Testimonials
John became involved in our case after more than two years of fighting the system. He very quickly
familiarized himself with the file and began to fight for what is right. He is extremely focused and is
able to keep that focus no matter what is thrown at him. I am grateful for all that he has done to
assist us in our fight.
I cannot thank you enough. This past Monday I got my Ghet (Jewish Divorce and right to remarry
religiously within my faith.) Obviously this was an open miracle from God - my ex-husband vowed
throughout my marriage to make life as impossible as possible, would I divorce him - but the miracle
came into fruition due to your hard work of creating the ghet law. Thanks to you, I have been freed
from "prison". I cannot imagine the reward you will ultimately get from the many, many women you
have freed from captivity. May God bless you, your family forever after.
Mr. Syrtash is extremely knowledgable and genuinely cares about my family situation. He helped me
achieve results that my previous lawyers were unable to accomplish. Mr. Syrtash established a very
good relationship with my ex-husband's lawyer and was therefore able to negotiate many matters
over the phone. He was empathetic about my financial situation and tried to save me money
whenever possible.

John Syrtash is an excellent lawyer that I would recommend to everyone. I have worked with him in
the handling of my divorce for many years. He always answers calls and emails promptly. He is
professional, respectful, and compassionate and genuinely concerned for his clients' well-being.
Thank you for everything you did throughout my divorce process. You are a lawyer who handled it
with dignity, truth and understanding. If you ever need a reference or anything in the future feel free
to askwhen my separation began, I told my friend I need 2 things: a beautiful apartment and a
great lawyer. I was blessed to find both. Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into my
case.
