The only lawyer you should be considering!

Evey Diaz is a highly skilled, professional, and EXTREMELY knowledgeable lawyer. My divorce was a high conflict divorce, child custody case. Evey was not only extremely knowledgeable, but she was highly sensitive to the fact that it was proving to be a traumatic experience for all involved. She woul...d 'check in' with us and make sure we knew what was happening at all times. Beyond being a highly skilled and extremely knowledgable lawyer, Evey devotes all of her time in her clients. With such dedication that should put you at ease knowing that your case will be handled fully, professionally, and right the first time. She walked me through all options about my case, making it easier to weigh my options. She was always on top of emails and other communication and I knew what was going on with my case almost as quickly as Evey found out herself. Without Evey, I wouldn't have known where to start with my case. I could not have asked for better representation, and working with Evey was incredibly easy, and the least stressful part of a very difficult, painful event in my life. I’m moving forward with my new life on a very positive note and also knowing that I was represented by the most professional and well-rounded attorney that anyone could ever ask for and my children are safe. If you need peace of mind when faced with a court case, Evey Diaz, is the attorney you should be considering. Our community truly is blessed to have a professional, highly skilled, knowledgeable lawyer like Evey Diaz. I will forever be grateful for her and will always recommend her to my family/friends.

PLEASE read this.

I came to Evey broken and defeated after already spending $15K with another attorney. I had watched on the sideline as she fought tenaciously and WON the custody and child support battles that my girlfriend took a equity loan out just to fight back . So I switched to Evey & started over! It took her ...all of 10 minutes to discern who I was & why I insisted to fight for my boys against the odds. My ex effectively threatened to remove our children from the country if I didn't adhere to her wishes. I was distraught. Evey refused to let my light extinguish. She attacked my case, immediately filing with the court. She established a respected and productive report with opposing counsel. It was Evey and her alone in court that won me back my boys. Not just giving me equal parenting time-and keeping them in the US, She made it possible for me to be the dad I was in their eyes before the divorce. Thanks Evey!!!! Thanks for "Seeing me" And thanks to my GF for supporting me and encouraging me to call her.

Best of the Best- cares for people.

Prior to hiring Ms. Diaz I had another attorney whom wasn’t doing much at all on my case. After hiring Ms. Diaz she got me into court that same week and moved everything on my case right away. She was always on point, polite, quick to respond to emails/ case updates. I felt at ease the moment she too...k my case. She has great deal of divorce case experience, worked hard with her team on my case and even during pandemic time she was able to get me divorced in less than 1 year. I have no idea what I would have done without her. She did get me the best deal possible on my case.

Diligent, Compassionate

Approximately 18 months ago, I found myself in a custody battle with my ex-husband. I had never been in a situation like this and did not know what to expect or where to turn to. I was referred to the law office of Grimaldi & Pesiridis, I immediately contacted them, I was called back and met with a...ttorney Evey Diaz in lightning fashion. Upon meeting Attorney Diaz, she listened and promised to fight for me all the way, which she certainly did. Right from my first meeting with Attorney Diaz, it was almost therapeutic to me, she constantly made all the dull moments of my court case a lot brighter. I was extremely impressed with Attorney Diaz’s ability to get right up to speed on all the facts of my custody case. She had immense patience with me and my case, making an extremely difficult time easier and less stressful, which I greatly appreciated. She truly improved my life, never making me feel like a paying client, she always made me feel like a friend. After what seemed like forever, my children and I have come out on the other side of what seemed like an eternal process of restoring our life as a family. The whole journey started over 4 years ago, and I truly believe if it was not for Attorney Diaz it would have turned out differently for all of us. I am completely satisfied with all aspects of the journey. I was surprised by the complexity of the legal system and Attorney Diaz’s progress in dealing with it. I would highly recommend her and the firm of Grimaldi & Pesiridis who finds themselves in a predicament like mine, utilize her expertise in dealing with any legal matters. She certainly taught me a lot and without her compassion and expert advice, I might not have gotten custody of my children back. Attorney Diaz treated me with great dignity, when the judicial system was making me feel like a piece of garbage. She put up with all my frustrations and always answered any and all my questions through out the whole process. Most importantly she made me feel like we mattered. That type of service and respect is sorely lacking today. Attorney Diaz is a first-class attorney as well as a first-class person. She has my undying respect and gratitude. I feel because of her, my children and I have a new lease on life.

She was my lifeline

Evey has been a ROCK for me through a complicated and difficult post-divorce custody issue. From the time I met her, I felt like she was a friend who genuinely cared for me and my girls. I guess it says it all when I say that the morning of my first court date, I was greeted with a hug and a smile ...not a handshake. Evey is assertive, responsive and incredibly proactive when it comes to advocating for me and my children. She is focused and detail oriented but remains even-keeled and sees the "big picture". I know if I need in-the-moment advice she has been there. I am never kept waiting - calls and emails are always returned quickly. She even called me while on vacation with her family to help me deal with an urgent issue. She has helped navigate so many different pieces to this puzzle with ease, including DCF and GAL's. Dealing with this has been one of the scariest and stressful experiences of my life., but I have never felt alone in this whole situation with her on my side. I truly cannot thank her enough or recommend her enough to anyone needing representation.
