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.

Happy Client

Rona was compassionate from the moment I called her to tell her what I needed, until even the moments after my request was completed. I always felt that she was thorough, and out for my best interest. She was fair when it came to what the other party requested, while making sure that I was taken car...e of. She made me feel comfortable at all times, and best of all, she was human. She was not robotic with me, and had lots of patience. Rona came recommended to me by my dad's friend, and I would recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer in her area of expertise.

Greatfull client

No one ever expects to be in a position of having to defend themselves from your spouse of 30 years, however, having gone through this, I can tell you that it is a rollercoaster of emotions and worries. being the working spouse on this case I found myself concerned over the legal cost as well as t...he need to have the best representation possible. Rona Gura and the team where there at every step of this two year long process. Rona was sensitive to my request, always responded on time and kept me informed at every turn and twist. I honestly and whole heartily believe that Rona Gura was and is the best choice for matrimonial defense your money can buy. There will be hard choices and Rona will not hold punches back or sugar coat any issue but you will be properly informed to make decisions. I would recommend Rona Gura, and the team, to anyone that would have the misfortune of going through a similar situation.

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.
