Paula A. Menar

I reached out Menar & Menar because I was losing custody of my child. Ms. Menar was able to stop this and I recovered the custody of my child. She was my only hope when I thought I was going to lose my child. She went above and beyond and did everything she could to ensure a great outcome. I’m so gr...ateful & highly recommend her. KM

I hired this office for a very simple case regarding visitation and child support. I was told multiple times that the ease of the case would not allot for more money than the amount of my retainer agreement and that I would get a refund. I paid the retainer agreement in full. I supplied the supportin...g documentation including requesting previous records myself, weeks before the case. Somehow they still only filed my counter application a day before my court date. Court was ok, although I felt it could have been much shorter however the attorney didn’t do anything to stop the other party from rambling on and on. After court I received an email stating I’d hear from the legal assistant regarding my refund. Instead I received a bill for $2,000 extra dollars. I looked through the itemization, shocked but accepting I am no expert. The billed items charged hundreds of dollars for my inquiry with the office (before I even decided about being represented), phone calls that were only few minutes long where I was charged an hour or more (I matched to my phone records), emails that didn’t ever happen, record requests where I had supplied the records myself, and several other items that were entirely made up. I disputed the charges, providing my own records (like my phone bill and email record that in no way could have been fabricated), and was told that I didn’t understand how things worked. I offered to compromise and started doing my own research. It turned out this is a repeat issue with this office and now I have to file a formal dispute that will end up with me in court/mediation again. Be careful- I guarantee you’ll be overcharged if they think you can pay it.

I contacted Menar & Menar because I was losing custody of my son. Ms. Menar was able to stop this and I recovered the custody of my son. Ms. Menar was my only hope when I thought I was going to lose my son. My experience with Menar & Menar was stupendous through and through. Ms. Menar knows he...r craft and walks the extra mile with you. I was represented better than I could have imagined. My needs were put first and I was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained to me. She was completely understanding, professional and worked very diligently to the end. Ms. Menar fought hard for me. She went above and beyond and did everything she could to ensure a great outcome. I could not have asked for a better law firm or attorney. I am so grateful and I highly recommend her and her firm.

I hired Paula to represent me for my restraining order, divorce and custody battle. She truly is very efficient and so experienced. The whole process was very long but I never felt as Paula was not looking out for me. She was the voice that I never knew I had. There were many days where I lost hope b...ut in the end she made sure I got what was right for me. She helped me grow and she provided me the assistance I needed. Not only was she able to defend me from an unjust accusation, her calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. Paula has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though we faced challenges, she did not falter. Her thorough research provided us the pathway we needed to rise to victory. I will only recommend Paula as I have never been nor have I ever seen anyone treated better. I am proud to be a Paula's client and will continue to retain them for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands.
