Hired Attorney Bari Zell Weinberger

From the depths of my heart, I am profoundly grateful to Bari Weinberger and her team at Weinberger Divorce & Family Law Group. What we faced together was not a simple case—it was a long, emotionally exhausting, and deeply personal journey involving a child I love more than life itself. From the very beginning, Bari and her team treated both the legal complexities and the human reality with seriousness, compassion, and integrity. Throughout a process that often felt impossible to navigate, I never felt alone. Bari was not only sharp, strategic, and relentless in protecting my child’s best interests—she was deeply humane. She understood the stakes, connected personally, listened carefully, and brought clarity when everything felt overwhelming. Time and again, she lifted an immense weight from my shoulders by handling the matter with care, steadiness, and unwavering professionalism, even when the road was phenomenally torturous. I will always be so grateful to the Weinberger team!

Hired Attorney Carmela L. Novi

Divorce—especially from a toxic person—is one of the hardest processes to go through, and I’m grateful I had an attorney who was sharp, persistent, and deeply experienced in my corner. Carmela is not a hand-holder—and that was ultimately a strength for me. She focused on strategy, outcomes, and protecting my interests, even when the process was emotionally exhausting. At times, the office dropped the ball on some administrative details, but she took responsibility when that happened. What consistently stood out was her commitment to regular, structured communication. She set up a standing weekly call and made a genuine effort to work through my entire list each time, which helped me stay grounded and prepared in an otherwise overwhelming situation. Most importantly, she fought for me. I never doubted that she took my case seriously or that she was advocating forcefully on my behalf. Beyond her legal skill and honed instincts, I believe she genuinely cared about me as a client and a

Hired Attorney Teresa L. Reichek

When I found Teresa, I was lost and wasn't sure how to navigate the next steps. Teresa immediately reassured me with her confidence, advice and wealth of knowledge in all family law related issues but most specifically with domestic abuse cases. Teresa was constantly in contact with me throughout my case, even on weekends or after hours. She provided sound legal advice throughout and was also compassionate and sympathetic for the situation I was going through. She fought hard for me in court and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal counsel for any family law related issues.

Teresa navigated me through a messy, anxiety ridden process with compassion and grace. She is extraordinarily knowledgeable in family law and understands the nuances of difficult family relations. Her understanding of the law, as well as the rules of the court, garnered me the desired outcome. I have recommended her to people close to me and will recommend her to anyone in need of a smart, conscientious and well versed attorney.

Carmela Novi is an extremely experienced and compassionate family law attorney. Her combination of legal expertise, professionalism, and genuine understanding made a difficult and emotional time easier. She was my biggest advocate from start to finish. Carmela was always accessible to answer questions no matter how big or small. She took the time to explain every option, ensuring I understood the process and concluded my case with the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Carmela to anyone in search of a family law attorney who combines legal excellence with heartfelt care. She is truly the hardest working family law attorney I have ever met.

Hired Attorney Bari Zell Weinberger

Going through a divorce is one of the most difficult and emotional experiences of my life, but having Bari by my side made all the difference. As a father of two, I was worried about how this process would impact my kids and my future. From the very beginning, she took the time to really listen, explain every step of the process, and help me develop a clear strategy that prioritized what was best for me and my children. What impressed me most was her ability to remain calm, professional, and empathetic, even when things got tense. At the same time, she was tough and assertive when it mattered — especially in dealing with opposing counsel. She struck the perfect balance between compassion and strength, and I always felt confident knowing she was in my corner. I can’t thank her enough for guiding me through such a challenging time and helping me come out the other side with peace of mind and a fair outcome. I’d highly recommend her to anyone who needs a strong,

Teresa was very responsive and explained my options and possible outcomes clearly. She was great at protecting my interests while keeping things as smooth and respectful as possible. I would highly recommend Teresa to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and trustworthy divorce attorney.

Hired Attorney Christopher Garibian

This is my second time working with Weinberger Divorce and Family Law Group, the first was a parental rights case and second a divorce, and again they have proven that I made the right choice. Each time we went court we where well prepared and received favorable judgments. The first time the judge even complimented my counselor with the thoroughness of their preparations and information provided. The second time was the same thoroughness so the judge was able to make an informed favorable decision. I would use them again if ever needed

Hired Attorney Gina-Marie Izzo

I cannot say enough about the incredible work Gina Izzo did on my case. From the very beginning, Gina approached everything with strength, strategy, and an unwavering commitment to doing what was right—not just for me, but for my three daughters. Her ability to put their well-being at the forefront of every decision made all the difference during an extremely challenging legal battle involving my ex-wife's cohabitation. Thanks to Gina’s tenacity and expertise, I am no longer burdened with paying alimony—something that should have ended long ago, but which required a strong and steady advocate to resolve. Gina never backed down, even when faced with my ex-wife’s notoriously difficult behavior. She remained professional, focused, and firm throughout, always ensuring the truth came forward. She is more than just a great attorney—she’s a fighter, a protector, and someone who truly cares about her clients and their families. I am beyond grateful for what she has done for me and my daughters

Hired Attorney Rachel E. Partyka

Rachel is a master at navigating the court system and relentlessly advocating for her clients. My husband and I hired Rachel for what we knew would be a highly active family law matter. She represented my husband in the most level-headed, gracious, intelligent and professional manner. Her level-headedness and ability to maintain composure was major key in my husband achieving a favorable outcome on every single issue that was before the Court. She is a gem, and we were so blessed to have her in our corner.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
