Mr. Kaplan (David M. Kaplan Esquire) is a whole-some honest man, he is dedicated to his job and it truly shows. He picked up my Case the same day we met. He carefully explained the process and was completely supportive throughout the whole situation. He got my case dismissed the very same day it went to trial. The pricing is very affordable for whoever is seeking legal advice or legal representation. I highly recommend this Law firm to all seeking immediate representation.

Mr. Kaplan is currently representing a family member that needed legal help. He responded quickly and answered all of our questions. He’s very thorough and reassuring. Our case is not yet concluded but we feel confident he will accomplish the goal/objective.

I hired David Kaplan for my custody case of 2 children against their deadbeat father who abandoned them 4 years ago. He has been so helpful with legal advice and guiding me through these court hearings. Our time is almost here to be in front of a judge and I couldn't be more confident then ever! His confidence and hard work really shows! I was so nervous knowing how my childrens father has his ways with words and lies but with David by my side I feel like my childrens father will get what he deserves!

Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a lawyer. This guy is guaranteed to be quick to take your money and extremely slow to render adequate service. I learned more about how gaining custody of my children worked by searching on Google than I did from this joke of a lawyer Mr. Kaplin. He will take ever one of your calls up until he gets your money. Once you have paid, expect to get his voicemail everytime you without ever recieving a response. I wish I never hired him!

What can I say about David Kaplan other that he was the best lawyer I have ever came across. I had so many doubts about my case but he made all things possible. Money well spent. Now I can see my daughter a possibility that I taught would never happen. Thank you Mr.Kaplan!!! For anyone looking for help please reach out to David Kaplan you will not regret it.

I've lived in NE Philly just about my whole life and so when I visit a lawyer across from roosevelt mall slightly cheaper to a bunch of people downtown obviously I was skeptical as I'm sure any Philly native might be. At the end of the day Mr. Kaplan took me in 2 hours before he closed on a holiday and was nice and very forward. He asked me the right questions, told me when he would call after he was done reviewing my case, told me what to wear and even knew the judge. He called at the time said told me he felt we had a strong case and how we would go about it. At the end of the day I never had to see the judge. He had it dropped after putting in great effort to convice my ex who is notoriously difficult to deal with to do so. He could see right through her and her family she had brought with her and even gave me advice about a separate issue which he was not required to do. And on top of it all I saved over $1000 minimum. Really couldn't ask for much more.

I highly recommend David Kaplan I found him thru google search and liked his reviews. I hired David for custody and child support cases we just had the support case and David had it cut by half it may not sound like much but if you add it up he just saved me over $28.000 yes he saved me over twenty eight thousand dollars. I felt that Philadelphia family court was agents me because I’m a man but David Kaplan made me feel equal. Next up is the custody case so I’ll let you know how that works out. Again 5 stars David knows his stuff And is very professional

Great lawyer, very professional he made it possible for me to see my kids sooner than I thought it could be possible, even though the 2nd hearing was 7 month away from today’s date. I would highly recommend Mr. Kaplan to any one with family legal issues. He always kept me informed throughout the whole process and also returned all my phone calls. Mr. Kaplan always looked forward to satisfying his client (Me) with my goal.

Seven month later, and my lawyer did it again. Mr. Kaplan got me what I was looking for. He made it possible for me to have shared physical, and legal custody. Kaplan was very professional, and was looking forward to reach my goal, at all the time. Kaplan takes his job seriously as if it was himself going through that situation. Also, he proved to have a very vast knowledge about custody cases, his performance was brilliant. I believe if anybody ever needs a family lawyer, Mr. Kaplan is the right person to go to.

Mr. Kaplan is first off one of the realest down to earth lawyers with confident in this field. From his professional appearance to his lets get to business attitude. I had the pleasure of hiring him to fight for custody of my 2 children, and he did just that fought for me to the very end even though they say men don't get good results in the family court system but when that judge ruled out 50/50 custody for my children I couldn't believe it his approach was just genuine and I can't thank him enough. Even to this day I can still call him for advice which I did yesterday and yes as busy as Mr. Kaplan may be he will pick up , and if he can't talk at the moment he will return your call that same day. Very affordable but if you love your children its never a price on that.. I highly recommend!!

