Brotherton Law Firm - Watertown, New York

Shauna T.

Justin Brotherton is incredible. If i could give him more than 5 stars I would. My husband and I hired Justin in April 2021 after his custody case was relinquished from Pennsylvania to New York. Our case was complex, messy, and very stressful. We had just moved to the area and really didn't know anyone before my step son was taken off his school playground by his mother despite an order of protection. He fought for my husband, guided us in the right direction and after a 5 year custody battle (5 day custody trial) Justin helped my husband get Sole custody. We are forever grateful he took on our case and will recommend him to anyone needing a family law attorney.

Sorry, we are a bit confused about how to best help this dear family.

Justin tells me his own sister is getting a divorce - when in reality it appears she is seemingly just going through cycles of influence from her dear mother. It may be just dreams, flippant thoughts, or ideas - all destined to cause harm to this very good family.

But, our God is faithful and wants to bless, protect, and mend all broken relationships.

May God help us to humble ourselves, pray, seek His face, and look to Him to accept His divine undeserving Grace.

We love and forgive you all.
Most Respectfully,
The Glick Family

They were very detailed while helping me out. My Divorce ended up getting stalled and ultimately working things out for Better or Worst. But even with my back and forth due to circumstantial changes, they were still willing to work with me.

Brotherton Law Firm was very professional and fast to respond to any questions during my court cases. Justin explained everything in lay terms for me to understand prior to each court hearing. He was straight and to the point with me which I loved. I don't have anything negative to say, my 7 month experience was nothing but the best. Highly recommended 👍👍👍👍👍

An attorney who negotiates in bad faith and has no interest in mind except that of himself. If you want to screw your partner he is the attorney for you.
Edit:
Mr. Brotherton provided a settlement proposal 1 week after the judge told him to, showed up to court late, and stated 19 days wasn't enough time for him to answer an 11 item reply with minor details. If I acted that way I'd be in hot water, yet he is allowed to be that unprofessional.
Edit:
54 days have gone by between the offer where he asked for the house, and the counter where I agreed to give the house, and he asks the judge for a continuance because he wants an appraisal. An appraisal for a piece of property his client is receiving. Best lawyer if you want your divorce to take forever, absolutely forever.

I mean we still had to pay his ex wife money for child support but we are very happy with The amount the money we had to pay her end of the court! Great result! Thank you again and If anybody wants to hire him we would highly recommend him! The case was for child support! This lawyer rock! Very honesty! And fought for my husband for his best interest! We will be hiring him again in the future if we need him! And the price was VERY reasonable!!!!! 5 stars!!!

We hired Brotherton law firm for a legal proceeding in family court. His staff was on top of the required paperwork and he made sure court dates and times fit our schedule. Prices were very fair and nothing was “dragged on “like in many law practices. I felt by the way he interacted w the courts that he had a good relationship with the judges and they valued his arguments. Would strongly recommend.

Quick to respond to emails and easy to set up appointments to either talk over the phone or meet at office. Knowledgeable and has a way of making sure you understand what is going on and what your options are. Does not pressure you to make choices are uncomfortable with and is honest/prepared. Has been an absolute blessing for myself and my family.
