Superior Family Law Attorney

Ms. Mikullka did an outstanding job handling my divorce and custody battle. She has a tremendous amount of family law experience and knew how to navigate through the court system with total proficiency. Ms. Mikulka gave every part of my case tremendous thought and effort, and she was always honest,... straightforward and compassionate. Her turnaround time with documents, as well as my inquiries, was consistently immediate. She was great at steering me in the right direction in terms of what to expect, what is reasonable, what I needed to do, etc. She took the time to get to know me and my situation and I was able to relax a little during negotiations knowing she knew what I wanted without me having to tell her. She anticipated outcomes correctly and everything she argued for, she won. In and out of the courtroom she simply "out-lawyered" the very competant opposing counsel. It was amazing to watch. I believe she is well-respected in the local court systems as even the Judge made it a point to recognize how well- prepared she was and the quality of everything she put in front of him. Also, she worked in an efficient, smart and honest manner so I did not incur extra billed hours uncessarily. Ms. Mikulka exceeded my expectations in every way and I highly recommend her for any and all family law needs.

Recommendation of an exceptional attorney Dina Mikulka Esq.

I would highly recommend Dina Mikulka Esq. to anyone needing legal advice regarding divorce and. family matters. Dina is what a lawyer is supposed to be. She is extremely knowledgeable, sincere, empathetic and trustworthy. I know this because I had two divorce attorneys prior, which I had to fi...re one and the second one was interested in money and couldn't care about his clients outcome. Dina works hard for her clients with their true well being in mind. She is prompt with responses to telephone calls and emails,never keeps you waiting . We all know how waiting for an outcome or more information can be extremely anxiety producing-that will never happen with Dina. If you are in need of a lawyer this is the person. I cannot praise her enough for all she has done for me.

You can stop searching for the best of the best, Dina is the Best!!!

DYFS entered a complaint against me and removed my child from my care. I felt it was unjustified and felt the case was a slam dunk. I believed the court would return my daughter at the first hearing. I was wrong. I made a crucial mistake by not hiring an attorney from the start and made lots of mist...akes because I did not have the advice of an attorney. I hired Dina late in the case, she immersed herself in catching up on months of DYFS files immediately upon taking the case. She was responsive to my concerns and provided me the much needed advice. Dina represented me at my next scheduled hearing, and my child was returned to me within days of the hearing AND the case was dismissed! Dina was professional, thorough, supportive and very knowledgeable and as a result she gave me back my daughter and my life. Dina, thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!!!!!
