A Good Choice

Having been frustrated with my previous attorney, Rona Gura came HIGHLY recommended to me. And I am glad she did. She is not only professional and courteous, but she takes the time to explain all aspects of the negotiation with her adversary. Rona is 180 degrees from where I was. She returns p...hone calls and emails in a timely manner. And will go that extra mile to make sure all documents have been reviewed by me prior to submission. If you are in search of fair representation, look no further.

Satisfied Customer

Rona represented me in my settlement agreement . She was fantastic. Knowledgeable, energetic, always willing to give me sound advice. The best thing about the whole process was having Rona on my side.

Without hesitation, the only attorney i would ever call or refer my friends and family to

Legal help is expensive, that goes without saying. Matrimonial law is easily the most complex, gut wrenching, emotional, and exhausting representation there is. As a former (thank you Rona!) client, i can honestly say while your going through this type of situation, it seems like you will never see... the end of the tunnel. You NEED an attorney as good as Rona, who is sensitive and sensible regarding the human side of litigation and who will protect and defend you with her knowledge and common sense in a court of law. There are a lot of sharks and adversarial lawyers out there who will put their ego and billable hours ahead of what's best for you. Rona has ALWAYS been there to advise the pros and cons of any decision or action that will happen ( and some that you would never expect to happen ) Her integrity and expertise made the difference for me during my divorce. Yes, legal help is expensive, but it is money well spent when you have a professional attorney fighting for you... like Rona

Outstanding Results Respected by her Peers

I am a partner at a large law firm practicing corporate litigation who from time to time has client's ask-- who would you recommend for my divorce, custody or family law matter? Well over the years I have recommended many attorneys but the one that my client's keep telling me about over and over ag...ain is Rona Gura. She is caring and understanding with an eye towards efficient results. Whether it is at the negotiating table or in the courtroom, the respect bestowed on her by her fellow attorneys and the judges before whom she practices is clear. The devotion to her clients admirable. But the one thing that stands out is the loyalty of her clients. Fighting in the trenches will do that to people. If you want someone who other attorneys think well enough to refer their best clients too-- then you want Rona Gura.

Good Lawyer

I retained Ms. Gura and her firm for my child custody proceeding and they got me sole custody of my kids. They got me everything I needed in an efficient way. She and her partner explained to me everything that was occurring every step of the way. Her fees were fair and my ex and I are in a much bett...er place because I listened to her expert advice. I have seen the review posted by the previous poster on other websites. Clearly, he knows how to cut and paste as he is continually posting the exact same trash on other websites. .But, just as clearly, he does not know how to pay for the services he is provided. Since, as the poster admitted, Ms. Gura sued him for her fees and won then a judge must have decided that the fees were well earned. He mentions that he's an educator, I wonder whether he would continue teaching if he was not be paid for his services. Definitely hire Ms. Gura and her firm. I am so happy did.
