I have consulted Attorney Gornbein for my Divorce Case...I can't afford an attorney since I am a student who's putting himself through school. But after communicating with him, I knew that he would be the best family law attorney for me if I could afford one. He is the best!!!

Henry was an excellent Lawyer for me that took my case and heard my concerns and acted professionally in my behalf. He knew my issues were tough and what I wanted, and did his best to work with me and for me. His effort, experience, and research were things he resourced to bring my case to an end with the results that I was looking for to the best of what is in the guidelines of the law. I have great confidence that I can refer him to family and friends. Henry did an excellent job handling my divorce. He was very knowledgeable and concise in his work. Everything was done great and the outcome was the best I could of hoped for.

Henry provided exceptional representation in my divorce matter. His deep knowledge and understanding of the process, law and practical issues enables a calm and sure approach in what can be a highly emotional, unpredictable and nasty type of matter. His advice was sound and I ended up with a much better result than originally predicted against a very aggressive and questionably ethical opposing counsel. We worked together very well and I also like and admire him as a person.

Mr. Gornbein was my attorney in a high conflict case. He and his staff were extremely professional and caring and I felt I was in good hands. At times when I would worry about the outcome of my divorce, Mr. Gornbein always assured me that he would do whatever it takes to protect my daughter and me. He was always calm, and very gentlemanly; never getting nasty or ugly in mediation as is often seen in other attorneys. I am pleased with the outcome of my divorce and I have recommended Mr. Gornbein to several friends who are going through a divorce and they too, we're very pleased by his representation.

I was going through the client ratings of Henry Gornbein and for the most part they represent him exactly as what he is: one of the best, most trusted family law attorneys in Michigan. It disturbed me to read a couple of the ratings claiming Henry was not prepared, doesn't do trial law, and was not looking after the best interest of his clients. Nothing could be further from the truth. Henry was my THIRD attorney during my own divorce. He was the most prepared I have met and provided the proper advice for me to get through my divorce with the least possible fallout for all parties involved. I am also the host of the nation’s most listened to podcast on divorce, Divorce Source Radio. After Henry completed my case I requested that he join Divorce Source Radio and do his very own show regarding the legal side of the divorce process. I did this because I believe his advice is some of the best I have heard from a family law attorney, and I've interviewed hundreds. I’ve also learned that when a client who may be incredibly angry with their soon-to-be ex doesn't get EVERYTHING they want, they direct their anger back to their attorney. Most times, trials are the last resort, and only a very small percentage of divorces end in trial. I often say on my shows that attorneys are only successful when both parties are equally unhappy. How do you think clients feel when their attorney leads them on to believe they can get them everything they want only to end up in trial, where the judge ultimately makes the decision, therefore they don’t receive their desired result? Now they have spent tens of thousands of dollars, split their family even farther apart, and they still end up with the same result they would have most likely received had they have gone the more peaceful path of mediation. What I like about Henry’s approach is that he will go to trial and fight for his clients if needed but does everything in his power to find a more peaceful path of resolution beforehand. If you have children, it is imperative to keep the peace for their sake. Our mantra is “you have to love your kids more than you hate your ex”. Ever looked through reviews of a product or restaurant you love? Most times you find that people love it just as much as you do but you will always find the few that bash it. That’s just the nature of people. There will always be the “haters”. But in a divorce situation, some individuals are dealing with personality disorders, narcissism, and a “must win” mentality, regardless of the cost. This is a recipe for disaster. Regardless of what some of the “haters” are saying, I know Henry to be one of the most trustworthy, hardworking, and dedicated family law attorneys in the country. He is the first one to suggest you do your homework and find the right attorney for yourself. Once you have done your research and hired the attorney, you need to trust them. Believe me, they know more about the legal system than you do. Sometimes you just need to let go and move on. There is life after divorce if you choose to put the past behind and move forward. Do your personal work and don’t try to blame your ex for everything. In my experience, both parties play a role in the success or demise of relationships. If you’re considering Henry you should listen to some of his shows on Divorce Source Radio so you know what he stands for. When he is not working for his clients he spends most of his spare time writing books and doing radio & television shows in an attempt to help people through the process of divorce.

Henry's family law knowledge coupled with his compassion make him an excellent choice for anyone contemplating or going through a divorce. He has literally written the book on demystifying the divorce process. He educated me about my options and looked after my best interest during a traumatic time. I highly recommend Henry.

