He answered all of my questions, responded to all my emails and kept me up to date each step of the way. I knew about every conversation or interaction that involved my case.

“Although I have not met with Mr. Bliven yet. I contacted his office on the Friday of a Holiday Weekend. His office's response was immediate and I was treated with respect as if I was already a client. His staff took the time to email me immediately and when I called I was given an appointment that accommodates my schedule. Custody matters are very sensitive and clients can be emotional. It was a relief to speak with someone who was not only professional and courtesy, but also showed genuine concern. I look forward to my consultation with Mr. Bliven.”
“Mr. Bliven was knowledgeable, informative, and an incredible strategist. He used all of my legal rights to defend me in my case and was extremely professional to work with.

David consulted with me on all motions before revealing them to the court or to any other parties. For this I thank him and am grateful for his diligence in representation.”
“Mr. Bliven represented me in a child support case. I was very pleased with the services provided by Mr. Bliven. He is professional, courteous, and knows his stuff! I am completely gratified with the outcome of my case. Thanks to Mr. Bliven’s knowledge of family law. Mr. Bliven kept me up to date on all matters pertaining to my case and his billing is fair and accurate for the work he puts into the case. I would certainly recommend him to anyone that is seeking a topnotch lawyer in the area family court.”
“Mr. Bliven came very highly recommended to me by a friend who used to practice family law and had transitioned into other areas of legal I was not disappointed. Mr. Bliven was thoroughly knowledgeable and highly attentive as he helped me smoothly resolve complex child support matters involving international issues of competing jurisdictions. Having had a number of attorneys in the course of my divorce and child custody/support matters over the last 18 years, I believe I am experienced to know that Mr. Bliven is a top family law expert.”
“Although I subscribe to a legal plan through my union (I'm a teacher), I decided to retain Mr. Bliven based on our initial consultation. He seemed much better versed than the less expensive "plan" attorney I spoke to in the child support matter I brought to him. Mr. Bliven scanned the paperwork I brought with me to the consultation and immediately developed a strategy using various points of law. Mr. Bliven kept in constant contact with me and "cc'd" me on all correspondence he and my ex-wife's attorney had via email or hard-copy. Mr. Bliven's courtroom demeanor was just as I had hoped it would be; vocal and on point. Ultimately, my ex-wife and I reached a fair compromise that did not follow the default percentages NY State dictates. I would definitely retain again should the need arise.”
“During a time, when it seemed as my life was about to fall apart, Mr. Bliven was there to make sure I was protected. Mr. Bliven was there to make sure every "T" was crossed and every “I" was dotted. He made sure I was entitled to my fair share. When children are involved in a divorce, I wanted to make sure they were taken care of for the foreseeable future. Mr. Bliven made it his duty to fight for me when he felt I deserved more retribution. He fought tooth and nail for the needs of my children as well as for me. During a time when things looked bleak, Mr. Bliven made sure my legal and financial needs are taken care of. When beginning this venture, I was scared that I would walk off of this with only my "shirt", but Mr. Bliven made it his job to make sure I was able to resume my life without looking back. I want to thank Mr. Bliven and I would recommend him to anyone who is and is thinking about filing for a divorce.”
“Navigating family court for personal reasons can be quite intimidating, even for folks who have interfaced with court officers and judges for professional purposes. That said, Bliven was nothing short of extremely knowledgeable, courteous and very attuned with the emotional experience that comes with the process. I highly recommend Bliven if you are seeking consultation and representation with a child support and/or custody case!”
“BEST ATTORNEY for high-conflict divorce / domestic violence / post-judgment – 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.
