Ramatowski & Schwartz

Highly recommend!! My case was complicated and long! Schwartz stuck with me through all of it and won consistently and fairly. She facilitated and Justice prevailed.

Working with Ellen was an absolute pleasure. She did not predict or mislead, she was always up front and honest. There is nothing black and white to family law in NJ, however, Ellen, did very well explaining everything thoroughly and there were no surprises. Thank you Ellen!!

My case was complicated and I was emotionally charged. There were a variety of moving parts including a spouse facing criminal charges, custody issues, DCPP, and the divorce. Ellen was focused, clear, and concise. Ultimately with Ellen's guidance and communication skills I was able to navigate the divorce process gracefully and expediently in under 8 months with favorable results. I would highly recommend Ellen.

Ellen represented me in the most professional manner, her ethics are of the highest standards. Her friendship , courtesy ,knowledge and honesty have become very important to me during the last year as she represented me in my divorce. Her staff also were extremely kind and reassuring during a difficult and frightening time in my life.

Ellen represented me in connection with a post-dissolution matter, which included custody issues that ultimately led to a court hearing which was like a mini trial. She was fully prepared for and artfully conducted direct, cross examination, and submission of evidence for the Judge's consideration. She was firm yet polite and professional with a very difficult pro se on the other side. As a result of Ellen's hard work, I now have full custody of my daughter and she is in a healthy, loving environment 100% of the time, as opposed to only 50%.

Ellen Schwartz represented me in my divorce and then again in an additional child support case brought against me. She is professional, compassionate, experienced and prompt in handling family issues--which is so important in divorce proceedings. She helped me understand the process and gave excellent legal advice. It was a stressful time in my life and Ellen was a strong advocate for me and my child.

Ellen saved my life in many ways several years ago. My divorce was ugly and nasty and difficult, Ellen made me feel safe and cared for. She was always quickly responsive, as was her fabulous paralegal and office staff. She directed me sometimes gently and sometimes with a stronger hand that I needed. I trusted her fully. She was on my side as a person, not just as someone I was paying. She is extremely smart, a great advocate and I have referred many friends to her over the past several years. I hope you don't need a matrimonial attorney, but if you do, this is the partner you want!

Ellen is very easy to work with. She is professional, knowledgeable and extremely well respected in legal circles, which I found can make quite a difference. I knew I could trust Ellen’s guidance since she always had my best interest in mind. She is fair, dependable and trustworthy and I highly recommended her services.

Ellen is a heaven sent, with this process its an emotional journey. She is someone that listens to you to understand your perspective and will guide you in this emotional journey. Ellen and her para-legal Lisa are quite the duo. Ellen takes the time to answer my many phone calls and emails. She is very knowledgeable and a no nonsense kind of attorney. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through this time of there life.

Ellen was a great representative during my divorce. She charged for the work she performed on my behalf as expected. Lawyers charge for their service and Ellen explained the fee structure in detail before we began the process. The value was excellent from my perspective.
