Gary did a great job of getting my alimony adjusted down. He ran down about every possible scenario for my case including how each of the potential judges would react. My case played out pretty much the way he described it. Even though the judges make the decisions, Gary runs the court room. He was in complete control of everything that happened in the courtroom during my case. The judge ruled in my favor and we won. Not only did most of my arrears get erased, along with a contempt claim from my ex, my alimony got cut in half. After doing the math I will save over $150,000. Gary is a high energy guy that is in control. He may be working for you but He is the boss. I was a little uncomfortable with how aggressive he is at first, but I am so glad I listened to him and followed his advice. He is exactly the person I would want to defend me.

Too much spent on useless motions. Gary seemed to interested in the money more than the best interests of my child.

Attorney Trysman is by FAR the worst attorney i have ever dealt with. He DOES NOT have your best interest in mind. All he care about is filing motions so he can run your retainer down to zero and then asks for more. He has a reputation as being a bulldog, however, he is a bulldog defending himself, NOT his clients

I used attorney Gary Traystman as a tool to get my wife to back off and settle. It was his name that I bought because I needed to strike fear into her. He served that purpose well. My observations on what I got are: He is rude, a bully, he didn't have my best interests in mind, he ran up my bill. I had to put it in writing my limits and what I expected. I had to do most of the work myself, including division of personal property, negotiations of terms. Once he saw I placed financial limits on him, he passed me off to a lesser attorneys billing me 300.00 an hour (for 5 hours including travel) on the day of my divorce while we sat there and waited for the 9 minute process to be held. Stay away from this man, he will "grind" your finances into the ground.

6 years ago my husband of 30 years decided he no longer wanted to be married. I was quite traumatized and feeling quite vulnerable and alone after the breakup. I hired Traystman on recommendation from a friend who only later told me how rude he was. I have MS and explained to him that I needed him to speak slower so I could retain the info that he was giving. If I dared to ask him to repeat himself he became almost as verbally abusive as my ex husband. I always left his office feeling shaken and even worse than when I walked in. He was annoyed that I had to write things down and said that taking more time would mean more money. A few times I tried hard to fight back tears, not from the divorce as much as from the way he was treating me, and when he saw this he would get upset and even ruder. You might wonder why I didn't switch Att. I was told I could not get any of the $5000. back. I was barely represented in court and after he walked away without a word. This review IS from true!

I hired Attorney Traystman for post divorce and custody orders. Attorney Traystman was extremely knowledgable and fully prepared in my case. Attorney Traystman went beyond with preparing himself and most importantly myself for trial. I never felt more represented. Attorney Traystman communicates effectively and you always know where you stand. Attorney Traystman goes to the extra mile in preparing the case. Attorney Traystman prepares you mentally and emotionally for trial. Attorney Traystman is up front with you during the whole process. You always know where you stand. I would highly recommend attorney Traystman.

Gary is by far the best atty out there. I hired him in a child custody/ support modification case. He fought for me, stood up for me and would not let the opposing atty's "bullying tactics" effect me or the case. When we finally started our trial I was amazed by how he controlled the courtroom and totally shut out the other atty. if you want to win he is your only choice. Don't waste your time with the other atty's. if you were to walk around the courthouse and talk to the clerks, Marshalls etc off the record they will tell you he is the best.

Some may find this attorney worthy, I have personally found him to be unethical, unreliable and extremely over priced for the service he provides. Shame that more of his clients aren’t involved with providing a response to his performance here. A review of his small claims cases found online, can clue you on the number of clients wanting to challenge his charges for poor service. This attorney adds to the problem by filing multiple motions which are often unnecessary and leads to delays and unnecessary charges. He has no respect for the clients he is taking this money from. I have personally witnessed him lie in open court in order to sway opinions misleadingly. For that, Mr. Traystman gets a big “0” in respect, and "0" in ethical class. If you value your hard earned money, you will do yourself a HUGE favor by doing your homework and contact some of the dissatisfied clients on the CT Judicial Branch website or his small claims cases. You would be well advised to seek other counsel.

I have worked for attorneys for many years. However, when my husband needed an attorney for a personal issue, we went to Gary Traystman. It was a simple, uncontested probate matter which he has dragged out for almost a year now. Never calls us or takes our calls, but will send a letter telling us to call him, makes us feel like idiots when we ask questions and he sends us bills constantly. And he had the nerve to bad mouth the attorney on the other side. We gave him $15,000.00 dollars in January which he was supposed to turn over to the defendant, he held it in escrow for months, we don't even know to this date what has happened to it. He assured us on May 22, the matter would be resolved within the month. Haven't heard a thing from him today. His staff is extremely rude also. Somebody should file a grievance against this man as he is highly unethical. Come to think of it maybe we will. RUN, RUN, RUN as fast as you can away from this greedy man.

Billed a total of $18,000 for custody case of 13 year old son who wanted to go live with his father. My son was telling the father and mother that he wanted to live with them both. Dragged it out almost 2 years in court. Guardian Ad Litem bill was and additional $6000. We SHOULD HAVE CONTINUED TO RAISE MY SON. However, this was dragged on too long. Not sure how I feel about the whole thing as it was Oct 2005 and at the time, I felt taken by everyone. He seemed very knowledgeable but seemed to promise more than he could deliver in the end. If someone had only told me that it would basically be my son's choice I wouldn't have spent $18,000 with Mr Traystman. He makes you feel bad about calling him, stupid for asking questions. I thought that was good at first as he would treat the other party like that, but...
