Thoughtful and Thankful

I am so very thankful to have met Gary and appreciative of the approach that he uses to navigate very difficult discussions. Gary Alembik has a mastery of Family Law from his time as a judge and utilizes this to help all sides drive to a resolution. He is thoughtful about his recommendations and dili...gent in his preperation. He makes you feel like you are his only client and when he is engaged you have his full attention. He is well respected by his peers and I think that benefits clients when he represents them. Thank-you for helping me through such a challenging time. I highly recommend Gary Alembik and appreciate him as a incredible lawyer but even a better human being.

Competent. Smart. Reassuring. Call him!

I chose Gary to handle my divorce; the opposing lawyer represented the Petitioner, Gary represented me as the Respondent. I hired Gary because he impressed me as being unusually knowledgeable about the process details--not just the big picture--and more important, he is calm. As a former family court... judge and now an mediator and family law attorney, I was confident he'd already experienced whatever my case would bring. I was right as he knew what to watch out for and recognized immediately what was missing from the opposing lawyer's documents. Between July and September, and prior to hiring Gary, I'd reviewed four different iterations of opposing counsel's error-filled documents. Given the dozens of repeated grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors, not to mention content errors referencing property not owned, proposed visitation schedules for 2014, and directions for filing 2016 tax returns (even though it was 2018!), I was very worried about what legal issues opposing counsel had wrong as well. Gary thoroughly reviewed the 5th version of drafts and immediately noticed opposing counsel's failure to draft the required Child Support Addendum; the incorrect format for the Settlement Agreement, multiple unnecessary details in the Parenting Plan; and the Plaintiff's improperly completed Child Support Worksheets. Gary patientily explained each step of the process so I'd know what to expect and sadly had to similarly "instruct", or perhaps remind, opposing counsel as well. Gary caught a critical error in the opposing counsel's Request for Judgement on Pleadings that contradicted all the documents already filed and would've delayed the ruling. Gary's experience and intellect was exactly what I needed to safeguard myself from the opposing counsel's continuous inattention to detail and seemingly willingness to file false documents as demonstrated by his failure to correct errors from version to version. This was an uncontested divorce (no court time) so while I cannot speak to Gary's courtroom abilities, I'm certain based on the time and thoroughness he did provide, he would have delivered exactly what was needed during a hearing. I've already asked Gary if I may refer him if asked and am very grateful to the person who referred me to him!

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.

Highly recommend

Gary Alembik demonstrated tremendous expertise in my ongoing child custody case. I have used Mr. Alembik over a period of 10 years. I can only say positive things. My daughter is in my custody today because of him. I was able to take her out of state amongst many other issues. He handled everyth...ing with confidence and integrity. I highly recommend Mr. Alembik for any families needs. I would not Trust my childs future to any other attorney.
