point. He is able to cut through the fluff and hone in on the heart of the issue quicker than most people I have ever known. I would highly recommend him for any type of legal case."
