I worked with Ms. Friedman for almost a year on a complicated child support case. I have been dealing with family matters since 2018 and have had the representation of three different attorneys over the years. She is by far the most professional and knowledgeable attorney I have hired (and let me say, I can be quite complicated and picky to the smallest detail). I consulted with 2 different attorneys and none of them felt comfortable with taking on my case, Ms. Friedman did with no hesitation and I am glad they led me to her. To be more specific the referral said she was: "A shark in family court" and did not lie. She definitely executed a good plan and delivered results as discussed upon hiring her representation. She stands very confident during hearings, straight to the point, tough on the opposition, always well prepared and extremely knowledgable in family matters. Ms. Friedman considers her client's needs and wants, it is not about her and what she can and cannot do. She listens, explains, answers questions, clears any confusion and then offers her professional advice. She is very honest and does not offer results she cannot deliver, a quality many attorneys lack. I have never been this pleased before and with no hesitation, if I needed to I will absolutely hire her again. Very thankful with her legal team and the professionalism kept all along the way.

We worked with Andrea Friedman on a divorce case. From the very first conversation we had she outlined the legal strategy for us in how to resolve this matter. The case was carried out with the exact precision as she explained it in our initial conversation. Andrea’s empathy and understanding of the sense of urgency of resolving our case in an efficient manner as she pointed out to us that this was a time sensitive case. We were amazed at the speed that she was able to obtain an emergency court hearing during the pandemic. Ms. Friedman is highly responsive and her updates on the case were shared in real time with us. The key reason in getting this case being resolved quickly is due Ms. Friedman’s dynamic performance. We are grateful and fortunate to have found Ms. Friedman as our attorney. We highly recommend Ms. Andrea Friedman as her professionalism is unparalleled.

Andrea B. Friedman And her team have been nothing but an absolute pleasure to work with. They handled my case with such compassion and care that I am to this day extremely greatful. Andrea B. Friedman and her team have been professional since day one and very prompt. They made a very stressful time in my life become bearable and less daunting. For example, I would send an email asking a question or stating a concern of mine and their response time was incredible. I am extremely grateful to Andrea B. Friedman and her team and I honestly believe that I would not have received the same results, if I went to any other attorney. Highly recommend her to anyone!

I am a single (unmarried) father, who was fighting an extremely difficult child custody case, to have the custody rights a father, and his daughter deserve. Hiring Andrea Friedman was the best decision I made for my case, and she ultimately helped me achieve the exact outcome that I was looking for. As this was a difficult and emotional case for me, she was extremely helpful, not only in the litigation process but also greatly helped me figure out how to get through the emotional rollercoaster. Which I did not expect from a lawyer. She is a no-nonsense, direct and skilled lawyer to have on your side and a genuine and empathetic person to help you through any tough times in this process. I without a doubt recommend her. She is the one you want fighting for you.

Andrea Friedman is an outstanding divorce and family law attorney who combines expertise and knowledge of the law to quickly identify issues, take decisive action and deliver optimal results. As a stay-at-home-dad with four kids difficult challenges lay ahead but Andrea never hesitated from the challenge and developed a clear strategy and pathway to meet my family’s needs. She gave hope when there wasn't any and proceeded to completely turn the table upside down in my favor. Andrea was results-oriented and direct in her approach but operated with skill, integrity, grace and poise that commanded respect in the courtroom, meetings and even from her adversary. She was incredibly efficient with her time and kept me focused throughout even when emotions ran high. She was empathetic, genuine and is truly a good person. I can say with complete confidence Andrea is the person you want on your side whatever your situation may be. Thanks to Friedman & Friedman I now truly believe that fathers do have rights!

Let me start off by saying, I am not a regular review writer, but this experience has prompted me to express my gratitude and appreciation to both Andrea and Sari Friedman. The "dynamic duo" handled my recent custody case. Without getting into too much detail, my 16 year old daughter needed a change and wanted to live with me (her dad). Her mother was unwilling to oblige, therefore, we needed help. Enter Andrea and Sari. From the initial consultation, we felt confident in a positive outcome. Andrea explained options, helped form a plan, and executed that plan with extreme professionalism and care. She listened, not only to me, but to my daughter, and made her feel both comfortable and relevant to our matter. From negotiations with opposing council, to actual court appearances, we always felt as if we were in good hands. We cannot say enough good things about Andrea and Sari, and highly recommend their services to anyone facing any type of family matter.

I had worked with Andrea throughout my divorce process, and she is now assisting me in the next chapter of moving forward. She has, historically speaking, always answered me honestly and fully. Even if the answer was not in my favor. This is an admirable trait when you are dealing with a rough separation and petitioning process. You want your attorney to always be honest with you, about your expectations and the probable outcome of your case. You will feel comfortable and at ease when speaking with her, and her demeanor has a very positive effect when dealing with "pre-hearing jitters". I strongly recommend Andrea, and can personally attest to the level of care and support she offers.

They made me feel like family and made me feel they really cared about my case. Divorces aren't easy and having good representation is important. If you need advice, see Friedman & Friedman, Attorneys at Law.

Andrea has represented my interests and the best interests of my family on more than one occasion. Each time she has been very responsive to my concerns and thoughts. My case was/is a multi state custody dispute with many nuances. Andrea handled all of those nuances well and thoughtfully.
