This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Do not recommend

Triangle Smart Divorce is AWFUL! I had been working with them since January until a week ago. They didn’t do anything but take my money and create a whole mess and debacle. I am utterly disappointed and disgusted in the representation I received, and how I was treated whilst working with them. The co...mmunication I got from them was the absolute bare minimum, and insufficient. Everything with Julianne started off great, but once my ex finally retained counsel, she changed her tune. I lost trust and confidence in her after she would go days without answering my emails— and when she did, it would only be a 1 sentence reply until I also changed my tune with her. Julianne was always speaking her personal opinions about me, and my situation, which I do not appreciate at all. She became very opinionated and biased after there was opposing counsel. I paid thousands of dollars, only to have her betray me and not communicate with me. I wish I could get my money back. After retaining new counsel, things are already moving in a different direction. I can already see major differences after just a week or so of working with my new attorney. I would never recommend this firm to anyone unless you just have money to waste and do not value communication. I wish I could give them a negative amount of stars.

While Bar Rules prohibit us from discussing anything with specificity regarding your case, we do appreciate you sharing your concerns with the CEO of our business (Mitzi Gardner). As she expressed in that call, we are truly sorry to hear about your experience and take your feedback very seriously. Our primary goal is to provide the highest level of service and support to our clients during what we understand can be an incredibly challenging time. We regret that you feel we fell short of your expectations. Client communication and satisfaction are of utmost importance to us, and we apologize if you felt these aspects were lacking. When we have updates to provide, we strive to share those promptly. We are not clear on what upset you by Julianne sharing her personal opinions with you about you and your situation, as straight-forward, transparent, and experience-based personalized opinions and advice are what we provide to clients. Many a law firm can promise you the moon and stars and set unrealistic expectations for you with regard to possible settlement options or court outcomes. We aren't one of those firms, and we will share our personal opinions with clients to help them decide on the next steps to take on the sometimes rough and bumpy road presented to them. We understand this advice isn't always well-received. We'd rather have our clients know the risks and exposure they face than be surprised or devastated by their results in Court. We wish you all the best moving forward. Please do reach out if we can assist in your transition to new counsel.

Talent and Integrity

Julianne guided me through every step of the way in what turned out to be an extremely nasty divorce. She is very direct and likes to get cases resolved. I am not sure that I could have kept my sanity without her help. Thanks Julianne!

Swift, Fair and Excellent!

As the product of a blended family I have witnessed my own experience and the experience of my wife with her present attorney with a different firm. I can say without hesitation that Julianne was knowledgeable, professional and responsive to my situation. Dealing with ex's is quite emotional and J...ulianne made a difficult situation quite bearable and fair in the end. Her counsel was spot on. Now if I can only get my current wife to drop her current attorney (friend) and hire Julianne to do her work and let us get on with our lives.

Best Lawyer I've Ever Worked With

Julianne Booth Rothert is truly one of the best lawyers I have ever worked with. She came highly recommended from an acquaintenance and I could not be more pleased with her services. She helped me through a very difficult divorce and financial settlement. She is extremely responsive and always has... her clients best interests at heart. It was worth every dime I've spent for the legal advice and the moral support. She's a wife and mother so she can relate to the challenges you face. She understands human beings and the law -- a great combination. Compassion and legal expertise. I recommend her to every person that I met who stated they need a lawyer. The last individual I recommended her to actually receivied a recommendation for Julianne from 2 other individuals as well. This is definitely money well spent -- I urge you to invest in a partnership with Julianne!

Thank you Julianne

Julianne was recommended to me by a colleague and friend and I could not have asked for anyone better. Going through a separation is difficult enough especially when you have personal deadlines to meet. Her professionalism, expertise and willingness to quickly respond to my questions was incredible. ...Within the first five minutes of meeting her she had put me at ease and earned my trust. She always had my best interests in mind and made sure I fully understood the ramifications of my decisions as we worked through the process. Julianne, I thank you. I would not be where I am today without you.
