Highly recommended....Stuart C. Axilbund

Mr. Axilbund represented me for a divorce with contested issues concerning custody, marital assets, and finances. He took the lead on filing all necessary documents and worked with me in responding to complaints and filing counter complaints. I am able to highly recommend the services of Stuart Axi...bund because I was greatly satisfied in my interactions with Mr. Axilbund. His professionalism, knowledge of the law, empathy to my situation, and personable nature make it easy to write a positive review of his services. Mr. Axilbund was up front in billing, often coming up with self-help options to save on unnecessary fees and assisted with keeping our conversations on scope to limit my overhead. My concerns were addressed in a timely manner and answered to my satisfaction. If I have a need for services in the future, Mr. Axilbund would be my first call. If you are in need of lawyer services I would suggest that he be your first call as well.

Excellent! Will always call!

Mr. Axilbund was the first lawyer I ever needed. He was very knowledgeable about my child custody and is still currently working/helping with my child support. Anytime I would email him he was always very quick to response. I will most defiantly call him in the future in ever needed again.

Thank you Stuart

He is one of the best attornys I've had the opportunity to be represented by. Very respectful and very attentive. He made me feel secure and gave me the reassurance I needed while fighting my case. I highly recommend to anyone going through a custody battle.

Mr Axilbund divorce case

Mr.Axilbund handled my divorce case. The process was not finalized since I moved abroad. However my experience with the way he handled my case was very positive. He was prepared and thorough, with intelligent approach, creative with good strategical thinking. I truly appreciated that he was obje...ctive and pragmatic, at the same time supportive and assertive, very professional. He prepared my case so that it would reflect the reality including psychological/human aspects and I gained confidence in him and through him in positive resolution with least posssible damage.

divorce/separation

Sturat Axilbund is without hesitation the PREMIER ATTORNEY to handle your divorce/separation. He is very caring, professional, efficient and truely believes in his client. He personally reads every document and item you will submit. He was truly prepared during the deposition, trial and follow-up. Hi...s fees are extremely reasonable. He is most sensitive to your concerns and the concerns of your children. He responds to all inquiries (I had many) within 24 hours, most times within the hour, if feasible. He will not intimidate you, force you to make decisions and weighs all options. You are never "out of the loop" because every step of the process is thoroughly communicated to a level of understanding for the client. His office is in an ideal location. His phone calls are promptly received and response time is appropriate. He even phoned me when he would be away for a family emergency (death), so I never felt out of touch with my attorney. Fees/payment is not the driving force during the process. His fees are reasonable, given the amount of time and preparation he provides. I had two other attorneys and this was not received as kindly as Stuart. He is a devoted family man, husband and father and that will be evident in how he responds to the needs/concerns of you and your family members. He respects his client, believes in their case and is very sensitive to the many circumstances within your divorce proceedings. I would, without hesitation recommend Stuart to handle your case. Nothing is impossible when your divorce is handled with the grace and professionalism of Stuart Axilbund!

"Stuart is one of my "go to" family lawyers - clients always indicate that he is helpful, nice (despite the client's condition - usually going through a tough divorce), responsive, and gives excellent advice. Stuart is always upbeat and in good spirits, despite practicing in this area - which in my view is the hardest legal area to practice in. I recommend him unconditionally. / mike oliver"
