Hired Attorney Debra R. Schoenberg

I deeply regret hiring Schoenberg Family Law. Their harassment tactics were unbearable; I was constantly pressured for payments. Despite providing extensive documentation for my same-sex divorce, including financial records and custody arrangements, I received a $65,000 bill. Their disrespectful behavior and disorganized approach made the process excruciating.

Hired Attorney Debra R. Schoenberg

My experience with Schoenberg Family Law was a nightmare. They aggressively harassed me with constant demands for payment throughout my same-sex divorce case. Despite providing all necessary documentation for asset division and custody arrangements, I was billed $55,000. Their disrespectful behavior and poor communication made me feel completely exploited.

Hired Attorney Debra R. Schoenberg

Schoenberg Family handled my case poorly. I provided all relevant details, but I was billed $90,000 for what seemed like basic administrative tasks. Their infrequent communication and lack of thorough case review made me feel completely cheated.

I provided all the documentation Schoenberg Family needed, yet I was billed $77,000 in just two months. They had minimal interaction with my ex's attorney and provided no justification for their fees. I felt completely taken advantage of.

I provided Schoenberg Family with all the necessary documents for my divorce, but they still managed to charge me $73,000 in less than two months. Their lack of communication and sky-high fees were incredibly frustrating. I felt completely taken advantage of.

Schoenberg Family Law was a terrible choice. Their harassment over billing was incessant, and their disrespectful behavior was unacceptable. I gave them all necessary documents for my LGBTQ+ family case but was charged $96,000. Their aggressive billing practices and lack of effective communication left me feeling completely exploited.

I regret choosing Schoenberg Family Law. Their harassment over fees was relentless, and their disrespectful behavior was shocking.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
