Jessica Sprague was extremely knowledgable and made me very comfortable. I would definitely recommend her to everyone. She was amazing

This company does a great job at prolonging the amount of money they can get from you while accomplishing nothing. I spent 18k and still was not close to a resolution because I took their “professional” advice. When I went to court my attorney Dianna Cavaliere instead sent her paralegal. On top of that they claim I owe money even though I always paid in advance. My advice is to stay away.

Knowledgeable, but not affordable. Sell a kidney before you go.

Great marketing, smiling faces, impressive professional degrees and associations, 5 star ratings? After a short honeymoon period where all necessary documents are written and filed in a timely fashion and clients are directed on how to proceed with the important CIS form, then the real Weinberger Law Group shows its true colors with mechanical, robotic lawyering at its best. After three information gathering appointments, I never spoke to any lawyer again ever. Only contact I had was with an email address which cost at least $40 per email message. No one informed me when my case was transferred from one office to another. When I asked the new assigned lawyer if I was going to be charged for the new office to be informed of my case they assured me not and then when the monthly bill came it showed the transition charges. I estimate at least $2000 in overages and spent what seems like more time with the billing department than on my case. I raised this billing issue in July 2018, went to a new attorney in September 2018. As I am writing this review in February 2019, I have still yet to receive any money that firm agreed to refund to me ($640).

WLG lies, the client has no rights and their accounting department rules. I cut the cord with WLG when I realized that I was being abused. I found a wonderful caring lawyer who had to put form and structure to a mess of a case inherited from WLG. Stay away from big firms with convenient offices all over the state.

I am very disappointed in the service I received. I was promised a lot, and in return I did not get anything. Now, I owe over $14K for the service and felt like nothing acted in my favor. There was a lack of researched and communication that was conducted on my case, and I felt like I was cheated and the case was more favorable to the defendant. I am a mother and taking care of a child and I ended up paying this higher bill and no alimony was giving and no settlement. I barely make money to support my daughter and other bills. My Ex who owns a business got away with paying nothing. Even in the court, it didn't seem like my lawyer was working for me. I felt like I wasted all my time and money in hiring a lawyer from this firm. How is this a justice?

I had a horrible, absolutely terrible expirence with Matthew Gerber as my attorney for my divorce. It’s been almost 6 months, after spending 10k, my divorce is still not finalized and after Matthew giving me bad advice over and over again, I had to fire him. A paperpusher, who does little to nothing, accomplishes nothing he says he will. Gave me the run around over and over again. I am extremely disappointed in this law firm. Over time I could barely reach Matthew on the phone, but his office was quick to bill me thousands of dollars for doing absolutely nothing. Worse “attorney” I have ever hired.

Bari and her staff are very knowledgeable about the law. They are real professionals and I write this as a lawyer who does not practice in this area. Most importantly, Bari cares about her clients and you do not see that too often with other lawyers.

I was very impressed with my attorney’s attention to detail. After attempting to fill in my CIS on my own, I brought with me to my free consultation. She was able to go through my CIS and point out to me all the places where she wanted to know more about my typical living expenses (as part of alimony calculations). In that one conversation, she uncovered literally thousands in hidden household costs that I didn’t even know I could include – all without me paying her a dime! I was so impressed that I retained right then and there. It was the best decision I have ever made! I have a great divorce settlement and feel so good about my future.

Weinberger Law Group and Ms. Raquel Vallejo delivered! A divorce is something that I personally never thought imaginable. In one of the most difficult moments in my life Raquel Vallejo delivered! Raquel fought hard for me and it’s today that I am happy with the outcome of the divorce. Not only was I awarded joint, shared, legal and physical custody of my son but also no alimony and child support! I never thought this was imaginable but Raquel Vallejo made it happened. During this long 8 month process Raquel was there every step of the way and was on top of things. This horrible experience of divorce was eased by the efforts of Raquel Vallejo. I was recommended to the Weinberger law firm but I am so glad I was given Raquel Vallejo as my lawyer in this process. From the very first time I met her she provided me with my options and also what to expect in this divorce process and from the New Jersey Courts. I never had to hound or be behind Raquel Vallejo because she was in constant communication with me. When I had questions she would respond to me within minutes. One of the things I admire about Raquel Vallejo is that she had her paperwork on point and she is very well organized. When we went to court and the other parties did not have their paperwork or said something wasn’t given to them Raquel Vallejo had her copies with the dates stamped on it. It was amazing! At the end of the day Raquel Vallejo delivered and I highly recommend and endorse her to anyone going through a horrible experience such as a divorce or custody battle. I am extremely satisfied with the representation and services of Raquel Vallejo. Last but not least Raquel Vallejo did not only treat me as a client but she also treated me as a person going through a horrible experience and she has a tremendous heart! I owe my life and everything I have to Raquel Vallejo. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!

