Hired Attorney

Mr. Dikman is a highly knowledgeable, professional and ethical attorney. I had no hesitation in retaining him to represent me in my divorce and I never regretted my decision. The lines of communication were open at all times and I was always treated with respect by Mr. Dikman and his staff. During an extremely difficult time in my life I always felt as though I had an exceptional attorney as my advocate. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.

Hired Attorney

I was referred to David Dikman by a colleague, and boy am I glad I retained him for both my divorce and a Family Court action. He helped me navigate the severely dysfunctional legal system we're stuck with in NY. He explained what could reasonably be done without sugar-coating things. You really need someone to "tell it like it is" in a divorce. Most lawyers will try to drag things out to run up the bill. Not David. He is tough, and will fight for you. He is extremely knowledgable, and that experience shows. When the going gets tough, you need someone like David to be in court with you. I recommend him highly. (BTW, his secretary, Paulette, is one of the nicest people you'll meet, especially in the legal field.)

Hired Attorney

Tried to take advantage/bully in a simple No Fault/No Contest Divorce/When he was terminated, he intentionally used up the entire retainer balance and had a temper tantrum/tried to professionally work it out, but, he responded in anger and lies as well as vindictive behavior/Stated he was yelled at, but, does not realize there were witnesses that heard the entire conversation, BOTH sides!!/the Bill will be reviewed by an independent Forum and his lies will be uncovered!!
