Review for Gary Avratin

Gary was not my divorce lawyer but I often I wished he was. I hired Gary after spending many thousands of dollars on a divorce which left me financially vulnerable and with an ex-husband who was in contempt of our separation agreement. Gary spent 1 1/2 hours with me, learning the facts of my case bef...ore he was even hired. He was confident that he could help me to rectify the situation and that confidence rubbed off on me. His fees were very fair (and I should know having been "churned" by my divorce lawyers) and he was very accessible by phone, email and even text. I would definitely hire him in the future if the need arose.

Will take you from START to FINISH

Attorney Avratin gave me the confidence and strength to do what I had been trying to do for over 20 years. Through this very difficult time, he was my rock, my shoulder to cry on, my sounding board. His expertise and work ethics are without question but it is his ability to make one feel safe and p...ositive in such a terrible situation that sets him apart. He is a total package and without his legal defense I do not feel I would have come as far as I have. Attorney Gary Avratin came highly recommended to me by someone I totally respect and admire and has lived up to his acclaim.

A job well done

Thank you and Helene for all your efforts in my trial last week. I couldn't believe the amount of time that went into preparing, planning and executing for the 2 day trial! You are a very busy lawyer. When my trial date was set, I had worries that you might not have enough time for me and you would ...be distracted with your other workload. But you proved that I was wrong. You were in the office at 5:00 AM and didn't stop all day. I know you gave up time with your family to help mine and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. Your constant focus on what was best for my children, your attention to detail, your' dedication to the facts and your tremendous effort helped achieve the best possible outcome. We worked great together as a team. I and my children thank you. I hope my nightmare is over and I don't have to go to court ever again, However, I am more at ease now knowing that I will have someone who's dedicated and experienced to depend on if such occasion rise again.

A Very Caring Lawyer

I had hopes that we could end our relationship peacefully and take back our initial investments. He thought differently & kept dragging me into court monthly. Then I hired Gary. He was recommended by a client. I can't say enough about Gary. During this difficult time, he was always well prepared fo...r court,("his" lawyer could never keep up, she was always fumbling for responses to Gary). He was very sharp, intelligent and honest. He expected honesty from his client. When an agreement was finallly made, (in my favor) he recommended a financial & legal team that was able to very swiftly(in record time) help me buy "him" out & end the year long nightmare. Because of Gary, I can finally relax. He's a great caring person as well as an excellent lawyer. I can't say enough good things about him.

I recommend Gary S. Avratin

If you are looking for a caring and knowledgeable attorney, Gary Avratin is your man. He treats his clients as if they were members of his family. He is always ready to listen and assist in any way he can. Gary often met with me on Sunday mornings, giving up precious time with his beautiful family an...d would call me often in the evening to make sure I was doing well. Gary receives an A+ from me.
