"I hope this email reaches you and you can recognize Michelle, its rare that you find people who genuinely look to help people. Thank you for having someone so amazing on your staff!"

I called your law office today to inquire about setting up a consultation down the road pertaining to the custody matters of my child. I was warmly greeted by Michelle, who not only went above and beyond addressing questions I had, she was also extremely polite. I have been shopping around all morning to get some simple questions answered in regards to a custody case I just finished with my daughter's mother. I will no longer utilize the law firm who represented me before, and I can and will promise when I reopen the case, as there are still some things I would like to see amended, I will be coming to you guys because of her. I hope this email reaches you and you can recognize Michelle, its rare that you find people who genuinely look to help people. Thank you for having someone so amazing on your staff!

"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."

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

"An institution is only as good as the people who work within it and Ava excels where others fail."

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.

"If and when ever the question is asked "Do you recommend and trust that Ava Gutfriend can handle any and every family court matter" my answer has always been and forever will be "YES""

Ava Gutfriend, when I hear of, speak of or merely think of that name in my mind it is a name that is equivalent to (Caring, Courteous, Excellence, Dependable, Focused, Hard Working, Honest, Knowledgeable, Loyal, Passionate, Respectful, Responsive and Trustworthy).  Ava is an attorney that truly cares about the cases she takes on and believes in the clients she chooses to represent.  Ava's character, knowledge and professionalism far exceeds any of the of the lawyers I've chosen to represent me in the past and those whom I've come in contact with throughout my experiences with the family court system.

My name is Albert and I became a client of Ava Gutfriend in 2013 after my seven year old twin children reported to my me that they were being Mistreated, Neglected and Sexually Assaulted by their mother and her live in boyfriend.  As you can imagine after hearing such horrific news my one and only thought was to remove my children from this toxic environment as soon as possible.  I immediately contacted ACS (Administration for Children's Services), NYPD (New York Police Department) and the law office of Ava Gutfriend and ever since retaining Ava she has handled every aspect of my case, ensuring my children's safety.  I am writing this review to all those whom are willing to read it and this includes You Ava, had it not been for all of your advise, expertise, hard work being by my side throughout this entire ordeal I do not know where my children would be right now or what direction this case might have taken.

If and when ever the question is asked "Do you recommend and trust that Ava Gutfriend can handle any and every family court matter" my answer has always been and forever will be "YES" I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that Ava can and I hope after reading this review you walk feeling the same sense of certainty I do regarding Ava's ability.  Retaining an amazing attorney that will represent you over twenty years of experience in all family court matters ranging from Alimony / Spousal Support, Divorce, Child Abuse / Neglect, Child Custody, Child Support Domestic Violence, Enforcement of Court Orders, Guardianship / Adoption, Modifications, Orders of Protection, Prenuptial Agreements, Paternity, Relocation, Uncontested Divorce, Visitation gives you the peace of mind not every attorney can afford their clients so take my word for it you need to look no further than Ava Gutfriend.

-Respectfully, Albert
