Elfant Rickett Law Firm LLC

I hired Rosa Rickett while being represented by a different attorney who didn't know how to proceed with my exceptional and unbelievable circumstances. When I hired Rosa, I had not seen my children in almost 2 years, as they were being held hostage by my husband in Saudi Arabia. My husband lured me into Saudi Arabia where he got a job on a temporary basis, proceeded to divorce me behind my back and get custody of our 3 children, through the Islamic Religious Court, as a result of which I was thrown out of the country and with my custodial rights being terminated. Once I got back to NJ, I hired a lawyer who led me through the courts into the wrong direction costing me unnecessary legal fees. Rosa, was recommended to me and she knew how to proceed right away. Rosa strategized on my behalf. She filed a Complaint of Divorce here in NJ, and an application with the court seeking to have my three children returned back to NJ. Rosa also sought to have the Saudi Arabian divorce and custody orders thrown out or not recognized by our NJ Courts. After months of Court Proceedings and a complicated trial, involving many experts and fact witnesses, Rosa had my children returned to my custody in NJ. She also had the Saudi Arabia divorce and custody orders thrown out of the court. I cannot express enough about the mountain that Rosa helped me move. She returned my children to me in Saudi. Hire Rosa, she's a strategic ethical family trial lawyer, who will always do what is in your best interests, who had my children returned to me from Saudi Arabia.

I hired Rosa to assist me with my divorce. She went above and beyond and overly exceeded my expectations. Rosa is very knowledgeable, ethical, determined, and committed. She fought for me and my rights to the very end and for that I will be forever grateful. I was always treated with respect by not only Rosa, but her very helpful assistant Melissa. All questions were answered quickly. I would highly recommend her.

After 22 years of marriage, my three children and I found ourselves emotionally and financially abandoned by our husband/father who left us for his high school sweetheart. My ex-husband had hired a shark of an attorney, who was attempting to set legal precedent by awarding us only 10% of the marital home. Initially I had chosen different council, who did not have the best interest of myself and my children and who was not willing to “battle” my husband’s attorney. Ms Rickett was recommended by a friend who is a private investigator. From our first meeting, I knew she was the right fit for us. Her concern was genuine. As a physical therapist, my legal knowledge was minimal at best. Ms. Rickett walked me through the whole arduous process, keeping me informed of all the issues, explaining the choices and options that needed to be made, researching through infinite mounds of case law, personally attending every hearing/motion/court date, and emotionally supporting us in every way. After the divorce was finalized, my ex continuously tried to re-write the final divorce agreement and filed motion after motion. Rosa again came to our rescue to uphold the agreement. I have used Ms. Rickett for two other unrelated issues recently as well. In the fall of 2012, I had to file a TRO against a friend who had become a stalker. Ms Rickett again was there through every step of the process which ended with a substantial monetary reward. Then in the winter of 2013, Ms. Rickett got a TRO against one of my children by an ex-girlfriend dropped. In summary, I have the utmost confidence in Ms. Rickett and would recommend her to my best friend for any legal issues.

Rosa Rickett was my divorce attorney and a great ally through the divorce process. From the start, her advice and management of my case assured me that she was pursuing my best interests vigorously and effectively and the results proved it! Throughout the divorce, Rosa was easy to work with, responsive and kept my case a priority. I have the highest regards for Rosa Rickett not only because she is a great attorney, but for being a person who you can trust and admire.

I was going through a difficult divorce with a Court Order that obligated me to pay for all marital expenses and an attorney who was happy to go with the flow in a relaxing manner. One day, while in a Court room on a domestic violence hearing, I saw Rosa Rickett cross-examine her client's partner in the middle of a trial that she was on. I was so impressed with Rosa's courtroom skills, knowledge and power, that I approached her in the hall way of the court house afterwards and asked her for her card. Right there and then, I knew that I had to retain Rosa to represent me. Once Rosa was my attorney, she amended my support Court Order significantly and actually was able to get me some support in return. Rosa got my husband to the point where he knew that our situation had to end and that we needed to get divorced. I highly recommend Rosa Rickett to anyone who is looking for an attorney that not only has knowledge, but who is willing to fight for their client every step of the way

I was not in a good place. My living situation had become high stressed and dangerous. I desperately needed the proper guidance and did not feel I was getting it. I had to protect myself. I needed to protect my kids. By chance, a friend had told me about Rosa. I had met with her briefly. During my consultation I knew that Rosa was on top of her game and smart like a whip! She knew all the ins and outs of divorce thoroughly and anything she may not have been certain about, she researched and had definitive answers immediately! One unfortunate day, I ended up in a serious situation. The very next day, Rosa guided me and just watching her work was extremely impressive. She is strong, confident, educated, fair, assertive and doesn't take no for an answer. I am telling you that Rosa will represent you the way you need to be represented. She'll help you every step of the way and she'll make you feel safe. Divorce is a very sad experience. No matter what you may be feeling at the time, Rosa will get you through it. She will always fight for what's fair and what's right. She will fight for her client. I know I could not have gotten through any of this without her help!

