My divorce case

Janice is an excellent lawyer with a lot of compassion for me and my son. She wanted the best for me and my son not only as my lawyer but as a caring person. She would always get on the phone with me at any time if I had a problem or call me right back. She made a very difficult time very comforting.... I never looked at her as my lawyer but as a close friend who has my back and is there for me. Janice also worked with me to pay my bill off in monthly payments which was very helpful. The best lawyer ever!!!

Custody/ visitation/ order of protection

I highly recommend!!!! If I can put 10 stars she is deserving of them all. From the consultation to last email communication with other attorney, attorney Roven made sure I was able to get everything I wanted and if not she was willing to fight for it!! I used Ms. Roven for custody/ visitation and OO...P in court. Very professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I was able to learn from her as well. I promise you if your looking for an attorney that doesn’t just make u feel like a client and will get the job done.. I’m so thankful to have worked with Ms.Roven

Posted by anonymous | November 28, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent lawyer. Awesome person.

I could not have gotten through my contentious & exhausting divorce process without the guidance & support of my attorney, Janice. Janice is grounded, smart, & fair. She will advocate for you wholeheartedly. She knows the law well & does not get her feathers ruffled in the face of drama or challenge.... She is patient & sensitive to the emotional rollercoaster of divorce. She was a rock for me throughout. Because of Janice I got what I was entitled to in my settlement & am very satisfied with the outcome. I recommend Janice without reservation. She genuinely cares about her clients & you can trust that with her you are in good hands.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
