Lois acted as the mediator in my divorce, and she was absolutely excellent. It was a very difficult time for me personally, but Lois made the process as easy and painless as it could possibly have been. She listened to each of us separately, and made thoughtful and helpful suggestions. She is fair, and seemed to genuinely care about finding a solution that was best for both parties. Lois is perfectly qualified to handle this type of situation, given her background in psychology. She truly understands people, and used this ability to keep my ex-husband and I calm, and smoothly navigate a few tricky situations. I felt very understood by Lois, and think that she not just a top-quality attorney, but also a very decent person. She is responsive, and answered my emails within a couple of minutes every time. Highly rated!

It was so unexpected to receive a free consultation from a lawyer. Lois answered so many questions and extended guidance in a 15min call. She wasn't trying to sell her service rather offer guidance and next steps. Should I be unable to resolve my divorce amicably with my spouse, I would be at ease hiring her.

Lois took care of my divorce issue in a very professional way. She was patient with me,and only looked out for my benefits and the benefits of my kid. I needed a paper that I need to send back home 3 years after the divorce and she took care of it at no charge. Don't miss miss Brenner, one of the best lawyer/ Mediator in NYC

I used Lois for a prenup agreement. She listened to what I needed and delivered quickly and efficiently. It was easy to get a hold of her whenever I needed her.

Connecting with Lois was the best thing that could have happened during what has been very difficult and fraught divorce. Lois took on my case with knowledge, wisdom and care that have been above and beyond in every way. She recognized abusive and unstable behavior in my ex-husband, and offered both strong legal guidance, as well as personal encouragement and strength to stand up to him. Her support has been invaluable to me, and I am so deeply grateful for everything she has done in helping forge a better more stable future for me and for my son.

My divorce was very stressful time. Since we were able to agree with my ex-husband on many important issues I originally thought that I will be able to fill in all the necessary documents by myself. It turned out that it is nearly impossible task. The amount of paperwork was overwhelming! I was not happy with some lawyers I've approached - too expensive, too impersonal, too aggressive. When I met Lois everything changed. For very reasonable price she was able to help us - talked to both of us, gave us great suggestions. Everything went extremely well. It was quick and painless. We could not thank her enough!

Lois Brenner, her colleagues, team of experts and staff are phenominal. I hired them to help me to see my son who had been taken out of state by my wife during this insane pandemic. She decided to take him to stay with family but then she sideswiped me with a divorce. I was devastated. Lois Brenner and her litigation partner fought for me and made it possible for me to see my son. They are handling my divorce now and their strength and support is getting me through a really tough time. They are smart, tough and highly experienced.

Lois Brenner has been a gift to my family. She encouraged us to try mediation even though we were very angry. She helped us save thousands of dollars in attorney fees and helped us arrive at a fair settlement. She was patient and helped us talk to each other about all the issues. Lois Brenner gave us creative solutions so we could keep our home. She even helped my husband with his depression by introducing him to a psychologist. I could go on and on... If you need a kind, strong, smart divorce attorney- hire her. It's the best thing we did! Thank you Lois

I was dealing with an amicable relocating agreement, which turned sour. The father who allowed me at first to relocate abroad with our daughter decided at the end to make it difficult. Miss Brenner intervene to protect and defend my rights when it was needed. She understood my challenges and uplifted and guided me through the process of having this agreement signed without losing my sanity. She is fair. I am now able to travel with our daughter feeling protected with this document signed and I am able to start a better life where my family is. I would never thank her enough for guiding me through this dark tunnel I was in. I will never recommend her enough. She went beyond and called me to guide me on what the next steps could be, specific to my life situation, after she has helped me settle this agreement. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
