Gary S Avratin

I hired Gary formally as my divorce lawyer after a failed attempt without him at mediation. He has been extremely helpful in all aspects of this process. Everything from informing me of the law (even when I didn't like what I heard), keeping the opposition lawyer in-step with all disclosures, and dra...fting a professional and detailed settlement agreement to finally finish this process. Gary has been an advocate, level headed, highly professional, and incomparable in working within the law to achieve the best possible outcome. Gary and his staff (particularly Helene) have my highest possible recommendation for anyone going through this process. I also want to commend Gary for not killing me with costs and providing me a bill that was fair and reasonable, and in the end less expensive than my mediation process was. Thanks Gary!

Attorney Gary Avratin and his paralegal Helene - let’s call them, Team Gary- worked effortless on my unique situation; and the displayed of perseverance in seeking favorable resolutions prior to my case going to trial. I am grateful for their time and attention they have spent on my case and the impe...ccable due diligence devoted a month prior to trial. My expectations from Team Gary are the trial preparation which they had already filed all the exhibits for consideration into evidence and to know the facts of my case. Team Gary's efforts did not go unnoticed by me. Again, greatly appreciated.

The divorce process can be painful both emotionally and financially. If you want an attorney who listens well, is compassionate and will have your back when you need protection, Gary is your guy. My case was exceptionally complex. When we arrived in court the opposing attorney commented on how mu...ch work Gary did on my agreement. Even the judge expressed how unusual it was to reach agreement without a trial. If he is ever delayed in responding to non urgent matters, be patient; he is worth the wait!

Gary Avratin is an absolutely amazing attorney. With over 20 years of experience in family law, and family members in the same field he truly knows his business. From the moment I met Gary he was upfront and honest with everything. He educated me about the process so that I knew what to expect in cou...rt and therefore I was able to assist Gary in the preparation. Communication with Gary is easy whether it’s by phone or through email, he always makes it a priority to call or email back as soon as its physically possible for him. I even spoke with him on the weekends at times. If I couldn't get in touch with him, his paralegal Helene is always by the phone ready to help in any way she could. Truly an amazing team! Unfortunately, my legal matter required a trial. Gary prepared me for the trial and together we prepared the evidence that was presented to the Judge. I knew when I walked into the court room that I was prepared and that my lawyer had what he needed to help me. Gary conducted himself with such professionalism. He clearly knows the rules of evidence and how to conduct a trial. The Judge found in my favor after reviewing multiple exhibits and hearing from several witnesses. I highly recommend Gary and Helene in The Avratin Law Office.
