Demetra Pontisakos is an outstanding family attorney. I had been in a litigation battle with my daughter´s father since 2010 but after hiring Demetra obtained all the rights and benefits of sole legal custody as well as more time with my daughter. I had gone through 3 previous attorneys and have some hard earned knowledge on what makes an effective family attorney. Demetra’ s communication is superb, she will NEVER leave you guessing what the status your case is. She sends you copies of all documentation and lets you know immediately of any updates. She is honest and will never misguide you or make false promises. Demetra will be the strongest possible advocate for your case and will give it her complete focus during trial. Her paperwork is clean, professional and well prepared. She pays attention to each detail when drafting agreements always keeping in mind your interests and needs. Additionally, Donna Allen, her paralegal, is fantastic. Polite and professional, Donna follows up quickly, is easy to work with and as efficient as Demetra. I would hire Demetra without hesitation in the future if I need a family attorney again.

I have consulted many times with Demetra for her counsel and experience. Demetra has that rare ability to be really good as a negotiator/peace maker and as a trial attorney. She is not one to “throw gasoline on the embers”. She feels no compulsion to play “mind games” while always being fully aware of all the “mind games” that exist. In court, she is direct and to the point. I have noticed the subtle, but present, attention (and respect) judges show her when she speaks.

I hired Demetra several years ago to help gain custody of my son who was 8 years old at the time. She did not judge me. She is professional and does not make promises. She is a extraordinary Attorney!

Divorce is emotionally and financially trying time. Selecting the best attorney is a challenging first step in the long legal process. A friend told me that Ms Pontisakos not only won her divorce case but also became her dear friend. My experience was similar. Demetra researched my case thoroughly. Her recommendations were solid and realistic. She was thorough and paid attention to every detail. She was also compassionate and understanding. She made me feel that she cared for my well being and took personal interest in my case. I am eternally grateful to her for guiding me through this ordeal. I was totally satisfied with the resolution and the settlement. If you choose Ms Pontisakos to represent you in a divorce case, you will be in the best possible hands.

I was referred to Attorney Pontisakos at the time of my divorce and am thankful for it. Demetra was extremely knowledgeable of not only newly revised divorce law, but also provided guidance on dealing with the division of finances. I was confident with my representation throughout the process. I highly recommend her.

Demetra is very experienced in dealing with difficult ex's and in dealing with difficult custody battles. She worked with me to ensure that I would receive top notch legal assistance even when my budget ran low. She has continued to fight for me and my children.
