Ava was a gem of a find when I found myself in a custody battle for my two boys. She knows the art of remaining patient and not letting ego or emotions get in the way. She has decades of experience in law and managing the court processes. My case was what they call a high conflict case with a varied range of issues. She went up against the most unscrupulous attorney and handled it with flawless class. Her strategy is simple, she was always very prepared and knew the details of my case, and more importantly the law. She always made me feel confident that every hearing we attended we'd come out one step closer to a positive outcome for my boys. She understands its not just a case, it is the welfare of a family in her hands. Custody battles are not a win/lost situation. She is not in it for the win. Instead she gives you insight so you can get the best outcome for the entire family regardless of what side of the table they sit on. In the end it is only the children that suffer and she really tries to limit the amount of pain the children have to endure. I gained custody early on in my case. Despite that she still tried to negotiate a amicable agreement. Unfortunately the situation did not end amicably. Ultimately custody of the children remained with me. The Family Court system is very difficult to navigate and the process is very long. The Court prefers parents to figure it out on their own...sometimes during that long process parents come to a mutual agreement. Sometimes they don't. When they don't great lawyers like Ava are your guiding light. She is the real deal!

After researching to find a great lawyer, Ava was the best choice in every way. From the moment I met Ava and explained my case, she made me feel so comfortable. Ava was so sure on winning me this case, that I trusted her in all that she said and did. I was going for guardianship for my grandson and she got me custody. Talk about winning. Ava Gutfriend is the way to go when you need a great lawyer. She answered all my calls, questions and if I needed to meet with her, she made herself available. I will recommend her to everyone. Thanks Ava for always putting me at ease and mostly for granting me the rights to protect my grandson in every way. You are the best in every way, as a lawyer, a professional, and a great person. Thank you and God bless you.

The best she great always will recommend her to anybody. She help me with my case she kept it real with me. I thank her so much for the help. When you need don't think about it go for hrr she a fighter .

Ava, has been with my case since two years now. It’s a difficult case being the dad doesn’t not want relocation to take place. However, due the certain unamicable things, diagnosis, relationship building with dad; it’s a double edged sword. I am comfortable she will prevail with her knowledge and expertise with child custody. Ava did care and advocates diligently for your concerns and case!i think she is the best !

Not all diamonds are forever. And if things get ugly, you'll find yourself like me - trying to navigate a court system steeped in dysfunction, racism and unconscious bias. A place where cases seem to be adjudicated by fiat. The fact is we are not represented equally and it's on you to find excellent counsel. Ava has the reputation (she's a fighter), recency (she knows all the players) and the experience (30+ yrs) to successfully represent you. An institution is only as good as the people who work within it and Ava excels where others fail. The system works when you hire competent, ethical counsel. You wanna win? Hire Ava.

Hands down the best child custody attorney! Compassionate, caring and years of experience. She made our family feel at ease with her leading the charge in our granddaughter’s child custody case. With years of experience and passion for children’s rights she has made our family feel that she was not only the right choice but the best!

Ava was very supportive and full of experience. There wasn't a question she couldn't answer or problem she didn't see a practical solution to. She was very easy to reach throughout my case by email, quick to respond. I would recommend her to everyone. I was going through multiple, yes, multiple custody/child support cases and with Ava's experience and concern, it doesn't get much better then her. She is at the top of her league.

Ava answered all my questions and helped me understand what I needed to do, I thank her for her consultation,she responded back to me in a timely manner she thorough and straight to the point and friendly....She Cares and Loves what she does.

Ava is the real deal, an excellent attorney, one who will fight very hard for her client. She tells you the “real truth” of what to expect in your case. I have the privilege of retaining Ms. Gutfriend for my divorce proceeding and I am so please with her professional handling of my case with all the different misleading tactics my ex throw at us.

Ava is an excellent attorney, with tremendous knowledge of family law, both from books and in the courthouse. I have sent her many cases and she always takes great care of my clients. I would not hesitate to put another client in her trusted hands.
