Exceptional Family Law Attorney Handling International and Federal Cases

Hardworking, passionate, tenacious, intelligent and kind hearted all at the same time. Having worked with Dina, I can promise anyone who hires her that she will strive to achieve a just result and will impress you beyond your imagination. She was born to do what she does. Not many lawyers have that....

Unmatched expertise in international family law

We all wish we get married once and live happily ever after. Unfortunately, this is not how life works. As an American citizen living abroad, I had no idea what to do when remaining married was no longer an option. Yet, getting a divorce from abroad appeared to be extremely complicated because I was... no longer a GA resident, borders were closed due to coronavirus, and my former spouse was not cooperative in getting the legal paperwork together. Finding a good attorney was also a challenge: all I had was online profiles of a few legal firms. I contacted the Manely firm via their web site form, and received prompt, informative responses. My initial consultation with attorney Khismatulina was very thorough, and I found out immediately that I had a broad range of options. Dina was open and caring; she asked many questions and offered several alternative ways of resolving my specific case. Selecting her as an attorney to represent me was an easy choice, and I am glad I did not hesitate. My legal battle prior to hiring a lawyer lasted two years; Dina and her team resolved it, from signing on to finishing, in about four months - and that with a two-month delay in document submission in my part, and at times of coronavirus closures. Dina looked out for my interests every step of the way. While specifics of the case are probably of no interest to anyone - every case is unique - I can assure that no matter how difficult your case might be, attorney Khismatulina and her team will find the best solution possible for you. Her support team is also wonderful, and they have even found options for online notarizing - something that is of great value when embassies abroad are closed and are not offering notary services. I also had to call the firm a few times, and everyone I talked to was polite and courteous. Overall, this was an excellent experience. Of course, one would probably prefer to not have to deal with legal issues at all, but if you find yourself in need of family counsel, please consider the Manely form and attorney Khismatulina.

She is A Guru in International Law (hired 2017 )

Based on a well designed tactical plan and preparation for An international Parental Kidnapping to Egypt after a marriage lasted for six years with an NPD ( which I discovered on a later stage), as part of the plan by an unlawful spouse, to reallocate me from NY to her comfort zone prior to the 9 mo...nth prior to the kidnapping Incident.

Exceptional Lawyer

Dina is a great attorney. She helped me tremendously in getting a divorce settlement that was very favorable to me. This was my first experience with needing counsel (divorce) but from my conversations with others in the same situation I can say I was well served by having her as my advocate. She ...was available throughout the entire process with excellent insight on what I needed to do at each stage. The entire experience of working with Dina was incredibly positive, I would hire her again for any future legal needs.
