Mrs. Anne Pennington

I was very pleased with the consultation I had with Ms. Joanna Foard on Friday, June 5. She was very caring, kind, courteous and helpful in listening to me and providing information that I could use to help my family member.

Just flat out thankful

Joanna is truly a professional in every sense of the word. She was cordial from our first meeting and really wanted to hear what I had to say and how to come to resolution. We went through numerous phone calls and emails where she always kept me informed of the situation and what the possible outco...mes could be. This was my first experience hiring an attorney and I'm glad I was led to her. She never spoke ill of the other party and always tried to be optimistic, knowing I was hurting inside. I was really impressed with how quickly she turned around documents. I always felt my case was her priority and I never heard about how slammed she was or that she couldn't get to me. She always tried to inform me and never make decisions for me. I was in a dark place emotionally and she was the one person I could call and get advice on what I should do. She always said she was in favor of reconciliation of both parties. By the end of the legal process, I found myself being a better communicator with my spouse and we are trying to work things out. Her main goal never changed: ensure that I established paternity for my two children.

The BEST family attorney

Joanna was introduced to me by another attorney I use for work. During our consultation, my husband and I immediately felt comfortable speaking with her. She truly seemed to care and was extremely knowledgeable about our concerns. She worked endlessly to get in touch with my daughter's biological ...father's attorney to get him to sign over his parental rights and settlement to child support arrears. Before we knew it, we were in front of the judge for one of the best days of my life....adoption day! My husband is now legally the father of my daughter and couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Joanna and her paralegal Stephanie with their persistence and thoughtfulness made this so easy! They didn't make us feel like a "client" they made us feel like "family." I highly recommend Joanna for any legal help you need in the family law division.

A great experience!

I reached out to Joanna during a tough time in my life. I was seeking an attorney to help me file for divorce. From day 1, Joanna made me comfortable and let me know she would fight for my best interest. That is exactly what she did. With her help I was able to get my divorce wrapped up efficiently w...ithout ever needing to go to court. Any time I had questions or concerns Joanna would always provide any clarifications that were needed. She turned what would have been a stressful situation into seamless experience and really worked to keep my costs low. I would definitely refer her to anyone needing an attorney.
