As Chief Executive and Chairman of a large public company, I was accustomed to dealing with many different attorneys throughout my life. Jeffrey Weissman and his team at Gladstone & Weissman, P.A., however, were definitely among the best. My former wife and I had been separated for 30 years before we decided to legally divorce. It was not an overly-emotional matter, and our biggest concern was avoiding all of the stress and time usually associated with divorce proceedings. Jeff Weissman and his team ensured that my divorce progressed smoothly and concluded as soon as possible--saving us time and money. The attorneys and staff were very professional and polite, and my ex-wife even commented on how gracious they were. Overall, I am very happy with the result of my case and highly recommend Mr. Weissman’s legal services.

A recommendation from a top family lawyer in New York led me to Jeffrey A. Weissman. I showed up at Jeff's law office with a picture of my four teenage children, tears in my eyes and a desperate need to find someone to help me navigate through a divorce after 24 years of marriage. I had already met with two other lawyers whose main focus was on the monetary aspects of my case and I did not feel would represent me in the best way possible. In contrast, Jeff sat with me for a couple of hours and calmly walked me through the divorce process from beginning to end, answering all of my questions and helping me to understand exactly what lie ahead. His passion, creativity and intelligence were apparent and second to none. After my "divorce tutorial," I knew I had finally found the leader of my team. After assembling a top notch group of professionals for my case, Jeff diligently worked on my behalf and always had my best interests at heart. Listening to my fears and concerns, Jeff was always sensitive to my needs, while still using his top notch skills to keep me focused and looking at the big picture. Although numerous events existed in my divorce that could have provoked anger and conflict, Jeff's gift of reason throughout the process helped to keep my emotions positively focused. By following Jeff and his team I was led through a very successful and amicable mediation which resulted in a very fair and positive settlement. Jeff and the staff of Gladstone & Weissman treated me as though I was their most important client, completed my divorce in a very timely matter and kept me informed of all correspondence pertinent to my case. Whenever I am asked who represented me in my divorce, whether it is another family lawyer, friend or other professional, I am very proud to say Jeffrey Weissman. Those who know him, even opposing attorneys, always have kind and positive things to say about him. The true test of a respected professional is the positive confirmation of his peers. I know without a doubt, that without Jeff's intelligence, compassion, innate ability to understand the psychology of people and superb skills in presenting my case to the opposing counsel, I would not have had as successful an outcome. Jeff was the silver lining in my divorce and I will forever be thankful.

I had the pleasure of working with Jeffrey Weissman regarding a postnuptial agreement. Not only was I completely impressed with his knowledge of the law which I absolutely expected, but Jeff has a unique ability to convey the law and the work required to be done in a manner for a layperson to understand. When the signing ceremony for the postnuptial agreement (which should have been a standard signing) took an unexpected turn, Jeff adeptly handled the meeting, preserved the series of events for the formal record and scheduled all parties to reconvene for a signing at a later date. Everything was strategically done in a manner which shows his experience and complete advocacy for his client in order to accomplish the desired result. I was very pleased with the outcome and how Jeff made this difficult and emotional situation something that was painless. Jeff and his staff responded to every email with promptness and precision and he took as much time as was necessary to ensure I was fully informed and understood all documentation prepared. I will absolutely refer anyone who needs a family law attorney to Jeff and will feel comfortable that they will receive top notch legal representation. The honor of 2013 Family Law Attorney of the Year could not be awarded to a more deserving attorney!

As a trusts and estates attorney AND former client, I have worked together with Jeff Weissman on numerous occasions. I am always impressed by Jeff’s compassion, intelligence, responsiveness and professionalism. Jeff’s knowledge and expertise in sophisticated family law matters is top notch. In addition, Jeff truly listens to his clients, making them feel supported and understood. He accurately assesses their needs and helps them to make decisions that are in their best interests, as well as the best interests of their children. Jeff is respected by his peers and judges, having a reputation for zealously representing his clients while maintaining an ethical practice. Each of my clients who has worked with Jeff has thanked me for the recommendation. It is my strong belief that any individual wanting excellent representation in the area of family law should contact Jeff Weissman.

