We are pleased to share that Bari Z. Weinberger, Esq., founder and managing partner of Weinberger Divorce & Family Law Group, has been named to NJ Family’s 2026 list of Best Lawyers for Families for family law.
The annual recognition is based on attorney nominations submitted by parents and other readers of NJ Family magazine, from across the state. To compile its list of honorees, NJ Family invites individuals to nominate attorneys who have made a meaningful difference in their lives and the lives of their children. Nominators are asked to share their experiences and explain why their attorney stands out.
The result is a carefully curated list of family law attorneys who have gone above and beyond in advocating for parents and families navigating complex legal matters, including divorce, custody, child support, legal guardianship matters, and modification issues.
“This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes directly from the families we have had the privilege to represent,” Bari confirmed “It reflects the trust our clients place in us during some of the most difficult moments in their lives, and our continued commitment to protecting their children, their rights, and their futures.”
A Commitment to Protecting Families
From high-conflict custody disputes to complex divorce matters, Bari and the firm remain focused on achieving outcomes that prioritize both legal protection and long-term family well-being.
“Safeguarding children and protecting the relationships parents have with their kids is central to our mission at Weinberger Divorce & Family Law Group,” Bari confirmed. “Our entire team dedicates itself to doing right by families…advocating for parents, protecting children, and preserving the relationships that matter most.”
Selection Methodology
According to NJ Family’s stated methodology, nominations are collected annually from readers and thoroughly reviewed by their editorial and project management team. Each submission is evaluated to ensure it reflects the experience of someone who has worked directly with the attorney.
Only one verified nomination is required for inclusion, and all entries are vetted for authenticity before the final list is published in the magazine’s April issue and online.
A Message of Gratitude
We extend our sincere thanks to the families who took the time to submit nominations and share their experiences. Your trust and feedback mean everything to us.
Congratulations to Bari on this well-deserved recognition!
Finding the Right Family Lawyer FAQs
What should I look for when choosing an attorney for my divorce or custody matter?
Look for an attorney whose practice is focused on family law so your legal counsel is deeply familiar with the issues you are facing, whether that involves divorce, custody, support, adoption, or post-judgment matters. It is also important to consider experience, communication style, and the attorney’s ability to explain your options clearly and thoughtfully.
How do I know if a family law attorney is the right fit for me?
Beyond credentials, fit comes down to how an attorney approaches your case. During a consultation, consider whether the attorney listens carefully, understands your priorities, and offers a clear strategy rather than vague reassurance. You should leave the conversation with a better understanding of your options and a sense of confidence in how your matter would be handled.
What questions should I ask during a consultation with a family lawyer?
It can be helpful to ask about the attorney’s experience with cases similar to yours, how they approach negotiation versus litigation, and what you can expect in terms of timeline and communication. Asking these types of questions can give you a clearer picture of how your case may proceed and whether the attorney’s approach aligns with your goals.
