The only Lawyer that does the job!!!!

A few years before my divorce a friend of mine had gone through her own, her attorney was Anthony Azemika. Needless to say when my divorce came around I went to him, because I noticed from the start that he was listening to her even when she thought he wasn't and he explained the law and the process ...and that made me relieved for her and when it was my turn not only did he do the same for me but he was even better. My emails and phone calls were always returned and trust me when I say I had many questions and every time he explained something to me it was always in a way I could understand and even if I didn't like an aspect of the law he always had another point of law that worked in my favor, a silver lining if you will. In the end even though divorce is a hard experience, Tony is the only lawyer that can get the client through with understanding and patience. With as many times we had been in court, it was plain as day to see what lawyers paid attention , which ones forgot who their clients were and which lawyers knew how to use their skills and that is why he stands out every time because he is unwavering in service to his client. He will have my recommendation for years to come and you couldn't be in better hands.

Amazing, hardworking, honest attorney

Tony was straight up honest with me from the first time I met him. He told me that he would not lie to me and that he would tell me the truth even if I didn't like it. He also told me that he would treat me as he would treat his friends and he did exactly that. He would tell me if my expectations ...were reasonable or not and he got exactly the results that he told me I could expect. He also told me from the beginning that he would stay in contact with me and he would never ignor me and he never ignored me. He would call me at night or even on weekends. He kept in contact with me through e-mail, which he seem to prefer because that way we would not play phone tag. Bottom line is that this guy is a hard-working, honest and very knowledgable lawyer. When you watch his twin brother and him walk into the courthouse, everyone knows them and when they go into the courtroom, the judge and the court's staff all know them and you feel like these two guys own the place. They get along with the court staff and it's obvious that they are liked and respected by the court staff and judges.
