Honest, Strategic and Effective

Karlina helped me with a protracted and messy child custody case. I changed lawyers to her, and am so very happy I did. She undid the damage my first lawyer did on not being strategic, and helped deliver the best results for my children. She is honest and frank, never lead me on, is very familiar wit...h many individuals at court and how to strategically operate within less than ideal scenarios, to ensure a positive outcome (which is not always guaranteed - she never gave me false hope). She was pleasant to work with, always available, would listen to my concerns and then offer options - either on the spot, or after some consideration would get back to me with her experienced opinion on the best approach. For context, my ex was extremely manipulative, devious, a narcissist, connected, and was represented be a seasoned lawyer. But despite the odds, Karlina came through for my daughters and I, after three years of struggle. I am deeply appreciative of all Karlina has done!

Extremely satisfied!!

I hired Karlina as a consulting attorney to help me finish a 5 year long divorce process. I immediately knew I had the right attorney. I learned more from her in the initial consultation than I did from my previous attorney who cost me thousands of dollars over a 4 year period. Karlina is extremely k...nowledgeable and efficient. There was a chance I would be unable to settle and forced to go to trial with my ex. I was very confident in Karlina’s expertise should it have come to that. I 100% recommend Karlina!!!!!

Considerate, Caring, and Competent

Karlina is a first class attorney! Early on in my case she was brought in to assist with the assigned attorney, but she made her mark because of her genuine concern for clients. She was always attentive, responsive and took the time to address any concerns and questions. I was able to work through... my case in a very cooperative fashion as she recognized how we could move things forward together. Karlina knows the law and exceeds expectations in getting to know her clients. Her responsiveness and ability to cut through to identify priorities and know details of the case is unparalleled!

Divorce and separation lawyer | Aug 04

Relationship: Co-worker

"I highly endorse and recommend Karlina as one of the best and remarkable attorneys with whom I have worked with (150 attorneys over nearly 20 years). I have worked with her daily for over 4 years. Her clients LOVE her. She is an outlier in all aspects of family law - setting strategy, expectations, negotiations, oral advocacy, and everything else. She is dedicated, responsive, extremely competent, always goes 14 out of 10 for her client. I simply have to tell her to slow down as she makes everyone else looks bad. You will not go wrong with Karlina."
