Mr. Spivack is a phenomenal and incredibly intelligent family lawyer. I am honored to have been represented by him over the last several years. Mr. Spivack effectively represented me for three different family law cases. The cases were complex, long-term and involved an extensive amount of litigation. Mr. Spivack is extremely well prepared to address pre-trial, depositions and trial matters. As a result of his family law expertise, the court granted me (a father) full custody of my daughter in a divorce case. I highly recommend him to represent any citizen regarding family law matters. Mr. Spivack has the acumen and practical legal experience to navigate successfully through complex law cases. Mr. Spivack is highly respected by his peers as well as the Judges that he practices law before.

He knows the law and went the extra mile for me. He understood and was able to find a resolution to my difficult situation. Mr. Spivack was able to put me at ease in a very stressful situation. I have 100% confidence in him.He is compassionate, yet maintains his focus on the goal. He stayed in close communication and provided me with options at the various decision points in the process. I would hire him again without hesitation.

I highly recommend Mr. Spivack for any family law or divorce case. I say this because when I began the process I did not hire Mr. Spivack as my attorney. The lawyer I had was poor at communication and seemed to just be going through the motions. When I hired Mr. Spivack, we first talked over my case and seen many problems with the way my case was being handled. My case had a custody battle for my children, as well as the typical marital assets. Mr. Spivack handled everything and was great at communicating with me on the many issues we came across. He was also excellent at communicating with the opposing lawyer and the child rep. to get the case settled and avoiding a trial. I would defiantly make Andrew Spivack my first choice if ever in another family law situation, and you should too.

Andrew Spivack has been an invaluable custody attorney for me and my child. He understood the specific issues related to my case and usually knew which direction I was going with my concerns before I finished explaining them. He also represented me very effectively in court and I now have residential custody of my child.

I hired Andrew (Andy) L. Spivack as my attorney for a very complicated divorce case which lasted several years due to my original attorney passing away. Andy was able to finalize my divorce case satisfactory. Andy is currently working on my child support dispute case and I am fully confident that we will have a positive outcome. Thank you, Andy!

I was initially contacted by Andrew for a brief consultation regarding a child support/miscellaneous expenses case. He spent more than twice the allotted free consultation time to go over my options. I wasted little time in hiring him. Over the course of the next four months, he maintained close contact and constantly apprised me of progress on the case. More impressively, he saved me tens of thousands of dollars. I was alleged to have owed over $100,000 in back child support and miscellaneous (medical, dependent daycare, extracurricular, etc) expenses. After careful research, Andrew determined that I in fact had overpaid child support (which I received a credit towards expenses) and whittled away alleged expenses down to less than a third of what the lawyer for the petitioner presented in the case. These outstanding expenses only accumulated since I had been out of work for a number of months. Needless to say, Andrew was instrumental in exposing the outrageous figures brought forth by the petitioner. I highly recommend Andrew’s services. It takes money to make money or, in this case, save money. Investing in Andrew will save you money down the road.

I was referred to Mr Spivack from a friend. I met with him at his office he was very friendly and kind he explained everything to me that I didn't understand and when I needed to call him for more question he didn't hesitate to pick up the phone. He is so far the best lawyer I have ever dealt with and I had to give him a review cause I am very pleased with his services.....
