Scottsdale's Premier Family Law Team

"Oksana is AMAZING!!! She was referred to us by a friend and from the very first meeting I knew she was a perfect fit for us! I got divorced a few years ago and paid a cheap lawyer to draft up documents for me and went through mediation so needless to say it wasn’t great. When I encountered some major issues with my ex-husband I thought I could do it all on my own but I was wrong! During our consultation with Oksana she was so full of great information that i knew we had to hire her! When she says she will be with you from start to finish she absolutely means it! She helped us fight for what we wanted and get it. Anytime I had a question or more issues came up she was always available whether it was through email, phone or a meeting. She responds so quickly it’s impressive! I also feel like she truly cares about me and my family. She helped us settle outside of court which saved us a bunch of money and she also knew we didn’t have a lot of money so if there were things we could do instead of her she advised us of that. She also had lunch with us after one of the court dates and met us before to help ease my nerves. I am so happy to have her as my lawyer! Phoenix is a big city with a lot of lawyers so to have found her has been a true blessing!! I also love her accent!! I truly can’t say enough good things about Oksana! Even after our case was over she has emailed me a few times to just check in and see how things are going! How cool is that! Again, if you hire Oksana you will be so happy!! She is super smart and knowledgeable!! Thanks for being so amazing to us Oksana!!!!! "

"In a time of complete chaos and stress, Aaron helped me navigate through one of the most difficult times of my life. Never having been involved in a legal matter, I was very afraid. Aaron was referred to me by a friend and I am so happy that I chose him to represent me in my custody battle. Aaron always kept me informed with every matter in my case and was quick to respond when I had questions. Aaron was a blessing to find as well as his paralegal, Laura, who was always so supportive during such a hard time. I never wanted my situation to come to be what it was, but I couldn't be happier with the outcome thus far. I have felt very protected by my attorney as he always has his clients best interest above all. Aaron really cares about his clients and works hard to get the best outcomes possible. I will definitely be using Aaron again if any issues are to arise in the future."

Go getter and master in her subject
I am guy and interviewed three attorneys and finally settled on her. In short I can tell you that she is amazing attorney with many traits which will help your case like great negotiator, to the point, know her subject very well, know most of the attorney in Phoenix, reachable and always few steps ahead of you and other attorney and don't mind to travel extra on any thing. In addition she is very careful about how your money will be spend and give you upfront visibility. To be honest I can recommend her with out having any second thoughts.....

“Aaron (and his paralegal, Laura) helped me navigate a very tough high-conflict divorce case that is probably in the outliers of family law. It spanned 5 years and involved numerous false allegations of abuse, a no-contact restraining order, supervised visitation, a court appointed advisor, a comprehensive family evaluation, a therapeutic interventionist, safe haven therapists for the children, and relocation orders. Aaron helped me navigate these issues with skill and his "no nonsense" approach was incredibly helpful. Many times, the opposing counsel (of which there were numerous) would try "dirty tricks" to hamper our case, but Aaron never responded in-kind. During the trials, Aaron was not afraid to get aggressive when the situation warranted, and used his superior knowledge of case law to present compelling arguments. As a result, the judges working the case looked on our positions very favorably and I could not be happier with the results. Aaron and Laura were an amazing team and helped me keep focused and aware of possible outcomes while the wheels of justice slowly turned. They never seemed frustrated or annoyed by my many phone calls and questions, and were always very responsive to me. I would highly recommend Aaron and his team to anyone going through a high-conflict divorce.”

Wisdom and Intuitive Knowledge
I know what it feels like to need help, to hope you can find someone you can trust, to have someone on your side to be your voice during a painful time in your life. During a very challenging time in my life, Oksana provided outstanding dedication, legal knowledge and expertise when she decided to take on my case. I found Oksana because the previous counsel on my case needed to withdraw, for personal reasons, two weeks prior to my trial. I was beyond emotional, stressed and felt defeated. I had to quickly move forward and knew the moment I met with Oksana she was the one. She is in every sense strong, wise and takes great pride in her work. My case was going on 2 years but that did not stop Oksana from giving everything she had to my case. Her attention to detail and dedication to helping me and my son was such a pure blessing. Oksana guided me through a messy, tough process and was able to explain to me the steps and was compassionate and kind in her delivery. Oksana is professional, firm and organized during trial. There are very few people in life you will come across and truly believe your lives crossed paths for a reason. I immediately knew it...she honestly saved me. I promise, you will never find someone as dedicated to your case or as wise in their approach as Oksana Holder. The process of divorce and child custody is extremely tough. It is extremely emotional. Having the right counsel who is on your side, one who communicates effectively, honors your wishes respectfully but also will guide you to understand the process, presents themselves as quiet but stealth like, organized and most importantly has a kind heart. Oksana was my angel when I was going to give up, she didn’t give up on me, she choose to fight and did it with grace and integrity.

