Posted by Reyn | September 29, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Tough and professional.

Shirin handled both my divorce and child-care custody matters from March 2018 through July 2020 which included multiple court appearances. When interviewing potential lawyers I sort out attorneys with a reputation for being tough and bullish. Shirin meets all those requirements. Throughout the ye...ars I was an emotional and curt client; Shirin always responded to this with kindness and professionalism. My dealings with Shirin were always professional and effective (though never lacking a sense of humor). With regard to billing it is my uneducated belief that Shirin was excellent value for money and in my experience was always fair in financial dealings. I recommend Shirin and GYL law without reservation. I am thankful to both Shirin and her excellent paralegal Sarah Newhouse for there continued support and excellent services.
