Testimonials
Whoever said Money Can't Buy Happiness has never paid for a Divorce! Jason Isaacson has represented me vigorously and diligently in my hotly contested divorce. This was a litigated matter and was resolved in a tad over one year. That is really quick for any litigation, let alone a matrimonial matter that was fought on every issue. Not only was he aggressive in moving this case forward, we WON every time we went to Court! I got exclusive use and occupancy of my home! I got my car back that my ex-wife stole. I got back all the money I invested into my marital home. I have also referred many clients to Jason for matrimonial, child support and contested divorce and he wins for them too! Every client I have referred has been very happy. For my clients who are lovers and not fighters, I refer the to Jason Isaacson for mediation. As difficult as divorce is, I am the happiest I have been in my life and appreciate everything Jason has done ❤️
