Whenever I need to have a good chuckle and maybe even a good laugh, I can always depend on my friend Ira Friedman of Friedman & Friedman. The only problem I have is this, if I want to speak to Ira on May 15, 2009 I will have to call and leave […]

Several months ago I made some comments on a lawyer who I thought was brilliant. Well the other half of that team is Patrick DeCarolis of Trope & DeCarolis LLP. The name “Trope” is very much associated with DIVORCE, and “DeCarolis” is also a name very much associated with DIVORCE, thus you have Trope & […]

John’s Rate-a-Lawyer: Ron Brot
Filed Under John's Rate-a-Lawyer | 2 Comments
Aspiring exes, if you don’t like what you see in the practice of family law, aka DIVORCE, don’t get frustrated. There are dozens and dozens of players (just as in private investigators), pages of them in the phone book……Nazarian and Associates chooses not to advertise.
One of my most recent discoveries is Brot & Gross LLP […]

Just by luck I may have found some new talent. I was present when Sarah K. Thomas, lawyer, was in the throws of battle with what I guess one would call an “Oaf,” and he was big, so I guess “Big Oaf” would be appropriate here! Sarah is a graduate of The University […]

Just about the time I’ve got a feel for the Marriage Dissolution business, here comes Jay Curtis Cox, lawyer. I noticed him earlier as he had an off-beige suit, western-style boots and a tie that he must have found on a dozing homeless person. My other thought was he is from Orange County…he was! This […]

Once in a very great while I get to see “Legal Fireworks”…no not the Fourth of July kind, but the courtroom kind!
I wandered into Judge Elizabeth R. Feffer’s courtroom (she is the one that is sooooo easy on the eyes, and I bet her mother is a very pretty woman!)…well, I am sitting there, waiting […]

Well, Well, Well! Mark Vincent Kaplan, Lawyer…what can be said about Mr. Kaplan that has not been said already? Plenty, this guy has been under the radar for many years! Mr. Kaplan is a former partner of Trope and Trope, and now that firm has to remove his shoe from their asses almost […]
