Click to report rating    11/13/20   5     5     5     5     5   A friend in Colorado recommended us to the Law Office Of Susan Marhoffer. Our case was somewhat difficult due to my sister being deaf and it was harder to communicate in all aspects of the process. Susan was very knowledgeable, professional and we only worked directly with her and not a bunch of paralegals and that was something I appreciated. She always answered email and phone calls within a matter of minutes. Susan came through in a big, positive way and was very honest and forthright through the entire process. Susan was very effective in the courtroom and respected by the other attorneys, too. I would definitely recommend her! Thanks Susan for the great service! RID: 225196
Click to report rating    6/12/20   3     3     3     1     2   I can not in good faith recommend Susan as an outstanding attorney to others. On several occasions she recommended that I pursue actions that would just lead to more confrontation with my child's other parent, such as keeping my child for additional days when they weren't granted in the orders. She failed to see the case to conclusion of signed final orders by the court. Instead, she withdrew from the case, and upon asking for additional funds with the agreement that she would re-enter an appearance as attorney of record, she failed to re-enter an appearance on the case. While I did manage to get the parenting time I was after, the financial side of child support was not resolved. The wording of the parenting plan was very hard to follow and at times contradictory to other parts of the document. This has caused numerous confrontations with the other parent. Susan is good at letting you feel that she will fight for you, but the quality of the resultant documentation was lacking. RID: 222061
Click to report rating    8/7/17   5     5     5     5     5   Susan is the best family lawyer in my opinion. If you want the best working on your case, she is the one. Susan Marhoffer provides professional advice. She is very knowledgeable and experienced in the field. From the first conversation, she correctly predicted what to anticipate in my case. Her expertise gave me confidence to continue with the her. Susan is professional with outstanding leadership and talent. Her guidance has been invaluable. I would highly recommend Marhoffer Law offices. RID: 188692

 6/22/16   5     5     5     5     5   Susan is an amazing attorney. She is very straightforward and honest. Our first meeting she took the time to listen to my concerns, gave very honest feedback and provided an outline of what the case would entail moving forward. Susan was always prompt to respond to emails or phone calls. Her skills inside the courtroom were top notch! I highly recommend Susan! Susan is very easy to work with and would absolutely use her again if needed. You will not be disappointed. RID: 170868

 11/11/14   5     5     5     5     5   I used to work for attorneys and Susan is at the top of my list for competent attorneys! She is brilliant when advising her clients on what may or may not work and is only concerned about their best interest. She does her due diligence on research needed, promptly returns phone calls and emails and keeps clients advised on status of their case. She is one amazing woman and I will be referring her to my clients. RID: 146005

 11/10/14   5     5     5     5     5   Susan Marhoffer is a competent, skilled, and honest attorney with superb professional insight. She has great instincts for which arguments will prevail on court and which will fall short. Susan not only won everything we requested in court (80% custody, holiday schedule, protective orders) but her parenting plan draft was so well thought-out that it was approved with no virtually no modifications from the judge. I fired 4 attorneys before Susan, 2 of which I endured trials with and I assure you she is the best in town. At trial, she came prepared with evidence books that were professional and persuasive. She also referred me to an excellent PI. Although Susan's rates are comparable to others, her bills are lower than any of my previous attorneys because she doesn't over bill, a practice which seems too common in family law. I have referred friends as well as clients to Susan. She was referred to me by a law professor and once I met her I knew I'd made the right decision. RID: 145986

 7/22/14   5     5     5     5     5   Susan helped me with my child custody battle with my ex-girl friend. She listened to my concerns and got me 50/50 custody parenting plan with my child. I would recommend her to anyone. RID: 140010

 1/29/14   5     4     5     5     5   Susan masterfully stonewalled my ex-wife's attempts at violating the court injunction. Acting with the utmost integrity she maintained my advantage by sticking to the high ground throughout the proceedings. Ultimately, my ex's shananigans were met with a public reprimanding by the judge. Susan knows her stuff and was not timid to act swiftly on my behalf to protect my rights and property. Thanks Susan! RID: 131307
     8/27/13   5     4     5     5     5   Susan has been a great attorney. She helped guide us in what we could do ourselves and stepped in when needed during issues that required her assistance. She's usually pretty good about communicating promptly and wasn't afraid to give solid recommendations of when to push forward and when to back off. Highly recommend. RID: 122232
Click to report rating    1/23/10   5     5     5     5     5   Her advice on timing, when to back off or soften an approach, balancing negotiations and how to approach the different judges in the Danbury court system was spot on. She was very responsive to requests for information and provided clear explanations for what was the likely outcome of each course of action considered. Her attentiveness to the welfare of the children never waivered. In all, I would highly recommend her. RID: 26460

 1/16/10   5     5     5     5     5   The court allwed my ex to move away with my children after my first attorney gave me very poor advice. Susan Marhoffer took my case and my children are now back with me and my ex only gets supervised visitation. RID: 26217
Click to report rating    10/7/09   1     1     1     1     1   She was only interested in money, when she found out there was none she decided the divorce case should just be settled. We had a court hearing and I never knew about it till a few days before. When I inquired what the hearing was for she said it was to settle the case. Yet she had little information to do this. Well you know the saying "money talks" well this seems the case here. I have since spoken to many of her female x clients who said she burned them as well. RID: 22914
Click to report rating    6/20/08   5     5     5     5     5   My ex-husband just admitted he wrote the negative rating for this lawyer. What sour grapes - just because the Judge awarded me $15,000 a month for twelve years and the house. She was worth every penny. RID: 10423
Click to report rating    4/20/07   4     5     5     5     5   Can't be a crazy, vindictive client like the one below. Very smart woman. Returns calls promptly. Makes you feel in charge of your own divorce. But you have to quit foaming at the mouth to attack ex. RID: 3624
Click to report rating    10/28/05   5     5     5     5     4   With her knowledge of the law, the other attorneys and the judges she gave me advice on how the case would likely turn out and she was dead on. Phone calls were returned the same day and her preparation for trial was meticulous - she knew my case better than I did! Legal fees were high but not out of line with other lawyers I interviewed. RID: 874
