Law Office of Dennis R. Vetrano, Jr., LLC

I don’t even have the words to explain how amazing Kristen and Erika are. I came dangerously close to representing myself in my divorce because I was under the impression everything would go smoothly. When I became concerned I reached out to Kristen and it was the best decision that I have ever made. She immediately saw that I was being taken advantage of and her advice, guidance and understanding have done nothing short of save my life. She was able to not only help me, she got me an outcome that I didn’t think was possible. Her knowledge of the law is phenomenal and at every turn she was able to reassure me that I should be taking my time and doing what is right for myself and my kids. She and Erika are such an amazing team. I would love to say that the things I already mentioned were the best aspects of who they are and what they did for me, but I can’t. The patience and compassion that they showed me each and every time that I lost my mind and couldn’t decide if I was doing the right thing was invaluable. Both of them probably wanted to kill me on numerous occasions but all they did was calm me down and give me perspective. Divorce is hard as hell and can get really messy, even when it’s not. I wouldn’t wish the experience on anyone but if you are reading this because that is where you are at, don’t look anywhere else. I will never be able to appropriately express my gratitude to these two women. Nothing I can ever say will explain how I feel about what they did for me. As a man I expected to be on the wrong end, Kristen and Erika made sure that I wasn’t. There is nobody better.

Going through a custody and child support case for the first time, (and last) walking into this firm was one of the most heartbreaking moments of my life. This was never a decision I seen myself making after my children were born. Upon first walking into the building the receptionist is one of the friendliest people on the planet. She greets you like she has known you her entire life.
I met with Kristen who was not only welcoming, down to earth, knowledgeable and communicated every step of the process. I always had many questions and I’d always receive an answer in a timely manner. Kristens paralegal Erika would always respond if Kristen was not able to, which to me helped lessen many stressors. I would personally, highly recommend this firm if you’re ever going though the difficulties of child custody or support. Their professionalism yet compassion is something I will remember and respect.
Thank you Kristen.

Before I hired Vetrano, I had another attorney, and nothing was moving. I hired Vetrano and in that first week of having them as my attorney, I knew I was in the right place. My divorce went from moving at a snail's pace to suddenly we were on a jet plane. They just took over and things just started moving, rapidly. Kristin Farris went above and beyond for me, she never talked to me like she heard it 1000 times; and she called me after hours to make sure I knew what was happening. She really cares about what she's doing, and she was so good in court when we ended up there, and more important she was amazing as a human. I highly recommend this firm and Kristin was just the absolute best attorney to work with. Just hire them.

I am extremely thankful for having received the best representation from my attorney Kristen D. Farris for a temporary order of protection case against my soon to be ex-husband. Everything went so smooth with her amazing expertise and professionalism. In the court, she took charge right away and everything was just so well. I was so relieved! The outcome of the case was perfect and the case settled without any issues. I had no chance to stress! Finally, the office staff was so friendly and the communication, which was mostly through e-mail, was perfect. I am looking forward to working with Kristen with the next steps of getting a divorce. God answered my prayer when I asked for a great attorney :) I was so nervous but thankfully everything went so well!!!

When I first met Kristen I was at the end of my rope. I had spent 29 years of my life loving my husband, advocating for my children, and lost the best of who I am. I was losing hope. Kristen is exactly what I needed. She communicates clearly and thoroughly. She gave me tangible directions and concrete actions. She is a fierce advocate. I was heard, validated, and respected. She encouraged me to be who I really am.

I am extremely thankful for the legal representation I received from the law office of Dennis Vetrano .My attorney Kristen Farris was very compassionate and professional throughout my divorce process and helped me achieve a favorable outcome. The office staff and paralegals were very polite and kept me informed of what was happening with my divorce every step of the way. I highly recommend their law Firm.

Kristen Farris did an Outstanding job representing me when I needed to make a detrimental change to my existing Child Custody Order in Family Court, which involved a lot time pressing and sensitive issues. I had used Kristen a couple of years ago when she handled my divorce case that ended with an outcome that far exceeded my expectations, so it was imperative for me to have Kristen for a second time as my legal representation.

Kristen was not only extremely knowledgeable, but was highly sensitive and conscientious to all my concerns. Kristen and Erika (Kristen’s paralegal) were always on top of everything. Communication was excellent, as they would make it a point to check in with me to make sure I knew what was happening at all times, explained everything to me in detail and quickly answered any questions I had. It was tremendously assuring and comforting to know I had two people that I could absolutely count on and trust in the most difficult and stressful situation.

There was not a time that my child’s best interest wasn’t a main priority for Kristen. She is highly experienced and will do everything to advocate your case while ensuring to leave no stone unturned, which is immensely important and vital in any child custody case. This meant the world to me to know that I had someone looking out for my child the same way I was. Kristen truly cares and is so dedicated to each case and takes every case on as if it were her own. Kristen’s knowledge combined with her tenacious, yet compassionate personality is what you need when going through such difficult and uncertain legal situations in your life, especially when it involves your child. Kristen undoubtedly has the highest level of expertise to handle the most convoluted cases. In the end, Kristen delivered a stellar outcome of my custody case, one that left me with tears of happiness and gratitude. I honestly don’t know what I would do without her by my side.

Choosing the right lawyer to look out for the best interest of your child is something I do not take lightly.
There is no one else I would ever want to represent me than Kristen Farris and her paralegal Erika. They make a Fantastic Team that is like no other. They are extremely responsive, empathetic, and they will go above and beyond measure with their knowledge to fight for you and devote their time to your case while guiding you through every step of the process. I know I am in the best of hands with Kristen and Erika. Having them on your side gives you such peace of mind because you know they are going to do everything in their power to help you. They are truly a gift when going through tough legal matters and I am eternally grateful for their service. I would highly recommend Kristen Farris to anyone looking for the Best Attorney to represent you through what is one of the hardest experiences of your life.

