About Rachel L.
Rachel L. Friedman is an attorney practicing in New Jersey who works on family law matters. She has built a practice that centers on matrimonial disputes, custody issues, support matters and related family court proceedings. Her work combines courtroom experience, motion practice and client counseling in cases that often involve both legal and personal complexities.
She earned her Juris Doctor from Seton Hall University School of Law in 2018 after completing a Bachelor of Science at Seton Hall University in 2015. Her academic years included coursework and clinic opportunities that prepared her for litigation and negotiation in state court. Those formative experiences shaped the practical side of her legal training and helped her transition quickly into a courtroom practice.
After law school she moved into private practice and now serves as an associate at Skoloff & Wolfe, P.C. In that role she handles case preparation, discovery, motions and hearings. She appears in family court on behalf of clients and works on settlements when a negotiated resolution is possible. Her position at the firm places her among attorneys who routinely address divorce, child custody, parenting time and financial issues arising from the dissolution of relationships.
Friedman maintains active memberships in the New Jersey State Bar Association and the Essex County Bar Association. She is also a member of the Northern New Jersey Family Law Inn of Court, an organization that brings together judges and practitioners to study and discuss developments in family law. Those affiliations provide a forum for continuing legal education and peer exchange that inform her courtroom work and legal strategy.
Colleagues describe her as attentive to case details and responsive to client concerns. She balances written advocacy with oral argument, preparing pleadings and presenting them at contested hearings. Her practice requires both negotiation skills and the ability to litigate when settlement is not possible. She works on matters that range from straightforward parenting arrangements to contested financial disputes.
She represents clients in New Jersey family courts and coordinates with experts and other professionals when cases involve financial valuation, forensic accounting or psychological evaluations. She currently handles family law matters at Skoloff & Wolfe, P.C.
