Great attorney

Attorney Acarkan is a very competent attorney. He is a great strategist, and is very honest when he is presenting you with possible outcomes of your case. Out of several attorneys I have spoken to, he was the most realistic, yet aggressive in his approach. He was able to drive my matter to completion... and deliver the the best results I could have hoped for. Definitely recommend him!

Highly Recommend

I had an excellent experience working with Atty. Guvenc Acarkan on securing my commercial lease. From the very beginning, they were knowledgeable, responsive, and attentive to every detail process. Their expertise in commercial real estate and lease negotiations helped ensure that my interests were f...ully protected and that I understood every aspect of the agreement before signing. What stood out most was their professionalism, clear communication, and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome. They took the time to answer all of my questions, addressed potential concerns proactively, and made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable. Thanks to his guidance and hard work, I was able to secure a commercial lease with confidence. I highly recommend Atty. Acarkan to anyone seeking a skilled, trustworthy, and effective attorney for commercial lease matters.

Great attorney

Attorney Acarkan helped our family create a comprehensive estate plan involving assets mostly in the U.S. and some abroad. He prepared our revocable trusts, wills, healthcare proxies, and powers of attorney, and guided us through US and international estate planning. His team's assistance with remote... notarization, deed filings, and Surrogate's Court made the entire process smooth and efficient. We did not have to do much ourselves and attorney drove things to completion by showing and confirming to us how and where filings were made and recorded. We highly recommend him to anyone especially with cross-border estate planning needs.

I highly recommend Olga and Guvench Acharkan for anyone seeking a knowledgeable and dedicated family matrimonial attorney. They provided exceptional legal guidance throughout my divorce process and made what could have been a very stressful experience much easier to navigate. Olga and Guvench were... professional, responsive, compassionate, and always took the time to answer my questions and explain every step of the process. Their attention to detail, expertise in family matrimonial law, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome gave me confidence and peace of mind from start to finish. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, my divorce matter was handled efficiently and successfully. I am truly grateful for their support and would not hesitate to recommend Olga and Guvench Acharkan to anyone in need of outstanding family matrimonial legal representation.