Thanks again,
G. Richardson

I've been having a hard time finding an attorney that deals with landlord/tenant issues until I happen to come across this site. Not only did I find an attorney I've also received a free consultation today regarding the landlord/tenant issues that I've been having. The attorney has answered all of my questions and given me excellent legal advice on how to proceed with these issues. I definitely would keep him in mind should the time come and I'd need his services.....Thank you, Lucy Riccardo

All I can Say is Dave Kaplan is the best!! From the time I met Dave in his office , to the last time I saw him his representation of my case was in the best hands Mr. David Kaplan. He made a comment to me and that was Don’t worry I will not let this go to trail. Well today I can say Mr. Kaplan kept his word, on August 27, 2018 I walked away not having to go to trail, instead I got what made me very happy. Thanks David for an awesome job in representing me in Mont County....any legal issues I have will always go to David Kaplan Esq

I’m Aaron Alexander. I called to speak to David about a situation that I had regarding something at Family Court and he was able to answer my questions without trying to get any of my money out of my pocket. I respect someone like that he also gave me a free phone consultation which is really hard to come by. Usually people will want you to come in but he answered all my questions and gave me the best advice and best direction to go in my matter. Thanks brother

I recently called their office for an initial consultation, in regards to arrears about one of my child support cases, and it was answer in a courteous, and professional manner. A few minutes later they returned my call, answer all my questions, help me to better understand how to proceed with my case, and offer me an additional consultation, if necessary!

Mr. Kaplan and Laurie were respectful and treated me like family. Mr. Kaplan took on my case at the last minute, but never treated me like a burden. He was understanding and very helpful. He worked tirelessly getting up to speed in my case. Unfortunately, due to Pennsylvania laws, there was little we could do to fight the custody case, but he made sure my concerns were heard and integrated into the final custody documents. I recommend Mr. Kaplan to anyone in any kind of case, he will not make promises he can't keep, but will fight with you and for you in the context of the law. I won't go anywhere else. On a personal note, he was concerned with my well-being and offered to pay for my gas, as I had a long way to travel after the court case. He and his wife are truly angels on earth. No lawyer has ever shown as much compassion as Mr. Kaplan and his wife.

I initially gave Mr. Kaplan and his team 5*. He knows what he is doing, but! Takes too many cases, that he can`t finish. Didn`t finished mine 1.5 later (simple divorce with no assets and no children). If you have big money case he will take care of you, otherwise will not recommend this lawyer.

Mr. Kaplan is a phenomenal lawyer, he is straight to the point. He represented me in a custody case. He was able to get me to see my daughter over my house and fought for my rights. Also, Mr. Kaplan returned all my phone calls and answered any questions that I had about legal advice. That makes him a great communicator. I am extremely happy that I hired him as my lawyer, he will be representing me again in the near future.

Attorney Kaplan took on my case that was ongoing for over two years in a matter of days before my court date. He familarize himself with my case and represented me well at my hearing infront of a Judge. I highly recommend Mr Kaplan if you are going through a tough child custody case.

On 3/13/18 Attorney Kaplan exceeded my expectations. He fought hard for my son safety and won. He treated my case as if I was his only client. He met with me on a weekend in order to understand my concerns and to get the facts about the case. Child Custody matters can be very stressful but having a good family law attorney like Attorney Kaplan can make all the difference.

My services are now complete with the desired results; I am now divorced. So kudos for doing your job that you were hired and paid to do. So why didn’t his services warrant a five star review? My experience with Mr. Kaplan and his spouse was that they were often difficult to get a hold of via telephone. They also had very little consideration for repeated reminders that my spouse was not a female during my approximately six-month divorce process. I kept reminding them that it was 2017 and that gay marriage didn’t happen yesterday...yet they kept referring to my spouse as my wife every time they spoke.

