In the most unfortunate and painful circumstances, Eric Broder (and his entire firm, from receptionists to paralegals to partners) did an amazing job-not only in securing a great settlement, but (as or more importantly) was incredibly patient, sensitive, and understanding of intense emotions and the big picture throughout the entire process. Beyond competent and honorable, Eric also always responded back ASAP-no matter how busy.  A very close friend-an attorney whose opinion I value very much-recommended Eric, and many people I meet who hear his name have only the highest level of respect and honor associated with his name and his firm.  While one hopes his services are never needed, if they ever should be, you will be in the best hands!

Attorney Broder handled my case professionally, with understanding and to a desirable outcome. Through a very difficult time, Attorney Broder’s experience, knowledge and advice were a mitigating and reassuring factor. His knowledge of the divorce process and skilled negotiating were trumped only by his concern for the children involved, invaluable to say the least. Respected by both sides of the table, Attorney Broder was highly recommended to me by several fellow lawyers as well as by individuals who he had represented – I similarly endorse him without hesitation.

Eric Broder and his firm provided exceptional legal service. Eric is honorable, highly compassionate, helpful, and was extremely attentive. I was dealing with a highly complicated, gut-wrenching divorce that involved custody of a special needs child. Eric was quick to respond to my inquiries and provided multiple options and solid advice. Eric and his team did not allow me to get bullied by the process and…found every cent that was obligated to my children. He went above and beyond to find finances that my former husband had attempted to hide during the process. He is compassionate, strong, and well respected by judges, clerks, and counsel. Eric Broder is fair with his billing. Eric is a skilled attorney that fights hard to get results for his clients, with many years of experience and an excellent reputation. I was extremely impressed with his ability to recall the smallest details of my case and I always felt that his interest in my personal situation was sincere. Eric is a family man with a passion for justice. He is the example of what every attorney should be. On the day of my divorce, my ex-husband commented that he wished Eric was his attorney… Highly recommended.

Hi Eric, I just wanted you to know that today went so well and you’ve got a real gem with Jaime—she was truly amazing—sharp, professional, kind and has a real depth that I appreciated very much. It was a full courtroom and all went very smoothly. I thank you again.

The minute I met Eric and his team I knew I didn’t have to worry about one part of my divorce process. Eric is respected in his field and his reputation follows him to the negotiation table and through the courtroom where you sense he’s highly regarded by both the judges and other attorneys. He is a gentleman and I was proud to have him represent me.  At the same time, I knew if things got tough, he would fight for me.  Eric tells it like it is and saves you time and angst. He is practical and experienced in regards to your finances, to your spouse’s personality, and most importantly, to your children’s well being. You can trust you are represented by the most respected firm in Fairfield County and I will forever be grateful.

Attorney DeMattie represented me in what was a year-long custody battle against some relatively challenging odds (as a father trying to get joint custody of an infant child). Attorney DeMattie’s knowledge of the law, integrity of character and calm and disciplined demeanor made all the difference in helping me to get joint custody of my young son. Of particular significance, his intimate knowledge of Family Court resources enabled us to continue to gain ground and realize more quality time and overnights with my son despite the fact that my ex-wife and her attorney tried to use the system to drag things out (which is something that you can’t possibly appreciate until you experience the family court process). Moreover, in the world of Family Law, it makes all the difference to know that the advice and strategy you’re following is coming from someone who has a high degree of compassion and integrity. In short, Attorney DeMattie takes a uniquely personalized approach and is highly committed to the job at hand. It should come as no surprise that I highly recommend Chris!

Sarah Murray represented me in my divorce and child custody negotiations. She is fantastic in court and negotiations with the other side – smart, firm, concise, poised, and by-the-book. Her awareness of post-divorce consequences to my agreement was outstanding and so was her communication and process advising me through the ordeal. Sarah is an outstanding professional and she has a wonderful, compassionate ability to connect and still stand strong as an advocate. Her top note, I think, is her grasp of the impact of custody decisions upon the children involved. And don’t be fooled by the cover – she may be soft-spoken and polite but she carries a very big stick.

Excellent legal representation and professionals of the highest integrity. Carole Orland represented me in an extremely complicated, contentious and difficult case. They provided sound strategic advice, thorough preparation at every turn, aggressiveness when needed yet ability to see opportunities for compromise, an accurate read of situations borne of experience, and expertise in complicated financial matters. They are professionals of the highest order and people whom I regard with tremendous respect.

The attorneys at Broder Orland Murray & DeMattie LLC are top notch lawyers as well as terrific people. I have worked with Carole OrlandEric BroderSarah Murray, and Chris DeMattie on a number of matters in the Connecticut Supreme and Appellate Courts. Across the board, their preparation and presentation of matrimonial cases are among the best I have ever seen. They care about their clients and, while not afraid to fight the fight, take a practical, cost sensitive approach to what is often an emotionally driven experience. I cannot recommend them more highly!

Eric was the first and only attorney I met with when I embarked on this unfortunate journey. I did not “shop around” as so many do because I instantly knew that I wanted Eric on my case. His reasonable approach was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to avoid partnering with someone that had a “win at all costs” attitude, which often results in permanent fractures in family units, not to mention long, drawn-out battles. That being said, Eric was ready to fight when it mattered. When you hire Eric, you won’t get a push-over, nor a pit-bull; you’ll get the right balance of practicality and aggressiveness. I never had to second-guess the guidance I received as it was always sound and rationale. Eric was incredibly accessible and responsive, and generous with his time. He is an astute negotiator who is highly regarded within the legal community. Above all, Eric brings integrity and empathy to the table. I can’t recommend Eric and the team at Broder Orland Murray & DeMattie LLC enough and I’ll always be grateful for the first-class service I received. You can rest assured that you are being represented by the best when you hire Broder Orland Murray & DeMattie LLC.
