Experienced and Respected New Jersey Family Law Practice
For over 50 years, the Family Law Practice at Einhorn Barbarito has been committed to delivering highly skilled, responsive and compassionate legal representation to clients throughout the State of New Jersey. Our family attorneys are well-recognized as leaders in their fields who are prepared to advocate for clients in all types of family law matters. From complex divorces which require trials to less contentious cases brought before a mediator, we have the sophisticated knowledge and skills needed to get the best results possible for our clients.
At Einhorn Barbarito, we believe in taking the time to listen to our clients. In every matter that we handle, we carefully reflect on our clients’ circumstances so that we can formulate a case strategy that best serves their particular needs and objectives. We understand that every situation is unique and requires a personalized well-planned approach. While our goal is to resolve the case efficiently and effectively without resorting to court, we are strong litigators who will fervently champion a family law case through trial. Unfortunately, in some cases, a trial court decision is not the end of the litigation – it is just the beginning. Although the appeals process can be a difficult and complicated journey, our attorneys have litigated hundreds of cases on appeal and, in the process, shaped several areas of family law, including adoptions, alimony, cohabitation, custody, and equitable distribution.
