Biography

Meet Andrew M. Wolfenson — alimony lawyer in Union

Our firm mantra is "providing our clients with a fresh start" - whether assisting them through the often-difficult process of divorce, the confusing process of bankruptcy, the nerve-wracking but exciting process of purchasing a new home or business, or the formality-heavy process of changing one's name. Our firm's goal is to best prepare our clients for the next stage of their lives - a goal that we take extremely seriously.

Since forming my own firm almost 30 years ago, I have earned the respect of my clients, adversaries, and the courts in Northern and Central New Jersey. In both 2025 and 2026, I have been selected as a New Jersey "Super Lawyer," an accolade earned by only 5% of attorneys in the state of New Jersey and which is based on peer recommendations, peer reviews, and the awarding company's independent research. I have been honored with membership in the prestigious "Lawyers of Distinction," and have been selected as one of "New Jersey's Best Family Attorneys" by NJ Family Magazine for the past seven years. I have also been appointed by the courts on numerous occasions to assist by serving in roles such as Special Fiscal Agent or court-appointed Administrator of an Estate.

Despite the long hours at the office, however, I also have a life outside of the law. In addition to being an attorney and spending time with my family, I am also an author, having written the legal thrillers "In His Ex-Wife's Defense," "In His Own Defense," and "Deadly Fantasy: A Baseball Story". All books are available on amazon.com and for Kindle. I also serve as the Commissioner of a Fantasy Baseball League.
