Ralph Thomas Santoro Jr.

Ralph Santoro says what you want to hear but does not deliver. He has no respect for judges or his clients. I do not recommend this attorney or his firm. I advise you to find someone who is not trying to make a name for himself but knows the law. The only thing he did for me was bill me a lot of ...money and put me in debt.

A week before my family court hearing I was extremely upset with how my case was being handled by my previous attorney. I thought it would be an easy case but after my ex started making false accusations towards me along with his girlfriend and friends of theirs, I knew I needed a lawyer who was agg...ressive. From the first day I spoke with Mr. Santoro I knew everything would be ok. He is extremely knowledgeable with family law and made the most stressful time of my life a lot easier to deal with. He was well prepared for my hearing after such sort notice and still got me the outcome I wanted. The only thing I regret was that I did not hire him sooner.

I respect Mr. Santoro very much! He was honest and direct with me from the very beginning. He could have easily beat around the bush like the everyday lawyer; however, he focused on facts and law. He was thorough, knowledgeable, direct, aggressive, and confident. He counseled my Move Away request (wh...ich is not an easy thing to be granted) and I was granted to relocate to my home state. I would recommend this lawyer to anyone who is looking for a lawyer to fight for what they want.

Mr. Santoro helped me out in 2011 as we fought a move-away. He was conscientious and responsive. He worked hard to make sure he understood all the nuances of my case, and he aggressively represented me. If you want an attorney who you will be honest with you and someone you feel like you'll be abl...e to relate to as you work together, Mr. Santoro will be a good choice.

Ralph helped me with a very escalated child-custody situation, with results that exceeded my wildest expectations. He was extremely organized, responded to my multiple emails, phone calls, and inquiries quickly, concisely, and patiently (including on evenings and weekends), and guided me through the ...difficult and stressful process. Ralph excels at being objective, prepared, succinct, and goal-oriented with his outcomes. He prepped me for mediation, making sure I knew important points to discuss. He validated my concerns and guided me to focus on facts and details that helped my case, and he was able to help me keep emotion out of the equation (which is difficult, if not impossible, when your child is involved). When my situation required aggressiveness, he was not afraid to act quickly and forcefully, resulting in the opposing party having to concede to our requests/demands. His knowledge of the court systems, processes, procedures, and timelines helped me tremendously, as this was all new terrain for me. Ralph is intelligent, engaged, wants his clients to get their desired outcome, and genuinely cares about his work. He is assiduous and confident in a manner which best serves his clients--when in court or dealing with opposing counsel, one must seek an attorney that will go to bat 150%--this is Ralph.
