Natalia Gourari, Esq. is a very experienced matrimonial and divorce lawyer who I have worked with and I have known for many years. She is thorough, detail oriented and conscientious. She explains to clients the pros and cons of each important decision and achieves results. I highly recommend her.

So many people tell you "hire a good attorney", "get the most aggressive attorney you can get". In the beginning I made a mistake and hired inexpensive local attorney, that was lazy and inexperienced, and came to the first hearing unprepared. It was a disaster, and I was so lucky I found Natalya, who was the second attorney I hired. She got on my case quickly, and really cared. Natalya fought for my interests in custody case. She was not afraid to stand up for me, and ultimately won custody case. I will not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking professional legal representation.

The only reason I'm giving Natalia 5 stars is because 10 stars is not available! Before working with Natalia, I had fired 2 lawyers during the course of my custody / relocation case. Not only is she incredibly intelligent and professional but she genuinely cares about her clients. You are in good hands with her and I highly recommend you hire her for any marital/custody cases.

Natalia was my attorney in a custody case. Smart and experienced; remembered every single detail we spoke about during our consultation. Was always available to answer my questions. She was great in a courtroom too. I would retain her again if I had to.

Natalia was recommended to me by a friend, and I am thrilled that she was at my side through a difficult and contentious divorce, She provided great advice, explained the law while maintaining a reasonable and therefore defensible posture, which ultimately led to a fair and relatively speedy divorce. She talked me of the ledge when needed, and deftly dealt with a hostile opponent. I recommend her highly.

I believe that Natalia’s clever approach and detailed understanding of my specific situation helped us “win” the case. She was always there for me in answering questions and guiding me through this emotionally and financially straining period. Her attention to detail, memory of the specific facts, and years of experience made me feel confident, and in good hands, throughout the whole process. I highly recommend you seek her consultation and without me saying it, you’ll naturally choose to hire Natalia to represent you!

If you want to have a friend's advice through the legal point of view from person who would treat you as a honest friend. Natalia is the right choice.

He is very weak as a person with absolutely no knowledge as a lawyer. Introducing you creates your image in court the same as herself .. She cannot do anything in court, but then she will tell how much she did because everything could be even worse and so every time
