To Gigi:
I was worried from the beginning this would drag out forever and turn out to be an economic catastrophe. This was what my ex-wife said when I mentioned DIVORCE. However, your intervention and communication with my ex-wife certainly calmed things down. I guess when reality hits, divorce was the only solution and you somehow convinced my wife it was the right thing to do. You and your firm managed my divorce case diligently and professionally. Settlement was clearly the best path to success. The legal bills were more than expected, but manageable. Turns out one can file for

I called the Yaffa firm after a friend recommended Richie. He made himself available and answered all of my questions. I believed him. He gave me the attention that the two other firms I called didnt. He was able to resolve my issue without making a huge deal and did so quickly. Richie took my calls and answered my texts. My child support problem did not require a hearing and he handled it quickly. I trust him and I would use him again.

I've been handling marketing for Yaffa Family Law Group for over 7 months, and the professionalism I have seen at the firm is amazing. Each potential client receives a confidential strategy session with a lawyer to see how the firm can help. Doreen and her associates handle each family law case with extreme care and concern. I see firsthand, the empathy and compassion that goes into each client case, whether it is a divorce or a prenuptial agreement, a modification or a highly contested custody case. I'm proud to work for this firm and especially for Doreen.

If you are going through with a divorce and need someone in your corner that actually cares, this is the firm you want! Not only are they extremely competent and capable, they are also compassionate and understanding to what you are going through. My attorney (Richard Boyle) was willing to sit and listen to me no matter how long it took for him to get the full story and was very accessible. He was able to get the matter resolved quickly and painlessly. This type of legal representation is hard to find these days and I highly recommend this firm if you are in need of such representation.
