I first met with Raunak when someone else was representing me in my divorce. By the end of my consultation with him, it was clear that Raunak is a breed apart from other attorneys. It is really night and day.
My divorce was so messy and my first attorney made the mess even worse instead of fixing problems. Raunak changed the whole direction of my case. It was such a breath of fresh air. I don’t know how I could have gotten through it all and kept my sanity intact if I hadn’t changed attorneys and hired Raunak to represent me.
As time went on, Raunak proved himself to be very thorough and knowledgeable. Unlike my first attorney, he wasn’t all talk. He actually got results. Raunak also repeatedly went above and beyond his obligations and proved that he was genuinely committed to me and my case. I know he has much bigger cases than mine, but he always treated my case as important. His commitment has been truly exceptional.
If you're looking for an attorney who will defend you and your rights, Raunak is the one. I can't thank him enough for everything he has done for me. He’s seriously the most amazing attorney ever and I am forever grateful!!

Anyone who has had to go to family court knows just how stressful it is. A big part of the stress is worrying whether your attorney will really help you achieve a favorable outcome. Another concern is wondering, "Will my attorney make my case a priority, or will I be just be another client that he/she can barely keep track of?" All these concerns vanished after I started working with Raunak Kothari. At every step of the way, Raunak put me at ease with his knowledge and attentiveness. Thanks to his experience, he was able to point out so many considerations that had never occurred to me. Apart from making me feel like a priority, Raunak ran circles around opposing counsel. It wasn’t even close to a fair fight. Throughout the whole process, he fought for my interests and guided me with tremendous insight. And he did all of these things with kindness and respect. At the end of the day, I was thrilled with the outcome of my case. I am so grateful that I had Raunak representing me and can’t imagine that any other lawyer could have achieved the same results. I will send my family and friends straight to him if they are ever in need of a family law attorney. He is simply phenomenal and worth every penny.

I was represented by one of the best known firms in New York City, but my case was going in circles. A friend suggested I speak with Raunak Kothari and I am so glad I did. Raunak brought clarity to my situation, quickly got my case back on track, resolved the issues my prior attorney could not and brought other issues to my attention that I had never considered.
Throughout the process, Raunak kept an unwavering focus on my priorities. Before negotiations, he explained the implications of various options, suggested alternatives, anticipated the other side’s arguments and explained the law that applied to my situation. At the four way meeting we finally had, Raunak’s experience really came to shine. He was so practical, clear and persuasive. Even the attorney on the other side could not disagree with his points.
Raunak’s calm but firm demeanor gets results. He is open, direct, sharp and responsive. In the end, he had to completely rewrite the agreement my prior attorney had started and the difference was striking. Even though his work was so much better, his fees were lower. After he resolved my case, I have continued to seek his counsel as new circumstances arise.

Real review from an actual client. I'll keep it short and sweet. A genuine interest and compassion for your case. Extremely attentive. Keeps your head out of the clouds and focused on realistic solutions and outcomes. Aggressive yet professional. My name is J.R. and I was a client from 2014-2016 for my custody matter. I couldn't be happier with my outcome.

I would recommend Danielle and her firm for any of your family law needs. She was always easy to communicate with via phone, e-mail, text, etc. and she was considerate to the needs of not only myself but my children as well. All legal filings were extremely thorough and timely. Danielle was extremely professional in court hearings and with opposing counsel. If I should ever need assistance in the future I would not hesitate to hire her once again. The firm as a whole is amazing on every level. I will be forever grateful to her for everything she did for me and my family!

One of the things I like about Mark is his ability to provide sound and practical insights about legal issues. He is extremely resourceful and knowledgeable. His duty of care to clients goes beyond the formal requirements- but he shows empathy and understanding of client’s needs. Lastly, Mark is simply a kind human being.

I chose Tony and his firm based on their excellent reputation for the most complicated of cases, especially those where financial issues are concerned. The knowledge and experience Tony offers in these areas far surpasses anything I had imagined. Tony is highly knowledgeable and realistic in all financial areas , as well as, extremely resourceful in calling in other experts ( when necessary). Although our case was lengthy, Tony remained invested in seeking justice throughout the case. I highly recommend Tony as a highly qualified attorney to navigate even the most difficult of cases. Thank you Anthony Auten and all the staff at Grossman Law.

