Reviews

I am absolutely 100% pleased with how the ONDA team handled my case. My attorney, Caroline Near, provided an extremely robust legal defense, fighting hard on my behalf while being empathetic to my situation. It's true what they say: going through a divorce is one of the most traumatic events you can experience. That's why you need an attorney like Caroline in your corner. She will guide you through the complexities of the legal process with compassion and expertise.
I retained John Kappel in 2016 when I saw my marriage heading in a negative direction. I knew I needed to be prepared to protect my financial interests should my husband at the time follow through with threats to my financial viability. John was patient, understanding and straight forward in directing me how to best prepare myself should I end up in divorce proceedings. John continued his council as needed through the next few years providing guidance as I requested. Our divorce was filed by my spouse in 2019, and finalized in July of 2020. The divorce was intricate between various business partnerships and other tangled and co-mingled investments, etc. John was there by my side to guide me and represent my financial and family interests (regarding my children) as well as my future financial/custody well being. While I was a mental mess grasping the circumstances of the death of a 26 year relationship, John stood steadfast in addressing my best interests with the understanding that I wanted as fair a resolution as possible without being taken advantage of by my ex. I would not have been able to manage in my divorce had it not been for John’s guidance, experience, and resources. He metaphorically held my hand through the entire life-changing process. A sincere thank you to John, and ONDA.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Brad LaMorgese and his team at ONDA. Have known Brad for many, many years as a colleague and always considered him one of the most outstanding, knowledgeable, and ethical attorneys I have the privilege of knowing and/or working with. This time around, I had the opportunity to have Brad as my attorney and needless to say, all the reasons I admired him as a colleague, came to light even more. He is beyond knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly takes pride in his work. I highly recommend Brad for any of your family law needs and cannot thank him enough for his assistance.
In the INFANCY of a Divorce and feeling the ineviatable you know the only way to handle it wisely, professionally and ethically is to retain a Law Firm whose beliefs mirror yours. ONDA, is one of those firms, I first met with Paula and Richard, I explained what was happening very quickly in my marriage and what I was looking to achieve knowing it was becoming irreparable after 32 years and razing two amazing daughters. Your soon to be ex spouse will say anything, berate you, turn family against you and not believe anything that you say its very disturbing. Having Paula work with me on this for 23 long , very long months as it was negotiated and settled equitably. Having been guided, encouraged and hearing stories of other situations like mine was very refreshing and helpful. If you need an awesome attorney that will get it settled fairly and minimize family damage control, call ONDA and ask for Paula Bennett.
Was given John Kappel's name to handle a probate issue. He did a teleconference with us and we sent him paperwork to look over. Been trying to contact him via email the last couple of weeks but we haven't heard back. Tried calling him. His staff said he was out for the day. They said they would put me through to his voicemail, but ended up getting disconnected. I give up. It could be a fluke in responding, but at this point, my family and I have to start all over again with a new lawyer. I've lost faith with this firm.
