“At arguably the most difficult time in my life, Christine helped me cope with my situation and gave me a solid basis for hope going forward. She got to know me. She understood what I wanted and helped me understand my legal options. Christine is intelligent, incredibly well-versed in the law and was able to pro-actively take the bull by the horns in caring for both my legal and emotional needs. Instead of letting things drag on, Christine stayed on top of my case and kept costs at a minimum. She was always available to me, fast, efficient, knowledgeable, and caring. I highly recommend her professional services.

A Cheap Long Island Divorce Lawyer Can Be Very Expensive
Hiring a cheap Long Island divorce lawyer promoting a low advertised retainer can drag your divorce out for months, inflating your legal fees along the way. Some divorce law firms offer a low retainer and charge you for paralegal work like filling out forms and filing paperwork at experienced divorce attorney rates and then charging higher hourly rates when your retainer is exhausted.
At Hornberger Verbitsky, P.C. we charge affordable rates to everyone.
Our rates are fair and reasonable and you will have only an experienced attorney involved in your case. You will save money because we work hard to keep your legal fees to a minimum by resolving your case as quickly as possible.
Also beware the “$450 Divorce” Law firms offering divorces at low rates. These “divorce factories” are concerned with quantity, not quality. They won’t tell you that the filing fees in Nassau County or Suffolk County Supreme Court alone can cost $450, on top of your initial $450. Already you’re up to nearly $1,000 and they haven’t done anything yet.
Hire an experienced Long Island divorce lawyer that can resolve your divorce quickly, saving you time and money.
Call 631-923-1910 for a Free Consultation and Case Evaluation.

At one of the hardest and most stressful times of my life, it was so comforting to have a team at Hornberger and Verbitsky who ALWAYS responded in record speed to my questions, phone calls, emails or texts and who I felt really cared about helping me through this difficult time. It was a long few years and I am grateful to all of you. Thank you so much Rob, AnneMarie, Christine, Patty, Joan and Lawrence. Your guidance, professionalism and expertise is appreciated beyond measure.

I would give 6 stars if I could. I can’t say enough good things about Robert and his firm. We were in a situation for over 2 years and I could have never made it through without Robert’s experience and knowledge. He guided me through tough times when needed and his expertise could “read” the situation and make the next best move for me. He was tough when he needed to be tough (thankfully) and at the same time guided me through the process to make me feel comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. I would not want to go through this process without Robert and his team having my back. he helped move the case along and not waste any time or money. One last time, I 100% endorse Robert and his expertise.

AnneMarie of Hornberger Verbitsky handled my uncontested divorce. She went above and beyond to make sure I understood all of my options and the way the process would work. She was thorough, quick and easy to communicate with and answered all my questions. AnneMarie made a very difficult time a little bit easier. I would recommend their services to anyone seeking an uncontested divorce.
