I highly recommend Geoff. He and his all-star team assisted me through a difficult and contentious divorce and child custody case. Geoff's knowledge and personal relationships really assisted in the positive outcome of my case. Geoff was efficient throughout the case to keep costs reasonable and was helpful in directing me to gather documents and information for effective pleadings and strong strategies in Court. Geoff really went to bat for me, and I am very grateful for his services.

Geoff Platnick as one of the finest Family Law attorneys that I have worked with. I admire all aspects of his approach to a case. Geoff is thorough in every aspect of his case preparation. He ensures that his client is ready to be deposed and to face cross examination, and he discusses his questioning of others with his client and experts. Geoff knows how to disagree without being disagreeable and is ready to take on any sort of opposition. He is a go to guy on high profile cases or any case.

Strategic and Pragmatic. Geoff has seen plenty of situations and how they play out. Geoff has an expert understanding of the process. Geoff does a great job of communication and letting you know what’s going on by including you in his plans and actions. At the end of the day, every one of our decisions was client inclusive. He can be very aggressive in his strategy, while with the same breath, he can be pragmatic, asking you how you are doing.

I could not have found a better attorney than Geoff Platnick to guide me through the painful and confusing process of my divorce. I also could not have asked for a more successful outcome with my case. Geoff handled every step with both professionalism and sensitivity. He not only provided strategic thinking and sound legal advice, but he also lent a sympathetic ear when I needed it. And somewhere along the way, he became a friend. I will always be grateful for all of Geoff's hard work.
