A+ Professional

My daughter and I retained the services of Diana Baskind. Ms Baskind was successful in presenting to the Court that my two autistic grandchildren required consistency and structure to succeed in school and their social environments. During trial, Ms Baskind presented the facts of our case in a prepar...ed, fluent and professional manner. It was perceptible that the Court enjoyed Ms Baskind's presentation of evidence and her ability to address the Court's questions without hesitation and on point. Family law matters are particularly difficult when considering the emotional struggles involved. Ms. Baskind listened patiently and understood our concerns, while remaining objective and forthright. I highly recommend Ms Baskind and, without any pause, encourage those seeking legal representation to contact her.

A true professional

My late father practiced law in the Valley for 30 years. As a consequence, I knew better than not to seek counsel to represent me in a Modification of Child Custody/Parenting Time and Child Support matter, sought by my ex-husband. Fortunately, I found Diana Baskind - after interviewing several lawye...rs. At the outset, I found Diana to be up-front, not boastful or promising things I wanted to hear. Instead, Diana's approach was to confirm how the Courts usually view my particular circumstances under the law -- eight years post-divorce and two children with disabilities. At trial, I found Diana to be very prepared and professional. It was clear during trial that the Court favored her pre-trial work including pleadings, demeanor, preparedness and the handling of testimony given by my ex-husband and myself. Prior to trial, Diana worked with me to confirm my testimony, voluminous facts, medical records and exhibits. Needless to say, we were victorious at trial and without Diana this would not have been possible. Without any reluctance, I highly recommend Diana for anyone seeking legal representation in family law. I applaud Diana for listening endlessly to my concerns and stories relating to my ex-husband. She hand-held me through the emotional year long process with patience and friendship.

Diana Baskind

I found Mrs. Baskind to be well-versed in family law, and was an extremely personable attorney to work with. She is attentive to your needs as an individual client and is aware of your situation in its entirety. Her friendly demeanor and attention to using funds responsibly is just another reason to ...retain her legal services.
