Mixed review

I went through a ten month family law case with Jeannie, and initially I couldn't possibly fit enough good things to say about Mrs. Michalski's practice in a review. Initially Jeannie seemed extremely articulate in family law. We sat down and she truly listened and every question and concern, and eve...n concerns that may seem trivial were answered. She took the time to understand every nuance of the case. Jeannie was that calm voice in the storm and tactfully and skillfully advocates for her clients. With regret some things were not properly handled and the case became a real mess over time and I'm not sure Jeannie is the best fit if one is going to litigate in family court. Such venues are a real quagmire and crap shoot at best is what people should understand. Always try to settle your differences is the best advice I can give, especially for men in family court. All said and done I'd probably not hire Jeannie again. At the very least she takes on too many clients and can't really dedicate herself to winning a case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
