Compassionate true professional!

Gwynne Zisko, handles her clients with professionalism and compassion. In the face of adversity and unscrupulous opposition she never compromises her integrity or lowers her standards. She knows the law and explains things in terms that even the layman can understand. My case was not an easy case by ...any means but she handled with confidence and honesty. I would never want to go through a divorce again but if I had to the first person I would contact to have in my corner would be Gwynne Zisko.

Caring and Knowledgeable

Gwynne Zisko helped me at a time when I felt completely alone. She welcomed me and made me feel at home. Gwynne completely understood my situation with my husband and children. She immediately offered sound advice. Her expertise in the area of divorce law is unparalleled. She achieved a settleme...nt for me that allowed me to get out of a bad situation. I have moved on in a positive direction and I owe it all to Gwynne!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