“As far as Aaron Blase goes for an Attorney, there is no other Attorney. I have had three other attorneys and nobody has come close in being able to handle my case. Aaron handled my personal situation and case with skill, expertise and extreme knowledge. I retained Aaron for Family Law and I keep him on board due to my extenuating circumstances and have had him for years now. My ex and I have one child in common and my child was conceived out of rape but born out of love. My ex sued for custody and got it due to the lack of laws in Arizona protecting me in this regard with no conviction. I utilize Aaron as a buffer against my ex due to Protective Orders, being in the Arizona Address Confidentiality Program, different types of hearings, trials and even upholding my Order of Protection when my ex would try to fight it. I had my two older children on this Order of Protection against this ex that were not related but they needed protection from him. This all tied into my Family Court Case but in different branches so to speak. Aaron helped me in getting Emergency Orders in Family Court for Temporary Sole Legal Custody of my child due to the abuse and neglect from my ex. Eventually we were going to Trial. Aaron will tell you directly what the laws are and if it could stand behind you, but he also plays devil’s advocate to show you how it could play out. He will never give you false hope or any predictions. As I was told, he does not have a crystal ball. The preparation for Trial, both his paralegal Laura and Aaron are nothing short of amazing. He spent a lot of time preparing for my Trial. At Trial, Aaron hits all major points, nothing more and nothing less and of course it’s due to the time constraints of the Courts. Aaron didn’t need to call my ex a liar, but he simply did it by only presenting the evidence, testimony, paper trails and he did not leave any holes or any stone unturned. I was blown away in court on how Aaron pieced everything together and presented my case. Aaron was a rock star in Court! Aaron went above and beyond not only representing me but my child too. In sense of the word ‘in the best interest of the child’ Aaron nailed it in my book. Aaron spoke up for a minor child who does not have a voice and this was solely based on the evidence. My words cannot express how brilliant Aaron truly is. A brilliant but humble man. Laura, I cannot say enough about her. She is sharp, efficient and her attention to detail is outstanding. A very caring lady and she is invested in you. She knows you, your story and I’ve cried and vented to her and she truly listens. She genuinely takes the time to hear you. After I hang up with her, I feel so much better and I’m able to continue about my day because I know they are handling it. My words and gratitude cannot express how grateful I am for Aaron Blase. I feel safe knowing he is my attorney and I told him he is my attorney forever. I laughed telling him ‘aren’t you lucky!’”

“Aaron walked through the whole process with me. He explained who, what, when, how and even the maybe situations with me. Often he was available for me to talk to throughout the day. Aaron made sure I was properly prepared for each appointment. He never made me feel that my questions were insignificant. Aaron is personable, professional and it appears that law comes naturally to him. He is aggressive when needed. I highly recommend Aaron!”

“I had a tough case, Aaron told me that from our first meeting. He told me It was going to be an uphill battle and there was a chance that we wouldn't win. It's like that in most relocation cases but even more so when you are relocating out of the country. Aaron and his team gave us superior legal advice and kept us informed and prepared every step of the way. Aaron did a fabulous job during our hearing, and despite this being THE toughest case our Judge had ever had since he had been on the bench (those were the Judge's exact words) the Judge ruled in our favor. I am certain that the reason why we won was because Aaron knew which parts of the law to underline in our case, and those points Aaron made in court ended up being the deciding factors in the Judes decision. I can't imagine going through this without Aaron, and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and caring attorney.”

Creative-Responsive-Invested
I can't say enough about how invested Oksana was during preparation for my son's visitation schedule hearing. The situation was unusual and complicated in that his mother moved out of the country. To further complicate the issue, the hearing was scheduled for a short video conference with only two weeks notice because of the COVID 19 restrictions. I was extremely stressed and at a loss regarding how to prepare and move forward. Oksana came up with a creative path to accomplish our goal of looking out for his best interests and giving him stability going forward, all without breaking the bank. I'm very grateful that she was so invested in the outcome and was willing to work hard on such short notice. Her counsel was invaluable and we achieved the desired result.
