The caring, thoughtful advice Mr. Eiges provided during my $100 consultation helped put things on their proper perspective and saved me from making a colossal mistake that would have cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Ken Eiges made the process quick and painless. The office was easy to deal with and i appreciate that they communicated with me promptly and efficiently. Ken took the time to listen to and understand the details of my situation, made me feel heard, and never made me feel rushed or forgotten. He is personable and easy to talk to and remembers you. I would recommend him to everyone and couldn’t have asked for an easier experience. Thank you Ken and staff!
Kenneth is an amazing specialist and very warm and positive person. His advice changed my way of looking at the situation, helped to make a wiser choice and I didn’t pay a dime for it.. If you are feeling stuck and have no idea what to do next. You should visit Kenneth. You will get inspired and will obtain enough information to make your next step in the right direction. Thank you very much Kenneth.
I was going through a very tough custody battle and making little progress. After taking several beatings in the courtroom I decided to reach out to Ken Eiges. After my first conversation with Ken I knew everything would turn out well. My tendency is to strike back hard when being attacked, Ken advocated a less confrontational approach with the aim of reaching an agreement. Working with Ken and his associate, Liz Garvey, and through extensive, tough negotiations led to a mutual agreement where I am very involved in my child's life. Liz was a pleasure to work with and through her diligence, toughness, and hard work we achieved our goals. Liz's compassion and sense of humor made the whole episode much easier even when I was grumbling and cranky. Thanks to Ken, Liz, and the whole team for resolving this troubling episode with the best possible result.
I called many lawyers before contacting Ken, and they just didn't seem trustworthy or gave me any confidence but Ken right away put me at easy and it was so easy to speak to him (he has a great sense of humor too!). Thank you Ken and Scott and the paralegals at the firm for helping me go through my divorce effortlessly. You guys are the best!
I met with two lawyers before Mr.Eiges. They both said I had a difficult case, but not him. I went to Mr. Eiges and he took the time to explain my options (this was the consultation and he was already planning a strategy for my case! ) Before every court date I would receive a call, he would go over what I should expect and strategize. I walked in court knowing that he knew what mattered to me most and would speak on my behalf. His paralegals informed me of documents sent and received by the court, when summons was served and emailed/mailed documents to me for my records.I never felt detached from what was going on. As a busy single mom that helped a lot so I could focus on what matters-quality unbroken time. In the end, I got what I fought for- Divorce/Custody and Child Support. I am so grateful
I would recommend anyone to Kenneth he was very helpful and was able to help me with my custody issue I was having
I was involved in an extremely contentious divorce. Before I even appeared in court for the first time my legal fees were over $25,000. My lawyer sent out 98 emails during the first 6 weeks of my case. She double-billed me every time she had a conversation with her own associate. She was recommended by a friend who told me that he paid her $250,000 in legal fees. My ex-husband is a physician an I'm a Financial Analyst. Although I earned more money than him, My husband had a lot of family money behind him. I knew I couldn’t keep fighting with the type of legal fees that I was being charged. I really didn’t want to choose a lawyer from the internet but I decided to call several lawyers. I really connected on the phone with Scott Orgel at Eiges & Orgel. I went for a consultation I spoke with Scott and his partner Ken. They were knowledgeable and professional. I decided to hire them and was very happy I did. I was fighting my husband over custody, support, alimony and more. We finally settled before trial. I was very happy with my settlement and shockingly my legal bill was only $60,000. My husband paid over $200,000 in legal fees and I felt that my lawyers did a much better job than his.
Ken and his team provided very competent service for an extremely sensitive situation and achieved the desired result for me as the client.
This solely my opinion. My Eiges is wonderful person and lawyer. He did everything in his power to complete my case with the sole purpose of saving me as much money as possible and making sure I would be happy with the outcome. There was a day I was really upset and Mr Eiges bought my mother and I coffee and didn't charge me for it on my bill, nor did he charge me for the extra time spent drinking the coffee and discussing my case. He is a lawyer that cares about his clients and knows the limits of what the law allows. I'm glad I had him on my side (even though I was always angry, and upset, and yelling all the time). And, although he does need a reminder from time to time, I would obtain his services again. FOR THE MEN - Be prepared, the Family court and Supreme court system are usually on the mother's side. If you can not prove she's crazy, a danger to the kids and her self or depressed, you've lost. Doesn't matter who your lawyer is. Mr Eiges will help you finish the case as fast as possible and will try his best to stay with in budget. My case was almost 2 years. I know it's hard (Trust me I know), but, kids grow up (It took me 2 years to realize that). Be the best dad you can be. Don't be a dead beat. As they grow, enforce it in their minds that you will always be there for them and that you are only a phone call away. Paying child support and living expenses will become difficult, but, you can get a divorce without having to pay you ex every 3 years (Mr. Eiges did everything in his power for this to happen). I gave up a few freedoms, but, it will be well worth it in the long run and my boys know who I am and how much I love me. TIP: Best advice I can give. Try to avoid taking it to trial. Huge savings if you can. Roughly $15K-$30K. Stay in family court. Finish it fast and move on.
