Absolutely BRILLIANT, completely dedicated to winning your case, cares about you and your family, worth his weight in gold!!

Guy Parvex is truly THE BEST in his field of family law. Five out of five stars easy for this expert!! Not only does he work fast and toward an effective resolution, he is completely thorough, listens carefully and really cares about each one of his clients. His technique, expertise, and well-spoke...n manner in the court room is truly impressive. He has a great rapport with the judges, as they respond well to him. It is obvious they respect him! He is very driven, naturally intuitive about people, and utterly brilliant. His 26 years of experience has made him an absolutely outstanding attorney. He always shows up to court completely prepared and willing to go the extra mile. He’s good with numbers and quick thinking on the fly. Not much gets past him as he is expert with his attention to detail. Guy Parvex handled my custody and settlement in a ‘high conflict’ divorce. My ex-husband tried every trick in the book with his dishonest, slimy attorneys to get 100 percent physical and legal custody of our children and tried to get out paying any support. Guy helped me navigate the psychological evaluation and mediators like stepping carefully through a mine field without taking any missteps. It took a year and a half just for that portion of my case and Guy never put the children or myself on the ‘back burner’. He always let me know we were important and being handled with great care. I knew I could trust him implicitly. He always only had our best interests in mind from beginning to end. He worked many nights, weekends, and even a few holidays to get my case settled. Along with this brutal custody battle full of horrendous false accusations against me, Guy always had invaluable advice on how to handle my children (he is unusually gifted with incite and wisdom) as there was massive parental alienation going on that effectively turned two of my children against me. My eldest (13) came to court with his father on more than one occasion to testify against me. Guy made an incredible intelligent heartfelt case to the judge to not allow this to occur and the judge ruled in our favor. I eventually got the physical and legal custody I wanted. (On his advise, my son and I have been in reunification therapy and just like he predicted, our relationship is turning around.) My ex further absconded with all remaining marital assets during our case dragging it out many more months. Guy was more resolved than ever and worked hard to bring my ex to justice eventually having him found in Contempt of Court on two counts resulting in a sentence of jail time! He "kicks ass and takes names"!! My ex is now on a very short leash with DCSS thanks to Guy hard work. My ex's last attorney called him "the expert" on more than one occasion and commented that Guy's move to role the stolen funds into income with child support now owed from it-enforceable by DCSS, was "a brilliant move, I wish I would have thought of it myself." I cannot express this enough, Guy Parvex is worth every last dollar he charges!! The world would be a much better place if there were more genuine humble intelligent caring people like him.

Great experience

My girlfriend and I were going through a rough time trying to get guardian of my nephew. When we called he met with us that day. Explained to us what the laws were, and assured us we were going to be ok, especially baby. He took his time and was compassionate to our feelings. We went to court last De...cember 2014. And he was right, everything worked out to our favor. Guy Parvix is a fantastic family law attorney.

Get outstanding and fast results in your contested or complex family case with Mr. Parvex

I had a very complex and contested family case that was poorly handled by my previous lawyer. The latter (previous lawyer) made serious mistakes that appeared unrecoverable by other lawyers that I consulted while seeking to substitute my previous lawyer few days before the trial. Thank God, I was for...tunate to find Mr. Parvex a week before the trial and he stepped in as a champion and promptly worked out a comprehensive stipulation order that corrected all previous mistakes and set the overall case in the right track and achieve outstanding results. Mr. Parvex was very professional and did not see me as dollar bills. He sought ways to minimize my legal charges while striving to get my best interests, Mr. Parvex provided me legal advises throughout the process to help me make reasonable choices and told me upfront the truth about the potential outcome of my case. I strongly recommend Mr. Parvex for his outstanding skills, professionalism and dedication to serve his clients. Hiring Mr. Parvex is a life saving and like a good life insurance. paid upfront. You would love the results.

If you love your children you'll use Guy Parvex

I initially hired Guy Parvex when my x-wife filled false accusations against my self and my new wife. I was devastated and scared at the thought of loosing any time with my children as she wanted to review custody and child support. Looking back now I couldn't imagine working with any other lawyer. G...uy is extremely knowledgeable about the law he took real interest in our case, my family and what was best for my children. Without a doubt Guy is the most respectful professional lawyer I have ever known. He was able to ensure my needs were promptly met with deadlines pertaining to court and always informed me right away when he had any contact from my x-wives lawyer. While Guy represented me I felt like there was a lot of work in details pertaining to our case and I always felt completely confident that he understood our situation in its entirety and was able to help me reach reasonable decisions based on his judgement, knowledge and expertise. While Guy helped us with our family law issues I felt like I was really being represented perfectly he was able to make it clear the things being said against me were entirely false. He ended up winning our case and I was awarded the schedule I preferred for our children. Guy Parvex is an expert in his field and most importantly I felt like he really cares about our family.

Outstanding attorney and individual

I hired Mr. Parvex after my ex-wife fled with my children to another county. He met with me within hours after contacting him and he was kind, realistic, and knowledgeable about the legal journey that I was about to embark upon. He was very level headed and at all times had the best interest of my ...children and myself at the forefront of his decisions. He works for the benefit of preserving the family despite attempts by opposing counsel to the contrary. He helped me get my children returned to this county and he was there always to listen and support me in any way possible. He is a man of great character and I am always reminded at how blessed I am to have found such a competent, courageous, ethical, and thoughtful attorney. Four years later we are finishing up the final pieces of this divorce and he has never wavered in his commitment to preserving my family. I am eternally grateful for the level of professionalism and knowledge that he possesses and for reuniting my family.
