Child Custody & Estate Expert
Attorney Zisko was able to help me get joint legal custody and significant shared parenting time with my son nearly 16 years ago. My relationship with my son's mother was "not the best" but Gwynne fought hard on my behalf to finalize an equitable custody agreement and quash my son's mother's (multip...

I needed a lawyer to advise me on a probate matter.
After a DNA test proved without a doubt who my father was, I was advised to go to the Plymouth Probate Court House to review the documents, not knowing what the papers truly meant, i ask for the lawyer of the day. How lucky I was to have a phone call from Attorney Zisko. Her expertise in this area ...
Dear Pam, You are very welcome, and I thank you for your high praise! Readers should note that the Probate & Family Courts in each county have a program called Volunteer Lawyer for the Day. Local attorneys volunteer for a duty day to help self-represented litigants understand: 1. the law; 2. the required procedure; and 3. the facts/evidence in their own case. I have been volunteering throughout my 30 year career, and I am always happy to meet and assist someone as lovely as you!

A Complete Failure
Do not pay this "Attorney" a retainer. I paid her $5000.00 on December 16, 2021, which is when my check was deposited. On January 10, 2022, I had not heard anything from her. I called her office and she said she was waiting for my retainer. I explained to her she had deposited my check on the date a...
Dear Bill, I understand your frustration with the delay of your matter. But as you know, I was in regular contact with the court about the progress of your filing, and they were running VERY far behind. In fact, when I called to check on the status at one point, they said that they were still inputting cases received back in December! Meanwhile, you and I spent much time talking, meeting, planning and discussing the unique challenges raised by your situation - much of which was not billed to you. Then, after all of that, you directed me to halt the case entirely, and have it dismissed. You seemed relieved when the court returned the pleadings of their own accord - saving us the time and cost of obtaining a dismissal. I remain committed to seeing that your goals are achieved here in MA - if that is what you now intend. Please do call me to discuss ways that I may satisfy you and get your case back on track.

SHE'S A UNICORN
Gwynne Zisko is a unicorn. An absolutely mythical creature, so I thought. Good people, do exist. Selfless. She is NOT my lawyer, in full disclosure. My situation is serious. I've been guided to organizations that can help, should be able to help. They either didn't respond or passed the buck to oth...

Amazing & Very helpful! Free 30 minute Consult✨
I had a FREE 30 minute consultation with Gwynne. The conversation went well above my expectations. She was very knowledgeable while also being compassionate and caring. She made me feel so at ease and made sure to let me know what my rights are as a unmarried mother trying to leave her spouse. Please...
Dear Friend, I was very happy to set you straight on the important differences between what your ex is threatening will happen and what the law dictates will happen! So often, fear and intimidation cloud one's judgment and influence how best to proceed. You now know better, and I will be happy to assist you in your next steps.
