* Highly recommend Layla Zad *

I knew my divorce was going to be contested and complicated. Before I filed, I did quite a bit of research and interviewed multiple attorneys. From the initial consultation, I could tell Layla was the one to retain. From the filing of the first papers to receipt of the Divorce Decree, Layla and... her team provided timely advice and measured responses. In court, Layla was always prepared, confidant and efficiently rebutted opposition. In the end, I am more than satisfied with both the outcome of my case and the rest of the Palmer Rodak team. I highly recommend the firm!

Divorce Mediation

We engaged Palmer Rodak & Associates to mediate our divorce. We were able to come to an agreement in one full day of mediation (about as good as one could hope for). I think that Mathew and Layla did a solid job w/ that part. However, what would follow that agreement was much harder than I antici...pated. The real rock stars here are the paralegals that help you to the finish line. Especially Ashley who guided us through the cumbersome process, dealing with the courts (to save me time), and quickly responding to inquiries and (only) escalating when necessary (for cost savings), etc. I would recommend Palmer Rodak & Associates for your mediation needs.

Highly recommend. Amazing lawyer!

My experience with attorney Zad was exceptional. My family law case was complex and challenging, but her unmatched professionalism, experience, and attention to detail led to a very successful outcome. Despite the complexity of our child support case, I was always well informed and she was quick to... answer any questions that I had. She was focused on achieving a successful outcome and always had my families best interests in mind. She is an impressively brilliant attorney that is an expert in the field. She is a caring and compassionate attorney that is not only incredibly sharp and strategic in the courtroom but an amazing settlement negotiator. I highly recommend Layla, without hesitation, to anyone looking for a family law attorney. My experience and outcome far exceeded my expectations.

Satisfied Client

I needed a Family Law Attorney who could help me end a 45 year marriage. Layla was a god sent. Layla's up to date with the laws & processes, she's calm & respectful, but aggressive in court. This was a very hard time for me, she was understanding & supportive. There was open communication & updates. ...I was very confident with her. I highly recommend her. She stood by me for over a year. Thank you Layla.
