When I first retained David for a legal separation, he explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand. Family and divorce law is very confusing and without a good lawyer I was going to be thrown to the wolves. He was very responsive to me whenever I had questions or needed clarification on the legal jargon even outside of our meetings.

He was pivotal in me gaining custody of my son which was of extreme importance to me. We were able to work out a settlement that was considerably more equitable than originally sought despite the opposition attempting to run the case out of money. David is extremely knowledgeable in the law and has even written a book to answer many of the frequently asked questions.

His office staff are excellent as well and kept me informed of meetings, court appearance dates, paperwork needing attention, etc. If you are seeking help with a divorce, separation, child custody of pre-nup, reach out to David. I guarantee you that you won’t regret it.

As a state-certified domestic violence advocate, I cannot stress the importance of choosing an excellent attorney. For all of you out there who know that you’re dealing with a difficult ex, you absolutely need a lawyer like David Bliven as your ally.

David is hands down one of the best lawyers I’ve dealt with in my own high-conflict divorce and post-judgment nightmare now entering its seventh year in the legal system. He came highly recommended from a trusted lawyer and friend, who said he was the best for dealing with difficult situations like mine, involving an ex set on destruction at all costs.

David has an encyclopedic mind for the law, and this, combined with his talent for remaining calm when dealing with antagonistic people in court, is a tremendous benefit. He knows not to “take the bait” and to remain always respectful, rather than engage in mindless battle, a common technique used by less professional attorneys trying to run up their own bills.

David’s professional attitude is impressive not only to a judge, but his no-nonsense manner also saves his clients money. He is extremely organized and responsive, as is his staff. His documentation is impeccable, and his paralegals always make sure to follow-up with any questions I might have promptly.

I would highly recommend David Bliven to anyone in need of a top attorney with integrity, and especially one who specializes in handling difficult people.

Thank you so much David for all your help. David is a great lawyer that really cares about what is best for his client. He takes the time to listen to you and always answers all my questions. He is a person that will fight for you, that cares that you get what is best for you. I wished I had met you before for my divorce. I didn’t have a good experience with my divorce lawyer but with David everything was a huge difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to always call him in case that I would need him in the future. Thank you for your hard work!

I hired David after spending months working with another lawyer who was incompetent at best. However, David did an excellent job of resolving the divorce with professionalism. He is knowledgeable and experienced and is able to clearly explain the law and what to expect and to guide you in making decisions. Truly a professional in a very difficult area of practice.

I appreciated the courteous and compassionate manner in which Mr. Bliven's staff treated me when I called or visited his office. David Bliven clearly understands Divorce and Family law, cc’d me on all correspondence, and was always prepared for court. David Bliven understood the critical issues that have to be addressed in a divorce involving children with disabilities. I highly recommend and thank him.

When I thought there was no hope for me to receive a fair shot in family court, attorney David Bliven saved the day. In my first consultation, attorney David Bliven created a strategy and executed to perfection. Everything he told me he could do for my custody case he accomplished. He was very knowledgeable and straight to the point at our court appearances. Attorney David Bliven did such a great job in my custody case, I hired him for my child support case which he also created a strategy and executed to perfection. I recommend attorney David Bliven to anyone seeking top notch legal advise and service.
