"I went through 4 different attorney's offices before I was recommended to Jersey Shore Family Law and I'm just mad at myself for not finding them sooner. From the initial consult with Darren, to the continued contact with all office staff, right up to Alexa guiding me through every step of the custody and relocation process was just... seamless. I felt very valued, heard, and informed in detail about every step. Even when I didn't understand or had a frustration about something, Alexa was ALWAYS prompt to respond and make sure I understood everything fully. She was quick to calm my nerves. Her knowledge and dedication is simply unmatched from anyone I've ever experienced. A high recommendation is simply not enough to say thank you, ALL of you... just kind, compassionate, professional, WONDERFUL people!!!"
