Recent Experience

Unfortunately, I had a very unpleasant experience with this lawyer after she completed my case. Instead of investigating and sorting out her flawed invoicing practice (sending invoices NOT in order, claiming that they were sent automatically but failing to provide proof that they were sent, thus gene...rating questions about how I was quoted and billed), she talked to me in a disrespectful, intemperate, and aggressive manner accusing me of lying. In the end, she ended up refunding a small portion of the retainer, but it did not compensate for a disgraceful experience that I had. This has never happened to me before and I am still surprised by such an interaction with an attorney.

The single good choice I made on the road to divorce...

I switched representation for my divorce case to Ksenia after a disastrous start with another attorney. The difference was informative: the more expensive, more tenured attorney with a fancy office and a ton of online reviews turned out to be inefficient, and out of date. I was lucky to find Ksenia t...hrough a personal recommendation. She immediately noticed problems with how my case had been handled and identified risks which had not been highlighted to me before. My case was contested, and immensely stressful due to a long separation, a high disparity in assets, an unresolved immigration issue and a communication breakdown. That was before the pandemic struck and added an extra layer of complexity to everything. Ksenia struck the right balance of being cooperative with the opposing counsel while anticipating issues and defending my interests. She was always available to answer questions and address my concerns, but didn't let me waste legal fees on speculation or unnecessary work. Her approach was strongly informed by best practice and experience, but flexible when I was able to propose an approach or take on work myself (for example in the case of financial analysis, where I was able to make a considerable saving). My divorce could have been disastrous for me - financially, and emotionally, amid the backdrop of 2020. Thanks to Ksenia I made it to the other side in good mental and financial health, and cannot recommend her enough.

Very professional and responsive

I was looking for an attorney to prepare our prenuptial agreement. Ksenia was recommended to me by my colleague. I was able to reach her right away. She spent a decent amount of time with me on the phone explaining all the cons and pros of an Agreement. I than came into her office and she was very we...lcoming, very professional and dd not waste time on talk. she got right to working. She managed to negotiate the terms with my husband's attorney and everyone was very happy. I strongly recommend her!!!

such a professional attorney and psychologist

ihired Ksenia after a very bad experience with my previous attorney. I was going through a very complicated divorce, which was very emotionally difficult. My previos attorney never listened, never let me interrupt him and only semed to talk a lot on unrelated topics, than sent me huge bills. Ksenia l...istened to me. Not only she provided a great outcome in my divorce, she was also a great emotional support throughout the process. She is a great negotiator, and was able to reach the agreement which left me very happy.

"After observing Attorney Rudyuk in a very heated contested hearing, I came away impressed with her calm rationale demeanor and her ability to argue persuasively with legal arguments while opposing counsel could only utilize anger and emotive appeals. The hearing ended with the Judge sanctioning the opposing counsel who was typically perceived as a court bully. I was pleased that logic and the law still prevail over non sensical tactics in family court. Ms. Rudyuk is clearly a very competent attorney and I endorse her."
