Client Testimonials

Behind every file is a family, a challenge, and a story. Nothing means more than hearing how our work made a difference.

“ The first time I walked into Natalie Javed’s office, being a young single mother now faced with having to fight for my son in a court case.

Right from that moment she proved to be professional, accessible and ready to walk me through what the next steps were going to be. Throughout my entire court case Ms. Javed provided me with in depth explanations, showed time and time again her dedication, incredible work ethic and her eagerness to ensure we would succeed in what was best for my case. Ms. Javed answered any and all of my questions throughout the entire process, she was open and easy to talk to regarding my choices and how I would like to proceed. Having worked with Ms. Javed throughout the midst of the pandemic she still remained available regardless of the circumstances due to the restrictions. It was no surprise that concluding my time with Ms. Javed I walked away with every outcome I wanted walking into her office on the first day. Ms. Javed made one of the hardest battles in my life seem incredibly simple. I highly recommend her to any and all who are in need of a family Lawyer. ”
