"The bull dog I needed

From the moment I met Gus, I knew I was in good hands. He was not only empathetic, but patient when I needed something explained, strong for me when I felt weak and my prize fighter in the ring. He has a confidence that radiates from within and makes you feel calm and as emotionally stable as one can while going through a divorce. I truly wouldn't have wanted anyone else by my side. He was extremely professional and handled my situation with ease. I would recommend Gus 100%."

"As someone who recently navigated the challenging waters of divorce, I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal guidance provided by Gus. From the moment I stepped into their office, I knew I was in capable hands.

Gus possesses a rare blend of compassion and professionalism that immediately put me at ease during a tumultuous time in my life. They took the time to listen attentively to my concerns and goals, ensuring that every step taken was in alignment with my best interests. It was a very tough divorce with kids and very complicated finances and Gus took the time to understand every issue and create the right strategy for each hearing. His review and careful understanding of the intricate details of a very complex financial picture with multiple LLCs and investment accounts (including multiple properties) was super impressive.

Throughout the entire process, Gus demonstrated an unparalleled level of expertise and dedication. Their attention to detail and strategic approach to each aspect of my case instilled confidence in me at every turn. No stone was left unturned, and no challenge was too daunting for them to tackle head-on.

One aspect that truly sets Gus apart is their commitment to open communication and transparency. They kept me informed and involved every step of the way, patiently explaining complex legal concepts and ensuring that I felt empowered to make informed decisions about my future.

Thanks to Gus's unwavering advocacy and tireless efforts, I was able to achieve a fair and equitable resolution in my divorce settlement. Their guidance and support extended far beyond the courtroom, providing invaluable emotional support and guidance as I navigated the emotional rollercoaster of divorce.

In summary, I wholeheartedly recommend Gus to anyone in need of compassionate, competent, and effective legal representation during divorce proceedings. Their expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for their clients make them a true standout in their field."

"Gus not only played the role of zealous advocate, but also that of a protective big brother when navigating the Kafkaesque world of Family Court He guided me through the rabbit hole of custody proceedings with legal acumen and sage advice by playing chess while the others played checkers. He provided constant insight on not losing sight of the end goal by wasting energy and financial resources on the small battles. Gus genuinely cares. When dealing with a verbally abusive ex, he counseled me like a brother and admittedly, often made me laugh (when my inclination was to cry), reminding me to stay strong.. He possesses a unique combination of heart, humor, and legal acumen that got me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I highly recommend this stellar lawyer and human."

"Gus was exactly the person I needed to guide me through an unexpected divorce. He carefully listened then provided the insight I needed to make intelligent decisions...which is not always easy in the moment. Gus takes the time to understand the full fact set and carefully advises along the way. He knows when it makes sense to be firm on issues but more importantly when it makes sense to concede to save time and money. For me, this all happened during the peak of Covid-19 and we conducted all meetings over zoom, which made it very convenient. I would strongly recommend his services for anyone going through a divorce."

— Anthony Lando

"I can't recommend Gus Dimopoulos highly enough, he was a lifesaver during my divorce. Going through a divorce is undoubtedly one of the most challenging experiences one can face, but Gus made the process as smooth and manageable as possible. The financial issues in my case were extremely complicated as I own a complex business and there were significant 8-figure valuation issues to deal with. Complicating matters were disagreements with custody. Gus took the time to understand the concerns, and managed to balance the matter that was often charged with children’s issues against the level-headed approach to the financial aspects of the case.

He managed to bring about the settlement that I wanted by stepping foot in court only once. On the one occasion we did have to go to Court, Gus completely controlled the room and got me the result I needed on that particular issue. In fact, I think my ex was happy to settle after watching Gus in court during that one appearance.

I could not be happier and more grateful with the results he was able to achieve, and we continue to have a friendship long after the ink on the settlement agreements dried."

— Marco Mendez

— Barry

"I cannot recommend Gus and his firm highly enough. I had no idea what I was getting into with my divorce, and Gus was exactly who I needed on my side. His knowledge of the Westchester family court system and all the players is invaluable. As a lawyer myself, I was impressed with his breadth of experience and family law knowledge. More importantly, his warmth, practical good sense and humor will get you through the toughest times. Don’t hesitate to hire Gus and his team!!!"

"The best feeling going through one of the worst situations is when someone says “I got you” Gus wears a cape and is truly one of a kind. He is the best attorney. He will make you feel comforted when you are scared. He will make you feel safe when you are fearful. When he says he’s got you, you truly are in the best hands. Trust the process but overall trust Gus. He is a powerhouse attorney who will have your back. I am very thankful for what he has done for me and my future for my family.