Jeff Weissman is simply, hands down, the most practical, creative and passionate matrimonial attorney in South Florida. He fights for his clients like they are his family but takes a very pragmatic approach to every case. He would rather settle than litigate, and he knows how to work with his adversaries to get the job done for his clients.

My professional experiences with Jeff Weissman and the staff at Gladstone & Weissman have been nothing short of impressive. I met Mr. Weissman and his staff, in 2007 when I was advocating to protect three children as their parents were going through a very challenging divorce. It is with integrity, knowledge, and empathy that Mr. Weissman approaches discussions and collaborations on what is in the best interest of children and their families. Many people practice family law. Few attorneys practice family law with the legal skill set, sensitivity and attention that Mr. Weissman brings to each and every family he works with. Understanding the special needs of individuals and families psychologically, emotionally and monetarily, along with his extensive knowledge of family law and outstanding mediation and litigation abilities, are a combination of qualities that cause Mr. Weissman to stand out as a superior family law attorney locally and nationally. As clinician who helps individuals and families, I never want to see people getting divorced. When it does happen, I find comfort in knowing there is a team of attorneys at Gladstone & Weissman that share Mr. Weissman's integrity and compassion as well as his outstanding knowledge of family law and abilities to be strong advocates for their clients.

As a sports agent, my clients turn to me as their “go-to” guy to help them resolve problems. Often times these problems require the services of an attorney. One attorney who has delivered each and every time is Jeff Weissman. It is rare to find a family lawyer who is as effective as Jeff. He is the perfect balance of a hard-nosed litigator and a pragmatic negotiator. Family law matters are very difficult to navigate because of the added emotional stress on the client. Jeff is skilled at not only handling the matter at hand, but also at helping clients understand the legal strategy he is using and why. You cannot underestimate the importance of this skill. Where many competent lawyers fall short is keeping the client informed and engaged throughout every step of the case. Jeff not only has gotten terrific results for my clients but has done so in a way that provides closure for them. Many other family lawyers will fight opposing counsel at every step of the way to appear as a strong fighter for their client. The client ends up in a long, protracted and emotionally unhealthy battle that leads to much higher legal fees and irreparable damage to the family. Do not confuse kindness with weakness. Jeff is not worried about appearances…only results. He is respected amongst his peers, judges and mediators for his professionalism. Simply put, he is my “go-to” guy.

I first came to meet Jeff Weissman when I decided to divorced my wife back in 2006. Despite it being basically amicable, there were complexities that made for some tense times. Throughout the 18 months of negotiations, Jeff remained calm and gave excellent advice that was well researched, especially since a percentage of assets were held overseas. He was diligent and reached an excellent settlement that was fair to both parties, or deemed fair as much as it can be in a divorce. My ex wife harbored no ill feelings towards him. He successfully handled the opposing attorney in both a competent and efficient way. I was a partner at one of the major world accounting firms and have dealt with attorneys at top levels. Jeff compared most favorably with many of those I worked with.

I was in a state of shock after I found out that my marriage of 20 years was about to crumble. My good friend gave me the names of two divorce attorneys. One was a woman and the other a man. I decided to interview the woman first thinking that I would be more comfortable with a female. Then I met Jeff Weissman. He proceeded to give me a mini course on divorce 101. I chose Jeff on the spot. I could see the passion he had for his work. There was no doubt that I was in good hands. Jeff was sensitive to my every need and answered all my questions. He was thorough, meticulous, and left no stone unturned in all aspects of the law and my particular case. When issues arose that I could not handle, he became my guide and my strength. Jeff made sure to understand ME- the woman whom he knew I could become. My story has a happy ending. My husband and I sought counseling and we reconciled our differences. The bonus for me is Jeff Weissman- a wonderful person, and a dear friend for life!

