Vanessa Betryna Gnekow

This review is to express my gratitude and appreciation of the hard work and passion that was put into my case. Vanessa moved me with her closing argument as she saw my son as a person and not just a name on a paper. I had to watch my son being damaged and hurting week by week and going without days... of knowing how he was or how he felt or touching him. Thank you so very much to you and your team for getting my son back home. We thank you so very much from the bottom Our hearts. God bless

Take knowledge, skill, education, professionalism, tact, confidence, compassion, and a driving passion to conquer extreme injustice with no fear of other parties, county or city entities; Align this with a boldness to walk in truth, and you have a law firm who took a team approach to shatter barriers... for my children and myself. We were tragically parted due to lurid maladaptive behavior at the hands of my children’s father. Dolefully, he was afforded the concealing of such behavior by higher authorities via the use of religious, racial and financial discrimination against me and my children. If you are the upright parent and you and your children are suffering unnecessarily or have encountered a system that works to push truth aside at the expense of your children’s lives, it’s time to give Vanessa and her team a call. Let them strategically position your case to rotate toward justice. Me and my children continue to mend and thrive as unification is about us and truth continues to unfold. To state how I feel about what Vanessa and her team have done for my family is beyond amazing and merely indescribable. Thanks so much Vanessa and team! God’s unfailing love.

I was going through a horrible divorce. I hired what I thought was an experienced lawyer, but she was terrible, the first time in court, she was 5 hrs late, and we lost, I got nothing, she didn't do anything to plead my case. The only good that came out of waiting 5 hrs is that I got to see Ms. Gneko...w in action, fighting for her client! I went home and looked her up and spoke on the phone with her for over and hour. I could tell right away that she really cared for her clients. Although I lost my retainer with the previous lawyer, switching to Ms. Gnekow was the best choice. She fought for me, we were awarded spousal support and even most of my lawyer fees. It was no accident, God put her in my path, used her to right the wrongs. Divorce is ugly and painful, but a good lawyer can get justice for you. I highly recommend Ms. Gnekow and Mr. Garcia who work very closely together on their cases, they're a great team, very tough in the courtroom but caring and understanding with their clients.

I was introduced to Vanessa Gnekow through my girlfriend's attorney who was not comfortable taking on such a sensitive custody case. She said she felt that Ms. Gnekow would be better suited for such a "tough, heart-wrenching and emotional battle." From the minute we met with Vanessa we were certain s...he was the best lawyer for the job. Mine was a specific and quite drastic case of child alienation. My parental rights were systematically being stripped from me due to previously misleading and inaccurate legal advice. That, combined with circumstance and unprofessional representation, caused for a very negative agreement ordered by the court. Filing for this RFO and changing the course of my children's current path away from me, meant absolutely everything to me...but I didn't know where to begin. I had already spent thousands of dollars previously in attorney fees, been through an emotional roller cosater…yet, to no avail. This was a make or break case for me. All or nothing. I was being kept from my 3 children and there was nothing my ex-spouse wouldn't do to ensure it stayed that way. It took months of preparation, phone calls, negotiations and legal advice. Ms. Gnekow and her staff, specifically her assistant Brianne, were nothing but helpful and gave me back the hope that I had slowly lost over the previous 9 months. The horrendous and unprofessional representation I received from my previous attorney had shaken my belief system to its core but Ms. Gnekow's strong work ethic, personal family morals and intelligence made all the difference in the world. Vanessa not only gave me great legal advice and representation but she was also emotionally vested in my specific situation. These, and these reasons alone, made it possible for me to follow the specific steps in order to ensure a successful custodial order form the Judge. I am filled with gratitude and admiration for the professional competency and effort put forth in my custody case by Vanessa Gnekow. Words cannot properly describe what a wonderful attorney she is. If you are looking for an attorney who is not bullied and will not back down in court, one who will look out for your best interest and most importantly, the interest of your children…you've found her. Thanks to everyone in Ms. Gnekow's office who helped on our case, we are eternally grateful. Sincerely, D and S
