Smart and Talented Advocate!

Divya is a smart, aggressive attorney. She's super knowledgeable and incredibly well respected amongst her peers. I highly recommend Divya and her firm if you are looking for a personal injury attorney.

The Best!!!!!

Mrs Potdar is respectful and knowledgeable, returned my phone calls in a timely fashion and she kept me up to date with my auto Claim. When the insurance company tried to give me a low settlement, we decided to take them to court. A few weeks or so after receiving the court date in the mail, the insu...rance company decided to settle and I accepted. Mrs Potdar informed me that there was papers that need to be sign and she got me more money than I initially accepted. Even better!!! So I am extremely satisfied with her service and I would recommend her to anyone because she's the best!!!

An honest and highly competent attorney

I can't recommend Divya enough. I was in a tough spot - it's never fun to be involved in a legal dispute. Divya made my my situation much more tolerable. She was always on point, readily available, quick to respond, smart, tough and she made me feel like I had someone on my side.
