This law firm is absolutely great! Tom and his associates were able to handle my case professionally and did an amazing job, from start to finish. They helped me through my divorce and child custody. Tom was so great at explaining the entire process and also made sure that I understand everything. Extremely knowledgeable, efficient and very caring lawyers. I couldn't thank all of them for the great experience and will definitely recommend them!

Looking for a lawyer is never fun and connecting with Petrelli Previtera Schimmel has been Godsend. They helped me through my divorce and complicated property division. Was so great at explaining the process and anything that I do not understand. Very sharp and has a really special way of putting my mind at ease and relieving that litigiously-induced stress.

Our divorce process was made possible and easy, thanks to this law firm who helped me from start to finish. Tom was amazing! He was very professional, responsive, efficient and his attention to detail was impressive. I was never on my own or left me hanging. I couldn't thank Tom and his team enough for the great service received.

Beasley School of Law; this means that he has extra training to represent clients in cases that go to trial. Tom also has a strong background in mediation as well as handling high-asset divorce cases. Partner Melinda M. Previtera earned her Juris Doctor from Rutgers School of Law. While in law school, she received a certification in mediation, conducted research in child advocacy rights, and completed a domestic violence clinic. Partner Diana C.