I literally cannot thank Kristen Farris enough for the way she represented me in court. She has a tenacious personality in court, and will not settle for an outcome less than her expected goal. It was a great feeling to finally have an attorney defending my rights effectively. I was very proud to have her represent me in court. You can tell the vast experience she has in court by the tone of respect directed at her by the judge and the opposing attorney. Kristen is well respected in the courtroom.
Together with her fantastic paralegal team, Stacy, Andrea, and Erika, they will go above and beyond conducting investigative research, and keeping you well informed through phone calls, and emails. Their legal knowledge is very extensive, and impressive.
Because of the positive outcome of my court case, this will be a life changing event for me!
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

I am so happy to have had Kristen to represent me during my recent divorce. She went above above and beyond with her support and expertise in the matter. Although the journey of dealing with my divorce itself had its stressful times, Kristen helped me to stay strong and weather the storm. I also really appreciated the professional and courteous efforts from Kristen’s legal team. I am also thankful for Erika who was of great help and continued to maintain communication throughout the divorce. Thank You Again!!!!

Going through a divorce can be scary,messy and confusing. Choosing a lawyer to represent you is one of the most important decisions you will make. Dennis Ventrano law firm was absolutely amazing. From start to finish. They explained everything in a way I could understand cause let’s be honest the law can be confusing.
They took my feelings into consideration any questions or concerns they addressed right away.
Top notch law firm . Everyone who works there is very friendly. I would recommend them over and over. They took a really bad situation and made it as smooth as possible. Great job!

Highly recommended. Kristen Ferris is by far the best Family Court lawyer in New York State. After dealing with nonsense for 10+ years, Kristen fought for me to get full custody of my children, which is unheard of for the father to get custody in New York State.

Mr. Vetrano and his team have done an excellent job representing me in a very difficult divorce. Throughout the process, I have worked with numerous members of his office, all have been extremely helpful, patient and understanding- especially Stacy. They are extremely knowledgeable and able to answer any questions I have had. Communication is also excellent. I am always copied on communication with the court and opposing counsel. Knowing where I am in the process has relieved a lot of stress. I highly recommend them especially if you foresee your case being complex.

I used Dennis R. Vetrano, JR. for a settlement agreement and I highly recommend their services. The staff is extremely honest and reliable. The follow up and communication was excellent. I have used lawyers before and they don’t compare with the professionalism of Dennis R. Vetrano JR. I highly recommend this law firm for all your divorce and family law. Excellent.

Kristen Farris and all of the wonderful people at the Law Office of Dennis R. Vetrano, Jr. were absolutely amazing. They worked with me through trying times and difficult circumstances. Their compassion, knowledge and fortitude always reassured me that not only did I have a great lawyer in Kristen Farris to fight for me, but that there was an entire team backing her up as well. I am so grateful for all of the hard work and dedication of the entire firm. I would recommend this firm, and Kristen specifically, to anyone finding themselves in the difficult position of filing for divorce or fighting for custody. They will do their best on your behalf.

Tough, gracious, generous, and committed describe Kristen’s qualities as my attorney. And much thanks to the paralegal team as well. Their combined experience provided prompt support whenever I had any questions and helped talk me through my situation and to provide clarity. I can’t thank Kristen and her team enough for the all hard work and kindness through the process.

My experience with everyone in Dennis' Law firm has been wonderful. Kristen handled my divorce (she negotiated everything that I wanted) and now she is handling some post-divorce matters. She and her team have done a great job of keeping me informed of what is going on throughout the process. Erika always answers my emails or calls right away, and remembers the details of my case as well as personal details, so that I feel like more than just another case. Stacy, one of their paralegals, is extremely knowledgeable and able to answer my questions, which saves time and money. Kristen is always available to speak to if I need her, tries to make our calls as brief as possible so I can get the information I need in a timely fashion, and does extremely through work. She and her team do their best to fight the best fight for you that they can, while letting you know realistically, what you might expect as an outcome. I appreciate their candor as I know there is a lot of gray area in the law. I have truly been impressed and happy with the services I have received and if I needed to hire someone in their area of expertise in the future, I would not hesitate to do so. Highly recommend!!!

I will recommend Kristen Ferris to any of my brothers and sisters in the Armed Forces dealing with New York Family Law related matters. As soon as I retained her for representation, she quickly took control of a highly volatile, contested support modification action and ensured that I was treated fairly by the court. Because of her, my ex and I were able to come to an acceptable, mutual agreement due to the fact that Kristen understands New York Family Law and the parameters of appropriate support. She was able to help me while I am serving in a foreign country on the other side of the world. Her paralegal team is also excellent and responsive. Ms. Ferris is an absolutely outstanding attorney and I will definitely retain her services again for future issues.

I recommend Kristen Ferris for her professionalism and responsiveness to my unique case as a diplomat. Ms. Ferris and her team were in constant communication with me and made sure that they adequately reached my case and applied the appropriate strategy that would result in a successful out come.
For excellent quality representation when it comes to retaining an attorney that understands New York Family Court Laws and parameters, contact Ms. Kristen Ferris for peace of mind and good value for money.

Divorce is an extremely difficult life event. It will challenge you in every way imaginable. Kristen and Erika guided me through this entire process. They settled me when I needed it and pushed me when that had to happen as well. Having a team that you can rely on, knowing they will get the job done, is everything you can ask for. I would like to thank you both again. I will be sure to recommend you to everyone.
