I had called Duke Law Firm seeking a divorce lawyer. I was so pleased to hear that they do handle divorce cases because I had called other firms that did not at the time have any lawyers available. I met Heidi Feinberg & Althea Merryman in the beginning of 2023. Heidi is very professional, as nervous as I was-I just knew Heidi was just a down to earth person. I told her my situation and basically what I wanted and didn’t. Heidi said “ Don’t worry I will be in touch with you and I will take care of it”
“(in so many words). I knew the moment I walked into Heidi’s office things were going to be OK for me. Althea Merryman and I have been in contact by email, phone, etc including Heidi as well. You never have to wait for a response! Althea has and does get back to me in a timely manner. Absolutely a pleasure to work with. Althea is very efficient.
I would Highly recommend Heidi Feinberg & Althea Merryman /Duke Law Firm to everyone. From my experience of what I have been through. I know for a fact I could not have “DIY” (tried that” FAILED!!) Hire Duke Law Firm!! Trust Me. Heidi Feinberg & Althea Merryman are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING & THEY'RE NOT DONE YET!!
Very direct and easy to work with. At no time did i feel like my needs weren't being met. Conveyed my desired outcome and they got the ball rolling very fast. And the outcome was better than what i expected. Highly recommend.
If you are looking for a professional, responsive, and hard working team, I recommend giving duke law firm a call. Anytime I needed an update, needed to up date, or notify my lawyer with additional info regarding my case Katie West Bay was extremely quick to update, make notes of my update, and get back to me with additional info within a couple hours and sometimes minutes! My Lawyer, Mia Lowry was quick to handle everything with my situation and get answers in no time. She's really hard working and has no problem providing results! Awesome people, extremely easy to talk to, and extremely hard working. I'd give Duke Law Firm 10 stars if I could. Like I said, if you want an ambitious team, call Duke Law Firm.
I am beyond happy with my choice to have Duke Law represent me. After our first meeting, I instantly felt at ease about my situation and know I am in good hands. Catherine and Vickie have been super helpful with answering all of my questions and giving me guidance in navigating my case thus far. They are very knowledgeable, caring and are the perfect team for me.
I am a returning client to Duke Law Firm. From the moment I began my intake with Megan, I have felt confident that my legal matters are in right hands. From the very beginning, I have been impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and dedication. I appreciate the constant communication with Althea, and the check-in's I have received. Every question that I have had has been answered in a timely manner and with detail. Althea has kept me well informed throughout the entire process. Thank you for being amazing! Additionally, Heidi has been great and would highly recommend. She took the time to listen to my concerns, understand the complexities of my situation, and then meticulously crafted a strategy tailored to my needs. I felt more than a client; I felt valued. If you are in need of legal representation, I highly recommend Duke Law Firm!
Heidi and Althea went above and beyond to make sure my case was settled with my children’s best interest in mind. Heidi’s knowledge and expertise was evident in every correspondence. Althea’s attention to detail and quickness to respond to my questions assured me my case was in great hands. I cannot recommend Heidi and Althea enough! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Very patient and kind. These things are difficult. They were patient with my now ex husband when he came in to sign papers. He can be a bit difficult. That also made things easier through the process. Thank you very much!
Marcea, Vickie and Katie are fantastic and always very helpful. Would highly recommend them and Duke Law Firm.
Duke Law Firm made my divorce process simple and straight forward. They were so helpful and walked me through everything step by step. Katie and Marcy were quick to answer my questions and made me feel at ease through everything. Have already recommended them to a family member.
Catherine, Vickie, and Meagan were friendly and professional while guiding me through one of the worst experiences of my adult life. Their straightforward advice and service resulted in the best possible outcome for my particular situation. Response time for general questions was impressive. The retainer fee was higher than expected, but you get what you pay for. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone dealing with civil issues in the area. Thank you so much for everything :)
Catherine is an exceptionally knowledgeable attorney who provides unwavering support at every turn. She meticulously prepares for every aspect of your case and ensures you're kept well informed throughout the process. Catherine takes the time to thoroughly explain all details and attentively listens to your needs, offering expert guidance accordingly. Additionally, Vickie consistently handles matters promptly and efficiently, always available to address any inquiries without delay. My experience thus far has been exceedingly positive, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services.
