The Best! She Knows What is Best for Her Client

Vera, returned my call the same day I called her office and left a message for her. I was unable to discern for myself what was in my best interest, but Vera knew exactly what I would need to move forward with my life. Vera managed every aspect of my divorce beautifully. Thank you, Vera, for looking ...out for me.

Great Experience

I hired Vera for my lenghtly divorce. Back in 2011. I have since consulted with her on a couple of different locations. When things arise post divorce. I can always get a hold of her, she always responds in an expedited manner. And I appreciate everything she has done for me. If you need advice,... should retain her services, or anything else in family matters. Vera is the one for you!

Very dissapointing choice

BEVARE OF THIS LAWER !!!!! After initial bragging how great she is and putting lot of dirt on opposing counsel she produced average results . This Lawyer FAIL TO NOTIFY me about date and time of my divorce trial . I was contacted by text message by my now former wife telling me how come am not presen...t in court room where they waiting on me with judge . I have called Vera's office to inquire what's going on and why I was no notify . Due this FAIL I was ordered by judge to pay my ex wife's lawyer fees for 3 H waiting time(over 1600$) and later i have found out that even my own lawyer who should protect my interests CHARGED me money for her own FAILURE !!!! Vera even told judge that it was MY FAULT I have not been there !!!!!! After paying many thousands of dollars to Vera she did not even have enough decency to acknowledge that she was in wrong and compensate me for it. I don't care about the money but simple : Sorry it was my fault ! will be at that time sufficient . I'm very disappointed I have hired this lawyer

English is not this person's first language. Had this former client come in to prepare for trial two weeks before and then he says that he did not know when his trial was being held. We have implemented a new procedure to prevent such claims in the future. We got him a great result--he doesn't tell you that he's getting more money coming in from the ex than he has to pay out. We did such a great job that the other side tried to get the judge to reconsider and change the ruling. We won that one, too. Maybe that's why we got "excellent" scores from him in three out of four categories--or maybe it's because of the language issue. Can't please all the people all the time.

Best money I ever spent!!

Vera helped me through a lengthy divorce process with an ex who was as spiteful as could be. Vera was compassionate and always gave me options before choosing which avenue to pursue and her staff was absolutely amazing!! Chris was on top of everything and kept in constant contact over the ever-chan...ging issues. Kim was amazing with e-mailing reminders of upcoming dates for hearings, etc... Vera and her staff were the epitome of the term professional and they truly made me feel like it was a family. If you are looking for a pit bull of an attorney who is incredible at her job, you cannot go wrong with Vera!!

Kind, Compassionate, and the Best in the Business

Vera and her Entire staff are some of the very Best in their field. I was going through a Very difficult divorce, and my Ex was being anything but "Civil." Like many people going through divorce, you don't know what to expect. Vera and her staff were VERY Welcoming into their office, and they were ...there for me Every single step of the way. They helped me understand what my rights were, and what to expect during the entire process. Vera explains everything as it is. Most importantly, she does not sugar coat things, and just tell you what You "Want" to hear. They looked out for my best interest, and most importantly, the best interest of my children; regardless of what my Ex thought she was "Entitled" to. Many times during the process I would have questions for Vera, and no matter the question, she would Always find time to answer them. Vera and her staff were VERY Responsive! Two separate occasions I had a question late at night...I emailed Vera, expecting a response later the next day, was I wrong. Vera responded back to me that same evening, in less than an hour!! If Anyone is looking for the Best Divorce Lawyer, look no further... I would ABSOLUTELY 100% recommend Vera and her team, with No hesitation at all!!
