Gary Avratin

Gary was recommended by a friend and I am glad I met with him. I chose him to represent me because he took the time to really learn about me and my situation. As emotional as I was, he always told me what I needed (not wanted) to hear in order to prepare me to be able to make the decisions I needed t...o during this process. He always steered me away from making choices in fear rather than what was best for me and my family. Gary is the most compassionate, thoughtful, caring and tenacious advocate there could be and he was exactly what I needed to get through this process and helped me be a stronger person at the other end of it.

It there could be anything good about a divorce, it was Gary Avratin

Gary has been a great help during this bad time in my life, there's something's in life that you have no control over and Gary added order in an uncontrollable time, I consider Gary a personal friend that was there for me more than just a lawyer for hire.

Gary Avratin is an intelligent, competent attorney

Gary has represented me on a number of occasions against what I consider to be an aggressive attorney. Gary fought to the fullest in a professional manner. I am grateful to have had Gary on my side. His knowledge of the legal system coupled with his experience makes him an incredible attorney. While ...he could not guarantee any outcomes, essentially everything he predicted would happen did. Gary came in on weekends, made early/late phonecalls etc. to make sure my questions and issues were addressed. I Would not hesitate to recommend Gary Avratin for a second. He is an amazing, intelligent, competent attorney.

I highly recommend Gary Avratin and his assistant Helene LoConte

My best friend left when he divorced me after 22 years; but as a result I gained 2 lifelong friends in Gary Avratin and his assistant Helene LoConte. There's no other team I would rather have worked with. They're great people and extremely knowledgeable in what they do. Gary was referred to me by 3 p...eople who couldn't possibly have known each other. Gary worked very diligently with me, patiently explained and kept me involved in the process. He wouldn't quit until I received what I deserved, given the length of my marriage. The final agreement was "light-years" away from my husband and his lawyers' original offer! During the distressing times of my divorce, family members became ill and I became extremely low. The compassionate side of Gary then became evident. In spite of his very busy family life, he checked on me periodically at my home to see if I was okay. Gary is a gentle man of vast knowledge, who is caring and comforting. He is a fabulous lawyer and a genuinely great person!

Best Choice

Gary Avartin was recommended to me by a family member that had a positive experience with Gary. When I had the need for Gary Avratin, I was confused and needed guidance. Gary was extremely helpful with a plan of attack and was there for me 100%. His help was compassionate on every issue that came ...up. He was available to me anytime I needed him. Hopefully, I will never end up in the situation when I need his services again, but if I do - Gary will be my first call.
