Hired Law Firm
I made the difficult decision to move on from my original divorce attorney at another firm as there was little progress and called Bari Weinberger who connected me with Robyn Howlett in the Freehold office. Within just a few months Robyn was able to make a breakthrough with my ex-wife's attorney and bring the case to a close. Without Robyn's persistence and direct approach, as well as her kindness and empathy for both sides, I'm almost certain the case would still be ongoing. After it was resolved Bari herself took the time to call me and see how I was doing. I would recommend her firm and Robyn to anyone looking for someone to be their best advocate during a difficult time, or maybe even someone like me who needs a change to get to the finish line.
I cannot express how grateful I am for the outstanding legal representation provided by Carmela during my divorce proceedings. From the beginning, she demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, empathy, and expertise that exceeded my expectations. She and her team guided me through every step of the process, making sure I understood my rights, options, and potential outcomes, providing reassurance during what was an incredibly difficult time in my life. Carmela demonstrated an in-depth knowledge of family law and a keen understanding of the emotional toll that divorce can take on individuals and families. She was not only my legal counsel but also a source of support and guidance. If you're searching for a divorce lawyer who will go above and beyond to protect your interests and provide invaluable support, Carmela is the attorney you need!
Several years after my divorce was finalized, I needed to petition the court for child support. I knew my ex would be opposed to it and while necessary, I found the very thought of going through the process overwhelming. I was struggling to figure out how to get started… how and if to approach my ex. After consulting with Christopher Garibian, a Partner with Weinberger Divorce & Family Law Group, I not only had a clear starting point, but I felt reassured that he wasn’t just after the retainer, but that he was willing and fully equipped to represent my kids’ and my best interests thoroughly and competently. He set my expectations of the process and even though I was ultimately unable to retain him, the help and support that he provided was invaluable and laid the foundation to winning my case.
Would recommend Weinberger Law. Every person I have worked with really treated my case as their own and walked me through the steps and kept me engaged and ahead of thinking about next steps and what to expect as part of my case
I'm so glad I retained Richard to represent me during my divorce which was just finalized. It could have been very long and contentious, but Richard did an amazing job of working with my ex's attorney to negotiate a fair agreement. He did everything he could to keep the legal costs down for me and kept meetings and correspondence brief, yet was always responsive. He has so much experience and knowledge working with divorce cases I felt very secure with his advice. In the end it came down to the wire and he jumped through hoops to get everything wrapped up for me quickly, and I am very pleased with the final outcome. I would highly recommend Richard to anyone.
After paying alimony for over 22 years, this law firm was successful at terminating my spousal support. Since 2001, I paid over $200,000 to an ex-wife who refused to work and help support her family. Now, I can finally say that my divorce is final! Please consider this law firm because they succeeded where four other law firms failed. My attorney, Ms. Carmela Novi, and her staff are extremely talented and professional. I highly recommend this law firm for all your legal needs. Christian H. Jung
I was referred to Aleida by a friend of mine who is a very well established attorney. I knew it was sound direction based on his experience and large circle of influence and I am forever grateful I took his advice. Aleida masterfully handled my case, and her compassionate interaction with my family was priceless.
I can not express in enough kind words how grateful I am to have had Robyn represent me. Robyn’s confidence, professionalism and calm demeanor alleviated all of anxieties and concerns around my divorce. Robyn truly is the best! If that wasn’t enough, Nancy and the office staff were just as kind and understanding! I am forever grateful! Thank you Robyn!
Great law firm to work with Robyn Howlett. They got the job done fast and quick. I actually found them on the Internet because I live in the state of Florida and they worked with me very well happy I found them.
Reviews
These client and peer reviews are from the Martindale-Avvo Legal Network.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
