Hecht Family Law was founded to help clients who are going through some of life’s toughest times. Attorney Ed Hecht brings an understanding of what it’s like to be in his clients’ shoes because he’s also been through a divorce with children, pays child support, and has dealt with alimony and child custody. As a loving, devoted father to two children, he understands the sensitivities involved in helping people who need to be able to co-parent for years after their marriage ends.

The entire Hecht Family Law team inherently understands the necessity of being a caring, expert advocate for others going through this painful process. All clients receive our passionate commitment, dedicated patience in helping them understand the big picture as well as the intricacies, and enthusiastic advocacy during all phases of their cases.