— Peter

"Gus’s goal is to resolve your case so you can move on with your life. He will present you with a fair end game and work toward getting there as quickly as possible. Gus was my second attorney and after my ex husband fired his third attorney we sat down with Gus and finalized our agreement. I am grateful to Gus for helping me navigate divorce court and settlement. My ex husband feels the same. There are few divorce attorneys like Gus. He’s not inexpensive but in the end he will close the deal, save you money and treat both parties fairly. Today my ex husband and I share custody and parenting and get along well and are each engaged to be married. We are happy and moving forward with our lives thanks to Gus."

— Rachel

"While divorce proceedings are a challenge for most, one should be mindful of who represents you. When interviewing potential counsel, it is advisable to meet with several in order to find someone who will keep you strong, focused and considerate of what battles are worth the fight vs. those that can cost you to lose the war of life. Gus carefully guided me through the arduous, judicial process where equitable distributions are not always equitably fair. For those of us who were/are the bread-winners, finding attorneys who carefully reminds us of the importance of getting to the finish line - FREEDOM - is crucial. Gus helped me see & make my way through the tough path to brighter horizons ahead. Thanks GUS!"

— Sophia

"My case was complicated from the beginning. When Gus heard my story, while I was in need of guidance, he told me what needed to be done in details and he immediately made me feel comforted and I knew I could trust him. He guided me step by step with patience and from just the way he speaks, you knew he is the best in the field! He is intelligent, meticulous, confident, friendly and witty. You can sense that he can take on any challenges and you can hide behind this charismatic gentleman and he would take the pistol bullets for you with ease and fight back with machine guns. I had the confidence in him the whole time that he would get the job done eventually, and he did. The custody portion was very difficult. While my ex threw everything she could at me with verbal attacks and obstructive actions, Gus gave me all the support I could have and he was available for immediate live help on the phone whenever I needed. The finance portion was also very challenging because of multiple Medical offices that I run plus multiple properties throughout the marriage that I own. He fought for me hard and we came out victorious. From the beginning, Gus told me that if I could settle things on my own, please try, and he would only get involved if I needed the help or the negotiation cannot go through smoothly between me and my ex. Contrary to the other side, who forbid the client to make any deal with me privately, which clearly shows how Gus is very fair and honest and not money hungry. To make it brief, if I were to go back in time and go through the divorce process again, I would still hire Gus to fight for me without second thought. He is the best you can find out there and worth every dollar you spend. I am forever thankful of his professional and personal helps."

"I went to Gus when I was dealing with a difficult time in my marriage. He helped me to understand what my options were and gave me all of the information and guidance that gave me the confidence to move forward with a divorce. As I was working through the process, he answered my questions with kindness and genuine concern for the happiness of me and my family. He was always available to help me with advice and guidance that helped me remain strong at a very difficult time in my life. Having him “in my corner” was essential to me finding the path to my new happiness. I am very thankful that a friend referred him to me, and I will certainly do so for any friend who needs similar guidance. Thank you Gus Dimopoulos!"

— Ashley

"My divorce was a scary time for me and I felt very alone, but the minute I spoke with Gus, I knew I was not alone. No matter what obstacles I had to battle, I knew I could reach out and Gus was always available to answer any questions and help me to navigate this process. This has been the saddest time in my entire life and Gus understood that. The only thing I can be happy about is that I know I had the best possible person to represent me and I am very thankful for that. I can not express my gratitude enough."

"I can't say enough about how incredibly wonderful Gus and his entire team is. I have been through a very long and agonizing divorce and Gus was there every step of the way, making sure that I was protected and felt at ease during the entire process. He always had my best interest at heart and was incredibly generous and understanding when working with me on what I could afford. He is a shark in the the court room but a kind and compassionate lawyer when it comes to supporting his clients. To me, that is exactly who you want to represent you during such an emotional and difficult time in your life. Thank you Gus, Michael and Analia for your hard work, determination and dedication to me and my case. I couldn't have gotten through any of this without all of YOU!"

— anonymous

"Like most people entering a divorce, I was nervous and anxious about how things would be taken care of and handled. Upon first consultation and conversation with Gus, I knew he had my best interest in mind and was going to take care of me. He explained every step of the way and was available to speak to whenever I needed him. Any time I panicked or had a new concern Gus would take the time to explain the law and my options, always making me feel at ease. For such a hard period in people’s lives, he made it easier because I trusted him."

