The Right Choice During a Difficult Time

Hiring a lawyer is one of those things you always hope you will not need to do, so when the day came that I needed one I consulted with Nupur after finding her here on Avvo. Nupur helped explain the process that was so foreign to me in a way that helped me understand and make it through to the other ...side in a much better place. I was able to speak with Nupur through email, calls, and in person whenever necessary and review documentation as it was being drafted. Nupur was very understanding and always listened to help accommodate my needs as best she could, such as organizing multi-party conferences. And Nupur isn't alone, the staff in the office were always courteous whenever I had questions. If you're here reading this review, you're likely going through a difficult time yourself. Nupur is an commendable choice to get you through it.

Child Custody

Ms. Bal will forever hold a place in our lives as someone that cared as much about our grandson as if he were her own. She is a compassionate listener, abundantly knowledgeable, holds to a moral high ground and is always honest in her perception of how the facts are going to play out in court. She ...and her staff went above and beyond and I only wish that there was a higher rating than excellent.

She’s Excellent!

She is a no joke attorney! She took me on as a client to help me with a custody battle and was patient and would explain something to me if I didn’t understand it!! I hope that I won’t ever need her for anything again but if I do she’ll be the lady that I call!

Excellent Divorce Attorney

After 31 years of marriage, I had a nasty contested divorce case that lasted over 7 years. I had two lawyers before I retained Ms. Nupur Bal; they did not do much in my case, especially my 2nd lawyer who cost me thousands of dollars and all I got was a lot of stress and some emails for a whole year. ... That lawyer made no progress. Once I hired Nupur, the whole case started to be on the right track. She is exceptionally professional and hard working. She focused on my case and targeted finishing this protracted case. I spent a year and a half with Nupur because of my difficult ex-husband who did not comply with discovery, subpoenas, or even multiple court orders. Nupur was patient and was able to deal with all the obstacles in my case. She knew how to handle opposing counsel, even when my ex-husband hired another new attorney at the last minute. Nupur identified areas of my case that needed court intervention and she was ready to file motions and go to court. She was well prepared in court, which I believe made a lasting impact on the judge. She also knew when to negotiate and mediate certain other aspects outside of court. She is truly an excellent attorney who is honest and trustworthy. She is wise in her advocacy and courteous in her communications whether it was with opposing counsel, the judge, or with me. She dealt with my case as if I am a member of her family. She is tough when it comes to advocating on behalf of her client and she is equally as sweet and gentle when it came to communicating with me. This was comforting to me as I went through this difficult ordeal. I want to thank her deeply, as well as her paralegal, Dottie Stebbings, and the rest of their staff. I highly recommend Nupur Bal.

Impressive and a pleasure to work with

My first divorce attorney had health problems and I was looking for alternate representation when I met Ms. Bal. It was a very smooth transition, Ms. Bal's office contacted my previous attorney and all the records were transferred without any hassle for me. In representing me Ms. Bal was 100% profess...ional, always well prepared and on top of her game. She was very clear in her recommendations and when I did the opposite of what she recommended I had the exact undesirable results that she had predicted. So I learned to trust her and listen to her. In the emotional whirlwind that is a divorce she was a calming presence, firm and undeterred. She was quick and efficient, looking at the bill I always wondered how she got so much done in so little time.