Jessica Ragno Sprague did a superb job freeing me from the permanent alimony I paid my ex-wife for the 17 years since we separated. Thanks to Jessica's hard work, preparation, guidance and court arguments, I was free to retire at age 66. She was instrumental in my ability to finally stop a brutal daily 90-mile round trip commute, for the first time in 40 years.

(Translated by Google) My experience with lawyer Carmela L. Novi in ​​2014 was the most terrible thing you can hear from a lawyer, her only presence in court lasted no more than an hour, including that she was late for the court date. That day he told me it was $ 900 that would not exceed $ 1000 finishing my case. Of the $ 3,500 I deposited he continued inventing billed without my authorization and today I owe him supposedly more than $ 6000 I do not recommend it to anyone. I have not seen my daughter for more than 5 years.

Mi experiencia con la abogada Carmela L. Novi en el año 2014 fue la más pésima que puedan escuchar ustedes de un abogado su única presencia en la corte no duró más de una hora incluyendo que llegó tarde a la cita de la corte . Ese día me dijo que eran $900 que no pasaría de $1000 terminando el caso mío . De los $3500 que le deposite siguió inventando billed sin mi autorización y hoy por hoy le debo supuestamente más de $6000 no se la recomiendo a nadie . Llevo más de 5 años sin ver a mi hija .

(29-Oct-19) Just want to wrap this up. I did talk to the office manager Brian on the phone about what happened and he agreed that they could do something to improve the service. Nevertheless, the vast incompetency and bad (even naive) attitude demonstrated by the attorneys mentioned below were simply disappointing and unacceptable.
(27-Apr-18) To Sam at WLG. I just saw your reply and emailed my information to you (I was your client and worked with Allison Holzman and Alison M. Dunn as mentioned in my review below)
(2-Apr-18) Just to close the loop on this. With the help from the other firm (Townsend, Tomaio & Newmark), my custody case was finally settled after going on trial half way and I received the desirable result. Due to the mishandling of the case by Weinberger initially, I ended up spending ~100k on the case. It was such a horrible story. Here is my opinion on attorneys I worked with:
Allison Holzman: completely horrible, no expertise and has bad attitude
Alison M. Dunn: she did show her caring, but really did not have much knowledge/experience.
As mentioned below, I tried very hard to discuss the issues with Weinberger's management, even by calling the number they left below. But never received any proper response.
(27-Jun-17) The manager of the office called me back and did not appear to care about anything. I spent more than $1000 in May to just have them identify a parenting evaluator, for which they amazingly failed to provide a proper option. Given the size of the firm, it is very surprising to know that they have actually little experience with parenting evaluation at all. I ended up switching to another firm and things final got back on track. The other firm identified two excellent evaluators within 10 minutess of consultation. The last thing you need during a divorce is incompetent attorneys with bad attitude. So please consider staying away from Weinberger Law Group, which has little expertise and is certainly horribly managed.
(4-May-17) I need to update this since I just called the number in the response today as instructed in your response to look for solutions. The lady answering the phone did not know what I was talking about. I left a message to the office manager in the Parsippany office.
(Dec-16) I am editing the response here to confirm that I am a current client of Weinberger Law Group. Allison Holzman was the attorney I felt very frustrated with (ineffective and inefficient work, bad attitude) and I switched off from her.
(Oct-16) I have been spending more than a year and around $15k on my divorce case with this firm. So far, I have not even been to ESP. They basically just want to please the attorney from the other side, and let them drag things along. My clear questions regarding the progress and next step got ignored so many times. I certainly regret my choice, which I have to stick with for now.

