I cannot speak highly enough of the excellent experience I've had with ADZ Law; Melissa Fox, in particular. Her approach is empathetic, candid, comprehensive, and direct. She offered balanced perspectives and guidance, and I recommend her to anyone experiencing issues related to harassment, intimidation, and domestic violence in all its forms. I'm grateful I had Melissa to help me navigate a painful and frightening experience with compassion and clarity, and I'll continue to seek her counsel.

The ADZ Law team were wiling to take on a small, uncomplicated legal matter for me that was "too small" for the other family law firms I had contacted. Despite being a small client my issue was handled professionally and courteously, and I am very happy with the solution they crafted.

I worked with both Lauren Zorfas, Tulin and Aylin. They were beyond supportive, caring and attentive in a very contentious move away and divorce. There are no words to describe my appreciation of all the firms efforts. I was safe in their hands and confident they could get the outcome I most desired. You are in good hands with these folks. I was lucky to have them on my side.