I am extremely pleased with the service Mr. Kaplan provided. This battle we have been fighting has been a very long journey. I went weeks at a time without seeing my four year old son it felt like forever. Every step of the way Mr. Kaplan was by my side. He fought for me and had my back as though he felt the same pain I was enduring, and other lawyers just show up because it puts food on the table. I was very very please to walk out of court with primary and sole legal custody of my son and I can not I mean really can not thank Mr Kaplan enough. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a lawyer.

Mr. Kaplan has been working diligently on my daughters case. Thank goodness he is so knowledgable with the law because after being in that court room with that judge he/she making me feel that, I had no standing rights. Mr.Kaplan was quick and right on point.
As the case continued and I was feeling fustrated and very disappointed with the judge. Mr. Kaplan asked for the judge to recuse themself from the case. That was the right decision and I am very pleased that I have Mr. Kaplan on our side.
Thank you for all you efforts in our continued battle in getting our greatest joy the children back into our lives once and for all.

I met Mr. Kaplan a little over a year ago as a result of an incident that occurred during the very lowest point in my life.

Mr. Kaplan has recently represented me in custody court and his services were very satisfactory. He took his time listening to my concerns and answering my many questions. He prepared me on how to properly speak to the judge. He gave me a list of what he would need the day of court in order for him to be successful in doing his job. Mr Kaplan and his wife seemed very genuine and thorough when speaking with me, which I very much appreciated considering the amount of stress I was under worrying about what will happen to my daughter. We walked out of the court room and I hugged Mr. Kaplan because we won! I had given him a list of objectives the week prior and the day of court he delivered on all of them. Mr. Kaplan is a busy man with what seems like a very full schedule, so communication is key here. However, he is a daily visitor at family court and seems to know his judges-which is a plus in my book. I would recommend him to anyone seeking an experienced family court lawyer! Thanks Affordable Legal Center.

Worst mistake and compete waste of money. He did not take the time to hear my story concerning my ex husband and child custody case. Kept telling me the issues I was bringing up were irrelevant. The day of court my ex husband's lawyer started bringing up those "irrelevant" issues. Lawyer was seriously reaching in the air for something to hold onto and say. The judge became angry at my lawyer and I because I was trying to catch him up on all these "irrelevent" issues. I ended up loosing the case because of his lack of due diligence.

It has been two years and my kids are now in therapy for emotional disturbances and are falling behind in school. Two things I brought up two years ago, education and mental health. I am going back again this month, this time without a lawyer because only I know all the "irrelevant" issues.

My husband and I have worked with Mr. Kaplan on my husband’s child custody case for over a year. Although it can be such a lengthy process to go through the Philadelphia Family Court system to get custody of a child, Mr. Kaplan helped us every step of the way. Last week he won my husband’s case and got him physical custody of his son so all of his kids could be united again.

Mr. Kaplan truly cares about his clients and is very knowledgeable about the court system. He even went out of his way to call us twice after the hearing to check in to see how things were going and answer any of our questions. We would give him 6 stars if we could and will definitely be using him as our lawyer in the future. Thank you Mr. Kaplan for helping us reunite our family.

I called and the person who answered was a paralegal. Her first question was “Do you have $3000 to give us”? I said I don’t have it write now but... before I can finish she said “well we can’t help you!” and hung up. Does this center know who’s working for them? She was very rude and I’m hope the lawyers are not like her.

