If you're facing a difficult family law matter, I highly recommend Jesse Nason, Esq of Kirshenbaum & Kirshenbaum. I originally sought a second opinion about my divorce options and was relieved to find that the firm offered an online consultation request form, since I'm not a phone person. Attorney Nason contacted me the very next day and quickly scheduled an in-person consultation.
From our first meeting, he took the time to listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and understand the details of my situation. I left feeling informed, prepared, and confident that I had found the right attorney. He explained the process clearly, answered my questions honestly, and gave me realistic expectations about what lay ahead.
Throughout my divorce, Attorney Nason was consistently professional, responsive, prepared, and accessible. Divorce is an emotionally and legally challenging process, and while he never sugarcoated difficult realities, I appreciated his straightforward advice and practical guidance every step of the way.
What truly set him apart was his compassion. During my case, my father entered hospice and passed away soon after. When Attorney Nason learned of my loss, he personally reached out with his condolences and proactively arranged to postpone a court date that had been scheduled just days afterward. He also gave me the time and space I needed to grieve, waiting for me to reach out when I was ready to move forward. That level of thoughtfulness meant more than I can adequately express.
At every stage, I felt that Attorney Nason prioritized my best interests. I never felt pressured into unnecessary services or legal work. His recommendations were always grounded in what was realistic, practical, and best for my specific circumstances.
Hopefully, I'll never need another divorce attorney, but if I do, Attorney Nason would be my first call. And if I ever make the mistake of getting married again, he'll be my first call for a prenup, too. After working with him, I can confidently say he's someone you want in your corner when the stakes are high.

I cannot say enough good things about Attorney Christopher Russo and the way he handled my personal injury case. After falling down a flight of stairs and suffering a serious ankle injury that required multiple surgeries and left me with permanent damage, I knew I needed someone who would truly fight for me.
Chris went above and beyond from beginning to end. The insurance company tried to place a significant portion of the liability on me, even though I was not responsible to that extent, and Chris refused to accept that. He fought for what was fair and never pressured me to settle for less than what I deserved.
What stood out most was his attention to detail, his knowledge, and the way he took the time to explain every step of the process so I could actually understand what was happening. He was always available when I had questions and was incredibly kind, compassionate, and understanding throughout what was a very difficult experience.
I am extremely grateful to Chris for everything he did for me and for never giving up on my case. I would highly recommend Attorney Christopher Russo to anyone looking for an attorney who genuinely cares about his clients and will fight for them every step of the way.

Chris Russo helped me get compensation for my medical bills and other future issues, less than two years after a nasty bone break from an ice fall outside a private residence. He was quick to follow up and had a team on my case always pushing forward and keeping me in the loop. He always made sure the story was my own and in my own words and held space for me to process and understand what was all happening. I trusted him completely with this process. You will be in good hands. He is a good human and has a big heart! Thank you to you and your wonderful office staff.
