All three partners are experienced divorce mediators, and the majority of the rm’s practice will consist of litigat- ing important divorce and family law matters such as contested custody, ali- mony, domestic violence hearings, child support, and the equitable distribution of marital assets. The rm will also assist clients in the negotiation of prenuptial agreements. Along with a staff of experienced and trained paraprofessionals, Jane Al- tman, Esq., will join the rm “of coun- sel” with decades of experience. Heidi Lepp, Esq., and Sarah Eaton, Esq., were formerly partners with the rm of Shi- malla, Wechsler, Lepp, and D’Onofrio, LLP, with an of ce in Warren, Somerset County, and Mark Mayrides, Esq., and Jane Altman, Esq., were formerly part- ners with the rm Altman, Legband & Mayrides, PC, with of ces in Skillman and Basking Ridge, Somerset County. “The foundation of this new rm and our partnership is a mutual respect forged over many years,” says Mark Mayrides, Esq., “I had many cases against Heidi Lepp and Sarah Eaton, and I got to experience rst-hand their tenaciousness and talent, both in the courtroom and during complex nego- tiations. By working together on bar association events, I also got to know each of them personally, and to see what honest and committed people they are outside the courtroom.” “Mark Mayrides, Esq., and Jane Alt- man, Esq., have been xtures in the lo- cal community for decades,” says Heidi Lepp, Esq., and I’m excited to nally have the opportunity to work with Mark, as op- posed to against him in the courtroom.” “It’s an incredible opportunity,” adds Sarah Eaton, Esq., “in this time of great change to be able to offer a new rm, one that will place clients and their issues rst, will give back to the local community, and will allow each of our attorneys and staff to continue serving Somerset County and adjacent coun- ties with our high quality, honest, and passionate legal services.” The partners each agree that the timing for a new endeavor is challeng- ing. “To start anything new during these unprecedented times is interesting, to say the least,” says MarkMayrides, Esq., “but we believe it’s more important than ever that clients are offered a full range of premium services.” The new rm will offer contact-less services and technology consistent with the times, including Zoom consults and meetings. “Divorce and family law issues are invariably dif cult and too often fueled by emotion,” says Heidi Lepp, Esq., “That’s one constant I’ve witnessed over my nearly thirty years in practice. Now with the pandemic, it’s even more important that clients are provided with passionate and sophisticated legal ad- vice. By teaming up together, we will be able to provide a range of offerings that fully meet the needs of today’s consum- er of family law services.” “We get it,” adds Sarah Eaton, Esq. “We too are parents, and we too are members of the local community. We live here and raise our children here, the same as our clients. Every case is unique, every client is unique, every child is unique, and now because of the pandemic, it seems that every day is unique. It’s our mission and our goal to take our years of collective experience to help clients navigate the turbulent waters of these times. I’m excited for us and I’m excited for our clients.” Lepp, Mayrides & Eaton, LLC, focuses on divorce and family law cas- es, domestic violence cases, divorce and family law mediation, and pre- nuptial agreements.