Bari is an excellent attorney, helped me a lot on my case, especially to defeat the malevolent and greedy alimony that raised by the ex in the trial. Their service is costly, but it is good professional service with high quality. I recommend Bari and her team.

My lawyer Raquel was by far the best. I say this because she worked with me in every way.
She answered all my emails right away and always made me feel at ease even with everything felt like it was falling apart.
I would recommend this Law Group especially Raquel to anyone i know because i personally know they will be in the best hands.

Raquel was amazing from the beginning. She pays such close attention to detail and was very quick with her replies whenever I had a million questions because I was panicking. She made the entire process as stress free as it could be.

If what I got was the best the firm could offer in the way of representation they need to re-check themselves! Went in after ex stopped paying alimony..they knew up front I had taken a loan from work and was desperately struggling because I had tried to work it out with ex over and over and was stuck in my lease.. I was told right up front 'NO..he can't do that..plus judges hate when they take matters into own hands' .. I was NEVER told there was even a chance he could get away with it or more importantly that there was no enforcement other than wage attachment (he is currently appealing his declined SSD)..the night before court my lawyer said he was 'working on some ways to enforce' the tentative that was in my favor..tells me the day of court there is no other way..that would have been nice to know BEFORE..like when I first walked in!! He could have been honest and said YES..he can do this ..we can go to court but legally no guarantee of any enforcement...that would have helped me make a more informed decision! He knew the SSDI situation up front..During my time with Weinberger twice I was NOT told my lawyer was out..first time with family issue and everything was on hold but I was not informed..that was 2 weeks..found out only because I wasn't being responded to and called them ..I was getting anxious from not hearing from him..finally after weeks he was back..then again after a few more weeks ..more silence ...found out he was out with concussion but they were going to 'turn me over' to another attorney since no idea when he would be back..they NEVER stated she was a 'more expensive' lawyer and are now billing me the additional for her even though none of this was my doing or fault...after meeting with new lawyer the original lawyer ended up in court with me and I found out that morning he had been out 4 weeks and was not allowed to be on his phone or computer, etc! This was first week back..When we got into court (after him telling me my tentative which was totally in my favor rarely gets changed) he was totally scattered in his thoughts (even my brother saw and stated as much and said we were totally 'outgunned') and YES..I do believe his concussion and it's severity affected my representation...and he then stated to the judge out loud that I would have been better off financially if my ex had DIED. (I had told him all along my ex was using every thing he could to make me look bad to my kids..I even changed paperwork to make sure it was not vicious in any way) He later sent me email after court about how he and the judge joked about that comment because the judge couldn't believe he said that. That it took the 'air right out of the room' the judge said..now my kids are frosty with me and I believe it's because of that statement getting back to them through his lawyer ..WHY say such a thing in court? The judge then changed everything in the tentative and my ex is already back in contempt after my so called 'win'..and I’m out another $700...and now after me giving them everything I had financially thinking my tentative would give me at least some financial relief (now I have to go to court by myself to file contempt AGAIN)..they sent me a huge bill (with more expensive lawyer fee added) and the interest they are charging me?? is MORE than the small payment I can afford to give them each month! I’m just trying to get back on my feet by moving, taking money out of my retirement (with penalties and fees) to pay the work loan..My lawyer says I WON??? What did I win? Only thing I won? Was a huge bill and enormous interest...a blown apart retirement and estranged kids! As I said..if THAT is their best???? I'm so much worse off than when I walked in that day! He should have been honest ...that the ex COULD do what he is doing!!!!! They called me a 'favorite' client..were they nice enough people? Sure..so am I..very nice ...but I wasn't paying for niceness to me.. I was paying for someone to go up an abusive, controlling ex who took the law into his own hands! And that is NOT what I got!!

I had many sleepless nights before meeting with my attorney. Within minutes of explaining what was going in my divorce, I could tell that I was in great hands. I was asked thoughtful questions, and I knew I was being listened to when I answered. Every step of the process, she made sure I understood our options and choices, and that I agreed on our approach. She was amazing in court, and I was very happy with the result of my settlement. I spoke to quite a few lawyers, trying to find the right one. I felt comfortable from day one with Weinberger Law Group and am so happy I made the right decision.

