Meet Nandishi

I was at a very low point in my separation when I was referred to Nandishi Bekah from Stanchieri Family Law. I had to give up custody of my daughter and my separation was at the 4 year mark and continuing. Nandishi took my case and assured me that she will put this all to a close and that she will make sure I get my life and freedom back. Not only did she deliver that but she has brought the smile back to my face. She was able to finalize my separation and fully execute my divorce with ease! She made me feel comfortable and made me feel like I actually mattered and was heard. She is an excellent example of humility and compassion. The attention she gives and the passion she has for family law is truly evident in her nature. She takes pride in making sure you are never alone in the fight. It was truly a pleasure to have met Nandishi and to have her as well as Stanchieri Family Law be my support system through my entire divorce and separation. Thank you for everything that you’ve done for me!

The Stanchieri Family Law team always put things into perspective when dealing with complex situations. They are honourable and compassionate, especially dealing with very complicated family situations. Julie Stanchieri (Partner), William Francis (Lawyer) and Ashley Kennedy (Managing Clerk) are remarkable, professional and exceptional!

I had the pleasure of working with Nandishi on a recent file and she was opposing counsel. This one is a special one for me because Nandishi was my associate when she first started her career almost a decade ago. She was then, brilliant, kind and sweet, and I couldn’t be more proud of the lawyer she’s grown to be now. In my dealings with her on this file, I got to see first hand what she taught me all those years ago, that compassion, understanding and perspective are everything in getting to a resolution. This matter was high conflict and instead of fueling conflict like many lawyers tend to do, she was poised and graceful in her demeanor, tactful in her approach and genuine in her want to resolve this for the benefit of not just her client, but mine too. I have learned from her much more than she learned from me and I couldn’t be more proud. I have no doubt that she will continue to show us, the essence of a GREAT family law lawyer. I remember keenly one thing she said in negotiations that changed the course of this matter and it was this: “Reesa, it’s not what your client wants, but ask her why she wants it. I bet you if you ask her why, she won’t have a reason and that’s your opportunity to get her to see why this might not be the best course of action”. I did ask my client why. There was no why. Once that barrier broke down, we opened up lines of communication that seemed impossible. This is Nandishi’s gift. Highly highly recommend.

Stanchieri Family Law has been a tremendous support for me while navigating the divorce process. I have been working with Nandishi Bekah and have been extremely impressed with her professionalism, legal knowledge, communication skills and ability to navigate complex situations. She has also been a great support personally and was always available to explain my options to me and strategies for moving forward as my matter evolved. I have also worked with Amit Dror and appreciated the value of his strategic guidance and experience. I am grateful to the entire team at Stanchieri who have assisted with my matter over the years and their ability to make a very stressful situation manageable.