If you have children, it is imperative to keep the peace for their sake. Our mantra is “you have to love your kids more than you hate your ex”. Ever looked through reviews of a product or restaurant you love? Most times you find that people love it just as much as you do but you will always find the few that bash it. That’s just the nature of people. There will always be the “haters”. But in a divorce situation, some individuals are dealing with personality disorders, narcissism, and a “must win” mentality, regardless of the cost. This is a recipe for disaster. Regardless of what some of the “haters” are saying, I know Henry to be one of the most trustworthy, hardworking, and dedicated family law attorneys in the country. He is the first one to suggest you do your homework and find the right attorney for yourself. Once you have done your research and hired the attorney, you need to trust them. Believe me, they know more about the legal system than you do. Sometimes you just need to let go and move on. There is life after divorce if you choose to put the past behind and move forward. Do your personal work and don’t try to blame your ex for everything. In my experience, both parties play a role in the success or demise of relationships. If you’re considering Henry you should listen to some of his shows on Divorce Source Radio so you know what he stands for. When he is not working for his clients he spends most of his spare time writing books and doing radio & television shows in an attempt to help people through the process of divorce.

Henry's family law knowledge coupled with his compassion make him an excellent choice for anyone contemplating or going through a divorce. He has literally written the book on demystifying the divorce process. He educated me about my options and looked after my best interest during a traumatic time. I highly recommend Henry.

Henry was an excellent Lawyer for me that took my case and heard my concerns and acted professionally in my behalf. He knew my issues were tough and what I wanted, and did his best to work with me and for me. His effort, experience, and research were things he resourced to bring my case to an end with the results that I was looking for to the best of what is in the guidelines of the law. I have great confidence that I can refer him to family and friends. Henry did an excellent job handling my divorce. He was very knowledgeable and concise in his work. Everything was done great and the outcome was the best I could of hoped for.

Henry provided exceptional representation in my divorce matter. His deep knowledge and understanding of the process, law and practical issues enables a calm and sure approach in what can be a highly emotional, unpredictable and nasty type of matter. His advice was sound and I ended up with a much better result than originally predicted against a very aggressive and questionably ethical opposing counsel. We worked together very well and I also like and admire him as a person.

Mr. Gornbein was my attorney in a high conflict case. He and his staff were extremely professional and caring and I felt I was in good hands. At times when I would worry about the outcome of my divorce, Mr. Gornbein always assured me that he would do whatever it takes to protect my daughter and me. He was always calm, and very gentlemanly; never getting nasty or ugly in mediation as is often seen in other attorneys. I am pleased with the outcome of my divorce and I have recommended Mr. Gornbein to several friends who are going through a divorce and they too, we're very pleased by his representation.

I was going through the client ratings of Henry Gornbein and for the most part they represent him exactly as what he is: one of the best, most trusted family law attorneys in Michigan. It disturbed me to read a couple of the ratings claiming Henry was not prepared, doesn't do trial law, and was not looking after the best interest of his clients. Nothing could be further from the truth. Henry was my THIRD attorney during my own divorce. He was the most prepared I have met and provided the proper advice for me to get through my divorce with the least possible fallout for all parties involved. I am also the host of the nation’s most listened to podcast on divorce, Divorce Source Radio. After Henry completed my case I requested that he join Divorce Source Radio and do his very own show regarding the legal side of the divorce process. I did this because I believe his advice is some of the best I have heard from a family law attorney, and I've interviewed hundreds. I’ve also learned that when a client who may be incredibly angry with their soon-to-be ex doesn't get EVERYTHING they want, they direct their anger back to their attorney. Most times, trials are the last resort, and only a very small percentage of divorces end in trial. I often say on my shows that attorneys are only successful when both parties are equally unhappy. How do you think clients feel when their attorney leads them on to believe they can get them everything they want only to end up in trial, where the judge ultimately makes the decision, therefore they don’t receive their desired result? Now they have spent tens of thousands of dollars, split their family even farther apart, and they still end up with the same result they would have most likely received had they have gone the more peaceful path of mediation.