When you have to fight for custody, you need a powerhouse. Thats exactly what I got at Weinberger Divorce & Family Law Group. My lawyer fought hard to get me custody of my kids and to help protect them from the legal wrangling behind the scenes by getting an agreement up-front from my ex about how she would behave. Now the kids are happy as they get to live with both of us, and I get to be a stable figure in their lives. Thank you to the whole Weinberger team!

I really didn’t know which divorce lawyer would be right for me. You don’t realize that there are so many different ’types', but I am so happy I picked Weinberger law group. I needed someone who could see through my ex’s BS and who could push for a great settlement: hard negotiation, but not a big battle in court. And I got the best in at Weinberger Law. No nonsense approach, a really savvy plan for the divorce, great communication, they did what they said they would do throughout, and now I have what I needed from my divorce. My kids and I didn’t have to leave our home, they didn’t lose their dad, and he and I are on decent terms because of the way my lawyer dealt with everything: fair and smart. Highly recommend!

When the credit is given, credit is given. I will always be thankful to the attorneys at the Weinberger Law group (Bari, Jessica, and Erin). Looking back, my case was not so simple. The fact I was living in Maryland while my physical custody was taking place in Jersey, it required a family who knew what they were doing and a family attorney who was willing to walk the extra mile and never said no to my concerns. I am glad that I had them on my side! They are known to the court and respected by the judges in the state of New Jersey!

Bari was more than more great, a true inspiration. Jessica Ragno Sprague, esq: Good luck to any other family attorney who thinks to go up against her in front of the judge! Erin Brueche, esq: Excellent, soccer striker, she does not miss!

What’s truly special about that will always resonate with me for a very long time is that the firm never left me alone in that dark tunnel while my physical custody was being finalized.

A HUGE THANK YOU to The Weinberger Law Group (Parsippany) , Komal Ullah Esq., Jaclyn Kahn Esq. and Bari Weinberger Esq. I have to mention all three because each deserve an acknowledgment of their family law expertise like no other attorneys that you may find. The Weinberger Law Group has represented me in my post divorce litigation for over 4 years and has always risen above and beyond any adversary. The amount of knowledge just one of these great attorneys I mentioned posses, is equivalent to a handful of others. For the curious looking at reviews, for those looking to hire top notch attorneys, I am a male and praise The Weinberger Law Firm and their Prestigious group. My post divorce litigation involved obtaining more parenting time with my children, parenting time obstruction by my ex-wife, child support, constant false allegations of domestic violence and pretty much a large list of evilness brought forth in motions filed by her. Komal Ullah Esq. and Jaclyn Kahn Esq. have recently (6/2016) represented me in an extremely lengthy matter with my ex-wife which could have HAD significant impact in my livelihood. Once again, I had no worry in the world with this firm representing me, even against her “big shot” attorneys who cost her double. If you truly want the Best, most Knowledgeable, feel Comfortable because they care about Your case, so you can Rest assured attorneys, The Weinberger Law Group is where you can find them.

WLG instantly provided 100% professionalism and attentiveness throughout the entire process, and Erin, the lawyer assigned to me, was top-notch. She was knowledgeable, a superb listener, allowing me much input, and adapted to my needs. Not surprisingly, the divorce settlement was light years better than what a previous lawyer had attained for me. Would recommend Erin and WLG to anyone.

I was represented by attorney Alison Dunn and had an excellent experience. In moments of anxiety, she was calming and knowledgeable and assuaged my fears and on the final and most taxing day she was a steadying influence and excellent company. She was also financially aware and took care to avoid doubling work between attorneys. I often have heard stories of people feeling quite taken advantage of - this was the opposite. Bari Weinberger introduced herself and wished us good luck at the end, an appreciated personal touch. Would highly recommend the firm and Alison Dunn.

In looking for an attorney to represent my sister for her divorce, our two requirements were: 1. English-Spanish Bilingual, and 2. Experienced in family law. We found this and more when we met Ms. Raquel Vallejo, Esq. from Weinberger Law Group. Raquel was always honest and forthright with us from the very beginning and especially during the most difficult times. There were no surprises, as she told us what to expect. She handled my sister’s domestic violence charge and her divorce case with zealousness. She is a professional who demonstrates integrity and her knowledge of the law is unparalleled. I especially liked that she is a caring and humble individual, something that cannot be said of all lawyers.