Marcea, Katie & Lisa have been nothing short of amazing. Always professional and also very supportive and caring. These ladies have been so kind and helped me through the most difficult time of my life with my divorce. I would recommend them to anyone in my situation. ❤️
I cannot say enough about Kat Fantigrossi. She was very informative, easy to talk to, quick to respond, and no nonsense. I couldn't have chosen better representation. She made an uncomfortable situation easier to deal with and we always felt 100% supported.
Thank you!
I wanted to wait to leave this review until after my hearing so I could really give Susan an honest review. This law firm is AMAZING! Everyone I was in contact with was helpful and very responsive right out the gate. Susan is extremely patient, kind, and most
importantly, knowledgeable.
Kat from Duke lawfirm is a exceptional lawyer . Very knowledgeable and a go getter there's no messing around . She helped my girlfriend and I out with a family court issue and we were very pleased with the whole experience.
Great service. Very knowledgeable and always got things done in a timely matter. They were always there when I had questions or didn't understand things. I highly recommend Duke Law Firm!
I had a great experience with Duke Law Firm. My initial appointment was scheduled very quickly and all following appointments and communication took place very fast! Susan and Stacy were very friendly and welcoming and provided a very smooth experience with my bankruptcy. Thank you!
Susan has been outstanding! She has made an amazing amount of Headway in a year regarding divorce and custody Her thoroughness, professionalism and communication have made this a stress-free process.
During the most stressful time of my life she was so quick in answering any questions I had, and handling all paperwork extremely efficiently. She is very professional and her legal advice was right on. I have to say that I would absolutely recommend Duke Law Firm. Susan Duke clearly explains the steps to be taken and is timely with updates. Susan, Stacy and Bridget are knowledgeable, understanding and efficient, helping to make a difficult situation much more manageable.
In searching for an attorney to handle my legal issues, I wanted someone who was non-biased to gender and who would to be fair to all parties involved. I found Susan Duke and her staff to be both knowledgeable and professional. She is compassionate and has the ability to explain legal issues in layman's terms to calm her client's concerns and fears; while never offering false hope for an outcome that is not possible. Her demeanor made it easy to discuss even the most personal issues related to my case with dignity. I also found her staff to be incredibly helpful and give both my highest recommendation. I would not hesitate to recommend her office.
Great team of knowledgeable attorneys! That all work together for you to make everything as smooth as glass! You certainly get what you pay for
Was an awesome experience. Very professional and explained things in a way I could understand. Thank you very much. I would definitely refer your office to anyone that needs help.
I am currently being represented by Susan Duke in my divorce, and she is professional, knowledgeable, organized, and incredibly impressive. I can't recommend her highly enough. Please note that after a court hearing today my ex, Korey B, left her a negative review, but this is only because she is an amazing lawyer that he has the misfortune of being up against.
I can only say positive things about my experience with Duke Law Firm. They were extremely prompt, honest, and understanding while helping me through my divorce. I highly recommend their staff and services.
In all my professional life, I have never run across such an ethical, responsive, and professional service such as Duke Law Firm. The final steps of my divorce and then subsequent QDRO services took over 2 years and the team at this agency walked with me every step. I highly recommend them.
Duke Law Firm was very professional every step of our journey through Family Court. The Office was very respectful and responsive, I always was kept up to date and prepared for each step. I have repeatedly recommended Duke Law , and will continue to do so
I would highly recommend Ms. Duke. I found myself dealing with alot of situations that I've never felt with before. Ms . Duke was informative, respectful, able, and willing to answer all my questions. She is a highly ethical person and will do what is Just and right. Thank you Duke Law Firm from getting me from point A to point B!!
An extremely professional established firm. From the initial consultation and throughout my process, Duke Law Firm was direct, diligent, friendly, open, transparent and helpful. This firm is worth your money as they take care of you every step of the way answering all your questions and never late in replying and updating you with your legal process. Don't hesitate to come to them with your legal needs. All the best and success to them and their clients. :)
I have worked with Duke Law Firm on two different matters and both times Susan and Stacy were great. They were both very knowledgeable and helpful. They were very prompt in answering any questions I had and walked me through anything I was unsure of. Susan and her staff were great! I would highly recommend Duke Law Firm!