I was sold on Mr Auten immediately as the person I wanted to represent me in my divorce. Such a credible, professional, stately attorney on my side made the other side begin cooperating as soon as he was retained, and he eased the whole process along. I am thrilled with the price, the service, and the result!

Ben is by far not only a great lawyer, but one of the better people you will come across.. during my legal situation he never left me second guessing, in fear and always remained in control of every aspect of my case. I have often heard that Family Court cases can get out of hand very quickly. Ben kept the situation in control.. Would recommend x1000!

Went through a divorce and was completely lost. Ben was able to fight for the light at the end of the tunnel for me. I could not be where I am in my life at this point without having sought counsel with Ben. His paralegal, Connie, is a true gem and extremely helpful. Janet, the secretary is equally as patient, kind and efficient. Ben has a calm demeanor, but will fight for you, never steer you in the wrong direction and is worth every dime. He makes the best use of your money and your time. I am finally done and feel like he was the best investment I’ve made even during a truly awful time.

I could not have asked for better. He doesn’t screw around or give you unrealistic expectations. He knows lawyers are expensive and makes the best use of his time. His follow up is exceptional and doesn’t leave you hanging or wondering what’s next. And most importantly he knows his stuff. He gets it done and is on YOUR side. I had the best outcome possible and he exceeded all my expectations. Would definitely use again!

Phenomenal experience! Consultation was initially with Brandon and then Allison was designated primary. Not enough kind words for the entire organization. Professional, courteous, extremely knowledgeable and diligent. Allison and her staff were there with me every step of the way through a particularly difficult divorce and never once did I feel alone. Incredible attention to detail and always available to answer questions or provide reassurance. Allison made an otherwise miserable situation easily bearable.

Attorney Joseph help me get thru a complicated and delicate divorce. He took time to help me understand the various stages of the process and spoke English to me instead of lawyer talk. There were times I was discouraged and out right frustrated, my attorney talked me to me until my discouragement/frustration was gone. If you have a family law related matter this is the attorney you need to talk to.

Donna was my attorney through a two year fight with a very contentious ex wife and her equally contentious attorney.
Everything from 50/50 custody to every financial decision (including the realtor chosen to sell the marital home) was fought for or had to be decided by the court because of my ex and her attorney.
After a long and drawn out process I got the 50/50 custody that I wanted and am much better off financially than I could have ever imagined at the start of this process.
Furthermore, Donna was very good at talking me through the process and calming me when I felt overwhelmed or just wanted to cave to their scare tactics. This saved me thousands of dollars and helped me through this emotionally.
I couldn't have asked for anything more from an attorney than what I received by hiring Donna.

Donna Green was very helpful in my divorce case and acted with constant professionalism. She advised me on court proceedings that were necessary for me to receive an equal distribution of an asset and temporary support in my divorce case. Donna was always mindful of my comfort zone in making decisions concerning the case and showed a great amount of expertise when dealing with opposing counsel. I feel pleased with the outcome of my divorce and feel that Donna's experience in the courtroom as well as reputation within the legal community contributed to my positive outcome.

A year and a half into my case, with two other attorney's behind me who botched up my case and basically set my case up for failure, Donna Green was willing to take on my child custody and divorce case. From the minute Donna took over my case I felt like I had someone who actually listened to me and cared and was ready and willing to "fight for my rights". I wasn't just a number and a paycheck.
Donna has a brilliant mind. She was able to make things happen that my two previous attorneys told me "would not happen".
I know Donna will be "Judge Green" someday. Donna's knowledge, wisdom, patience, gusto, respect, perseverance, and sense of humor in the midst of very stressful situations make her stand out.
Thank you Donna for caring about me and my son and willing to fight for us.

Tracy is hands down one of the best lawyers around. Initially, I hired her due to her impressive knowledge on divorce matters but I learned later that she is also incredibly dedicated. There was never a moment where I was left questioning the process. If I had any questions, she was very quick to respond.
Tracy handled my somewhat complicated divorce case very well through some difficult situations. I highly recommend 10/10.

I was looking to start a small business for engineering consulting / design and was referred to Triston for business legal advice. Not only did he accurately and concisely explain the process for starting a company in the state of Oregon, he also went above and beyond to ensure that I understood the various types of small businesses and relating legal protections thereof. Creating an LLC vs a DBA, the benefits of Company-to-Client Service Agreements, Trademark of Logos, and so forth were items that Triston patiently and competently explained to me in a polished, professional manner. He prepared a variety of legal documents and answered my questions without issue and is definitely a trustworthy and talented individual for it. I look forward to working with him more in the future as my company grows.

