Mr. Kershman represented me in my original divorce and a subsequent custody modification. I strongly recommend this firm. Mr. Kershman is very knowledgeable and responsive. My interests and the interests of my children were well represented. More than just going through the motions, Mr. Kershman worked strategically with deliberate thought given to even the smallest of details. My case was complex, but my attorney was confident and capable throughout.
I would recommend John to anyone going through a divorce. John provided me expert advice, clarity, and and sound decision making at a critical point in my life. My case was complex in the fact that my ex owned his own business, and John provided the insight to investigate all possibilities to ensure the maximum settlement that I deserved. John is incredibly trustworthy and truly represented my best interests - not just what he could bill for. Although the divorce was extremely painful, John's guidance, intelligence, and expertise delivered an ideal outcome in a terrible situation.
