"I endorse Attorney Shulman. I appreciate the her contributions to the legal community, specifically through her publication of legal guides. She has been particularly insightful about the effect of the COVID19 pandemic on the practice of family law."
"I endorse this lawyer. Her fierce skill combined with her extensive knowledge allow her to achieve the best possible result for her clients."
"This lawyer is one of the precious few who understands the dynamics of both the courtroom and the family. She works hard to find a settlement, but also is tough in the courtroom."
"I cannot say enough about Maya. I recently worked with her on an interstate custody case and the level of representation she provides is top notch. Her entire office is fabulous. I'm so happy to now have someone to refer to in LA without hesitation, as she will be my "go to" attorney on any family law needs I have down that way. I have worked with other attorneys in Southern California and their knowledge, experience, and level of client service/communication pales in comparison to that of Maya and her staff."
"I endorse this lawyer. Maya is a very knowledgeable lawyer, passionate about the concerns her clients face, and a wonderful resource for family law matters. I highly recommend her."
"Maya Shulman is one of the most dedicated, hard-working and ethical attorneys I have ever know. I would highly recommend her."
"I endorse this lawyer highly. She is very knowledgable and a tough litigator. She is also literate in several Slavic languages. She has the patience and personality to also practice in Children's Court, where children are removed from the home due to alleged abuse and/or neglect."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Maya for many, many years. She is smart, knowledgeable, responsive and caring of her clients. Not only are you in good hands with Maya, but you'd be luck to have her as your attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have referred a number of clients to Maya Shulman over the years and, in each instance, the clients were very satisfied with the outcome. Maya is professional, conscientious and extremely competent in her chosen field of practice. I recommend her highly."
"I have referred many of my immigration clients to Maya for divorce and custody matters. We have worked together for clients on multiple occasions on complicated cases involving the intersection of state family code & procedures and federal immigration law. She has been a zealous advocate and a realistic advisor to many emotional and desperate clients. I trust her judgment implicitly."
