Wayne Effron speaks with precision while his honesty is refreshing. Wayne's direct clarity splices through fluff while fearless honesty enables the client to focus on strategy rather than the pain one feels from divorce. He is an experienced pilot flying through rough weather. My advice to clients is to accept Wayne's navigating skills, let go, and turn the process over to his perfectionism. A client's ex-spouse might find Wayne agonizing.

Mr. Effron did a very thorough and amiable job on my divorce case. He was very thoughtful throughout the process and made himself available when needed. The actual Divorce Decree is considered, by my peers, to be very generous. His knowledge of all aspects was as clear to me, as it seemed to be to the Judge. The Judge granted the divorce after 10 minutes due to the level of competency, on Mr. Effron's behalf. I think the best compliment came from my ex-husband who said, "I think that you had the better lawyer!

Mr. Effron represented me in two cases. The first was my divorce after a broken down marriage that had lasted 35 years. Needless to say I was very apprehensive about the outcome, but Mr. Effron handled the testimony that my wife gave with just the right measure of tact and skill. The second case was very involved, bringing my mother-in-law, an elderly lady in a nursing home, into the divorce case.