Duke Law: The Best Decision We Made” If you're looking for an honest, affordable, reliable, genuine, patient and intelligent attorney for your bankruptcy or family court issue(s), CALL SUSAN at DUKE LAW - you will not regret retaining her. She is on top of the law, fast to respond, very attentive to your case/needs, fair-priced and will not just tell you what you want to hear (that can happen a lot with lawyers, but not this one). This year (2020 - the year from hell), we retained Susan, after searching and searching for an attorney (for years we put off court, because we just couldn't find the right attorney, or the right price). We met with many, but none of them held a candle to Duke Law. Susan's retainer fee/total cost was WAY BELOW the others we found (by hundreds of dollars). She also utilizes up-to-date/modern technology (we had one attorney hand us a pencil and paper to capture our situation, Susan used a software program that was very user-friendly, and much more efficient than the old paper/pencil route). Her office is AWESOME, very clean (we even went during 2020/COVID, and the girls had the place spotless/very sanitary, followed all safety/COVID regulations too) - other offices we visited were in the back of people's apartments, dirty, very unprofessional, sometimes even scary, but not Duke Law - they've a great, safe, modern, clean, convenient and local office, in an actual office building, not her home! (If you're coming from the city, or southern tier, she's located about a mile or two from 390, very convenient). Her staff/team is also awesome: her assistant is very caring, intelligent, super fast to reply, and her receptionist is very friendly too! I was amazed at the small town feel, yet very professional experience. The entire team is amazing; I cannot sing their praises loud enough!! Hiring an attorney can be nerve-wracking, but not with Duke Law. As soon as we met with Susan, our fears were calmed, and we retained her on the spot. She instantly set the actions in motion, solving our issue as fast as COVID (and gathering all our ducks in a row) would allow. Susan not only works FOR you; she works WITH you. The ladies were able to not only resolve our legal issue, but also went above and beyond to be sure other issues were handled as well (something most attorneys do not do - many simple handle the task/issue they're paid for and move on, but not Duke Law - Susan made sure ALL of our issues were taken care of, followed up on things she wasn't even retained to handle, and was the saving grace for us). If you need to file bankruptcy, get divorced, handle child custody or visitation schedules, or any other family court case/issue, have no fear, Duke Law is here - for you and not just for your money. If you're suffocating from the weight of your legal problem, there is hope, there is a way to breathe again, and there is a way to afford handling your issue. They made our nightmare manageable, affordable and totally resolved/disappear in the end (and all this during an unprecedented pandemic - I was simply stunned)!! She gives FREE quotes, so if you're in need of a respected, honest, professional, intelligent, affordable, reliable, and genuine attorney, call Susan at Duke Law today, I promise you will be glad you did. I was, and now we can finally breathe again. Susan lifted a HUGE weight off our shoulders, she was the bright, guiding light in a very dark tunnel, and she can do, and be, the same for you. Just call her, and she'll start the journey WITH you. I believe in Duke Law, and their ability to navigate the law, protect you and yours, and get done what needs to get done NOW (not a month, or year from now). I couldn't have chosen a better team to handle our issue. I don't usually write these things, but was so impressed with Duke Law, so amazed at the entire process, and simply stunned by the results, I had to share my thoughts with you. Thank you for reading my review, now stop fretting and call Susan!!
I hired her for divorce and custody arrangements. She was extremely honest and professional with me. She is one of the good ones. She is very serious about her work and is highly knowledgeable in her field. I recommend putting her on your side of the courtroom.
As stressful as any legal proceeding can be, I felt that the Duke Law Firm had my back 100% of the way. Susan and her team kept me updated on every step and were quick to answer any questions I had, explaining the process as we proceeded. I hope I wont need her again, but I now know who I can trust. I would definitely recommend The Duke Law Firm for those seeking a great attorney!
Very knowledgeable in all aspects of the law, Very prompt and courteous will recommend her to anyone.
Susan and her staff were fantastic! Very friendly and incredibly prompt when responding to my questions. I would definitely recommend Duke Law Firm
Susan is very professional and kind to her clients and is worth every penny you spend I'm very prone to have her as my lawyer and on my side.
