What recent reviews say

Clients consistently praise Sari Friedman and her team for deep legal knowledge, clear guidance through stressful proceedings, and strong courtroom results in divorce, custody, and relocation matters. Staff members including attorneys Laraib Butt and Crystal Pannell are named as strategic and thorough; many reviewers felt genuinely supported rather than just represented.

One disputed negative review aside, the firm's strength lies in turning around cases others mishandled and earning lasting client loyalty across decades of practice on Long Island and in New York.
