Gabrielle L Strich

I have known Gabrielle for more than a decade. Initially I had rented office space from her. In recent times when I got into an intractable situation it was to Gabrielle I turned for help. I have been astounded by her work ethic. It’s not an exaggeration to say that she probably doesn’t waste even ...a minute while working. She is meticulous in her preparation of the case file with electronic and paper records being maintained. She is certified in Collaborative Divorce, thus minimizing conflict ( and legal bills) in divorce situations. Contrary to what a previous reviewer stated she is not about ‘ tearing families apart’. To the contrary, she is empathetic and never advocates for divorce; the clients who approach her have already made that decision. She attempts to help them through this difficult phase by minimizing conflict and unnecessary litigation. She is a fair and ethical lawyer and I would recommend her without any reservations whatsoever.

Gabrielle took the time to get to know me and what was important to me in this process. Throughout the journey, she continued to guide me to a fair settlement that took into account my values and personal feelings. Whenever I needed to bounce an idea around, she was there to listen first, and sugge...st second. Further, she is knowledgeable about the intricacies of divorce, and was able to help me to navigate this completely foreign territory. With her firm but kind way, she worked well with the other collaborative lawyer. I am grateful that she was on this journey with me!

I interned with Gabrielle for 15 weeks over the summer, and during the course of the internship she taught me a lot. From the very beginning she took me under her wing and opened her firm up to me. I learned so much about various topics within the law. I had the opportunity to sit in on consultatio...ns with her as well as accompany her to court. In the consultations I learned which questions to ask and how to solve problems while being cost effective. While in court with her, I learned how to negotiate with the opposing counsel while still remaining true to the client. On the day to day, I would read court cases then discuss them with her and then write a summary that I could post to her blog site. Discussing such cases helped me to better understand the broader topic it fell under, whether that be divorce/separation, elder law, employment law, etc. Gabrielle is well versed in the areas she practices, she cares for her clients and will always fight for them. She is a lawyer I trust and if I ever had legal troubles I would go to her. She understands the problems and immediately knows how to resolve the issue for her client without breaking the bank. Gabrielle has given me an experience I will never forget and she has become my mentor.
