Reviews for Jerry
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.I was going through a divorce and I went through so many lawyers until I found Jerry A. Fogelman, he will tell how you how it is flat out, I trusted in Jerry every time I had a question about my divorce he would reply back within minutes, I couldn’t done it with out him. He won my case it took a while but he did it. So if your looking for a lawyer this is the guy he will fight for you to the end.
I’ve been a police officer for 12+ years and I have dealt with a lot of lawyers in that time on top of experiencing a nasty divorce myself; I ended up firing my original divorce lawyer, because I needed fighter. Jerry came highly recommended and I hired him after I had to go back to court in post-divorce issues. Jerry deserves combat pay for what he had to deal with regarding my ex-wife and her lawyer on a constant basis and the mess that he walked into when I hired him. Being a Marine that served in The Triangle of Death during Operation Iraqi Freedom, I know what I’m talking about when I say that this was extremely stressful dealing with her; Jerry always remained a true professional and he never quit fighting. Jerry never gave up on me, most lawyers would have, and he did an amazing job constantly battling my ex-wife and her lawyer to give me more time with my kids and making sure I kept more of my money. I wish I hired Jerry in the beginning and I will only hire Jerry from now on.
Divorce is never easy but Jerry got me through this phase without issue. He was upfront and honest as to what I could expect. I appreciate him.
Very knowledgeable and efficient. I was going through a non-contested divorce, and he was able to get me through the process quickly. Throughout the entire process, he also explained everything thoroughly. I highly recommend him!
Through the years, Mr Fogelman has handled my divorce, sale of my home, and the purchase of another home. I will never forget the first time that I met him with regards to handling my divorce. He started the conversation by saying "Let me guide you on this journey." I could not have had a better guide through a very troubling time in my life. Thank you Jerry for your past services rendered and any future legal matters that I may need to call on you once again.
