100% would recommend!!

Let me start with this - in the beginning my case was COMPLICATED. We are talking divorce, children, MULTIPLE moves to many different states by the opposing party, a jurisdiction issue to even get anything started, and we had a parenting plan from years before that was so old, inconsistent, and comp...letely irrelevant to the current situation. It was a mess. After working with Erica, in what I would consider a fairly short amount of time for a custody issue in family court, I was extremely grateful for her work. That being said, I would give Erica more than 5 stars if I could. She is incredible. Not only is she very knowledgeable and knows what she’s talking about, but she is also honest, straight to the point, and has wonderful time management. During my entire case she was so good at getting back to me and answering my questions (and I had A LOT). I truly had no idea what I was doing, I had never been to court or dealt with anything before this but she explained things to me and made sure I understood what was happening and what my options were. My case was for custody issues with a high conflict opposing party. She handled it perfectly. I never had to worry about not getting a response in a timely manner, or if I was walking into a situation without knowing what to do or not do. In the end, things were handled and she helped me accomplish exactly what needed to be done. She communicated with opposing parties attorney on exactly what needed to be handled at that time so everything moved along smooth. She was always on time for our scheduled meetings and very attentive to my concerns. I truly cannot say enough good things about her as an attorney. If you are searching for someone to represent you, Erica is it. I had multiple consultations before hiring her and I have heard/witnessed SO many horror stories that friends and family had with attorneys and I can say I had NO issues with her. Not a single one. Thank you so much Erica!

Tenacious Professional

I have retained Ms. Bertini and consulted with her on a number of legal matters. She has a certain tenacity that is unlike any other. I find her to be trustworthy, diligent, competent, and professional. While it’s hard to find a reliable attorney these days, Ms. Bertini has earned my trust.

Excellent lawyer

I hired Erica to represent me in a very messy divorce. She has always gone above and beyond to assist me with all the issues that have come up along the way. She very obviously really cares about her clients. She has helped me get a better than anticipated outcome and has helped me all the way throu...gh the final process. I have recommended her to many people already and I will continue to refer to her in the future. You won’t find a better advocate for you with your divorce.

"I worked opposite Erica when I was a public defender, and she was a district attorney. Erica was always professional and understood what was important in the criminal justice system. Later, Erica and I worked together at a private firm doing both criminal and family law. There, I saw how Erica excelled at family law and was always able to secure great results for her clients, whether in resolving cases through mediation or taking the case to trial. Since then, I have seen Erica work within the legal community to better the profession and have seen continued high-achieving results from her legal practice. She is a great attorney who should be trusted with any family or criminal law case."
