Supportive

From the moment I first met Nick, he listened to my saga and was supportive in his comments and his outlook. He was right by my side during the heat of the discussions and he made sure I felt comfortable with both the atmosphere and the outcome. I'm very grateful he was my attorney. His support sta...ff is awesome too!

Divorce and Child Support

Nick is honestly one of the best lawyers i’ve ever hired in my lifetime. He’s a critical thinker, very thorough, and isn’t conventional. I shopped around for some time and then I was referred to Nick. After talking to him during the consultation, I knew I wanted hire him. When I was served, he didn’t... hesitate informing the court of venue that he was my representation. He handled my case as professionally and expeditiously possible. Anyone reading this review should at least go in for a consultation if you’re considering a divorce or even a child support modification. Nick will definitely protect and exercise your rights in the courtroom.

Professional and Involved

Mr. Mourtos was the best person I could have picked to help me with my divorce. He understood that I only had so much money that I could afford to spend and he did everything in power to keep my costs as low as possible. My exwife's lawyer was very cruel and heartless and Nick was not. He understood ...that children were involved and protected them from being part and hearing things that were said. Mr. Mourtos was able to guide me in the proper direction when I wanted to make emotional decisions based on anger. He is a true leader in the courtroom and I understand why he came highly recommend by his peers.

If your looking for a lawyer. You found him!!

I have never written a review before, but for Nick I will. I have been a client of nicks for a few years, and had to call upon his services very recently , he is a straight shot and works hard with a passion , wants you to understand everything that is happening and where to go the right way. He care...s and so does his paralegal Roxann I have heard from both of them before and after court just to make sure I was ok! That means a lot with all the stress of family court they slowed down just to see if I was ok... My case is not over yet... Almost! I hope,but my out comes with Nick in my corner have been very good and as a Father needing my rights Nick has guided me in all the right directions. I would highly recommend Nick to anyone!!! As he is not only my lawyer but also a friend!

Post Divorce Client

Nick understood the complexities of NJ family law for my situation and clearly explained them in layman's terms so I could be an informed client on what to expect throughout the legal process. This clarity from the beginning ensured I was prepared to mount a successful defense strategy. Nick was resp...onsive and available throughout the process and I would recommend anyone take a look at him during your selection process of locating a lawyer.
