Posted by David | February 03, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Alimony

A difficult case where Miss Pazos performed amazingly.

The Pazos family law firm was hired to handle to represent my mother in law in her divorce. From the beginning, Nadia Pazos worked diligently on this case. With my in laws married for over 30 years, proceeding in this case was met with a lot of conflict and resistance from both sides. Through it all,... Miss Pazos continued to remain a source of support and information for the family members authorized to have information on the case. What made it even more difficult is that my in laws owned their own business and my mother in law was completely shut out financially. Miss Pazos' firm worked with my mother in law in terms of payment plans and affording her excellent courtesy in her payments. Miss Pazos' greatest work on this case came when she was finally able to negotiate a settlement between my in laws, gaining my mother in law an alimony that was a lot higher than she would have gotten had the divorce gone to trial. The concessions she was able to get from my father in law and his attorney was absolutely astonishing. Miss Pazos worked continuously and very hard on this case, but what made her a great attorney was the fact she took time to personally get invested in the case. She truly wanted to get my mother in law the best settlement she could to set her up for the rest of her future. That drive and passion, I believe, helps Pazos when she takes on a case because she will not relent until she feels she has landed the best situation for her client. Miss Pazos is to be commended for the hours, efforts, and overall commitment to my mother in law's divorce. If you are looking for an attorney who will work in your best interest and who will make certain that all stones are unturn in her work, absolutely go meet with Pazos Family Law firm. From my family, we'd like to say a thank you to Miss Pazos for allowing us to close the chapter in a very ugly time for my family. This attorney will be an asset for anyone needing a divorce attorney and she comes highly recommended.

David, Thank you very much for your review. This definitely was a complex case both legally and emotionally, with a range of sensitive issues. I really put my heart into making sure that we took great care of your mother in law and that she would not have to face financial worries or burdens due to this divorce so that she could move on and enjoy her life with her children and grandchildren. For that reason, this review means so much to me. Thank you for taking the time to share your heartfelt feedback. I wish you and your mother in law and entire family all the best! Thanks again, Nadia Nadia
