Gary S Avratin

Attorney Avratin and Helene helped me through a difficult divorce case. Without their help, I would not have had the successful outcome that I had. Attorney Avratin worked tirelessly to make sure the truth was told and presented it perfectly. He supported every one of my requests and guided me throug...h each step of the process. Challenges came up along the way and Attorney Avratin did not falter. His thorough research and creative approach provided us the pathway to a fair and just resolution. I highly recommend Attorney Avratin. He is honest, reliable, professional and will get the job done.

Divorce is never a pleasant experience and I had a lot of anxiety going into this process. While looking for a lawyer close to home and close to the court house, I had found Gary's office. Called for a meeting and I was able to get right in to get the process started. Gary was able to chill me out an...d relieve most of my anxiety. I had many questions that we were able to navigate through and answer. When it did come time to meet the financial requirements, I found Gary was quite reasonable compared to other firms I had looked into. Anytime I contacted Gary for any updates on how the process was going, he always got back to me in a reasonable time regardless of what Gary was involved with. When the court date finally had arrived, Gary had everything ready to go. The court house can be an intimidating place, and Gary kept me relaxed, and the whole process went as expected with no surprises. I would highly recommend Gary Avratin to represent anyone through the difficult process of divorce.

Gary Avratin was not only knowledgeable in my specific situation but compassionate and very collaborative. His firms combined experience proved to be invaluable. Willing to go above and beyond traditional measures to protect my interests, and he remains committed to following through and closing out ...all post divorce issues. He lives up to his earned reputation and will be your best advocate. The opposing council will have their work cut out for them if you hire Gary!

Gary is a compassionate attorney who I was fortunate to find. He was my second attorney and I did a lot of research before making the decision to hire Gary. My divorce was quite complicated as it involved a young child, a restraining order, a business and several pieces of real estate all of which ...were highly contested. Gary navigated me seamlessly though understanding our strategy, supported by case law, and confidently advocated for me in my many court appearances. He was always extremely organized, diligent in his efforts and always took the time to check in on me to ensure I was doing ok. My divorce took many unexpected twists and turns and he was always my calming force, strong and steady and was able to comb through many messy details of my case. Almost 2-years in we were headed for trial and if you think your case might also go to trial, you want Gary as your attorney! He’s experienced with the process which has many rules different from normal court appearances. Gary also has a comprehensive understanding of financials which was needed in my case as it involved a complicated business and real estate valuations. He found errors in valuations in the opposing side, all which were confirmed to be valid and forced them to correct their position. He was also always very diligent in all his pleadings to ensure I was properly protected. I am grateful I did not end up in trial, but If I did I would not have wanted anyone else to defend me. We were fortunate to settle the case when my ex’s first attorney(Katie Murphy) quit and he got another one, who finally brought a sense of reason to the table and Gary and her were able to settle my case. What stands out the most about Gary is that remembered some of the smallest details that I had even forgotten, he was always considerate of how I was feeling and is extremely zealous and successfully argued and won virtually every time we were before the judge. He knows family law very well and I always trusted his advice and direction, which always panned out positively for me. Gary is also supported by his associate Helene who is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, detail oriented, and an attorney herself making them a very strong team. My case overall took a little over two years to settle and most of which I had Gary as my attorney. He always made himself accessible even on weekends, early mornings and evenings, and he is not like most other attorneys charging for every minute you speak with them. I felt like he was always considerate on the billing and often did not charge me for things. He is a reasonable compassionate and very knowledgeable attorney and I would choose him again in a heartbeat.
