New Jersey SuperLawyers® 2025: A Milestone Worth Celebrating
Being named to the NJ 2025 SuperLawyer® or Rising Star list isn’t just a badge on our wall—it’s a reflection of the trust our clients place in us and the hard work our team pours into every case. The 2025 SuperLawyers® recognized from our firm include:
- Dianna C. Cavaliere
- Christopher L. Garibian
- Robyn Howlett
- Carmela L. Novi
- Rachel E. Partyka
- David Salvaggio
- Salvatore A. Simeone
- Bari Z. Weinberger (Founder)
- Gina-Marie Izzo
- Richard A. Outhwaite
- Aleida A. Piccini De Velazquez
Joining them as 2025 SuperLawyers® Rising Stars are Sara B. Cohen, Michael P. McGuire, and Hillary Piedra—talented attorneys under 40 or with 10 years or less of practice, already making impact for their clients and in the legal community.
For founders like Bari Weinberger, a Certified Matrimonial Law attorney (one of less than 0.5% of attorneys in the state able to call themselves divorce experts) with over a decade of SuperLawyers® status, this recognition is deeply personal.
“Receiving the Super Lawyers honor is especially meaningful to us because it acknowledges our dedication and commitment to providing clients with the highest level of legal care in New Jersey,” she shared. “We are truly honored by this accolade.”
What Having Award-Winning Attorneys Means for You
So, why should this matter to you? Whether you’re facing a divorce, custody battle, or another family law challenge, knowing you’re supported by a team of award-winning attorneys can make all the difference. Our priority every day is to safeguard your rights, preserve your relationships with your children, and secure a bright new future. These recognitions are a signal that our clients’ success is our success—and we’re here to deliver results.
The SuperLawyers® selection process is rigorous, relying on peer nominations, independent research, and evaluations. For Rising Stars, the same high standards apply, but the focus is on emerging talent. This dual honor across our firm—spanning seasoned experts and rising stars—means you get a blend of experience and fresh perspectives, tailored to your unique situation.
Behind the Scenes: A Team Effort
What you might not see from the outside is the collaborative spirit that fuels these achievements. Robyn Howlett, another decade-long Super Lawyer, echoes Bari’s sentiment: “Our team works tirelessly to uphold our mission of making a meaningful impact in our clients’ lives.”
From strategizing in the conference room to litigating in the courtroom, to offering compassionate guidance during consultations, every member of each of our offices plays a role in this success.
