I don’t approach divorce with an “I’m so sorry for your loss” attitude. Not only does that not help our clients, but it just doesn’t ring true. Yes, divorce is stressful; you are essentially paying someone to “divide you in half” and it will take time to move through it – but I view this process as a path to clients’ future happiness, a fresh start. And I get to lead them there, by enabling them to make sound decisions and helping to ensure the health and security of their children and finances. 

Nazli Sater has almost 30 years of experience as a family law and divorce attorney, with a focus on complex divorce matters, asset division and business valuation, custody and parenting decisions, alimony and child support, as well as both “prenup” and “postnup” agreements.

    testimonials

    “…. Coincidentally, I met my divorce attorney nearly 8 years prior to my actual divorce.  I first met Nazli Sater picking up my dry cleaning and began chatting while waiting for our clothing. At that time,  I made a mental note to myself what an honest, articulate and generally friendly person  she was and if I was ever to get divorce I would want her to represent my interests.Regretfully, I ended up contemplating a divorce in February 2023 and the first  person I contacted was Nazli Sater.  Nazli’s  initial consultation was essentially a strategy meeting of how to protect myself and my financial interests from an inequitable settlement. We were nearly prepared to finalize the “microwave” divorce within 3 months but experienced a lot of feet dragging from the other side which extended the settlement date.

    However, the extra time allowed us to develop an equitable division of assets  and liabilities without much legal wrangling and run away fees.

    Subsequently, I would highly recommend Nazli and her partners Roquia, John and Bill to represent your interests. ” – Robert G.

    “Nazli Sater and Roquia Draper are the dream team of Family Law! During this difficult time, their lights shined brightly and lead me to a peaceful resolution.” – Mark M.

    “I just want to give you a sincere thank you for all you have done for me. The process was completely foreign to me. You helped me be comfortable with what was going on, but most of all you are extremely talented, compassionate and hard working individuals. Thanks again.” – Derrin

    “I had significant post divorce issues that included parenting time, child support and uninsured medical costs.  After meeting with several lawyers from top firms, I knew quickly in my initial meeting with Nazli Sater that she was the lawyer I needed to hire.  Nazli developed a legal strategy to obtain my family’s goals and successfully navigated us through the court system.  We were able to achieve an outcome that was better than I had anticipated.  Nazli is an expert in family law and a highly skilled negotiator.  Nazli was very attentive, responsive and actually cared about my family.  I highly recommend Nazli Sater.” – Bernice M.

    “I’m very happy and thankful for your devoted, aggressive when needed and responsive representation. I definitely made the right choice in selecting Warner and am extremely happy with the representation I received from Roquia and Nazli.” – Matt W.

    “My mother was involved in a very difficult divorce after 52 years of marriage. The support she received from Nazli, Lucy, and Cindy was terrific. These ladies really work as a team in terms of communication and accessibility. There was always someone that could be contacted directly and questions/issues were handled with extreme professionalism. Always the first consideration was my mother’s perspective. Her wishes were always the driving concern with the legal team. There were several occasions when immediate action was required and Nazli was able to juggle her commitments (not sure how she even did it!) but she really came through at the absolute critical time for my mother. This high level of dedication and genuine concern for their clients is what I will remember most about working with this talented team!” – Kimberly P.

    “As a male, initiating my divorce, I felt that my best chances for an equitable outcome were to retain the services of a female attorney. Ms. Nazli Sater with the firm Warner Norcross + Judd LLP was recommended. At my initial consultation, I became quickly impressed with her conduct, professionalism and honesty. Throughout the entire process she always pursued actions that were in my best interest yet maintained a sense of realistic fairness. She is extremely knowledgeable and offered advice whenever appropriate. More importantly, she was very empathetic towards my situation and the difficult time I was experiencing. There was a demonstrated concern for me, not just as a client, but as a person. In retrospect, I truly appreciated her balance of legal skills and abilities combined with a genuine compassion.” – Nick M.

    “I interviewed three other attorneys before selecting Nazli Sater to represent me during my divorce. Without a doubt, it was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Through the entire process I had the attentive support of Nazli and I felt like I had her entire team behind me to take care of my every need.” – Jeff S.
