Vanessa Betryna Gnekow

I originally retained Vanessa for my child custody case in 2020. I was in a long ugly custody battle and Vanessa and team worked their magic. You want someone that is going to fight for you in an honest and ethical way, Vanessa is your girl. Not only did she make me feel at ease through the whole sca...ry mess she always ensured she had my child's best interest. Vanessa's team was efficient and walked me through the process, they were available whenever I had any questions. The declarations that her team wrote were well written and on point, they truly made my case so much stronger. Recently I needed a modification to my original order and there was no one else I trusted than Vanessa. Years later she did it again, she got me the results that I wanted. Vanessa cares for her clients in a very real and authentic way. Having to hire an attorney is never a fun experience, going to court, facing a judge can be such an intimidating and scary thing to go through. Having a great attorney at your side makes all the difference. I am forever grateful to Vanessa for what she did for my family.

Vanessa and her team were excellent to work with. From the first consultation on, Vanessa was responsive to emails and calls and would often contact me after hours to follow up with my case. She and her team fought for me especially when time sensitive documents were needed by the court. Vanessa tru...ly cared about my case and I’d recommend her services to anyone needing a family law attorney.

I highly recommend Vanessa Gnekow to anyone needing an attorney, as she and her team are efficient, helpful and truly great at what they do. I am forever grateful to Vanessa Gnekow and her team (especially Patricia and Shannon) for everything they did for my daughter and I. Two years ago because m...y daughter went to visit my ex in another state and he did not return her to me on the agreed upon date that we had discussed. I was in a state of panic in trying to figure out how to get my daughter back. I initially hired another attorney that did nothing for 4 weeks, so I sought out another attorney, and that's when I found Vanessa Gnekow. Upon retaining Vanessa Gnekow, she had my daughter back to me within a week because of the ex-parte that she filed. After getting my daughter back my ex then filed for a move-away, so Vanessa Gnekow represented me for two long years. My case was extremely complex, as we have been going to court since my daughter was 6 months old, but she came prepared to win at each hearing. Her presence in the courtroom is truly unmatched. Vanessa Gnekow and her team dealt with my case in such a professional manner and fought for me extremely hard. Vanessa Gnekow is very upfront in regards to her advice and strategy for your case, and she ALWAYS has best interest at heart. She went above and beyond for me as her client and WON my case! You will not be disappointed in the work, time and effort she will put into helping you get the justice you deserve.

After having a few consultations I knew Vanessa was my choice. The other attorneys I spoke with seemed fake and just trying to "retain." Vanessa truly cared for me and my position and had my back the entire time. Her team is amazing. Shannon, Julie and Daisy were the best legal support team. I was t...otally lost, in the dark and didn't know what to expect when going into a divorce. Vanessa took my case and got me even more than what I even thought I was ever going to get. Her paralegal Julie was amazing and held my hand every step of the way. At times I just thought this was too much for me. Julie handled my (crying) calls with such care and gave me back my confidence. It was like I was talking to a friend. Shannon is great and Daisy worked so fast to finalize my orders. Seeing Vanessa fight for me in court was exactly what I needed. She made sure I was not going to get bullied by my Ex and his attorney. Vanessa is very hands on. Not your typical 8-5 hours. I highly recommended Vanessa and her team.
