Testimonials
When Carl Birman became my lawyer, it was in the immediate aftermath of an ugly divorce case that had gone badly for me. I obtained full custody of my youngest child and the other children came back into my life. I got my family back and I can’t thank Carl enough for not giving up and for all his hard work over a two-year period. He is a true compassionate fighter. He also understands what fathers go through in the family court system.
Kevin D.
My wife and I have been working on a Child Custody Case with Carl for some time now. Carl is a straight shooter and has the knowledge as well as the ability to do what needs to be done when it comes to this or any Court case or trial.
Carl is very passionate about what he does, how well he does it, and truly has a heart, and it certainly shows when we speak either in person or over the phone.
Former Client
When I retained Carl Birman to handle my family court matter, my family was in crisis. My son had been kidnapped and abducted across the country by his mother.
I was desperate and in complete despair. Thanks to Carl’s determined advocacy, this nightmare was turned around. I went from not being able to see my son at all and being constantly investigated by Child Protective Services, to gaining exclusive custody of my precious son.