Throughout the long, arduous, and contested divorce Raquel was able to maintain the utmost level of professionalism while handling tough and emotional situations involving my sister. She did an excellent job at providing sound and consistent advice regarding custody and alimony, as well as during mediation. She was very responsive to our questions and always well prepared for court.

I found Raquel to be approachable and she kept us well informed throughout the entire process. We were kept up to date with all communications between adversary and court, and we always had important calendar dates and reminders well in advance.

We have nothing but excellent things to say about Ms. Raquel Vallejo. She is a dedicated professional who truly cares about her clients and she works hard for them. We are glad to have found a competent attorney who we now call a friend. (On a personal note, I really appreciated how she genuinely cared about my sister's mental and emotional wellbeing throughout this entire process.) We highly recommend her....you will not be disappointed.

I went to this form for services. The initial consult was fantastic. After that it all went down hill.

Over a 3 month period I consistently had emails not returned or responded to. My spouses attorney didn't have emails responded to. I asked for a word version of the agreement so I could put in my personal bank info and other details. My request was repeatedly ignored.

They charge a monthly fee of 75$ as part of the "overhead charge". I was still charged overhead for months where I had no work (not even email or phone correspondence) done for me and had to try to refute this. Even after that they only reduced the charge.

To make matters worse after I finally got everything wrapped up I asked for my remaining retainer returned and I had to either email them a photo copy of my credit card or physically go in ( I work over an hour away). They wouldn't mail me a check!

Carmela Novi has proven to be the real deal when it comes to long term problem solving with Divorce and Family Law issues. Several of my friends have used Carmela and consider her to be compassionate with their cases. She is an expert in her field and knows when to use her skills to protect the client. I will continue to recommend Carmela based on all the great feedback and success she has gained in her cases.

Komal took my mess of a custody situation and handled it with professionalism and a superior display of legal knowledge. She has a great mix of a gentle personality and the aggression needed to ensure I was treated fairly. I have and will continue to recommend to others. She doesn't try to run up your bill unnecessarily. She was efficient and very thorough.

Mr. Tuchman was my lawyer in a child support case, one that I personally didn't think would ever get resolved. With one phone conversation I had a feeling I was in the best hands possible and sure enough I was. Jason Tuchman and Samantha Goldberg are unbelievably caring. They dealt with all my calls, concerns and emails in a very professional and very timely manner. I was beyond happy with the results. Thank you Jason and Samantha you both were great! best decision I made during a very difficult time.

My recent experience with Raquel Vallejo and the Weinberger Law Group was amazing. Ms. Vallejo explained the entire process to me on our first meeting.
She was very understanding and compassionate during this long drawn out process, due to my Ex dragging everything out for well over a year.
With the guidance and knowledge of Raquel and the law firm I believe the outcome was better then most. Ms. Vallejo always kept me informed of the issues and what needed to be done to help resolve them. Ms. Vallejo always took the time to explain everything to me, and I always heard back from her in a timely manner whenever I had questions. I am forever grateful to Raquel and I would highly recommend Raquel Vallejo and the Weinberger Law Group

I don't like lawyers, but from the first time I talked to Jason Tuchman about my divorce, he put me at ease -- since I am out of the state, it was really important that I found an attorney I could trust. He and his paralegal, Sammantha, were amazing, attentive, and patient with me and the now ex-husband. I am so grateful to both of them for everything they did!

I had a great experience working with Jason Tuchman and his paralegal, Sammantha Goldberg. They were both supportive and professional. I remember feeling nervous walking into Jason’s office for the first time for the consultation and Jason made me feel at ease and honestly, changed my impression of lawyers! He was very straight forward and provided me with answers to the questions that I needed to prepare myself for the divorce. He was responsive, knowledgeable and reasonable. Sammantha was very knowledgeable and helpful as well and gave me sound advice. I appreciate their keeping my financial interest in mind and providing me with different options to resolve issues. I appreciate their professionalism and would highly recommend them.

