TESTIMONIALS
I had a great experience with John representing me in my uncontested divorce case. It was dragging for more then a year while we were trying to come to agreement with my husband. I am so happy that John stepped in and insisted on a different version of agreement that protected my interests much better. John is honest, very effective and really looks out for his clients. I am happy with my divorce agreement and would highly recommend John as a divorce attorney. Great job!

John Conniff is exceptional. He secured a far better judgement and outcome than I originally hoped for; because he KNEW that the onslaught of attacks & petitions against me were anything but fair. He is thorough, responsive, and insightful. Above all, he truly listens, providing understanding and clarification to all of the nuances and intricacies of my case. He’s not just “going through the motions” like I’ve seen with many lawyers. Truly, he is on your side and in YOUR corner, every step of the way.

Some how after searching on yelp for an attorney, I landed at Atty Conniff’s office. I landed in the right place at the right time! He is brilliant, wise and a formidable opponent to any other.To say the least my ex’s atty was “unethical” and tried to use every trick in the book.My case was extremely challenging with opposing counsel filing meritless petitions non stop.Yet,Atty Conniff remained poised, steadfast, and relentless through out the process. He was also a compassionate counselor for me.I wanted to raise the white flag but he was always able to restore hope. Broken hearts are slow to heal but, I’m not crying anymore!! In fact I’m laughing all the way to the bank!! He made it possible for me to close this chapter in my life with a very favorable marital settlement!! I would highly recommend him as I am very grateful for his representation.
