Oksana Sokolova

Oksana Sokolova is one of the most important advisors we’ve ever had the privilege of consulting with for our business as well as our family. For over a decade, Sokolova has successfully guided us through some very complex and challenging legal issues. In our communications with her, she listens, ...defines items of importance, discerns what the priorities are, then presents authoritative options combined with common sense advise in plain language. While we find her to be very friendly and easy to talk to, we are also impressed with the tough negotiation skills that she demonstrated on our behalf when necessary. She dedicates herself to our issues as if they were her own, or as if we were her primary client or only priority. We are very grateful for Sokolova’s legal advice and guidance, and are certain we wouldn’t have succeeded and reached the goals we intended for ourselves without her services.

Oksana Sokolova is a true professional in her field, not only in legal matters but on a humanitarian level as well, showing compassion and patience. I am a client of Oksana Sokolova, Oksana represented me in a legal Real Estate matter abroad, she proved to be very knowledgeable and efficient, dem...onstrating professionalism and personal attention, foreseeing potential problems before they occurred, going above and beyond to break down every legal term in the lengthy and complicated contract so that we could understand. Oksana is a skilled negotiator who knew which changes to make for our benefit, at the end we came out winners! Forever grateful. ~ Thank You Oksana!

I found Oksana through a recommendation by the Russian consulate in New York. I’m limitlessly grateful for it. When I met Oksana my case was already closed due to negligence and incompetence of American attorneys, each blaming the prior one for their failures. I was misled, deceived, and defrau...ded by five attorneys in total. Oksana studied the case very thoroughly, getting into its finest details, and concluding that it wasn’t her specialty. However, she was willing to offer help, opinion, and guidance. The case was relatively straight forward. My husband is a very sick man suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. His children abused his condition and stole from him. Most attorneys I dealt with before would charge high fees, but I didn’t hear a strong legal position and didn't see results. My experience with Oksana was quite the opposite. She structured our thinking and framed our legal stance. This was the first time I felt confident that we had a solid winning position. Looking back on the prior attorney’s work, it all seemed vague, and questionable by comparison. She did what I was paying others to do. Oksana ended up guiding my attorneys in many ways. Importantly, she became a stakeholder in my case, she was present, and she would ask my attorneys the questions I wasn’t qualified to ask, which motivated them to do the work they were being paid to do. We ended up winning the case, to the surprise of my attorney. The court gave my husband’s children 45 days to prepare a report on how they spent the money after which there was a long silence from my attorneys. Oksana again stepped in stating that the silence is suspicious. She asked me to send her the most current papers and found out that, my attorneys were to submit documents to the court as per the court schedule, and the other side was to respond by the 11th of the month. Oksana called the attorney and found out that he never submitted the documents. The attorney admitted that he was at fault. Oksana again stepped in and fixed the situation, saving the case once again. Quite ironically, one attorney asked me to write a review as soon as I hired him. Literally, before he did any work. Oksana never did, and that’s why I’m writing it. She appeared in court as my trusted representative. According to even my attorney, she was very bold and presented the case in a way that the judge had no doubts as to the merits of our position. Oksana is a person you can trust with your case. Even if she is not handling it directly as an attorney, she can be your representative to ensure your attorneys are not defrauding you. She makes attorneys accountable. She asks them the right questions and stands your ground. We have to trust attorneys because we have no knowledge or competence or time to know whether they are doing the right thing, whether they are following your interests or those of their own (which I found to be the case more often than not). It’s just too tempting when the client has no clue. Attorneys can simply tell the client the case was too complex or their position was too weak, and the client would never know whether it was the weakness of the case or the attorney. The client doesn’t know how to stand up for themselves against their own attorney. The client can’t hold the attorney accountable. The client doesn’t know about bar associations and the attorney’s responsibilities. Oksana can play that role and keep your attorney in check, oversee your attorney’s work, offer a second opinion and prevent problems. Oksana has a beautiful mind and clear, structured thinking. In my case, she framed the legal argument in a way that was powerful, undeniable and would stand up to scrutiny.

Oksana assisted me on couple occasions for business and personal cases. Of all legal help I encountered across DC, MD, NY and CA, I can vouch that this lawyer is the most diligent in following up and finding most precise solution to your matters. It's also important to note that Oksana effectively ...uses her network of specialized attorneys in cases when specific detailed instructions are critical. with this attorney you will get to the bottom of each case and spearhead to the best most thoughtful solution! I highly recommend
