About Gabrielle Hartley, Esq.

Gabrielle Hartley works from Smith Street in Brooklyn and leads with mediation rather than litigation, which is a different service at a different price and is the thing to know about this practice before comparing it with the others here. She publishes a flat rate and writes about what a divorce costs.

132 reviews at 5.0. Her site has a domain authority of 55, the highest in this ranking by a wide margin, which is what writing a book about divorce does to a website. It names no attorney other than her own name and publishes none of the trust pages pillar D looks for beyond a privacy policy.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

5 average over 132 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Gabrielle Hartley, Esq charge?
Gabrielle Hartley, Esq publishes a flat fee published fee. The rate itself is not published, so ask for it in writing, along with how case expenses are handled and whether they come out of the recovery before or after the fee.
Does Gabrielle Hartley, Esq offer a free consultation?
Gabrielle Hartley, Esq does not publish a free consultation on the pages we read. That is not the same as charging for one, and it is worth asking.
Where does Gabrielle Hartley, Esq have offices?
Gabrielle Hartley, Esq publishes one office, in Brooklyn. Addresses and the Google listing behind each one are on this profile under Offices.
Who are the attorneys at Gabrielle Hartley, Esq?
Gabrielle Hartley, Esq names no attorney on the public pages we could read. That is a gap in what the firm publishes rather than a statement about who works there, and it is why the licensure and discipline checks on this profile have nothing to run against.
What has Law Firm Listings verified about Gabrielle Hartley, Esq?
Gabrielle Hartley, Esq scores 52 and sits at Listed. Passed: footprint. Did not pass: entity registration and website. Could not be answered from any public source and therefore counts neither for nor against the firm: licensure and discipline. Every row of the scorecard above names where the value came from and when it was read. Nothing on this profile was supplied by the firm for payment, and no placement here can be bought.
