Client Testimonials

★★★★★
Scott and Geoff were my heroes during a very contentious "gray divorce". They prepared me mentally and legally at every step, gave me sound advice, tirelessly fought for my interests, were quickly responsive to all questions...and at the end, I got a good settlement and could move on with my life. They know the laws, the strategies, and are well-respected by mediators and other family lawyers. Worth every penny. I have already recommended them highly to other persons.

I recently had the privilege of working with Geoff Platnick and the entire team at SPH, and I am absolutely delighted to share my positive experience. From the very beginning, Geoff's team exhibited an exceptional level of professionalism, skill, and empathy, which made a difficult process not only achievable but also manageable. The legal expertise demonstrated by the whole SPH team was unmistakable, as they offered thoughtful guidance, decisive strategy, and clear communications every step of the way. They were always available to answer my questions and alleviate my concerns, which provided me with a great sense of comfort and confidence. I am profoundly grateful for their direction and unwavering support during one of the most challenging times in my life. Geoff and his team were consistently one step ahead of my ex-wife's lawyers, and their thoughtful expertise enabled me to conclude my divorce while keeping my children, home, and business intact. Their dedication and commitment to my case were truly remarkable, and I cannot thank them enough. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a skilled, reliable, and compassionate divorce and custody law firm.
