Overview:
Our clients are more than simply case files. They are diverse individuals and families with specific legal needs and unique concerns. This means they need solutions that approach their legal matters with creative thinking, superior knowledge and, above all, compassion and understanding.
At Guston & Guston, we take pride in helping our New Jersey clients navigate difficult legal matters and come out on the other side with peace of mind that the legal system has worked for them. Whether they are seeking to expand their family through adoption or surrogacy, planning for the future, starting a business venture or nonprofit organization or in the beginning stages of a divorce, our clients value individual attention above all. We provide carefully developed legal strategies, while always treating our clients with the professionalism and dignity they deserve.
A Diverse Firm For Diverse Clients
Many people only associate working with a lawyer with responding to conflicts — a divorce, for example, or a contract dispute between businesses. As experienced litigators, the attorneys of Guston & Guston, LLP, have helped countless individuals and businesses in New Jersey confront legal disputes and prevail in litigation.
At the same time, we also recognize that being a good lawyer is about helping people anticipate and prevent conflicts, helping them understand the complexities of the law, and providing simple, real-world solutions to complex issues. We take this responsibility seriously because we understand that important rights are in question in any legal matter. Every day, we help our clients navigate the law, understand their rights and plan smartly for the future.
Our attorneys possess decades of collective experience in family law, estate planning law, elder law, and business and commercial law. We are also at the forefront of rapidly changing areas such as adoption and reproductive law, and have responded to changes in state and federal laws concerning same-sex marriage and other issues that affect LGBT families.
Managing partner Debra E.