— Michelle

"Gus immediately inspired strength in me to never ever compromise on equal custody as a father. He negotiated several aspects of what turned out to be a very difficult divorce case, and communicated clearly, authoritatively and assertively in court. I interviewed many other lawyers in Westchester, but no one matched Gus's passion as my advocate and his ability to provide a constant sense of reassurance and realism."

— anonymous

"Going through a divorce is hard. I was married 38 years, raised two children, and did not work outside the home. The fear, the trauma, and the emotional impact of 2 years of court battles is devastating. Throughout this process, Gus was my soldier and my support. He explained everything in terms I understood, he stood strong to make sure I would be able to live after the divorce, When the opposition went low, Gus remained professional and supportive. I cannot imagine going through this with any other attorney. Gus was my knight in shining armor! He got me through this and move on to a better life. I highly recommend him."

— Jennifer

"Mr. Dimopoulos is a consummate professional who is both very empathetic and reassuring at a very stressful time, while being very knowledgable and straight forward with the facts and the reality of what a divorce entails. What I appreciated most in my experience with Mr. Demopoulos was that I felt that he went out of his way to be not only available and reassuring to me in my initial period of anxiety and indecision, but that over time he tailored his services to my needs and fully supported me when some of my needs were not "classic" and I needed to take an alternate route."

"I have known Gus for 4 years and worked on several cases with him including my own. He is effective. He knows the system, has great expert witnesses, and is super efficient (ie does not overbill). Most importantly he is realistic about outcomes and how to negotiate for the best possible solution at the lowest possible risk and cost. You could not ask for more in an attorney."

"Debbie, Scarsdale Gus is the GREATEST. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing a divorce lawyer, do yourself a favor and call Gus immediately. Gus is the BEST lawyer and a great person. My divorce was taking a very long time and was extremely stressful and expensive. My previous counsel was trying to pressure me to settle, and I truly felt hopeless. I had my first conversation and then consultation with Gus, and I immediately felt better. At the eleventh hour, when most people would not even bother to try, he stepped in and very quickly took complete control of my divorce process."
— Debbie

He is not only a great attorney he has become a good friend. It was a hard life experience for me and I needed someone I could trust and would consider my family circumstances.

"Gus is a Rock Star! I hired Gus to help me navigate some difficult post- divorce court proceedings. I had been to court many times over the course of ten years. My prior attorneys were fine, but I never felt completely protected and confidant until Gus. His knowledge of the inner workings of the system, combined with intuition and incredible preparedness were more than impressive. He is a rock star and I'm grateful for his fierce protection of my children and assets. You can't find a more capable attorney"

"Gus is the best! He was kind, compassionate, insightful, and extremely knowledgeable. He answered my questions before I even asked them. I walked in having never consulted with a divorce attorney before and was a bit nervous. I left feeling very well-informed, supported and on the right path. He was frank, honest and kind. He made what was already a difficult situation, painless and easy. And I never had the opportunity to cry, because he's THAT good. Thank you, Gus!!"
— Elizabeth
"I was referred to Gus from a friend and cannot say enough about how wonderful Gus is! The divorce process is extremely stressful but Gus made my life so much easier. My initial lawyer felt the need to contact me daily with trivial updates, during my hectic work day. I appreciate that Gus first contacted me with email summaries of his dealings with my spouse's lawyer and then, after reviewing the emails, I was able to discuss my concerns, at a time that was convenient for both of us, even if it was 10 pm. I felt that Gus always had my best interest at hand, including keeping me calm. Gus never made me feel ignorant if I did not understand the legal jargon. He always took the time to explain the details of any documents presented to me, as well as clearly explaining what to expect during the legal process. I particularly appreciated his office space. The office is not a typical law office with uptight staff in suits. The office has a calming sense of zen notable as soon as one enters. His staff always knew who I was when I called. His junior associate, Andriana, always made herself accessible when Gus was on trial. Gus is well poised, well mannered and always positive. One needs that sense of calm during the stress of divorce! I had total confidence in him and his work ethics show excellent character. I will always be grateful to Gus for his guidance and hard work. I am also happy to call Gus a friend! Gus is awesome!"
— Valerie
"I consulted with Gus and was not disappointed! First time meeting him I was a little uneasy but he was quickly able to calm my anxiousness and I felt extremely comfortable discussing my case with him. I attended my first court appearance with Gus but for the second, Andriana was my counsel. At a time when I was insecure about the outcome of my child support settlement, she was able to advocate and skillfully fight my case to reach a satisfactory settlement. Gus and his entire team excelled in their professionalism and consistently addressed my many questions and concerns in a timely manner. There was always someone in the office readily accessible and available to help in regards to my case. Gus and his associates exceeded all of my expectations!"
