Hiring Dmitriy Changed Everything

Court costs time and money. We thought we could handle our custody dispute on our own—after all, we researched the law, understood our rights, and followed the process. Twelve hours of research later, we realized we couldn’t. Then came the attorney search. Six hours of comparing websites and readi...ng reviews. $600 and four hours in consultations. We finally picked one. (Not Dmitriy.) They said all the right things: “This is an easy case.” “Here’s what to do until the first hearing.” “We’ve got this.” We felt relieved. But reality hit hard. Being out of jurisdiction meant every hearing required missing work, a seven-hour drive, and a hotel stay. Inconvenient, yes—but we were ready to fight. Instead, we faced a nightmare. Over a year later, nothing had moved. Emails and calls were ignored. Major decisions were made without our consent—ones that actively hurt our case. Hearings were postponed without our knowledge. Twice, the attorney showed they didn’t even know the basics of our situation. One moment was especially jaw-dropping. They asked, “Why did you do X, Y, Z?”—to which we had to remind them, “You told us to.” The amount of time and money we lost is painful to think about. We finally fired them and hired Dmitriy. By then, we were traumatized by the court process, with a critical hearing just three weeks away. Dmitriy and his team immediately turned things around. He PERSONALLY answered every email and call—though we barely needed to reach out, because he kept us informed before we even had questions. HE knew every detail of our case. HE remembered things we’d forgotten. Dmitriy: “Remember that text you sent months ago where you said X, Y, Z and she replied A, B, and C?” Us: “Uh… no.” Dmitriy: “Don’t worry, I do—and it proves 1, 2, 3.” He laid out clear options for every decision, navigated the mess our previous attorney left, and crafted both short- and long-term strategies. It was like a “Choose Your Own Adventure” book, except every choice led to: A win A likely win A resolution we were happy with What more could we ask for? I Feel for YOU Right Now. If you’re reading this, you’re at the start of a tough journey. Whether you’re fighting for change, protecting your rights, or seeking what’s best for your family, it’s exhausting. You might feel scared, mad, confused, overwhelmed, or hopeless. We did, too. But that weight lifts the moment you make a choice. Hope replaces fear. That’s what Dmitriy did for us, and he can do it for you. Not only did he make us feel better—he got results. There are many attorneys who will fight for your business, but few who will fight for you. Dmitriy is one of the few who won’t stop until you get the best possible outcome. We can vouch for that.

My marriage may be over, but my sanity has returned, and I have hope, and I have peace, but I never thought I could have.

When hiring an attorney, it’s a very scary step. You have to trust a complete stranger to protect, to listen and to do what is best for you. Dmitriy and his team went above and beyond to do just that. Every email, every interaction was intentional with a purpose, a plan based on what I wanted. There... were times when I thought I should make a different change from the original plan, but Dmitriy quickly steered me back to why he was directing the conversations with my EX’s attorney a certain way. It was to ultimately protect me. From our very first encounter, I knew he was the right person to hire as my divorce attorney. On top of that he removed all the stress that I had been carrying and he put it on his shoulders. Oy! This was worth it’s weight in gold. I will be forever grateful for getting my life back as I move forward with hope. And just for the record, there really are good attorneys out there that really do care about people.

Great Experience

I received excellent service and assistance from Dmitriy and his office. The office was responsive and caring on all of our needs. Although I did not want to pursue more, Dmitriy was relentless in advising me of all the risks and exposure I had in my case. He and his office is very thorough and detai...led and I would recommend him to any individual going through a divorce.

Thorough and Considerate

After multiple (bad) consultations with various firms, I happened to get in touch with Dmitriy’s office and immediately knew they were the ones I wanted to handle my case. Coming in, I knew nothing about the court system or what to expect with my custody case and having Dmitriy and Henry on my side w...as truly a blessing. Dmitriy was always very prompt in his responses, thorough with his explanations, relentless towards opposing council, and yet still very aware and considerate to make sure I was comfortable every step of the way because of course it’s still a heavy conversation. Dmitriy and his team will always be my recommendation for any family law needs.

The attorney you need on your side

Dmitriy came in mid stream in a very complicated divorce/custody battle. He was the third attorney, the youngest, and by the very best. He came in a mess. I was given extremely poor legal advice, another attorney withdrew from my case, I was in need of an attorney who would fight for me and my chi...ldren. He had to overcome the poor attorneys who came before him. He was able to get me the very best custody arrangement given the circumstances he had to overcome. He gave excellent arguments to opposing counsel, and still maintained excellent rapport will the guardian and opposing counsel. Beyond that, he truly cared. I knew I was never just another case, but he was concerned about what was best for my children and I.
