Fastest Resolution, Considerate & Detailed Divorce Expert, Confident Winning Attitude Well Worth My Investment!

It is my pleasure to recommend Gary S Israel to anyone going through a Divorce or Child Support litigation... Because of Gary's knowledge and experience he brought beneficial issues to my attention that I didn't even know about (he didn't miss a thing)... Regarding my initial meeting with Gary, befor...e leaving his office he had my entire case and strategy mapped out and initiated... Gary's very fast, my entire divorce (start to finish 12-weeks) including critical child custody matters never went any further than the mediation... We won everything we wanted and more! Regarding the return on my investment in Gary's very reasonable retainer, considering the value and savings provided to me (after my divorce final judgment) I know it will be quick and worth every cent... Gary is very confident and provided me piece of mind and a comfort level that helped carry me through what I consider a very unfortunate, unwelcome circumstance!

Expensive but good

My experience with Mr. Israel is that he gives personal attention to his clients. He listens and then gives suggestions as to your options, but he always follows up with "It's your call." He was prompt in returning my calls or emails. Once or twice I had to remind him not to rush me and take his time... in explaining things to me as he seemed like he was in a hurry. Maybe he should not insist on doing everything and let an assistant handle things. He does all of his own paperwork and files motions right away. He even let me review the motions first to make sure he was articulating what I needed. Who does that? The only complaint I have in regard to his responsiveness is that I felt like he wanted me to settle when I didn't want too during a meeting. He wasn't listening. I had to remind him that I was paying him and he will do what I say. After we had that talk he was fine.The last thing is he is very expensive. More than any other lawyers I have used for this same case and related cases. He charges by the hour and charges for EVERYTHING! I think I would have preferred a retainer. I have spent double- nearly three retainer fees, but I got the results that I wanted.

A lawyer you can count on

Clearly explained the court procedures and what to expect. Always answered my questions and was always well prepared for hearings and court appearances. Glad I had him on my side. One of the best.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I endorse Gary Israel and refer clients to him because I got to observe him after working at the same firm with him about a year before I opened my own firm. He's no-nonsense, aggressive, and gets the job done. He's experienced and knows what he's doing. He's also a good person and cares about his clients. I will continue to refer divorce matters to him."
