We’re proud to celebrate all five of MELD Law’s partners being recognized in the 2027 edition of Best Lawyers® for their work in Family Law.

West Orange
Ashley Vallillo Manzi
Robert Epstein
Thomas DeCataldo
Stephanie Lomurro — also recognized for Family Law Mediation

East Brunswick

And we’re equally proud to celebrate two attorneys on our team, Nikki Caruso and Andrew Rhein, recognized in Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® for Family Law.

Peer recognition is meaningful, but what makes us especially proud is what these attorneys bring to MELD every day: thoughtful counsel, strong advocacy, collaboration and a commitment to helping clients navigate family law matters that can profoundly affect their lives and their families.

From our partners to the next generation of attorneys building their careers at MELD, this recognition reflects something we value deeply — having a strong team at every level.

Congratulations to Ashley, Bobby, Tom, Steph, Lauren, Nikki and Andrew! We’re proud to have you representing MELD.

At MELD Law, we're always happy to celebrate when a family grows.

Recently, our own Jackie Dugan opened her home to a foster dog named Frank. Found in a condemned house in New York alongside 24 other dogs, Frank was looking for a safe place to stay while he waited for his forever family.

The plan was simple: foster him for a couple of weeks and help him find a home.

Frank had other plans.

Somewhere along the way, his personality, resilience, and delightfully unique little face won everyone over. What began as a temporary stop became a permanent one, and we're thrilled to share that Frank is officially a Dugan.

Stories like Frank's are a reminder that family comes in many forms, and sometimes the best additions are the ones you never saw coming.

Congratulations to Jackie and her family on their newest member. ❤️🐾

Welcome home, Frank.