If you have children, it is imperative to keep the peace for their sake. Our mantra is “you have to love your kids more than you hate your ex”. Ever looked through reviews of a product or restaurant you love? Most times you find that people love it just as much as you do but you will always find the few that bash it. That’s just the nature of people. There will always be the “haters”. But in a divorce situation, some individuals are dealing with personality disorders, narcissism, and a “must win” mentality, regardless of the cost. This is a recipe for disaster. Regardless of what some of the “haters” are saying, I know Henry to be one of the most trustworthy, hardworking, and dedicated family law attorneys in the country. He is the first one to suggest you do your homework and find the right attorney for yourself. Once you have done your research and hired the attorney, you need to trust them. Believe me, they know more about the legal system than you do. Sometimes you just need to let go and move on. There is life after divorce if you choose to put the past behind and move forward. Do your personal work and don’t try to blame your ex for everything. In my experience, both parties play a role in the success or demise of relationships. If you’re considering Henry you should listen to some of his shows on Divorce Source Radio so you know what he stands for. When he is not working for his clients he spends most of his spare time writing books and doing radio & television shows in an attempt to help people through the process of divorce.

Henry's family law knowledge coupled with his compassion make him an excellent choice for anyone contemplating or going through a divorce. He has literally written the book on demystifying the divorce process. He educated me about my options and looked after my best interest during a traumatic time. I highly recommend Henry.

I have consulted Attorney Gornbein for my Divorce Case...I can't afford an attorney since I am a student who's putting himself through school. But after communicating with him, I knew that he would be the best family law attorney for me if I could afford one. He is the best!!!

Henry was an excellent Lawyer for me that took my case and heard my concerns and acted professionally in my behalf. He knew my issues were tough and what I wanted, and did his best to work with me and for me. His effort, experience, and research were things he resourced to bring my case to an end with the results that I was looking for to the best of what is in the guidelines of the law. I have great confidence that I can refer him to family and friends. Henry did an excellent job handling my divorce. He was very knowledgeable and concise in his work. Everything was done great and the outcome was the best I could of hoped for.

Henry provided exceptional representation in my divorce matter. His deep knowledge and understanding of the process, law and practical issues enables a calm and sure approach in what can be a highly emotional, unpredictable and nasty type of matter. His advice was sound and I ended up with a much better result than originally predicted against a very aggressive and questionably ethical opposing counsel. We worked together very well and I also like and admire him as a person.

Mr. Gornbein was my attorney in a high conflict case. He and his staff were extremely professional and caring and I felt I was in good hands. At times when I would worry about the outcome of my divorce, Mr. Gornbein always assured me that he would do whatever it takes to protect my daughter and me. He was always calm, and very gentlemanly; never getting nasty or ugly in mediation as is often seen in other attorneys. I am pleased with the outcome of my divorce and I have recommended Mr. Gornbein to several friends who are going through a divorce and they too, we're very pleased by his representation.

I was going through the client ratings of Henry Gornbein and for the most part they represent him exactly as what he is: one of the best, most trusted family law attorneys in Michigan. It disturbed me to read a couple of the ratings claiming Henry was not prepared, doesn't do trial law, and was not looking after the best interest of his clients. Nothing could be further from the truth. Henry was my THIRD attorney during my own divorce. He was the most prepared I have met and provided the proper advice for me to get through my divorce with the least possible fallout for all parties involved. I am also the host of the nation’s most listened to podcast on divorce, Divorce Source Radio. After Henry completed my case I requested that he join Divorce Source Radio and do his very own show regarding the legal side of the divorce process. I did this because I believe his advice is some of the best I have heard from a family law attorney, and I've interviewed hundreds. I’ve also learned that when a client who may be incredibly angry with their soon-to-be ex doesn't get EVERYTHING they want, they direct their anger back to their attorney. Most times, trials are the last resort, and only a very small percentage of divorces end in trial. I often say on my shows that attorneys are only successful when both parties are equally unhappy. How do you think clients feel when their attorney leads them on to believe they can get them everything they want only to end up in trial, where the judge ultimately makes the decision, therefore they don’t receive their desired result? Now they have spent tens of thousands of dollars, split their family even farther apart, and they still end up with the same result they would have most likely received had they have gone the more peaceful path of mediation. What I like about Henry’s approach is that he will go to trial and fight for his clients if needed but does everything in his power to find a more peaceful path of resolution beforehand.