After recommendations from several Portland friends working in law, I hired Zach. He helped navigate my divorce when it became clear during mediation, I needed my own legal counsel. He was thorough and detailed in working through unexpected challenges as the process repeatedly bogged down. I feel fortunate to have had his excellent assistance in getting through an unpleasant divorce. It's good to look back over the process and have no regrets about the amount of trust you placed in your attorney. He is a great guy, and I highly recommend Zach.

Attorney Franko was very helpful, knowledgeable, and caring during the events of my case. I had previously hired an experienced attorney from a well-known area firm, and had I continued to retain his services over Attorney Franko's, not only would I have lost financial compensation, I would have incurred increased bodily damage from a misdiagnosed spinal injury that he discouraged a second opinion on. Attorney Franko doesn't over promise compensation, but he also works his hardest to reach the best possible outcome for his clients. I was, and continue to be, treated with respect and kindness. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues, and would continue to do so.

Katherine is a great attorney who knows her stuff and will not waste your time. I hired Katherine for post-decree issues that were handled quickly and professionally. She is straightforward about what you can expect from her and the courts and always relayed this to me, every step of the way.

I have already recommended Katherine to several people and will continue to do so.

Ms. Haskins Becker and her team put my mind at ease from our first meeting and consultation. She took the time to answer all of my questions, and there were many, and I immediately felt confident in my decision to retain her firm. A divorce is never an easy process, and I had specific requirements and requests that she always respected and honored. If I had known that I could have gotten through this process so painlessly and within 7 months, I would have probably acted sooner. I would highly recommend Katherine and her team.

I was being harassed by an ex. I mean this guy was following me, threatening to kill me and left the most vile messages on my voicemail. This was after I dumped him after finding out that he was a wacko. I was terrified he'd find me alone and kill me. Finally, Mr. Cavin came to my rescue. He successfully got a restraining order and in fact this wacko followed me to my attorney's office! I arrived at Mr. Cavin's office visibly shaken and crying. Mr. Cavin immediately ran out the door and caught up with my tormentor. He apparently scared the daylights out of him by saying a bunch of legal stuff I don't understand but after that, he left me alone. That day he was my knight in shining armor! I still looked over my shoulder for this wacko for months for fear that it would start up again and eventually I moved away from Fresno because I was so afraid. But I believe that he would have left me alone after the talking to that Mr. Cavin gave him. I remain grateful for Mr. Cavin's tenacity and going the extra mile to help and protect me. He's the best!

When I hired Mr. Cavin I had been trying to battle for myself in court trying to get back four children that had wrongfully been taken away. My Ex earned over $100,000 a year and I had no earnings. He had hired a lawyer and had representation while I had tried to defend myself. I lost everything without a lawyer. I had been a homemaker for 9 years and he emptied our bank accounts leaving me barefoot and homeless. He got a restraining order that kicked me out of the house, despite the fact he knocked me out in my home, claiming I was unconscious because I was drunk. I was in jail for 19 days until all charges were dismissed by a Judge at the first hearing. But my Ex and his attorney concealed that from the Family Court and got 100% custody.
When I first contacted Mr. Cavin I didn’t have the funds to hire him, but he talked with me on the phone for 90 minutes trying to encourage and educate me anyway. A few months later I borrowed the money and that was when my life turned around. I now have my children half the time, and I am working on getting full custody.
I hadn’t seen my children for almost two years when Mr. Cavin and I worked together and gathered the evidence to prove I had been set up on a false Domestic Violence charge by my husband. The evidence showed the Judge he was a liar and I now have three days every week with my 4 children. Mr. Cavin also got the bogus restraining order dismissed and got me child support and alimony that had been withheld for 2 years. It is retroactive, and my Ex owes me thousands, AND was ordered to pay my attorney’s fees.
Mr. Cavin and his staff handled my case with the utmost professional attention. As a client I feel that had it not been for Mr. Cavin I would never have been believed by the Court. Mr. Cavin truly has been my champion fighting a battle for me that only he could have won. The true care and concern I have received from Mr. Cavin has extended beyond my case and the court room. During my case I graduated from college. Mr. Cavin and his wife surprised me at my dinner with gifts for myself and my 4 children Mr. Cavin had gotten a court order that they be present for my college graduation despite my Ex’s opposition.
My case has been in the process for two and a half years. It is not over as we are now dealing with custody evaluations. But I know that no matter how long it takes Mr. Cavin will be there till the end. When Mr. Cavin takes you on as a client he invests his heart and soul into getting you the justice you deserve. We all deserve to have a champion who will stand up for us and fight for us. If you’re in need of a champion your best choice is Kenneth Cavin, my attorney.

