A great lawyer

I wanted a lawyer who would help me through this most difficult time. Fortunately I found Rona Gura. I had interviewed a few before her and knew she was the one I needed. Rona did exactly as she promised-no complications or huge fees. She and her staff were compassionate and very, very patient with... me. All my questions were answered and my calls and emails were returned promptly. She saved me from myself. I was angry and wanted more than my husband wanted to give me. Rona explained that we could try but it would be costly and nothing was guaranteed. I'm so glad I listened to her. I got what I needed without acrimony or needless expense. I would, without reservation, recommend her.

Bad Reviews Don't Make Sense to Me

I hired Rona after reading some of the bad reviews here. I specifically asked Rona about those reviews in my consultation and her answer really impressed me. First she told me that some of them appear to be made up, as she had no idea who the person was, might be the angry ex-spouse of her former cli...ents. As for a review from a real former client, she told me that she cannot comment about a client or former client because she is still bound by privilege. I knew then that she would be the right lawyer for me, one I could trust with everything I needed to tell her, to do the right thing for me and bill me fairly. And she didn't disappoint. No one gets everything they want in a divorce but Rona listened to what was important to me and made those issues a priority. I also saw the amount my husband was billed for our divorce and it was double the amount she billed me. Rona offers a free consultation. Definitely go see her. You’ll be glad you did.

Excellent Attorney

Rona represented me in a divorce with a lot of complicated issues. She was compassionate and I always felt she had my best interest in mind. She kept me informed of the progress in the case and responded in a very genuine manner to a number of scary developments I encountered along the way. I was... very pleased with the outcome and timing of the resolution of the case. I can now move forward and put that chapter of my life behind me.

Could not have made it through a rough time without Rona by my side

I was referred to Rona by other lawyers and thank goodness I found her. I hired her for both my child support and custody/visitation issues. I would not have made it through this rough time without her as my lawyer, her knowledge and assistance was priceless in my situation. Rona is extremely thorou...gh and prepares you for the court hearings. The court system takes longer in some cases/hearings but Rona is extremely knowledgeable and professional. Don't hesitate to contact her or her office for a consultation.

Dedicated and Smart

Ms. Gura represented me in my divorce proceedings. The proceedings were protracted and hard fought. She was excellent. Her eye was always on the practical, cost effective approach in order to get me one step closer to settlement before trial. Ms. Gura acted as my advocate and counselor in the tru...e sense of the word. Her office staff is, likewise, diligent and super helpful. We were able to avoid a trial and move on with our lives. She is terrific.
