- ★★★★★Could not be more pleased.
anonymous ·
Great experience with services provided by Zitman Law. Communication was fantastic and outlook towards what was best for my situation was always present.
- ★★★★★Highly recommended
anonymous · family law ·
Ms. Zitman was with me through a highly contested divorce/custody matter that lasted much longer than it should have due to the other side's often erratic and irrational behavior. Through the ups and downs, she always maintained the moral and ethical high ground while keeping my best interests in min d. She worked tirelessly to avoid what would have been a long, draining trial; and the end result was an extremely favorable settlement.
- ★★★★★Great and helpful lawyer for a separation agreement
Michael · family law ·
Colleen was a big help in reviewing a separation agreement that my ex-wife and I agreed upon. She was easy to work with and helped add in some extra protections on my behalf.
- ★★★★★Highly Attentive and Professional
Sean ·
Colleen is a highly professional attorney who made a very difficult time that much easier due to her compassionate and caring nature. Her attentiveness means she’ll get back to you quickly, a rare quality nowadays. She is an experienced professional and knows her stuff. I would highly recommend her to my own friends and family.
- ★★★★★They turned it around for me

Prior to meeting Meredith Lusthaus and Maria Coffinas, I had gone the cheap way and within weeks I lost custody of my son. Worst time of my life. I was recommended to Coffinas and Lusthaus and so glad I made the switch to their firm. Meredith Lusthaus was incredibly tough but also looking at the big picture to get it resolved. No unnecessary bickering. Just muscles when counterpart would not collaborate. Very happy with my choice.
- ★★★★★Honest, Professional & Reliable
Ted · family law ·
Meeting & having Maria Coffinas represent me for my divorce was a blessing! She is a dedicated knowledgeable professional who really cares about her clients. Everything went extremely smooth. I would highly recommended using her firm.
- ★★★★★She doesn’t know the law. Gave me wrong advice that cost me thousands
anonymous · family law ·
I paid $500 for a consultation with Maria Coffinas on June 27, 2025. I asked which records I should keep to support my childcare obligations claim, and she told me Zelle payments to the caretaker were enough. I just received my court judgment saying that Zelle payment records were not legally suffici ent and as a result of her advice I cannot be reimbursed by child’s father for the $20,000k in childcare expenses I paid out of pocket while the case was ongoing. I am a lawyer myself and am shocked at the level of incompetence Ms. Coffinas displayed. She won’t even refund the consultation fee and claims she didn’t “represent” me. I will be reporting her to the bar.
- ★★★★★Extremely knowledgeable and well respected
anonymous · family law ·
How many times a litigant would send flowers to her attorney and a box of chocolates to her staff for going above and beyond the call of duty? Maria Coffinas was remarkable throughout my highly contested 2-year divorce action. Maria is not only extremely knowledgeable about the law, but she is also v ery intelligent and tactful in handling the opposing counsel. You want an attorney who has uncompromised integrity, who is an expert in family law and who is extremely well respected by judges and attorneys; Maria has all these attributes. I have a tremendous level of admiration, respect and gratitude to Maria for handling my case in the most effective possible way. I will retain Maria Coffinas again and I am happy to highly recommend her practice.
- ★★★★★Excellent
anonymous · family law ·
As a matrimonial attorney myself, I found Maria to be exceptionally available and capable. I would def recommend her to anyone going through a very difficult time to be shepherded through to the "other side" - A.V.
- ★★★★★A true lifesaver... I highly recommend...
Heather · family law ·
Meredith gave me hope. She cared deeply about my child's and my welfare. Meredith did everything in her power to make things better and safer for my child and me. Good advice was given and for the first time in years I knew that the truth would come out and it did. I would highly recommend Meredith to any person needing hope and help in resolving what seems to be impossible. Meredith is extremely reasonable, will explain each option and what the outcome could be with each. An extremely responsible attorney that gets back to you immediately and nothing ever fell thru the cracks. On a personal level, while Meredith is extremely professional and knows the law inside and out, she has a heart of gold and is extremely empathetic.
- ★★★★★A sharp strategist who knows New York divorce law cold
M · family law ·
After six months of going around in circles, I hired Meredith hoping to settle, but preparing to litigate. She was an energetic advocate, and I was confident in her ability to do either. Meredith is a sharp strategist who knows New York divorce law and the matrimonial courts cold. She worked smartly and quickly, was highly responsive, and pushed hard for me without sugarcoating the situation if the law didn’t favor me on an issue. Meredith guided me to the settlement that was best for me and my children, and I am very grateful. I only wish I had hired her sooner.
- ★★★★★Professional, touch and sharp. Great outcome
anonymous · family law ·
Meredith was amazing thru out my case, child's custody&support, assisting me to make decisions along the way. And I am very pleased with the outcome, especially as a father. She was very professional, highly knowledgeable and tough at the court. Highly recommended.
- ★★★★★Fantastic Attorney
Frank · family law ·
Merideth was a lifesaver for my family. We actually worked on two divorces together. The second one was insanely difficult because my kids were involved and my ex wife chose one of the worst divorce lawyers in the business. He simply did not want to settle eventhough my ex wife did. I really don't kn ow what I would have done without Merideths help. She is a real pro and she knows how not to make matters worse than they already are. I would and have recommended her to anyone that asks me. Hire her, she won't let you down!
- ★★★★★You're in good hands with Meredith Lusthaus
Stefani · family law ·
I had the great luck to be represented by Meredith Lusthaus for my divorce. My divorce process was not easy, but I felt completely confident in Meredith and her staff. Meredith was always available to me for my many questions. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate.

- ★★★★★Exceptional Attorney - The best I came across
Juan · litigation ·
I must say that is it very rare to find a lawyer that is so affordable yet is so caring and attentive and has attention to detail. Mr Louis fought for me diligently and accomplished results. His attention to detail Is unsurpassed. I definitely was impressed by his strategy as well as his communica tions with me. (Lots of lawyers just ignore you after retain them and pay their fee. Not Mr Louis - He always contacted me back asap and took the time to follow up and explain everything to me as well as being attentive. I will definitely refer him to anyone I know.