I want to start off by explaining how I found myself using Rosa Rickett to represent me in my divorce. About three years ago I needed to find an attorney to represent me in my divorce. I went on many consultations but just didn't feel that any one was suitable, trusting and someone that I can work with. I was talking to a friend of mine who recommended Rosa Rickett and who swore that Rosa was amazing and did a great job for them in their case. One week later I went into Rosa’s office and I knew right then and there she was the one for me and for my situation. Rosa made me feel comfortable, very understanding to my situation yet strong, knowledgeable and I just loved her character, personality and just knew in my heart she would do everything in her power to help me and protect me. Rosa had all the qualifications I was looking for, her dedication to my case and always made the time whether through one on one meetings or phone calls. Her knowledge and skills as an attorney were just amazing and I would highly recommend Rosa Rickett in any situation/case.

I retained Rosa Rickett to be my divorce attorney in December, 2010. For two and one half years, she was a very helpful and informed attorney. Rosa always made me feel that she would stand up for me and do everything possible to win my case. She was an aggressive and firm person when she dealt with my ex-husband's games. Rosa was knowledgeable, very detail-oriented and she was always available to speak with me on the weekends. She was always sharp with her advice. She was very understanding of my position on many issues that she dealt with in my case. You would be very fortunate to have Rosa Rickett as your divorce attorney.

Anna O. former client “Results may vary depending on your particular facts and legal circumstances.”

I was referred to Rosa Elfant Rickett to handle my divorce. I highly recommend Rosa to anyone who needs a hands on attorney who will dedicate 110% to your case. I felt 100% secure in the fact that Rosa had my best interest’s at heart, and was willing to do anything in her power to make sure that I was being taken care of. She always made it a point to make sure that she guided me along the right course of action, and made sure that I was aware of ALL my options…Since this was my first experience with obtaining a lawyer I felt very overwhelmed and scared. Rosa was sensitive to my situation and I feel that she truly cared. So in closing, if you need a strong and determined attorney who is not afraid to be tough, Rosa will be perfect! Thank you so much for all your help, I truly appreciate your professionalism and the graciousness of the staff at the Elfant Rickett Law Firm.

My daughter is epileptic and mentally retarded. She cannot speak and has difficulty moving around on her own. She was in a school specialized for the handicapped children until the members of the district I live in decided she should attend a regular high school as a means to save money. My daughter was about to be placed in a school that not only posed a hazard to her safety, but also did not meet her needs. While in that school, her character changed from a happy child to that of a child that was distant, depressed and reserved. With the help of Rosa Elfant Rickett, Esquire, not only has my daughter been transferred to the best school in the area for her needs, but her overall disposition had greatly improved. Every day, she shows us how much she learns and has the biggest smile on her face at all times. Rosa fought for my child when others tried to take advantage of her shortcomings. She was the person who taught me to pay attention and carefully read through the IEP’s as a way of assisting in the legal battle. We are eternally grateful for the battles Rosa fought and won.

Adelfa B. former client “Results may vary depending on your particular facts and legal circumstances.”

Rosa is an amazing lawyer and an amazing person. I don't think I would have legally nor emotionally gotten through my divorce without her. She was available at all times - this includes answering my ranting text messages after my ex was causing more grief. She always knew the right things to say and guide me through the whole process so nothing was a surprise. I called her my "pitbull." She was my guard, my guide... my friend. In what seemed like a time where I was tumbling through space, she provided a ground for me to stand on. I highly recommend Rosa.

Leslie W. former client “Results may vary depending on your particular facts and legal circumstances.”

If you are looking for a lawyer who knows the law and will fight for your rights, then Rosa Rickett is the right lawyer for you. Mrs. Rickett was defending me and representing my interests, during a very difficult and time consuming divorce that I've been going through for about a year and a half. She was very professional in how she handled my case and didn't make decisions for me, but explained how the choices I made would affect me and my situation that gave me the opportunity to make my own decisions. My attorney tried to do everything possible for my divorce to keep moving so that my children and I could move on with our lives. I definitely felt like Rosa was on my side, living my case with me and fighting for my cause. I recommend seeing this attorney, because you will be in good hands during a very difficult experience. At the end of a divorce like mine, I am certain the results would not have been nearly as favorable if I didn't have Rosa on my side.