Susan and her team are amazing. I have utilized her services for several situations. Any and all of my questions/concerns were answered timely and completely. Susan was upfront with her fee’s and how the court processes work. I never felt out of the loop of which process we were in. I especially appreciated how I was contacted regarding what paperwork/documents were required of me and how to send them to her office. To most people the word “Court” sounds bad, but Susan and her team are lights out. I’m hoping in the future I don’t have too many more court dates, but if so I want Susan as MY Lawyer.
I divorced 6 years ago in which there was a QDRO. The attorneys that I had for the divorce had no idea what they were doing in regards to the distribution of $125,000 QDRO. I since moved from NY to Florida which compounded the issue. I contacted Susan Duke and immediately 2 things happened, Susan returned my call then said she would represent me!! Awesome! Amazing!!! Her fee was reasonable but Susan had to start from scratch with the 6 year old QDRO. Like “blow off all the dust” amended, calling previous firm for release of counsel, judge to sign it and contact corporate guardian for the previous release amended. Susan Duke took charge and within no time; shiny new QDRO with a distribution!!! Did I say awesome & amazing??? No stress, up to date status and done!!! I called Susan when the distribution check came in the mail and asked if I could send her a bonus but she gracefully declined. Susan Duke is knowledgeable, professional and dedicated! And AMAZING!!! I can not thank Susan enough!!!
Susan was a friendly, experienced lawyer. She was accessible and affordable, and she brought a professional touch to the work I had her do (family law).
I just can’t say enough good things about them! I highly recommend her office!
This is my 2nd time using susan duke in my custody situation with my daughter. During these most difficult heart wrenching times in a parent/ child life susan has been amazing, straight to the point, very responsive , most of the time within 10 to 20 min after i send my emails of communication. susan is the best attorney ive ever had !!!! WORTH EVERY CENT YOU WONT BE DISSATISFIED, very fair and reasonable. During covid we have done all our communication over the phone or by email which has been very convienient. So need to worry how near or far susan duke a just a click away right in the comfort of your own home..
Everything went very smooth & was handled in a timely & very professional manor. Would highly recommend !!
Heidi is a fantastic attorney. I hired her to handle my custody case, she is an extremely hard worker, knew the laws, and rights a father should have. Shes very responsive when I had questions, and was not afraid to stand up in meetings to challenge the other attorneys comments and statements. I would definitely recommend Heidi for anybody looking for a great attorney.
Susan was wonderful through the whole process of my divorce. She was straight forward with everything we discussed and answered all my questions. Calls were returned promptly and her staff - I just can’t say enough good things about them! I highly recommend her office!
Communication with Stacy at the firm is consistent with prompt attention to detail necessary moving forward with Esquire Susan Duke....Emails request documents necessary....provide answers to questions posed as related to case....follow up emails ensure attention to case at hand....appts with Esquire Duke arranged within 7 to 10 days....drop off of documents are addressed in 48 hrs via email for any lacking credentials outstanding or necessary and prudent to case at hand....pleasant and repetitive reinforcement never met with an attitude of condescending tone due to client uncertain circumstances concerning legal procedures. Extremely pleased with professional staff and professional advice!
The Duke firm was very professional, with a true personal touch. Susan and the girls were always available for any questions I had, and kept prices true to her quote
Both Susan and Stacy were wonderful. They kept in contact through the whole process. They responded to all of my question really fast and did an excellent job of explaining how the process works and how thing will be handled. They are very friendly and make you feel welcomed.
Heidi was very attentive to my needs and concerns during my custody case. She’s well versed in family law and had all the answers to my questions. Althea was always extremely responsive and made sure my calls and e-mails were returned in a timely manner (usually day of!) Overall great experience with the Duke law firm and I would absolutely recommend them!
I have been treated with kindness and compassion by the staff at Duke law firm,PC. Ms. Duke was very honest, informing and forthright and is helping me navigate through a very difficult time in my life.
I wanted to wait to leave this review until after my hearing so I could really give Susan an honest review. This law firm is AMAZING! Everyone I was in contact with was helpful and very responsive right out the gate. Susan is extremely patient, kind, and most importantly, knowledgeable. During proceedings she was on point and nothing slipped by her. She asked all the right questions and got her point across plus a very well spoken closing statement. I don’t know the outcome of our case yet but that has no bearing on how well I felt I was represented. I would 10/10 recommend her. Hopefully I won’t need an attorney again for anything, but if I do, this firm is where I’ll be coming back to.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
