Alexander Zarin

Alex is absolutely amazing. He has been working on my divorce case since January, when I fired my second attorney. Alex picked up very quickly, initially his retainer was reasonable but not extremely cheap, however as things went on it was clear he was certainly not charging me in the same fashion ...as my second lawyer, and even quite better than my first lawyer. In my experience, Alex is not the type to charge you for one three minute e-mail a 15 minute fee, beware of lawyers doing that! I felt Alex will combine multiple short e-mails into one 15 minute fee, and frankly with me at this point I don't even think he's charging me that. The same goes for phone calls, and he will get back to you in reasonable time. What impressed me most about Alex is this, if he did not know the answer to something, he would tell me he did not know and he would tell me he would not charge me for researching it to find out that answer. He spent his own time looking up things he didn't know not charging me so he could practice law! You know how amazing that is these days with a lawyer. Alex went on to say that he liked my case because it had a little bit of everything and he could learn from it. My previous experience was people not checking on anything and telling me bad information. Especially my first lawyer, she would use words like that's my understanding. Why am I paying her 200+ an hour to tell me that's my understanding. It is my opinion that I can assure you nothing like that would ever happen with Alex Zarin. Alex took over just before the MSC, he immediately found a change in the law regarding military retired pay that my second lawyer did not pick up on. The change was crucial, thank you Alex. So all the advice I was receiving on that issue from the previous attorney was based on outdated information, Alex is that good, he picked up on the change in hours and I spent over 5000 on my previous attorney for outdated information on that issue. Alex is the first lawyer of the three who I felt truly cared about my situation, he did not judge me, or perhaps judged me the way an old friend from your crazy days would, for sure we clicked. Trust me, you want Alex on your side. I've had three lawyers on this case. The others only cared about the money, spewed out bad fax, and didn't bother to look things up charging me for everything they could. Alex is extremely smart. He can look at bank statements and other items and put things together, trace things back, he is sharp and quick like I've never seen. In the MSC he did not let anything get by, and was able to enter into the agreement that the parties agreed spousal support did not meet the marital standard, he worked it in last minute, a very good thing to have in the agreement from my point of view making modification more difficult. If I had met him in the beginning, before I had spent approximately $17,000 on the first two attorneys, I would have saved a fortune and come out much better off. From my heart I truly believe that to be true. Take my advice, if he's available hire him. Truly, Andrew

Alex has been an incredible asset and ally in my incredibly difficult and complicated divorce and child custody issues. He has always been there to answer any questions and concerns and fought vigorously to help me attain my desired and deserved outcome. Most importantly, he is a good, fair, and resp...ectable attorney. He will genuinely fight for what he believes is right.
