Melissa B Zemsky

During divorce negotiations a few years ago I felt I was always holding the short end of the stick. My ex-wife's attorney was by far the aggressor, and she sadly seemed to love the division and fighting which was not best for our family. As my income had slid (have my own business) I knew I had to ...renegotiate the unfair terms. My now girlfriend found Melissa after reading positive reviews online in a Facebook chat, and we subsequently met. I explained to Melissa I needed someone who would be very strong and firm, yet reasonable so I could just be done with this mess. I needed her to walk that tightrope. That's exactly what she did! When my ex wife found out I hired Melissa she changed attorneys herself as knew she didn't want to go to war as she'd lose. Melissa worked very hard yet never tried to run up my bill. She was very honest about what we should accomplish, and wasn't scared to tell me if I was ever pushing too hard. In the end we settled on a fair non modifiable consent order and stayed out of court. Melissa brought my monthly alimony from $6,500 down to $4,000! Melissa did an amazing job to get that result. Above all, what I will never forget is that on Father's Day the very 1st text message I received early that morning was from Melissa, wishing me a great fun day and saying she knows how deeply I love my 3 kids. It made my day. I highly recommend Melissa!

I hired Melissa Zemsky after having a horrible experience with an attorney from North Jersey. The attorney I hired at that firm was a woman (I wanted a female attorney), and I was immediately turned over to a male associate that I didn’t know, and I didn’t feel he was advocating for me. After ex...pressing my frustration to my Pastor, who worked in a courthouse for 26 years, he highly recommended Melissa Zemsky. In fact, he said “the only lawyer I would recommend to anyone going through what you are going through is Melissa Zemsky because she will put her heart and soul into every case. I have seen her in action”. I feel that Melissa was sent to me from Heaven. Being that I was so blindsided by my ex-husband, I feel that Melissa was honest, direct, efficient and was reasonable with her fees. She was result-oriented. Melissa brought my case to a quick conclusion. My case was lingering in Union County; Melissa came in, got me the results I needed let allowed me to finally move on with my life. I learned to love Melissa not only as a professional but also as a great human being that showed me how to be a stronger, more independent woman. I highly highly recommend Melissa to anyone that going through a divorce because I know how hard it could be.

I retained Ziegler & Zemsky while in the process of getting divorced after attending mediation and working with a different law firm initially. I chose Melissa Zemsky to take over my case because of her commitment to finalize my divorce in an efficient manner. She was extremely responsive, dedicat...ed, and direct. Melissa always gave me personal attention, guidance, and assurance whenever I needed it. Her paralegal Linda equally provided committed attention and outstanding service throughout the process. Ziegler & Zemsky is committed to their clients, attentive, and results-oriented! I highly recommend this firm.
