I had a child support issue that I was getting conflicting information on from different sources including another family attorney.
Amber Shemesh knew exactly which action we needed to take. With the help of Amber as well as Alexia, we got my issue resolved quickly and correctly. Can't thank them and recommend them enough!

I highly recommend Ms. Shemesh ESQ. Ms. Shemesh has nine years experience in the field of family law and has managed to maintain a five star avvo rating. She is highly esteemed and recognized in her field because she is professional, reliable, organized, devoted and trustworthy. This is a woman who has worked hard to establish herself in her career and built a solid, reputable practice. Familiarize yourself well with the true facts before you believe unsubstantiated negative reviews. no conviction without due process.

Ms. Shemesh has maintained a 5-star Avvo rating over the course of 9 years practicing law. The fact that a sudden influx of negative reviews is stemming from misinformation regarding an ongoing case shows the lack of proper education in those whom are leaving said reviews. Do your research before attempting to harm someone’s business, or better yet further harming the child involved by spreading information that isn’t accurate.
