I went to see Alexandra 2 days before I had a scheduled court date. I was extremely nervous about the legal process I was about to go through and had little to no information in how to handle my case; I desperately needed someone knowledgable to advise me. Alexandra was efficient, informative and... by the time I walked out of her office I felt like I was in control of the situation at hand. We discussed a plan and she walked me through my options and the avenues I could pursue. Going through most legal matters is usually an ordeal but Alexandra made it digestible and painless. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone needing legal help in family matters.

I hired Alexandra to help me with a child support modification that had I had attempted to do myself but that ended up backfiring on me, with a reduction in support due to the courts own mistakes and an unexpected request to the judge from my ex regarding my income, (which he granted). I needed help... filing for a motion for reconsideration and had only 4 days to file. I first met with Alexandra for an initial consultation, (of which she did not charge me for), after meeting with two other lawyers. I almost didn't go to our first meeting because I was so exhausted and disappointed with the other attorneys whom hardly looked me in the eye and couldn't even repeat back to me what I was saying. Alexandra immediately looked through my court filings and found 2 mistakes that the court had made (number of children was imputed at 1, not 3 and the percentage of time with their non custodial father was imputed at 37%, when it was actually around 28-29%). We spoke about my third concern, which had to do with my non-taxable income as an apartment manager, and she gave me some sound advice. The whole time she was attentive, informative, and compassionate. I didn't hire her on the spot because I was still trying to pull together funds and budget for hiring an attorney. She told me as I was walking out the door that even if I did not use her services that I could call anytime if I had a legal question I needed help with. I hired her the next day. With only a few days left to file (during a holiday season), she quickly, efficiently, and I should say, beautifully articulated a motion for reconsideration. So then began what we both thought would be a simple motion to correctly adjust child support for my 3 children. Court date was set, see you in 30 days, etc. It took over a year to finally settle. Although the two mistakes made by the court were easily recognized and corrected at our first hearing, the issue of my non-taxable income was stumping the already incompetent judge. Due only to the this judge’s laziness and inability to recognize those legal statues and the ex’s obstinate attitude about providing a modest increase for his 3 children, we had to go back to court 4 times even though we had provided all the laws and statutes concerning my income to the court. Alexandra not only stuck by me the whole time, but her compassionate ferocity for my case did not wane and actually grew stronger. So much so that at times, I felt that I was her only client. Her dedication to her clients comes across not only professionally, but with personal consideration for their very distressing situations. Most importantly, Ms. Lavinsky's understanding of the law is astounding, not just in her ability to write the most astute and beautifully intelligent legal briefs, but her knowledge of the legal system is omnisciently at the tip of her tongue. I fully recognized this at one of our court dates/hearings. We were #21 on the docket, so we had to sit through quite a few hearings before us. As we’re sitting there with the judge fumbling through his post-it noted law books trying to figure out whatever legal statue he had to go by, I leaned over to ask her thoughts. She explained everything before the judge even found the page he was looking for. Although we ended up finally settling, (just to be over with the ridiculous year of continuances), I would not have been able to come close to what Alexandra achieved in my case AND she was even ready to re-file a new OSC for me. This woman is a magnificent attorney, brilliant with her knowledge and compassion and will be a badass firecracker of a lawyer that will be dedicated to you and your case.

Alexandra Lavinsky helped me out in every which way possible. She calmed me down and dealt with my legal situation in such a professional manner. She saved me from alot of grief and emotional stress and made things better immediately! She is my go to lawyer for everything, not only entertainment bu...t for every specialty!

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.

My family law matter was very complex with several issues. I was referred to Alexandra by a former client of hers. When I came to Alexandra I was was extremely stressed! I had sought help from two other Attorneys before coming to her. I stood to lose a lot if not represented by a good attorney. Let m...e just say that during my very first meeting with Alexandra, she had put my mind at complete ease. Alexandra took the time to listen. She asked me questions so that she could better understand my particular situation. It was immediately obvious to me that she was forming a tactical approach toward a resolution as we conversed about my issues. I was in her office a little more than one hour before she had picked up her phone, made two calls and had managed to resolve three of the concerns I had in my case! Of course the remaining issues went before a Judge. Alexandra provided excellent, competent representation to me in court. She was aggressive and I must admit, very creative and even crafty in the way she handled my case. I couldn't believe that with all of the issues I came to her with, she managed to achieve not only a very desirable outcome which was beneficial to all; but she did it having only appeared in court for two hearings. I'm sure that this was due in part to her exceptional negotiating skills which she exercised right away when contacting my ex-wife's Attorney. I was amazed that I actually got a refund of the unused portion of the retainer I paid her. It wasn't a whole lot mind you but, my point is, that she did not send me statements with ridiculous unnecessary charges in an attempt to keep my money. I fully expected to pay a little more than the initial retainer I had given her. This was not the case. Instead, I got a little of my hard earned money back. I'm sure this is not the "norm" for a client to receive a refund of an unused retainer; but this was the case with me. This just goes to show that Alexandra is an honest and caring Attorney who understands people and she exercises good business practices. To her credit, Alexandra really listened and she took whatever time was necessary to understand my situation and my needs. She is an extremely competent, knowledgeable and caring Attorney. She is aggressive when necessary. She was surprisingly accessible to me throughout the entire process. She took the time to return my phone calls when she was not immediately available to speak with me. She kept me informed every step of the way. What more can clients ask of their Attorney? Alexandra got the job done; all the while, keeping me at ease! I would highly recommend her to anyone without any reservation whatsoever! Thank you so very much Alexandra. :-)
