Jill Altarac – Top Notch Attorney

“Jill Altarac is the best divorce attorney in New York, the USA and possible the World! I am blessed, privileged and honored to have had her on my side. I hired Jill in March 2020 to represent me regarding a non-reconciliation marriage and subsequent separation. It was very contentious but Jill did everything within her power to keep a capsizing ship afloat bringing it to satisfactory conclusion. From 2020 to date, I have had and still have absolute confidence in her ability to provide wise and excellent advice. Every instruction that she has proposed over these two years were transparent and successful. Ms. Altarac is extremely efficient, professional and patient. I have never found her to be dishonest, unethical and dismissive. Jill is a TOP NOTCH attorney. I therefore recommend her services to anyone who needs a competent and excellent attorney.”

A dedicated advocate and great attorney who is responsive, truthful and supportive.

“Jill brought me through a very tough divorce, start to finish. She knows her stuff. She always responded to me quickly, was patient and honest, even when having to tell me something difficult to hear. I knew she was on my side and was ready and willing to fight for me when necessary. I would highly recommend Jill to anyone needing an attorney.”

So thankful…

“I hired Jill during the most stressful time of my life. I immediately found her to be smart, calming and diligent, and hoped that I would somehow get through this process of separation and custody okay. Now that it’s over, I’m so thoroughly impressed by Jill, and her associate Kristin, for their work ethic, intelligence, experience, creativity and compassion- not to mention their incredible response time and professionalism. Every option, detail and legal requirement was explained and discussed to ensure that I was well advised. They handled everything so thoroughly that it eliminated so much stress caused by my situation. I would recommend Jill Altarac to everyone that I care about.”

“I had the pleasure of being represented by Ms. Altarac while I was going through what remains the most difficult situation of my life. She was always professional as well as empathetic in handling my case. I know very little about the law and were it not for Ms. Altarac I would have not had the first idea how to look after or secure those things that were in the best interest of myself and my family. I will always appreciate her work to help me move through that very difficult time and be able to experience the blessings on the other side.”

“Jill Altarac has been representing me regarding post marital issues for the past several years. Not only has Jill represented herself well against opposing counsel but she was always empathic to my concerns and held my hand throughout her representation of me. Her firm is astute and on point before all trial dates and Jill has always been prepared before entering a court room. In addition to her fine work, her fees were reasonable and her firm never looked to gouge me. I have and will continue to recommend The Altarac Law Firm to all my friends and colleagues”

After a 4 and 1/2 year divorce I can highly recommend Jill Altarac as an experienced, thoughtful and caring attorney who will give you the personalized service you deserve and may not receive at a larger firm. Jill’s experience and affable nature creates a productive working relationship with her clients, the courts and opposing counsel. But when she needs to go to battle on your behalf you will be thankful she is representing you and not your ex. Additionally, her focus on always doing what is in the best interest of children is comforting if you are a parent going through a divorce. Since I am also an attorney I believe I am probably a harsher critic then most when it comes to legal services and I was and am a satisfied customer. I chose Jill after interviewing 5 other firms. Just sit down with Jill for 15 minutes and you will recognize why I felt such a level of comfort with Jill during this very tumultuous time in my life.

Great attorney. Kristin did a good job with my divorce. She stayed on top of things and was very easy to deal with. She always made sure I understood what was going on and always pushed to have things move quickly. She was very fair with her time and billing.

I was highly recommended to Jill by a close friend that was going through the same issues. I made an appointment to consult with her and hired her on the spot in order. Although Jill comes off very sweet and nice she is a PIT BULL in court. Jill was straight to the point and didn’t want to my case to drag out forever. After looking back at what I spent it could have been a lot worse since my case was very complicated. In the end JILL was able to get my case settled on my terms. I am not a client who waits around for answer. I called her office almost everyday and when she wasn’t in the office would call and text her on her cell phone even on weekends and yes on Sunday as well. Her entire staff was very friendly and although I must have been a big pain they were very understanding. If you need an attorney on you side to make sure you get a fair deal then you must hire the Jill Altarac Esq. and no she didn’t charge me extra for my 7am calls.

I can’t say enough about Jill.
I absolutely love this lawyer and lady.
I had gone through 2 different lawyers, where I had terrible experiences.
Jill was always upfront with me, and clear with her expectations for how the case would proceed.
She is an expert in the legal process, her motions are very precise and extremely effective.
Working with Jill has been a pleasure.
She performed flawlessly at all times.
Jill far exceeded the expectations set in our initial consultation.
