I have hired Paula multiple times to help me out with various issues pertaining to my divorce/child support and other various parenting issues I've had to deal with. Paula has helped me through some extremely stressful times and her advice and counsel has always been excellent. She has always fought for me and never led me wrong. I highly recommend her and her team.

I hired Paula to represent me for my restraining order, divorce and custody battle. She truly is very efficient and so experienced. The whole process was very long but I never felt as Paula was not looking out for me. She was the voice that I never knew I had. There were many days where I lost hope but in the end she made sure I got what was right for me. She helped me grow and she provided me the assistance I needed. Not only was she able to defend me from an unjust accusation, her calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most.

I am proud to be a Paula's client and will continue to retain her for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands.

Paula Menar was incredible! I had a temporary restraining order and the judge advised me to seek counsel when my ex asked for an extension to get a lawyer. Paula was referred to me by a friend. She was an absolute shark in the courtroom! My ex is a very charismatic person and a pathological liar. Like most pathological liars he is very convincing. So many times before when I tried to bring up things that he had done no one believed me. Paula caught him in lie after lie. She was so skillful at what she does that not only did she catch him in his lies she had him admit to the lies without him even realizing what he was doing! He was revealed for the controlling, abusive, narcissist that he is. The things I had to talk about were painful and embarrassing but Paula helped me through my time on the stand with a great amount of compassion while remaining professional. That is a hard balance to achieve but she nailed it. My final restraining order was granted. My life in the past 10 months since our court date has improved beyond belief. I’m not getting texts every 30 seconds. I’m not waking up to find him in my house even though the doors were locked. I have had no communication from him whatsoever. I never imagined life could be this peaceful, this joyful, this stress-free. I don’t think I could have gotten to this point without Paula as my lawyer in the courtroom. She helped change my life for the better. I strongly recommend Menar & Menar.

Paula represented me in my divorce case. In the beginning, I had hired another attorney as he made me believe that the divorce case in NJ is very simple. After dealing with him and coming to know the judiciary system, I realized that most of attorneys here are clueless when the case goes to trial. Most of the attorney are just to forward the documents back and forth and have you sign it, they hope that both the parties agree and case is closed. However Paula is the best, she is an all-rounder that can maneuver the case in either situation. She will try her best to get the case settle before going to trial in your favor, at the same time, she is fearless to make the case in trial room too. She is very adaptable and comes across as a friendly and family-oriented person. This helps you, as a client, since you go through both the emotional and financial trauma during the divorce process. She along with her partner, provide clients the backup and second opinion needed in the complex situation. I was involved in the fraudulent marriage situation that was complicated, involving false domestic violence and other aspect of the divorce and she delivered it for me. She is the best!

This lawyer exceeded my expectations. I've gone through a long custody battle prior to hiring Raul. We went into court today with little expectation and he hit it out of the park. I couldn't be more grateful or happier with the way the case turned out. I would not hesitate to hire Raul in the future.
