Mr. Foster’s failure to meet all the statutory requirements of my divorce open-court settlement cost me tens of thousands of dollars I paid her in the settlement that was considered marital money and not credited in the final outcome, and it drained my cash. I had closed my law practice and building business in 2002, and found myself between a hard place and a rock. His negligence was a catalyst to my having to file bankruptcy. See all of Tarone v. Tarone, 25 A.D.3d 779 (N.Y. App. Div. 2006), View More

Q. Please provide any additional comments about this lawyer
Mr. Foster's lack of attention to details, changed the course of my life. Due to his mishandling of the stipulation of settlement, my divorce went on for several years and led me into bankruptcy. Let the truth be known that choosing Mr. Foster was unequivocally the worst decision I could have made for a divorce lawyer -- and I am a lawyer! I should never have trusted him with my rights and my security. I am a lawyer, and you can contact me on my website contact form at TaroneEsq.com
