Best NJ Family Law Attorney!

Dina was my attorney for 7 years and was an integral part of my and my children's lives when it came to post-divorce motions and ensuring visitation, child support recalculations, enforcement of litigant's rights/court orders, and many more contentious issues. She is by far the best attorney I have e...ver worked with. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of family law services. She takes a fair approach; and advises you to take the high road and do what's right in the eyes of the court. Thank you, Dina!

Exceptional Representation

Dina represented me in a very unusual and complicated child services case. I happen to be an attorney myself and have worked with numerous attorneys in my professional career. Dina is one of the best attorneys and advocates that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Dina is an expert in ch...ild services case law and regulations, and her expertise benefited my family as her representation was flawless. If you are reading these reviews and looking for a great attorney, stop reading the reviews and call Dina. You will not find another attorney who knows more about the law and represents you in such an ethical and caring manner as Dina.

Excellence in Advocacy

My case was an extremely painful matter involving a minor child. Attorney Dina Mikulka was an incredible balance of empathy, strategy and legal brilliance. She understood the facts and circumstances of the matter as well as the potential impact on the child. She quickly coordinated a solution to prot...ect the child in a manner that would bring dignity to an otherwise disgraceful situation. I cannot overstate my gratitude and satisfaction for the compassionate representation of Attorney Dina Mikulka. For any family matter, I would choose no one else.

Our saving Grace! Smarter than smart, kindness unsurpassed. Relentless and Brilliant.

Dina is the most amazing person first of all and the BEST attorney when you need help. My case has been to protect my grandson. It has gone on now for 2 years. I want to say my case is unusual. Usually it doesn't take this long. Dina, saw and headed off so many things to protect my grandson. NEVER GA...VE UP...not once did she stop fighting for us. Within these past two years I have had many ups and downs, however Dina never did, always the positive force driving me forward. Giving me honest expectations all the way. Not once did I ever look back over my shoulder. I didn't have too..Dina had our backs 100%. Our case was vital for the safety of a baby...what could be more moving than the safety and well-being of a little boy? When I tell you from my heart and soul, we wouldn't be where we are today if not for Dina. I have the great privilege to not only call her the FINEST attorney, but also trusted friend. Trust me you want her on your side..NOT against it! If not for Dina Mikulka God only knows what would have happened to my grandson. It is my honor and pleasure to write this about Dina. Thank you always Dina, YOU ARE THE BEST!

2nd to none representation from Dina Mikulka

When I needed attorney representation for a matrimonial matter out of my county, I asked a dear friend who is an esteemed, well respected attorney in my county for a recommendation. Without hesitation or pausing for one single second, she said "Dina Mikulka is the attorney you need to contact". Well,... the experience and expertise from Dina and the entire team at Sparta Family Law was certainly 2nd to none. From my initial phone call to the firm and speaking with Dina to my final, most favorable result in court in my divorce matter, she made it all seem almost painless. Dina was truly incredible both inside and outside the courtroom. She was absolutely brilliant and patient in her explanation of the law and was very clear on what I should and should not expect. Ms. Mikulka was also someone who listened and treated me as a person and not just a client she had to represent. I could not have been more pleased with the representation she provided for me. The rapport that she has with people, her colleagues, the judge etc, is exemplary. That, I believe, is what gave me the most favorable and best outcome that I could have hoped for. I understood that there was a chance of a much more unfavorable outcome, but Dina, with her confidence and many years of expertise in matrimonial disputes, made sure that that did not happen. From the start with my separation agreement, until the final judgement of divorce, she was very clear, concise and walked me through the entire process. Dina truly enjoys her job and it is certainly reflected in the way that she shows compassion and care for those that she represents. I am very pleased and grateful that she was recommended to me and that I chose her and Sparta Family Law to represent me in this matter. The diligence, experience, compassion and expertise from all those at this firm is nothing short of awesome. Dina Mikulka truly showed that she cared for this client and certainly helped me through some of the not so pleasant days. I would certainly recommend any family member or friend to retain her for any marital or family law matters. Dina is absolutely and excellent attorney.
