I am extremely grateful for the exceptional legal assistance I received from Mike Galantino at LaMonaca Law during my divorce process. His expertise and unwavering guidance proved instrumental in ensuring the smooth progression of what could have been a complex and overwhelming ordeal. From day one, Mike's adept handling of the situation put me at ease. His knowledge of the legal intricacies, combined with his supportive approach, truly set him apart. Thanks to his strategic guidance, my divorce was finalized in a remarkably efficient nine months, a testament to his commitment to navigating the process with proficiency and care. Mike's willingness to address all of my questions, no matter how big or small, was remarkable. I felt empowered by his thorough explanations, which aided me in making informed decisions every step of the way. It was evident that he wasn't just focused on the legalities, but also on streamlining the entire process in a cost-effective manner, which was incredibly appreciated. Looking forward, I have every intention of continuing to rely on Mike and the LaMonaca Law team for my future custody-related matters. The trust I have developed in his abilities is unwavering, and I am confident that he will continue to provide the same level of dedicated and skilled assistance that I have come to depend on. In a challenging time, Mike's professionalism, empathy, and legal prowess were a true blessing. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of expert legal representation. Thank you, Mike, for your outstanding support and guidance.
Pricing is outrageous, but apparently that is the norm. My lawyer did seem to do a good job with stating facts in the court room, but I still lost. Nothing that was presented, facts, proof, all of what we presented over 6 hours ALL proving in my favor. It didn’t matter. I somehow still lost. My son is losing even more. I think my lawyer did a nice job in court, but it didn’t matter. The person without a lawyer, without proof of anything except he could not handle more time, still won. As soon as we got the new order, he was in contempt. But nothing can be done about it. Apparently I need to fight more with no guarantees. It doesn’t matter if you have a good lawyer, the judge makes all the calls.
I cannot express our gratitude for this law firm! Our lawyer Michael Galantino made us feel welcome right from start and was very punctual and professional in court. Amazing job and finding justice for us and our family. Thank you so much !
I was involved in a custody battle and had to get a new lawyer (for a few reasons). I chose Teresa Mallon. Teresa is an exceptional lawyer who fought for me and helped me through my lengthy custody battle. She had to take a leave of absence but did not leave me in bad hands. She gave me some suggestions on who would be excellent to represent me. I chose to stay with LaMonaca Law and have Mike G represent me. Again, I felt in great hands as he was prepared, knowledgeable, professional, etc. Although being a single father, they worked with me and held my hand throughout the entire agonizing process. Now I have my daughter an equal amount of time and feel so much better. Thank you LaMonaca Law.
Within two months of taking on my case, $3,000 out of the initial $5,000 retainer has been depleted. Instead of discussing all the available options upfront, they prefer to present one possibility at a time, fully aware of its low probability of success. This strategy is designed to deplete your funds by prolonging the process and proposing unnecessary solutions, rather than laying out all the alternatives for a comprehensive discussion. Be wary, as they have a penchant for inundating you with countless emails, even for simple confirmations, all while charging exorbitant fees of $70 or more for a mere sentence.
