I can’t say thank you enough!

Divorce is ugly and I truly can’t imagine having to go through this process with any other attorney but Oksana and her team. I had been married 24 years and the divorce was financially complicated and emotionally charged. I would get emails forwarded from opposing counsel and remember feeling phy...sically ill. I would email Oksana in tears not understanding how my ex could be so awful. She responded as she ALWAYS did.. "I am not intimidated by their tactics "I can't tell you how many times I clung to those words throughout this process. I never doubted that she always had my best interest in every decision she made. She is truly an advocate and her style of advocacy is exactly what I needed. I don’t think I can express how thankful I am to have her and her team. (From my daughter who is away at school: Thank you for being there for my mom and being her voice when I couldn’t be there).

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!

Competent, Compassionate, and Client Centric. A+ Experience

Frankly, I was a bit skeptical and somewhat guarded when interacting with attorneys. That is, until I worked with Oksana and her team and realized what great could look like. I originally arranged a consultation, which were mostly a series of 'screened interviews', which included two other referra...ls plus Oksana, who I found online). Within the first 5 minutes of discussing my case with Oksana, I knew she was the one-mostly given the overall sense of competence she exuded, coupled with her sound council and 'straight forward-client centric-consultative approach'. Equally as important to me was the underlying feeling of caring, compassion and importance I felt along the way. I always felt like a priority, even though I was by no means the 'largest biller'. Oksana also educated me on the legal process, challenged me when needed, and offered up different perspectives and things to consider that weren't on my radar. Did I mention how accessible and responsive she and her team are?? Seriously, I don't know how she does it or when she sleeps. Her passion for her work is obvious. Do yourself a favor and call her.

Go getter and master in her subject

I am guy and interviewed three attorneys and finally settled on her. In short I can tell you that she is amazing attorney with many traits which will help your case like great negotiator, to the point, know her subject very well, know most of the attorney in Phoenix, reachable and always few steps ah...ead of you and other attorney and don't mind to travel extra on any thing. In addition she is very careful about how your money will be spend and give you upfront visibility. To be honest I can recommend her with out having any second thoughts.....

Russian Blonde Bulldog

Oksana is the Russian Blonde Bulldog you want in your corner. Absolutely no doubt she was sent by God to help me combat my narcissistic ex husband. Oksana will give it to you straight. She will not coddle you or placate, she is real and raw and will give you 100% of her whole self to see you succeed!... She was referred to me by a close friend who was also dealing with an irrational ex husband. I left her office feeling confident after our consult and I knew she was the one who I needed behind me!!! We won our case and I will always recommend her to anyone seeking help as long as she is practicing. If you want a genuine, real person with passion, she's your lawyer!!! I'm so grateful!

"Oksana is an outstanding lawyer and I do not hesitate to recommend her. She is aggressive when she needs to be and unbelievably thorough. She is an adept advocate for her clients and very proficient in court but she also understands the importance of settlement when necessary. She is excellent at analyzing complex issues and also the finances of divorce and family law. I believe she is one of the rising stars in family law. I give her my highest recommendation."

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."
