Separation and Child custody

Zara Zeringue is an amazing lawyer. I was referred to her for my separation from my ex fiance and my child's father. She has helped me out with every aspect and regulation for my child's custody agreement. Zara also gives great advise when coming down to your legal issues and mapping out your agreeme...nt. If I have problems to this day with my ex, she is the first one I call to get advise or how to handle a certain situation. I would recommend her highly to anyone!

Knowledgeable, skilled and compassionate

Zara went out of her way to examine the issues, analyze the problem and explore practical solutions. She is hardworking, taken seriously in the court room, driven and result oriented. I was super pleased with her handling of my case. I would highly recommend her for any legal issue!

highly recommend

I hired Zara as my divorce lawyer. Not only did she ensure that my needs and expectations were met in the filings of our divorce orders, she was my voice of reason when I allowed my emotions to take the lead. All in all she saw what was in the best interest for me and my children in the big picture..., and was able to make it happen.

Review of Zara Zeringue

While I have retained Zara Zeringue for my attorney over the course of the last 4 years, I've come to recognize her expanse of skills and qualities. She is a dedicated hard-worker who is solution driven with an open mind. Ms. Zeringue brings rational thought and core values that allow her to genera...te fair and balanced decisions that are backed with conviction. She is very convincing and most importantly, arriving at the right conclusion before everyone else. Should Zara have the ambition, I'm sure she possesses the skills, work-ethic and patience to be an outstanding mediator.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
