They Are Top Notch
I arranged for Rachel Goldsher with this firm to handle my brother’s divorce. She and the firm’s staff were very responsive to his needs, and recommended a course of action that was reasonable and cost effective. Their billing was very reasonable, with paralegals and other staff handling much of the routine work and billing accordingly. As a result the overall cost of the divorce was reasonable. Rachel also effectively addressed my brother’s particular needs in the settlement agreement. I highly recommend.

I Highly Recommend Them
In a time of turmoil, the Irving Law Firm was there to answer my questions regarding a divorce. They do not try to gouge you and explain ways to make your divorce less stressful and pocket friendly. I highly recommend them.
I’d Definitely Hire Again If NeededRebecca and staff were wonderful handling my case. They seemed mindful of the billed time and I didn’t feel any was excessive. Her attention to detail brought me additional arrearages which a former attorney didn’t notice or enforce on prior filings. I’d definitely hire again if needed.