I learned to lean on and trust Mr. Weissman completely and listen to his advice. He listened to and understood my frustrations. He is a man with great respect for values like family, empathy, courage, forgiveness. He's extremely intelligent and caring. He can comprehend complex matters and develop innovative strategies taking in consideration his client’s background, culture, strengths and weaknesses. By really understanding me and where I was coming from, he determined the right path for a successful result. I will be honest and admit that once or twice I did not agree with his advice, but I trusted in his experience and instincts. Let me tell you, he was absolutely right and I was glad to have listened to him!

Understanding the special needs of individuals and families psychologically, emotionally and monetarily, along with his extensive knowledge of family law and outstanding mediation and litigation abilities, are a combination of qualities that cause Mr. Weissman to stand out as a superior family law attorney locally and nationally. As clinician who helps individuals and families, I never want to see people getting divorced. When it does happen, I find comfort in knowing there is a team of attorneys at Gladstone & Weissman that share Mr. Weissman's integrity and compassion as well as his outstanding knowledge of family law and abilities to be strong advocates for their clients.

As a sports agent, my clients turn to me as their “go-to” guy to help them resolve problems. Often times these problems require the services of an attorney. One attorney who has delivered each and every time is Jeff Weissman. It is rare to find a family lawyer who is as effective as Jeff. He is the perfect balance of a hard-nosed litigator and a pragmatic negotiator. Family law matters are very difficult to navigate because of the added emotional stress on the client. Jeff is skilled at not only handling the matter at hand, but also at helping clients understand the legal strategy he is using and why. You cannot underestimate the importance of this skill. Where many competent lawyers fall short is keeping the client informed and engaged throughout every step of the case. Jeff not only has gotten terrific results for my clients but has done so in a way that provides closure for them. Many other family lawyers will fight opposing counsel at every step of the way to appear as a strong fighter for their client. The client ends up in a long, protracted and emotionally unhealthy battle that leads to much higher legal fees and irreparable damage to the family. Do not confuse kindness with weakness. Jeff is not worried about appearances…only results. He is respected amongst his peers, judges and mediators for his professionalism. Simply put, he is my “go-to” guy.

I first came to meet Jeff Weissman when I decided to divorced my wife back in 2006. Despite it being basically amicable, there were complexities that made for some tense times. Throughout the 18 months of negotiations, Jeff remained calm and gave excellent advice that was well researched, especially since a percentage of assets were held overseas. He was diligent and reached an excellent settlement that was fair to both parties, or deemed fair as much as it can be in a divorce. My ex wife harbored no ill feelings towards him. He successfully handled the opposing attorney in both a competent and efficient way. I was a partner at one of the major world accounting firms and have dealt with attorneys at top levels. Jeff compared most favorably with many of those I worked with.

I was in a state of shock after I found out that my marriage of 20 years was about to crumble. My good friend gave me the names of two divorce attorneys. One was a woman and the other a man. I decided to interview the woman first thinking that I would be more comfortable with a female. Then I met Jeff Weissman. He proceeded to give me a mini course on divorce 101. I chose Jeff on the spot. I could see the passion he had for his work. There was no doubt that I was in good hands. Jeff was sensitive to my every need and answered all my questions. He was thorough, meticulous, and left no stone unturned in all aspects of the law and my particular case. When issues arose that I could not handle, he became my guide and my strength. Jeff made sure to understand ME- the woman whom he knew I could become. My story has a happy ending. My husband and I sought counseling and we reconciled our differences. The bonus for me is Jeff Weissman- a wonderful person, and a dear friend for life!

I learned to lean on and trust Mr. Weissman completely and listen to his advice. He listened to and understood my frustrations. He is a man with great respect for values like family, empathy, courage, forgiveness. He's extremely intelligent and caring. He can comprehend complex matters and develop innovative strategies taking in consideration his client’s background, culture, strengths and weaknesses. By really understanding me and where I was coming from, he determined the right path for a successful result. I will be honest and admit that once or twice I did not agree with his advice, but I trusted in his experience and instincts. Let me tell you, he was absolutely right and I was glad to have listened to him!
