A consummate professional who guided me through a complex divorce

Navigating my high-conflict divorce was one of the most daunting experiences of my life. From our first consultation, Sogand Zamani provided not just legal expertise, but genuine understanding and strategic clarity. Her deep, two-decade focus exclusively on family law was immediately evident. She expertly handled intricate financial disclosures and sensitive custody discussions, always aiming for a resolution that prioritized my children's stability. While fully prepared to litigate, her recognized skill in mediation and collaborative law created a path to a settlement that spared us all the trauma of a courtroom battle. Her background from GW Law and Harvard informs a nuanced, intelligent approach. Sogand and her team at Zamani & Associates were consistently responsive, meticulous, and compassionate. The outcome was fair and sustainable, allowing me to move forward with peace of mind. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone facing family legal matters.
