Sheila G. Passenant

I was in a pretty sticky situation with my children's other parent and Ms. Passenant and her firm were amazing the whole way through. Given the circumstances leading up to hiring them, we got the best outcome we could've hoped for and they set me up for amazing success with my children and my hopes f...or maintain custody. They also were great with communication and advising against listening to my own biases. I am eternally grateful, and indebted, to Ms. Passenant and her firm for all the long hours and hard work they did to help me find success in what felt like a hopeless situation.

Nope. Bait and switch. Not knowledgeable about the law or tax situations. Made offers to the other attorney that I had already explained were unacceptable. Made additions to the custody agreement re: therapy that were not in line with therapists recommendations. So, no therapy available for my child...ren.

You can't please everyone! I am very happy I disregard the reviews and consulted/hired Sheila Passenant. I was extremely pleased with how well she settled my difficult and challenging divorce. I found Sheila to be charming, very personable and always accessible. Of course, she is a busy attorney but... she always returned my emails and calls. Thank you for a job well done and for making me listen to your advice. I got more than I asked for....

I would highly recommend Sheila and Ali in Divorce and Custody suits. Both always had my best interest as the focus of the case and were most professional and ethical throughout the entire process. They were extremely organized and up to date on current laws and never once did I hesitate on their rec...ommendations for me and my children. Having Sheila and Ali representing me was the best decision I made during this difficult time in my life.

I engaged Ms Passenant for a divorce and child custody matter and had to change counsel approx. six (6) weeks later because she was woefully inadequate compared to opposing counsel. She encouraged, read practically forced, me to sign a Consent Order that was not in my interest. I know this because th...ree other highly respected attorneys have since reviewed Ms Passenant's work on my case and said as much. Nine (9) months later I am still living with the negative impact of Ms Passenant's extremely bad advice. As some others have also stated, at times Ms Passenant was very difficult to contact and failed to return phone calls or emails. Unless you are on very good terms with your ex and there are absolutely no issues under dispute, I would not recommend engaging Ms Passenant to represent you in a family law matter. In fact, given my experience, I cannot recommend the services of Ms Passenant at all. Full stop.
