Efficient and Effective

I hired Natalya for custody and child/spousal support matters and quickly learned she was a straightforward and reliable no-nonsense professional. Natalya ensures I know all the possible outcomes while providing a level of confidence I always appreciate when placing my trust in her expertise. That... said, she tells me what I need to hear, not just what I want to hear. She shares valuable insight into the legal processes at play and educates her clients. Then, she proves her worth in the courtroom. Her presence is grounded, fair, and graceful, earning her a great deal of respect by those who know her work. In my case, it became clear that success is no stranger to Natalya. I am grateful for her diligence and dedication to victory while keeping me grounded in reality. Needless to say, when the odds were stacked heavily against me, she prevailed and earned us major wins time and time again. Natalya will remain my family lawyer and I highly recommend her services to anyone in need.

Hire this lawyer

Natalya Dennett is a fighter that you NEED on your side. I was dealing with a very complicated and difficult child custody case and risked losing all visitation AND paying thousands of dollars in back pay as well as hundreds of dollars in child support payments every month. Not only would that be abs...olutely devastating to my family's financial situation, but more importantly, I would lose my loving daughter and not be able to see her again. I've gone to sleep countless nights crying myself to sleep, worried sick. Then I hired Natalya. There are no words to describe the attention to detail and care that this person brings to the table. She didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, but what I needed to hear and gave a realistic breakdown of every possible situation and how it might unfold in court. I trusted my lawyer and boy did she deliver. Natalya made sure that I didn't lose any more visitation and I didn't have to pay any child support. Of course, some things have to be negotiated down, but it was by far the BEST outcome for the situation I was facing. Natalya is a caring, compassionate human being and a ferocious fighter that will leave no stone unturned. Hire her.

Third Time's a Charm

I have been a client of Ms. Dennett since February 2021 and since then, she has gone above and beyond what any attorney before her ever did for my family. She understood the highly contentious nature of the situation early on and has been extremely proactive in attempting to find cost-effective and l...ogical solutions. When it seems as if the legal issues will never end, Ms. Dennett is always there to offer clarity and support and eager to find a resolutions that will benefit the children affected. She has been there for custody/visitation, support, show causes, appeals, and divorce. She works tirelessly to ensure that her client is in the best possible hands and when she is in the court room, she is unstoppable. While I do not hope for never ending litigation, I will always come back to Ms. Dennett if the need arises.

The Best of the Best

Hiring Mrs. Denette was one of the best decisions we have made. Going to court is a stressful ordeal, on a number of levels. Mrs. Denettes level of knowledge and confidence in and outside the court is supreme! We endured a case where my husband didn't get to see his children for 3 years due to par...ental alienation, and soon after retaining her services, everything changed. She fought for what was best for the children involved, and offered the sincerest guidance along the way. One thing I will offer to those reading this, going into a custody case, hire her and do everything she asks you to do. At times it's hard to keep emotions cool, calm and collected, nd during those times, Mrs. Denette was compassionate and essentially took on the role as a counselor in times that were needed. We could go on and on about our grateful experiences simply because she is the best in our eyes. She will treat your case as her own and always give you her HONEST opinion.
