Hired, Attorney never done anything on my case in other a year

I started an appeal with Attorney Jurney for custody. She didn't do anything on my case for over a year. Afterward, I decided to drop the appeal since the other party filed a motion and moved my case to another county, which was approved by the judge. Attorney Alicia has promised a refund, and almost... 2 years later, nothing. They do not answer their calls or return emails when supposed to. I have had mercy and have waited months before writing this review, in fact I wrote a review about 4 months ago, and they reached out to me and told me they were going to get my refund just so I can take the review down, but never heard anything back after multiple emails.

Exceptional, compassionate, calm. Only wish I found her sooner!

Ms. Jurney is representing me in a child custody and support case. Throughout the prep work to the temporary hearing, I was thoroughly impressed by the amount of information we were able to exchange at each meeting, how quickly Ms. Jurney comprehended complicated expenses and child support calculatio...ns, and how well Ms. Jurney prepared herself was for the hearing. Going into the hearing, I already knew that not only was Ms. Jurney a highly effective lawyer, she had also well familiarized herself with the details of my situation and the disturbed mental state of the defendant to be able to handle the examinations well. For me, facing the defendant who abused me for over 10 years was terrifying. Ms. Jurney's calm, confidence, compassion and faith in me was the key that helped me remain calm and focused. From my observation that day and my past experience at other (50B) hearings, her professionalism and competency clearly stood out in the courtroom. I feel very fortunate to have Ms. Jurney representing me.

Exceptional Family Law Attourney

Alicia is a highly skilled, competent and knowledgeable attorney. She helped me tremendously to stay calm during mediation and solved all the problems with professional skill, digging at the opposing party for the needed info. I already recommended Alicia to my friends and will keep doing so. I would... hire her in a heartbeat again if ever needed. Alicia is extremely effective. I am forever grateful for finding her.

Highly recommend Alicia

Alicia represented my wife and me in a messy custody issue involving our grandson. Not only is she a knowledgeable attorney but also a caring individual. I never felt rushed when talking with Alicia. She also helped us to prevail with a judgment that forced our grandson's father to repay us for his s...on's medical expenses (with interest). I can strongly recommend Alicia as a family attorney and would not hesitate using her again if the need arose.
