I've never had a more positive experience with a lawyer. Alexandra was the fourth person I interviewed for my family law case and was by far the most attentive, respectful, knowledgeable and genuine. She made me feel very at ease, heard and taken care of while also exhibiting supreme strength of ch...aracter and integrity. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Alexandra Lavinsky during our initial consultation. From the moment the conversation began, she exhibited an unprofessional and hostile demeanor. Rather than offering guidance or support, she immediately resorted to yelling and berating me simply becau...se she did not agree with my question regarding how the court might recognize the mother as a biological parent in a case involving an egg donor. Instead of providing thoughtful legal insight, she allowed her personal opinions to dictate the interaction. When I attempted to clarify my question and explain that I was solely interested in understanding whether "biological parent" was the correct term in this situation, rather than kindly explaining it to me, she continued to attack me, stated that she didn't think we could work together, and abruptly hung up on me—without even giving me a chance to respond or apologize for any misunderstanding. This behavior was not only unacceptable but completely unprofessional for someone in the legal profession. I would not recommend her services to anyone seeking compassionate, objective, or competent legal representation.

Two main problems for a post divorce motion that I am filing. (1) prior to hiring her we discussed startegy of pro-per versus having her represent me at hearing. We decided I would go pro-per and at the day of the hearing she would be upstairs in cafeteria and if the case didnt go well, I'd tell th...e judge before it ended that I didnt feel comfortable and wanted to have an atorney. In fact this was so important to me that we wrote this into her engagement letter. A few months later now ready to file the motion and she tells me she was just joking and it doesnt work like that and either I need to have her identified as lawyer prior to hearing or go pro-per. That was after I paid her $16,000. (2) the bills seem to have been padded. Much of the billing was for 3 sets of redline changes I submitted after each revision draft. (a) if you look at the amount of changes I submitted therre is now way that review of those and relevant revision comes even close to the hours billed for those projects, and (b) she told me that the paralegal's time is not charged for. for 2 of those revisions it appears only the paralegal worked on them. i have emails from the paralegal stating that Alexandra did not review the changes. Yet there is heaving billing for those revisions from Alexandra.
