I retained Alexandra as a substitution in my forever on going case, which has been absolutely ridiculous because my ex is fighting over $450 a month in support yet has given his attorney Roger Rombro $150,000 in fees. Rombro had something against my attorney so I went to Alexandra. I interviewed 8 ...attorneys before selecting her and was very happy with her services. She made me feel at ease, that I wasn't going to be ripped off or taken advantage of because my case wasn't on emotion with custody or how much more I could get it was based on my rights as a mother and protecting myself. I needed someone to keep me level headed and make wise decisions against an irrational ex husband of 5 years. She did just that. This is the place you want to go if you want to feel empowered and know that the empowerment you get isn't going to be used to run up a massive bill.

I have been working with Alexandra for the last year and a half on my divorce which includes highly disputed issues over custody and support among other things. I cannot recommend her highly enough. My case has been very difficult due to a high conflict ex who has played games and attempted to manipu...late the system at every single turn. Through it all Alexandra has fought for me with integrity and honesty and an unparalleled knowledge of family law. Her insight and guidance have been indispensable to me through what has been a harrowing ordeal. She is passionate, professional and her instincts and tactics are always brilliant and spot on. I have watched her handle complex disputed matters in court with incredible skill, always getting the proper and just result. My divorce is likely going to trial in spite of many efforts from Alexandra and myself to settle with my ex. She works hard to settle your case but if you need to go to court she fights aggressively and skillfully and I am confident knowing she is in my corner. I truly don't know what I'd have done without her over the last 18 months and I dont even want to think about it!! In addition to her skill she is an empathetic and warm individual who truly cares about her clients. She maintains professionalism and integrity and does not tell you what you want to hear but what you need to hear within the context of the law, and this is why I've come to trust her counsel without reservation. When you hire Ms. Lavinsky, you will have a powerful and highly skilled advocate who will work hard and get you results.

Alexandra is AWESOME!!!! She helped me out with my follow up hearing. I hired her because my ex husband was giving me a hard time over EVERYTHING when it came to our daughter (child support, medical bills, etc) and it was very draining for me. Alexandra listened to me down to every little detail and ...helped smooth everything out for me (she put my ex in his place), down to where my spiteful ex is now civil with me (need I say more). She was always there when I needed something, gave me great advice, and responded to all of my emails and returned all of my calls (even for small things). She noted everything that I wanted made sure it was all on record the day we went to court! She is definetely a great catch and I'm so glad I hired her, and thankful for everything she did for me! With Alexandra Lavinsky....you don't need to look any further!

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.