Hiring Kaplan for Child Custody & Relocation was one of the BIGGEST MISTAKES OF MY LIFE!!!! I LITERALLY paid him to do NOTHING!!! FIRST off: he made me prepare documents on my OWN, docs he was paid a retainer for of 2450 to HELP me articulate... the ONLY person he was aggressive to was ME! Day of the hearing, he obviously kept asking the clerk for more time so he could run out the retainer. When we finally got seen several hours later, the judge clearly seemed to hate him because he had NO answers and she knew he was stalling...and everytime I tried to tell him important info about the abuse of my ex, he says "that's not relevant"... He was extremely rude and Disrespectful to me! He diid NO research and while he was on MY time, he was trying to recruit other clients. The ENTIRE hearing, he said about 20 words!!! He told ME "be loud and aggressive", and the judge clearly didnt like that (as all judges are different), and my ex was soft and gentle, and she responded better to him and believed HIM! In Philly, I heard from someone in court Kaplan is unlikable to 75% of the judges. He told me he saw who was residing over my case and that he had a good working relationship with her, but once we LOST, he told me he only had a case with her ONCE and that she is old-fashioned, unpredictable, and to not it personal & she doesn't handle relocations ...but you were confident about the judge UNTIL after I paid you the retainer fee? Ok!!! This My child's LIFE on the line and all he cared about was money, NOT fighting for his client once she dismissed the case!!!

It was CLEAR he cared NOTHING about winning the case, he took other calls on MY time, I HIRED him a month before my hearing and never even got an intake interview! LEGAL AID helped me more than my own lawyer. The father of my child is a narcissistic, abusive, stalking LIAR with NO lawyer who was in and out of his son's life and Kaplan's hands were shaking the entire hearing as my ex was speaking. He might be getting up in age and I gave him ALL the info he needed to win the case and the judge threw everything out because my LAWYER was incompetent. I actually saw the court officials laughing amongst one another as he was speaking. He couldn't even ever get my NAME right! He called me "Antonio" when my name is Antonia (I'm sure the judge realized he had NO knowledge of this case since couldn't get my NAME or incident timeline right).... AFTER the trial, when we got no results on modification or relocation, he looks at me and says "Well, we tried!" When i was crying and disappointed after the hearing he said "I didn't say we would win!" You will never be able to contact him directly before the hearing because he is overbooked..., he calls from a private number.. And i had NO time to talk to him until the day of the hearing after I retained him a month BEFORE!! Kaplan DOESN'T CARE!!! Also, there are cheaper retainer fees And better lawyers. VERY unprofessional and CARELESS with my case! This man won't even remember your name or circumstance. He should retire.

I've been going at my family court case alone for 3 years and have always been filled with anxiety about it. Hiring David was a breath of fresh air! I am still in awe at how effortless he took care of my case. He is so curtious and knowledgeable. He takes time out to prepare you and provide encouragement. His open line of communication is what anyone dealing with court begs for in a lawyer. He knows what hes doing and the sense of security he gives his clients alone is such a relief! Then he delivers! I can not thank you enough for the dedication you put into your practice. I know I'm in good hands and I will never walk into court without him ever again! Thank you so much!

Ms. Kaplan had helped me greatly. I approached his office seeking an attorney for my child custody case looking for physical and legal custody. Ms. Kaplan delivered no less than what I expect. He is knowledgeable and very confident, and that is what I like about him.

I got great advice and I felt so much better after calling the office. I've never been through a divorce and I was honestly lost as to what to do. By the time the conversation was over I felt better, more secure and much more optimistic. I felt like Mr. Kaplan genuinely cared about my pain and my concerns.

I would advice anyone who as a custody case to hire Mr. Kaplan. He is very understanding and takes time ensuring you are ready for court. Had a custody case and lord knows I was very nervous. Mr. Kaplan turns what would be a difficult custody into getting what I needed for my child without going into the court room. Mr. Kaplan well experience makes my daughter father agreed in getting me physical and and sole legal custody. Would recommend Mr. Kaplan for any case. Look for a well and experience attorney, mr. Kaplan is the attorney your representation.

I am honestly happy that I chose Mr Kaplan to represent me. In my case my details were difficult and involved multi state issues. Mr Kaplan was very thorough and i knew what to expect. I was the underdog in the case and in true Philly fashion I was able to conquer in court and i would not have been able to do it without the help of Mr Kaplan. I strongly recommend him for further issues me or my family may have.