Family law sucks but a Good Law Team makes the difference. Thank you all!!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Leigha and everyone else I came in contact with at High&YounesLLC. I honestly don't know what I would have done without Leigha. She did such a great job on my custody case. She is professional, hard working, articulate. I really cannot thank her enough for everything she has done for me I really appreciated what an attentive listener she was and I never felt judged when sensitive material was brought to the table in my long drawn out custody case. Ms Wichelt worked with me every step of the way and I felt as though she respected and took into consideration my feelings, thoughts and opinions. She always gave great legal advice and I commended her for being reasonable and realistic about potential outcomes. As one can imagine in certain cases, such as a custody case or divorce, emotions can become heightened and she was always a sound voice of reason yet remained focused on the goal. She was always a perfect balance of professional and also very approachable. She always got back to me in a timely manner which was important to me. Leigha exceeded my needs as an attorney and I'm very grateful to her for that. I would, and have, highly recomended her and her team for any of your legal needs.

She put my mind at ease numerous times throughout my difficult divorce.

I don't even know where to start... Lauren has not only managed for me and my (equally stubborn) ex to settle out of court. She has also been absolutely AMAZING throughout the whole process. To be honest I have no words to describe how much she has helped me. She is not just a great, competent lawyer with an extremely high level of professionalism -she is also genuine, great person. Just the kind of person you want by your side dealing with important issues in your life.
Even though my divorce and even more so the child support was messed up when I first met Lauren, she instantly got the picture. She has handled the somewhat complicated matter efficiently and also had the needed knowledge of international law as well. All in all, Lauren has always been completely on top of things and I just feel so grateful to have met her. We all know that lawyers in this city can be a piece of work and maybe even add to the drama - and make the bills add up too. So to meet someone as genuine, knowledgable and reasonable as Lauren has been a true blessing.
If only I had met her sooner!

Truly an amazing team of lawyers! I worked with Lauren on a family law case, but had a little bit of help from Ron and Barbara as well. Lauren was fantastic to work with. It was not an easy or pleasant process to go through, but Lauren was right there with me the whole time. She worked so hard and was always on top of things and managed to relieve a huge amount of stress for me during the whole process. Not only is she great at her job, but you really feel like she cares, and that she was doing everything in her power to achieve the best outcome for me and my family.

I was referred to Mrs. Aileen Siclait, by a neighbor who was ranting and raving about her non-stop. How she is on point, doesn't pIay, doesn't have time to waste... She's just Amazing! Needless to say, I took that number down.
I've been told often that child support cases are commonly complicated. For instance, in cases like mine, which originated from another State, with arrears of over $20,000 were often a longshot, especially when the child has already reached majority, and the opposing party presents himself as a total looser, with no money to spare.
It took a few years, for the back pay to accumulate that much and throughout these years, he made numerous attempts to weasel himself out of paying money he owed me. It was a real struggle.
Well... Aileen turned out to be Everything my friend described, and then some. We made contact the second week of August 2022, she consulted with me in person, over the phone, exchanged a few emails and by the end of the same week, she had a proposal ready for my signature.
To make a long story short, (because I could go on and on), by April 10th, 2023, specifically 8 months later, I received a Direct Deposit of one lumpsum payment of a negotiated amount, nevertheless, one Substantial lumpsum amount, which I was about to give up on. Don't Give Up People!!!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel :)
If you are in the market for Excellence, without a doubt, Call Aileen Siclait. In addition to her knowledge, discipline and professionalism, she is also human and takes your case to heart, personally.
I take this opportunity to wish her continued success, with blessings in abundance for her and her family.

Aileen was my attorney during an extremely contentious divorce which involved prenuptial agreement under contention and all other facets of a divorce. Ailene litigated before the judge and helped me prevail. I have seen her use her knowledge in the field of divorce firsthand, and do not believe I would ever hire anyone to represent me in a family case that is not Aileen. Aside from being a great attorney, she was extremely patient with me and helped my understand the law, which is extremely complicated. I will always be thankful to her for helping through the most difficult part of my life, to-date.
