When you meet Susan Kassel, you will immediately sense her professionalism and knowledge of the law. I retained her for two matrimonial cases over the years and both cases were settled quickly and fairly. Most importantly, I believe that she understands the emotional strain of divorce better than anyone. She always returned phone calls promptly and the legal fees were fair and affordable. I give her my recommendation !

Susan represented me in my divorce. I was worried, nervous, anxious, and downright scared. Divorce is one of the worst things that can happen in your lifetime. When it came to the first four way, I felt like no showing. Five minutes with Susan, her presence was calming, I knew she would fight for me and not needlessly make me spend money, she would also gave me the right advice and not just what I wanted to hear. All of a sudden things changed. She was prepared and has a great way of dealing with the otherside. I can’t thank her enough.

I hired Susan to do a divorce for me two years ago. She was able to keep my wife calm and negotiated a good settlement for me. I told her how my wife thought and during negotiations she was actually able to get her to relent and convinced her that it was her idea! My contested divorce was resolved within 6 months. (I have friends who started their divorces before me who are still not divorced! ) I rehired her to help me effectuate the divorce by filing court orders to put my half of her pensions into my name. I am very happy with her entire office!

Susan is my 3rd Attorney and what they say is true, 3rd time is a charm. She is honest and advises based on reality and not just to add hours to my bill. Her process is based on a well thought out plan knowing how the system works. She is very compassionate about her job.

Susan has been the family attorney for 20 years. She did two divorces for me, a prenuptial, 2 real estate closings and most recently a trust for my family. I like working with her because she knows a lot about all types of law. She mainly does divorces and family law but also does other things because divorce and family spills into so many other areas. She is very responsive and her staff is super helpful and knowledgeable as well. Her fees are fair as well. She has always treated me fairly. My children now use her too.

I found Susan after interviewing quite a few attorneys. Her well-rounded personality is what made me hire her. On one hand she was empathetic to what I was going through and on the other, she was all about getting down to business. The overall divorce process for my situation took several years. During that time, Susan did not lose sight of what was fair to me, even when circumstances beyond our control got in the way. Susan is a strong, tenacious attorney who will fight for you every step of the way!!!

From the first time I met Susan I could see this is more then just a job to her. I genuine concern she has shown me during my divorce is unbelievable. Ladies (or gentlemen) if you need to divorce your spouse I truly feel Susan will do her best to help you.

It's never a pleasant thing to need the services of a divorce attorney. However, if that occasion should arise there is no one else better than Susan. I had a need for her services and I was not disappointed. Susan is a very knowledgeable professional and always respond to my emails and phone calls promptly. She was very good at helping me to understand the situation and guided me patiently through the lengthy course of my divorce. I have the utmost respect for Susan. Professionally she is extremely experienced, bright, and a winner. Personally she has first class ethical and moral standards, and is completely straight-forward with you whether you are going to like what you will be hearing or not. With regards to the office, they were incredibly friendly and professional, further contributing to an overall excellent experience given the circumstances. All the above is true, and I'll share some specific details from my case: First off, it was a very complicated case involving custody primarily, and also support. This should have been a very stressful period, and it was, but it was mitigated significantly by Susan's expertise. Her ability to resolve my current issue and also plan ahead relieved me quite a bit and removed a significant portion of the burden. There were numerous occasions where Susan would meet with me on the weekend, sometimes very early in the morning, or take a late night call when something had come up. When we did not connect, she was always very prompt with her response time. She is easy to work with and pleasant to talk to. Susan is someone that I would recommend to anyone in my life whether they, or someone they might know, is in need of the services of a family/matrimonial law attorney. I found it very difficult to choose a lawyer, as there is no 'Consumer Reports' for attorneys, and it's not easily reviewable online. That said, if you are looking for the best attorney in Suffolk County, look no further!

I had been in an ongoing custody/visitation nightmare for almost 3 years when I was referred to Susan by a co-worker. I'd already fired 2 lawyers and was at the end of my rope. My ex was putting my child thru hell and using the court system to do so. I was helpless. I was devastated b/c my child was the victim. When I met Susan I was wary as I had been screwed over twice before. I listened and by the end of our consult I knew I was in the right place! She made me feel at ease and that everything would be all right. Susan promised me that she would be the only person handling my case and she would answer every phone call and have my back no matter what. My previous attorneys were part of a firm and I'd often get a lawyer who had no idea who I even was! Susan kept her promise! I had her cell # and she even called me back when I had and issue with my ex during a holiday! She was a pit bull and NEVER backed down. She fought for me and my son as if we were family. Her fees were the same as every other good lawyer and my sons welfare was worth every cent! She was SMART and got the job done! I would recommend her to anyone just like she was recommended to me! I promise, you will not be disappointed.
