One Awesome Superhero & Angel

As we all know, divorce is one of the most horrible, ugly, painful frightening times of your life. You hope you will be fortunate enough to find the right fit and support you with every ounce of breath for the fight and fear of your life. I interviewed several attorneys. I was so fortunate that my di...vorce therapist recommended I interview one more. The day I met Oksana I knew she was THE ONE. Smart, savvy, knowledgeable in not only her field but the whys & how’s. A WIZ with the numbers and a mind & memory like a steel trap. She exceeds expectations with every step. And she is ALWAYS a thought process ahead. She can combat any argument presented to her. She is absolutely fearless. And importantly, realistic. She will always be honest, especially when it’s most important you know what really can and cannot be accomplished. Oksana will fight to the very bitter end and “not leave a nickel” on the table, as she says, until she is satisfied. She is also realistic and lets you know what you can win or do. Also SO important, she and Dan, her paralegal, are ALWAYS responsive. After the divorce, I have sent a couple of personal notes to Oksana. I share them to further incapsulate for you this truly very amazing woman: 8/2022: My Dearest Oxy, You never know when in life you are going to meet your superheroes or in what form they will come. A parent, a teacher, or an attorney. I knew months ago I had met one of the biggest Superhero’s of my life. An educator, a strategist, an incredibly intelligent driven honest woman, a collaborator, a straight shooter, a risk taker, a support system, an advocate, a pit bull, a supporter, a rock, a voice of reason, a voice of hope, a voice of reality and a voice that made me laugh when I needed it. My superhero is beautiful, smart, funny, patient, adventurous, artistic, caring and kind. You are an incredible force that has been there for me day or night in my darkest days, always ready to fight for me another day. I can never thank you enough for all that you have done for me, how much it has meant and for being my Superhero. You will forever be in my heart. Debbie Today is March 8th, 2023. International Women’s Day And today as I reflect I sent her the following: One year ago today was a day that will touch my life forever. A beautiful strong caring supportive most incredible angel went out of her way to deliver a beautiful basket of tulips to a woman who was frightened, hurt, bullied and lost. This angel gave me strength, hope, caring, honesty, peace and power to get through and overcome the biggest challenge I had yet faced in life. I can never describe enough to her the impact she made on my life that day, and sooooo many other days. Making me feel I was strong, important, would survive and someday, life would be good again. As the months have gone on, she was right. I try to capture every opportunity I am given as I navigate each new day. Oxy, my angel, a mentor, a dragon slayer, a confidant, a beautiful woman with a kind heart who with a basket of flowers and the gift of her time to support another woman, impacted and positively changed the course of my life. Happy International Women’s Day With love, Debbie And her positivity and power allow me to pursue the best of each day moving forward.

Seamless process start to finish

Oksana and Dan were both so compassionate, and competent. They made this process as easy as possible, and I felt very well taken care of and informed each step of the way. I was very pleased with the outcome and how quickly they were able to move everything along. Highly recommend!

You can’t find a better Attorney!

Oksana is an incredible attorney: she overdelivers on everything. She has your back. She’s one step ahead in the case at all times. I can’t tell you the amount of stress from which she saved me and the level of safety she created in the process. I felt heard, understood and supported 1000% of the tim...e! There are many divorce attorneys, but with Oksana you get a partner in your case who’s winning for your future!

Posted by D. Lucas | December 13, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

A Lawyer who understands Father's Rights

I've consulted directly with Oksana and hired her for preliminary information needed for my child support case. Oksana is the only lawyer that I've been comfortable with in my entire process. She understands my rights as a father and how family court views fathers. What I appreciate most about Oksana... is her responsiveness. It never mattered how many cases or trials she had in a day or if it was late at night, she always responded to any inquiry for me, and even if she didn't respond same day, it was the next day. I also appreciated her realistic approach to my case and the circumstances. She spoke to me in complete direct manner, but also both an understanding and respective manner in all of our interactions. What I've learned, as a father seeking custody, is that it is significantly important to get the right lawyer at the beginning of your case. Oksana is the best lawyer I've had when it comes to Father's Rights.

Strong advocate! She changed my life.

Many people wonder if it is worth the extra expense to hire an attorney or whether they could do it on their own. I pondered that for months thinking that my ex and I could just come to a swift and amicable agreement. I am a former military guy who listened to stories on how badly divorces went from... fellow servicemen once they got into court. I was terrified about what was about to ensue. She forced my hand when she hired an attorney without my knowledge and I received documents that might as well have been written in a different language. I hired Oksana immediately after hearing a great recommendation and also talking to her and explaining my situation. That decision changed my life in the best way possible. My marriage was ending with children and a good amount of assets involved. Juggling extra work due to manning shortages from Covid, coordinating time that I could be with my children, selling a house, and moving kept me pretty busy. There was no way I could take on the additional task of learning family law and preparing for court. Oksana took my case and hit the ground running. She is a genius at what she does. She is very organized and crunched the numbers and produced spreadsheets outlining various scenarios in preparation for mediation. She kept in constant contact with me and was very quick to answer any questions or concerns that I had. She put my mind at ease so I could focus on everything else. Going through a divorce is emotionally devastating. It’s difficult to think clearly most of the time. She kept me grounded and opened my eyes to reality. She found things to help my case that I would have never thought of. When the time came for mediation, she fought for me as if it were her own livelihood on the line. The outcome was better than I could have ever imagined. I would recommend her to anyone seeking an attorney and I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Family lawyer | Aug 02

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Oksana has experience and knowledge greatly beyond her years of practice. I had a divorce case with Oksana that involved numerous complex assets. When a case involves complex assets there is always the risk of the other lawyer not understanding the assets which complicates and drags out the case. However, it was due to Oksana's quick understanding of the assets that led to a quick and friendly settlement for the parties. This saved both clients money, emotion, and time. Oksana has the technical skills, litigation skills, and settlement skills to handle complex family law cases. I would willingly refer people to Oksana for their family law matters. I highly endorse her."
