When my marriage ended, the situation was complicated by jointly owned intellectual property and a small business we had built together. I needed an attorney with deep expertise in both family law and the nuances of intellectual property. Finding Charles Meyer was a stroke of luck. With nearly four decades of experience, he navigated the emotional and legal complexities with a steady hand. His background in both litigation and trademark law was invaluable; he understood that our business trademarks were not just assets but part of our legacy, and he structured a settlement that protected my interests and future rights. Mr. Meyer’s negotiation skills, honed over 30 years at Hofstein Meyer Rocco Finger & Weiner, were exceptional. He was always prepared, professional, and genuinely cared about achieving a fair outcome without unnecessary courtroom drama. His recognition in family law is well-deserved. He didn't just handle a case; he provided strategic counsel during one of the most difficult periods of my life, securing a resolution that allowed me to move forward with stability and peace of mind.