I have the highest respect and confidence in Bari Weinberger and the Weinberger Law Group. While the break up of a long-term marriage can blind side you, and bring with it so many concerns and demands, divorce can actually be calm, organized and achieved in a mutually agreeable manner, believe it or not. This may not apply to everyone, but Bari and my case attorney Alison (Schmieder) Dunn were willing to support me in pursuing this course. WLG are top notch, informed, well-practiced attorneys and experts in the field – you need this. Looking back over our working relationship, it is astonishing how far we came to bring me peace of mind, stability that I could share with my children and family, and ultimately a peaceful final agreement. Thank you to Bari, Alison and the WLG Team.

I met Bari through a friend several years ago so when it came time to retain a lawyer for my divorce I knew exactly where to go. Dianna Cavaliere handled my case. From beginning to end, I felt as if I was in the best hands possible. She took the time to explain everything to me, and I always heard back from her in a timely manner whenever I had questions. I always felt like I was getting the personal attention I needed during this difficult process. I would highly recommend Weinberger Law Group for your legal needs.

We were represented by Greg Pasler in a custody manner. He was efficient and hard working. He achieved our goal very quickly. He was always available on short notice if needed and responded to questions and concerns in a timely manner. We would recommend Weinberger Law Group & Greg Pasler to anyone in need of representation in a situation like ours. He is beyond professional and cares about the needs and expectations of his clients!

I retained Erin Schneiderman in my divorce proceedings back in 2010. My situation was better than most because my ex wasn't a total jerk, but his lawyer was inept. Erin was great to deal with. She was very prompt to respond to my questions, especially when it came to custody of my two children, and she even had to rewrite half the documents for my ex's lawyer. In the end, I was extremely satisfied with my entire settlement and I found her pricing to be reasonable for her time and expertise. She has always made herself available (4 years later) if I have any follow-up questions.

I had the pleasure of working with Carmela Novi to settle my divorce and she was always attentive and quick to respond. I thank her and her team for making the process as painless as possible. Thank you.

I hired the Weinberger Law Group, Raquel Vallejo, to represent me in my Divorce. I had been with another attorney from a different firm who I believe was not handling the case as I had envisioned it should be. My marriage of 17 years was over but it was important to me that the divorce address my needs, the needs of my soon to be ex and the children. Ms. Vallejo did an excellent job finding a good balance between my ex and myself, protecting my interests, but also being fair to all. Her professionalism and timeliness when dealing with my wife's attorney kept the process moving forward. I appreciate the time Ms. Vallejo took to understand what was important to me and helped bring resolution.

Bari and Alison S.(EVERYONE) are very friendly, pleasant, personable and understanding people. I cannot say enough about them. They know what they are doing and really look out for you and actually listen to you, YOU DO NOT FEEL LIKE YOU ARE JUST A CLIENT, I felt so comfortable...and believe me, there were times when I really need to talk and they were there. I am so glad that I picked the Weinberger Law Group. My divorce was pretty simple and straight forward, but the best thing was Alison had me divorced in 4 MONTHS. Anyone looking for a Divorce Atty/Family Law etc...you really need to look no further. BARI, ALISON AND EVERYONE....THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING.....Karen

I called this firm hoping to get an appointment as a free consultation as advertised on their site. Money is so tight with raising two young children. Back in 2013 I made an appointment but cancelled as my husband and I were going to try and work things out. Well, now 1 year later the marriage has not improved and I need a divorce attorney. I called to get an appointment and was told, "sorry you have to pay for a consultation because your appointment that you set up was your free consultation even though you never came." How cold and heartless is this?! This type of firm has proved to me that they are only in it for the money and could careless about helping someone. Their fees are $275 and hour for a beginner attorney and $425 for Bari. Would it really kill this firm to have said, since we never got to talk to you, come in for the free consult!!

I can't thank Erin Brueche and her team enough for bringing me through one of the most difficult things I'll ever experience. Erin was knowledgeable of the law but never once forced me to make a decision that I wasn't comfortable with. She was thoughtful and understanding throughout the entire process, which was important to me because I wanted things to be as peaceful as possible with my ex wife. I would highly recommend anyone to Erin and her team. She lead me to a great settlement, but also allowed my ex and I to remain "friendly" to this day. Thank you Erin!

