When a family case is stuck
Some cases do not move. The motions keep coming, the parents keep escalating, and the children are caught in the middle. Usually the legal issue is not the real problem.
Jeannemarie Massetti spent 30 years inside New York's family and matrimonial courts, including 28 years as a Court Evaluator for the Suffolk County Supreme Court. She finds what is actually driving the conflict, steadies the family, and gives everyone a clear path forward.
It may be time to call when:
A client is consuming more of the attorney's time than the legal issues.
The parents keep escalating, and every week brings a new crisis.
The children are caught in the middle.
Parenting time is breaking down.
Communication between the parents has collapsed.
"Her ability to remain neutral while guiding parents toward healthier communication is exceptional."
