Client and peer reviews
Family Law:

“They say you meet some of the best people, during some of the most difficult times. And that was the case with meeting Gary and Laura. I didn’t want to retain an attorney at first, but my ex decided to get one on her own. So I went with Gary’s firm and immediately felt like the world was lifted off my shoulders. Gary sat and listened to me patiently, offered great advice throughout, and made an otherwise stressful event, go very smooth. Laura was very instrumental in providing timely feedback, answering questions I had in a thorough manner, and virtually taking care of everything I would never know how to do.  Gary is very reasonable with his pricing, and for the amount of help, knowledge, and money he saved me in the settlement, it was worth every penny.  Although I hope I never have to retain an attorney again, if I do, I am definitely calling Gary Dubrovsky. Thank you so much for helping me during one of the most draining experiences of my life and helping me spring forward to my new life!!”

“Gary Dubrovsky is a get-it-done type of guy. Once you make the decision to hire Gary, you can be confident that your case is not only in the best hands possible, but that he will do his best to achieve the best outcome possible. Extremely knowledgeable and eager to share that knowledge upon request, there is no question too small.

Gary handled my divorce a few months ago. The process, along with the paperwork, was completely overwhelming to me as there were special circumstances involved. I had no idea where to begin. However, once Gary took me on as a client, I was amazed at how quickly and efficiently he was able to move the process forward. Professional, personable and honest, I can’t think of a more qualified individual that I would want to work with.”

“Gary Dubrovsky and his counsel are top-notch.  I came into their office with my brains completely scrambled from a breakup gone bad and they could not have been more helpful. They quickly helped me get a temporary restraining order, then a stay away order, and worked through some property issues. Throughout it all, they were very easy to talk to, efficient, and professional. At the end of their service, the bill had nothing extraneous and was completely fair with the hours they worked. They were considerate of my wallet and I feel that no time was wasted.

Retaining a lawyer is not something anybody wants to do, but you won’t go wrong with Dubrovsky Law.  They helped me through a difficult time and I can’t imagine a job better done and in a more personable manner.  If the need arose, I wouldn’t hesitate to retain them again.”

“You never think divorce is going to happen to you, but at the beginning of the year I found myself facing exactly that. I was, of course, clueless to what needed to be done and overwhelmed by the paperwork so I hired Dubrovsky Law to take on the case for me. Gary and his team were very attentive and answered all of my annoying questions and made sure every detail was attended to. Gary is calming and understanding, but also incredibly knowledgeable about family law. I felt at ease through the entire process. I would definitely hire Gary again for all my future divorces (ha!) and would recommend him to any friends and family looking for representation with family law issues.”

—K.B., Los Angeles, CA

“Gary and I worked together on a complicated child custody case over a very long period of time.  He handled the challenge to communicate with his client in the most efficient and diplomatic way possible.  As the main contact point between the supervising attorney, myself and the client, I was amazed to see how thorough he could be.  Always on top of every detail of the case, Gary’s guidance and insight was imperative in helping me express very complicated terms accurately to our client.  Gary is a pleasure to work with.”

Immigration:

“We approached the possibility of Permanent Resident Status for the Canadian half of our lesbian marriage with a great deal of trepidation.  Jennifer immediately approached our situation with understanding, clarity and careful attention to detail.  She also prepared us fully for our interview with Homeland Security.  As a result, we were totally successful in our endeavor and couldn’t be happier.  In fact, we treated Jennifer to a glass of wine after the interview as a show of our immense gratitude for her dedication to our case.  We cannot recommend Jennifer enough.”