I am writing at this time to commend the Weinberger Law Group on the excellent job they did in representing me in my divorce. I would especially like to thank Raquel Vallejo for her time, efforts and results. A divorce is a horrible thing to go thru and Raquel was there for me not only as a lawyer but as a true supportive resource. She made a bad experience less painful by knowing that I had a lawyer that would guide me every step of the way. From the first session she told me what my options were and what I could except from the NJ Courts. She allowed me to make my own decisions, but also told me what to realistically expect. I feel that I benefited from Raquel’s experience as seasoned veteran with a strong understanding of the NJ Courts, and the personnel we would likely encounter. She made me feel as if I was her only client. Every time that I had a question and I sent her an email she would respond within minutes. She was early or prompt to every meeting and always prepared with complete materials that pertained to my case. Every time the other lawyer did not have something or said that they did not receive it Raquel would have copies of what she sent and knew without looking when it was sent. I feel I received excellent representation to make the best of a bad situation in the interest of not only myself but also for my children. A mere thank you is not enough, so truly thank you.

Bari was wonderful!! She always explained the law thoroughly. I understood every part of the process. She was supportive, smart & professional. Everyone said "You need a shark", I said "I need a stingray". Bari has an amazing combination of elegance & intelligence & can fight the fight,

Jessica Ragno Sprague of Weiberger Law Group was absolutely outstanding. She took over our case under difficult circumstances – another attorney had failed to follow through on a number of issues and we were under pressure to resolve the case quickly.
Ms. Sprague has integrity and accomplished more in a matter of months than the previous attorney had accomplished in two years. She was professional, personable, forthright, and presented the case to an arbitrator succinctly and successfully. She and her paralegal, Kathy Simmons, were responsive and efficient.
This experience resulted in a highly satisfactory outcome. I recommend her without reservation, and thank her for her exemplary performance.

There are so many good things I could say about Weinberger Law Group. First, they give you and your case the undivided attention that it deserved and that you want. In a time when your family is falling apart, WLG provides you with the support that you need to get through each day of your divorce process. I would never want to go through the past couple months again but if I had to there is no one else I would want by my side than Bari Weinberger.

I had a tough case and needed the best. After doing some research, I found Weinberger Law Group. I met with Bari and she was great! She gave me every bit of confidence I needed and she never had a doubt I was going to be ok. Bari and her staff kept me up to date and was always there to answer my questions and give me feedback. Basically, I was taken to court, after Weinberger Law Group finished the plaintiff signed OUR consent. I would highly reccomend Bari and Weinberger Law Group to anyone!

Carmela Novi has been the best when I'm under stress. She empathsizes with the client and understands what they're going through and what they need to achieve in order to satisfy the situation at hand. A great listener.Easily reached day or night and returns calls promptly. She makes you feel like you have not just an advocate but a friend. She doesn't tell you what you necessarily want to hear, but what you need to hear.

Allison Holtzman of the Weinberger Law Group handled my case. She was friendly, professional and was always available to me. She always provided me her professional opinion, but allowed me to make decisions. She always wanted me to have all the facts to make the right decision and I appreciated that so much. She always made feel comfortable. I knew she always had my best interests in mind. I totally recommend this law firm and Allison.

Erin did a great job representing me in my divorce. She's very prompt with her responses and is very clear in her communications. She represented my interests with great zeal as well as presented realistic expectations on what I should expect and what's difficult to attain. Her primary motive is always to protect my interest, and what's the best strategy to achieve that outcome. Her professionalism extends not only to me but to the opposing lawyer at all times.

The situation surrounding my divorce was a bit different than the norm but Erin made it her prerogative to learn what's needed and what the law would allow. She has no problem letting me know if she doesn't know, but she eventually takes the time to find things out herself. I would strongly recommend her to represent you in your divorce matters.

I would also like to commend Erin's assistant, Donna who handled communications, organizing paperwork and made life and paper trails a lot easier and smoother, setting appointments, meetings, and the number of cancellations and re-scheduling she needed to do. She always remembers when a meeting/court appointment would be and remind me whenever the dates come close. I remember when we had tons of paperwork that needed to be scanned, Donna managed through them all, and had to divide them into 4 separate emails just so the size would be able to get through.

Thanks again Erin and Donna! I appreciate all that you guys have done!!
