I hired Simona Zakheim to represent me in domestic violence restraining order, her expertise in the legal system proved that she knows how to protect her clients and deliver the best possible outcome. Not only I received granted restraining order but also a full custody of my child. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of her services. Thank you, Simona!

Simona was referred to me by a family friend. I have been extremely pleased with her handling of my case. Simona takes the time to understand and consider my goals not only financially but to ensure the co-parenting relationship is also preserved. Her guidance has been crucial through the process; she has been willing to go to bat for me even when I may have otherwise agreed to something that would put me in jeopardy. Simona is quick to respond to my inquiries and keeps me in the loop every step of the way.

I had a high-conflict divorce case that took years to settle due to issues from the other side. Simona stayed calm, followed the law, provided me with exceptional guidance and, in the end, found a path to settlement that I didn't think would be possible. She did a fantastic job litigating a case that included six separate attorneys on my ex's side.

Simona is professional, organized, responsive and knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to my specific situation and provided easy to understand options and guidance. I appreciate Simona as well as her team and recommend her if you need child custody representation.

Simona is a brilliant lawyer. She knows the law, assesses the situation, and fights for the best outcome. She is fair, effective, and grounded - even when everyone else is spinning out. She protected me and my kids. I owe a lot to Simona.

Good experience. I worked with Simona Zakheim about 2 years ago to process my divorce and child custody. She did a good job for me getting the divorce complete and negotiating a reasonable child custody arrangement. Two years later, I had a few issues with my ex on custody and Simona was right there to help again. She is efficient and is always available within a reasonable time to answer my questions.

Didn't get to the right lawyer. But Simona still answered my question to her best knowledge. Thanks!

Simona is very responsive, knowledgeable, courteous, professional, communicator, leader, direct, smart, graceful, driven, fast, and personable lawyer. She is lawyer who fights for you. I am so thankful I chosen her. Simona is thoughtful and understands your problem and not afraid to speak the truth in court. . If you are looking for someone who is looking for your best interest and willing to actually listen to your needs and worries during a difficult situation this is the right attorney for you. She is very approachable and has a good relationship with the court as well as a strong professional network with other attorneys in the trade. When the other side tried to use coercive tactics, she pushed back. There were periods where I thought she powerfully pushed the other sides to do the right thing. She helped me get an excellent settlement agreement, under difficult circumstances, in less than one year. She is THE leader in family law. I would highly recommend Simona. Her communication skills and style are very direct and plain language which makes it easy and efficient to do business with her. She was encouraging with her advice. After so many difficult moments, particularly concerning my daughter’s safety and happiness, Simona fought for “her best interest”, and got what we justly wanted. Our faith translated into the name of Simona; she has given us back the joy to live. When Simona says that they take your case personally, she really mean it! The dedication of Simona went way above and beyond anything we could have hoped for, and she successfully ended a reign of bullying that had been going on for 12 years. I am running out of words to elaborate Simona’s professionalism but in very short, she is THE lawyer and I wish her all the best and success in her life

For the past 15 years I have looked to Simona for advise and representation for my legal matters. Simona handled a variety of cases for me, she remained vigilant and diligent from start to finish. Simona met every challenge which my cases presented with professionalism and expertise. Simona was always responsive whether by email or phone, I never felt as though I was out of the loop, I felt as though I knew our plan of action and where we stood. I feel lucky to have had Simona represent me for the past 15 years, she is the first person I go to when I need help with legal matters. Simona is 100% trustworthy and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

I have been working with Ms. Zakheim since November 2010 on my divorce. Throughout this case she has given me expert guidance and educated me about my options every step of the way. I let her know from the beginning that I was interested in being as amicable as possible, and she has respected that while still protecting my rights. At three specific times, when a more agressive approach was reqired, she was masterful in negociating through what I believed to be total impasse. I could not imagine going through this process without her. I trust her knowlege of the law, her judgement, her ethics, and her desire to reach the best possible outcome. As I move to the next phase, I will hire Simona for my estate planning needs. I know I am in good hands.
