The. Best.

Divorce is the worst, and when life seemed its darkest, Gary Alembik was an absolute light. Gary made me feel very relaxed and informed always; patiently and expertly explaining everything during the difficult process. Many times, I felt he went completely above and beyond; whether it was an early ...morning phone call or an email just to check in. I am eternally grateful for his time and service. I highly recommend Gary to anyone without reservation.

Excellent Lawyer!

Gary represented me in a modification of custody and modification of child support case. Gary is honest, knowledgeable, ethical, and caring. He has an excellent understanding of the law, is precise, detail oriented, thoroughly prepared with all documentation well in advance so there are no surprise...s, genuinely concerned about his client, is very reliable and has excellent communication and response time. Gary did an amazing job representing me. He was always thinking about what would be in my best interest. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Gary Alembik.

Gary Alembik

Gary Alembik is objective, knowledgeable, and professional. He is compassionate to all parties involved in a family law case. I am very fortunate to have Mr. Alembik represent myself and my children during a difficult time. He demonstrates the upmost care and confidentiality in sensitive situation...s. He is always prepared and extremely organized with pertinent documents. His thorough and diligent nature is an honorable characteristic in the law spectrum. Mr. Alembik is also very conscientious of his fees as well as court required fees, clearly another admirable trait. I would highly recommend Mr. Alembik to any parties in need of a family law attorney.

Highest Reccomendation

Gary Alembik assisted me last fall with a complex divorce. From our first meeting to the final signature of the documents, he was prompt, strategic, thoughtful, helpful and kind. His prices were fair for the level of service provided. Would highly recommend his firm for any divorce or other family ma...tter.

So Thankful That Someone Recommended Gary Alembik!

I first met Gary Alembik in 2013 when I needed an attorney to help me with my divorce. I quickly perceived that Gary was a highly knowledgeable and skilled attorney. He is proficient & articulate both in and out of the courtroom. While he is very focused and intentional about the work at hand, he al...so takes the time to display respect, empathy, kindness and intuitiveness. Gary consistently returned calls and emails in a timely manner, with thorough well composed answers. During the few times he was delayed in responding to an email or phone call, he gave me a courtesy text message or email with an apology and a reason for the delay and a time frame for when he would contact me - I really appreciated that. I was shocked at the amount of paperwork involved in the legal process but he proved to be well organized and he filed all the required court documents on time while keeping me informed and copied during the entire process. He was always on top of the situation regardless of what unexpected event would occur. Gary's thoughtfulness and courteousness are displayed in simple gestures such as pouring his client a cup of coffee or glass of water, opening a door for you, asking how you are - and really caring about what you are saying. I learned that Gary was someone that I could trust. I had complete assurance that he was "on it". He never wasted time. Gary will share in brief, simple small talk, but will effortlessly shift gears to get down to business. He conducts himself with a level of professionalism, quality of character, moral uprightness & integrity that I have not seen in many people. His pursuit to do good and to make a difference in the lives of others extends outside of billable hours. Sound too good to be true? Definitely not. He fought for me and my daughter, he really cared about us and I was very proud to have him for my attorney. Gary Alembik is a truly impressive man, a unique individual and an AWESOME attorney. A++

"I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Alembik on several matters over the years. As you would expect, based upon his experience, he is an outstanding attorney that understands both the legal and personal nature of the cases he handles. What sets him apart from other attorneys, from my perspective, is his true love and passion for the law. I don't think there has ever been a time that I saw him that he did not enlighten me regarding a new case that came out or a new twist being made on an old argument. He truely loves his profession in a way that is refreshing to see. I strongly endorse his work without any reservation."
