I know people stopped asking shalom bayis questions but would you have a bachur discuss yeshivas with him or a girl discuss a shidduch?

People ask him all types of questions, including shalom bayis questions. That said, I think he needs to know the bachur and girl well to be able to discuss a yeshiva and shidduch with them. I think the family needs to have a prior connection to him, he needs to know the family.

He is a Dayan, unless they are going for chassan classes I don't see how it would help if they didn't have a Relationship before.

If they live in Monsey they can start by going to daven at his shul and go over to introduce themselves.

Many people would not do this publically. His number is in the phone book and he answers the phone. Davening at his shul sounds like weird advice to me.

Of course people can just call and ask him questions. He doesn't need to know you to answer a generic question. But how can anyone help a bachur with Yeshivos, a girl with seminary, and other personal family things if they have no idea who you are?

He will meet with the people or charge them money or whatever. Most people would not just walk over to his shul.

I want to point out that his name is Reb or Rabbi Shmiel Nieman. Pet peeve of mine when referring to Rabbonim.

Sure people do it. DH davens there and people do it all the time. He's really happy when anyone goes over to introduce themselves. He obviously won't have time to talk about the issue on the spot. But they can introduce themselves and make up a good time to meet. You can also call him up to set up an appointment to meet him. He doesn't always charge, depending on the situation. But he does marriage counseling and relationship counseling as a business, of course he charges.

Ok so the people I know would not approach him in person or in public. They would just call and make an apt.

Yes, do you think we need to be afraid of him making the bachur choose the less chassidishe yeshiva or encouraging a girl to choose something less frum? I'm hearing such extreme statements I don't know what to do. Someone else said to speak to a dayan R' Beck from Montreal who just relocated to Monsey.

He would only be able to advise you if he knows the bachur/girl/family situation really well. Such questions are not meant to be asked of strangers that don't know you and your family. You can schedule an appointment and you'll tell him the entire situation and story and he'll hopefully advise you accordingly once he gets a feel of the situation.

I think he deals more with shalom bayis issues. But you can inquire about this.

People definitely are using him for shalom bayis issues. He's an expert in relationship situations.
