Jill Rosenthal

I hired Ms. Rosenthal through Cordell & Cordell and worked with her for one month before telling her I would not be pursue my divorce through her. The cost was $3000 for not one piece of paper that was correct and no filing with the court. The agreement had mine & my wife's names spelled wrong, someo...ne else's child custody agreement language within it, and she did not understand what an "amicable" divorce was. It seems as though she wanted to bill me by dragging out the process and pursuing some kind of contested divorce (not what me or my wife wanted), and I question whether or not her firm preys on men who are going through a divorce. Needless to say I had to pay $3,000, only spoke to her two times, and she billed me for fixing the mistakes I pointed out, none of which did she ever file with the court. I learned my lesson and hired someone who specializes in uncontested divorce, to my satisfaction!

I am very appreciative of the quality of service and attention to detail that I received from Jill Rosenthal during my latest of many ongoing custody court appearances. I was very impressed with how I was treated considering my unconventional appearance (being 6'4", bearded and heavily tattooed has ...advantages and unfortunately, several disadvantages). Jill expressed genuine concern for my situation and understood how important my relationship with my 3 year old daughter is to me. The positive outcome of my latest "battle" will certainly encourage me to recommend her in the future if I find a friend or associate in a similar predicament.

I retained Jill's services for a child custody matter, and had consulted with her twice before that date. I must say that I am extremely pleased with her services! Even though I am certain that she is very busy, she has always made me feel like my case was a priority for her. She has always taken t...he time to explain every step in the process, and has shown exemplary ability to formulate a plan and execute it. Jill does what she says she will do, when she says she will do it. This type of reliability is hard to find these days. Jill takes copious notes and has a fantastic memory; her attention to detail is second to none. My daughter has special needs and she has gone above and beyond to try to ensure that my daughter is kept healthy and comfortable while not in my care. I appreciate that more than I can express. The afternoon before she was to appear in Motions Court in Beaver County, the opposing party's counsel cancelled. Jill agreed to reschedule with the understanding that for the remainder of the week, she was in other counties, but would be available thereafter. Despite having this information, the opposing party's counsel rescheduled Motions Court that same week. Jill rearranged her schedule so that she was able to attend. I am certain that this was not an easy task, but, again, Jill did what needed to be done for my daughter's sake. She was able to convince the judge to allow only half of the time that was being requested, as the amount of time being requested was unrealistic and significantly above the status quo. She advocated for my daughter's well-being, and the judge agreed to order the opposing party to comply with my daughter's pediatrician's recommendations. Only the counsel attend a conciliation in Beaver County. Ours is coming up soon. This is an extremely difficult thing for a parent to do, as much will be determined during that time, and someone who does not know your child personally will be advocating for them. I feel confident that Jill is superior in her reasoning and persuasion skills and will present our case thoroughly at the upcoming proceeding. Working with Jill's office has taken much of the strain out of a nightmarish time in my life. It gives me peace knowing that Jill has all of our bases covered. In a time when most people rarely care about others or take their job seriously, it is refreshing to see that your personnel do just that, and this is why I am writing this review today. Many, many thanks!

I just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job yesterday! Thank you for taking the time to explain to me that the interim hearing was really just for the judge to determine a solution in the mean time. I'm SO happy that I get to keep custody! I also loved how you handled the other side's fa...lse accusations professionally and directly. I'm amazed at how low my ex has gone and how much he's lied. Oh, well. Thanks again! You Rock!
