I had a great experience with this family attorney. Her prices are very reasonable, and she is very down-to-earth and easy to talk to. She went step-by-step through all of my questions and explained everything clearly and patiently. My situation was very challenging, but she gave me amazing guidance and thoughtful advice, which really helped me understand my options. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate family attorney.

There are many lawyers who can do the job and finding a lawyer to do the job was not the issue for me. The issue for me was finding a lawyer who actually cares about me rather than a lawyer who would just process my case and get paid. What stands out about Ekaterina Berman is that she cares. I also highly recommend Ekaterina as a very knowledgeable and professional attorney. Her expertise reaches far beyond family law. Ekaterina helped me defend a case of civil harassment. Plaintiff made up stories about me and fabricated evidence. Ekaterina drafted an anti-SLAPP motion, appeared in court, and persuaded the judge to dismiss the case with prejudice. I am very grateful for what Ekaterina has done for me. Most important, I am glad that I found a lawyer who treats me as a person and not as a paycheck.
I express my deep gratitude to attorney Ekaterina Berman for standing by me through my difficult and contentious divorce. I thank her for her loyalty, commitment, and dedication to my case and to me. I left an emotionally abusive marriage with nothing. The most important thing for me in my case was the custody of my children. We had our first hearing in June of 2018 during which Ekaterina helped me secure a favorable support order that made it possible for my children and me to finally find a stable home. When there was a delay on the part of my ex-husband's employer in implementing the wage garnishment for support, Ekaterina tracked down the payroll department manager who processed the wage garnishment. In July of 2018 we had another hearing and an emergency screening at the court, after which the judge granted me legal and physical custody of my children. I am thankful that my children and I now have a stable home and we are moving on with our lives. My ex-husband is now being held accountable for fulfilling his obligation to support our children. My case had it all: restraining orders, an emergency screening, enforcement of support orders, and appeals. The most challenging part was the obstreperous opposing party, and Ekaterina deals with him with grace and toughness when appropriate. I observed that Ekaterina has the intelligence and tenacity to handle any challenge that came our way. I would not be able to go through such an emotional and time consuming process without a professional like Ekaterina who fought for me and for my children and won.
Ekaterina helped me with a child custody dispute. I needed to contact her on several occasions even while working with another attorney and her response was always quick, on point and fair. She is not the person who will sugar-coat the reality of the situation and that turned out to be very important to save nerves and money. She will focus on the issue at hand and provide realistic potential solutions in legal realm based on years of experience in family court system. She seems to be familiar with previous cases, judges and opposing counselors. Ekaterina's billings are more than fair and her generosity in my particular case is much appreciated. Thank you, Ekaterina!
