Review Brinda Gandhi

Excellent Lawyer

Brinda was very helpful throughout my case, she is very professional and transparent with each and every step while dealing with your case. When you are going through a legal process you need a lawyer to trust on completely. I loved how she considered all small details with my case, provided me correct guidance and also helped me to move on confidently. I'm glad I found her through a friend and would definitely recommend her.

In any profession, you find some who are good at what they do and some who are genuinely wonderful human beings. It's rare to find individuals who are both. Rarer still to find them in the legal profession. This is what makes Brinda so unique. Even though she would struggle to admit it, Brinda continues to invest a part of her true self in the people she works with and derives a genuine sense of soul warming joy when she is able to help others. I've known her since before she practiced law, and she's always been that way. It's just so great to see her succeeding at something she's clearly so good at!

It was a pleasure working with Brinda. She is very smart, remains calm and keeps you calm..in difficult situations, very detailed and focused. She does her homework properly and explains you very patiently the next steps. She made my very comfortable throughout my case which was messy and lengthy like any other case with complications. I would highly recommend her.

I am very grateful to have had Brinda Gandhi to be my attorney for my divorce case, particularly during a trying time like Covid. I felt reassured, strengthened & greatly supported to have her represent my case, especially given all the challenging negotiations, twists & turns. And as the case progressed, I had a feeling of being in the best hands. Particularly as a woman to know, that our attorney always has our back, is very critical, for which I will be ever grateful to Brinda. All through the case, I really felt assured, that she was ever vigilant, looking out for my interests & making the best decisions & taking the best steps forward. She knows her subject very well & what I admired about her is that she had a very mature approach to my case. She knew exactly what was worth pursuing & what I didn't need to lose sleep over. She is very level-headed & while she never promised me the moon, she went above & beyond to secure my best interests.

Brinda is a hard working and dedicated lawyer! Getting a divorce is hard and stressful, but she made the entire process easy and less stressful. The process was long but Brinda made sure that everything was done on time. She was always available and worked through all my requests. She is very detail oriented, all the paperwork was well organized and throughly explained everything. I will definitely recommend Brinda!
