Onyema A. Farrey

Attorney Farrey is truly one of a kind. I was first drawn to her because of how personable and real she is. She did not try to sell me and was very honest about the strengths and weaknesses of my case. During our first meeting she came up with a strategy for my case that made me feel very confident i...n her. In the end, I won my case and I know that if I didn’t have Attorney Farrey the outcome would have been different. I am truly grateful for her.

When I found myself being served with fraudulent papers relating to a Contempt Action and a Change of Primary Physical Custody, I immediately started my search for representation. I called countless lawyers, partook in endless intake consultations, and even answered several questionnaires. However, f...rom the first time I spoke with AC at the law firm, I knew Anene Farrey & Associates was the firm for me. He reassured me that their firm was more than equipped to be able to handle my case. He let me know that Attorney Farrey was known for her thorough approach in handling cases and she came with the needed fire to win. From what I saw throughout my case and especially during my trial she lived up to her reputation. She kept precise notes and each time we spoke she remembered specific details (this is even with the court dates being pushed back repeatedly and the case spanning over two years). Attorney Farrey meticulously held on to even the smallest nuisances of my case. From the very beginning Attorney Farrey made it clear that we would win this case. That was a promise she kept. This victory came although we were up against the biased court appointed Guardian ad Litem, the Forensic Evaluator that did not properly evaluate anything, opposing counsel with their made-up stories, and even opposing witnesses throwing every lie they had. Attorney Farrey defied the odds and was victorious. Regardless of what the opposing side came up with Attorney Farrey maneuvered through it all expertly. She possessed the grace and a determination that ensured the best outcome for my daughter. She had a fire and a tenacious attitude that commanded the court room. From her rapid and well thought out line of questioning, to her ability to listen and ensure that the truth was truly revealed to the court, it was a job well done to say the very least. I appreciate all that she did more than I could ever express. I would give the highest recommendation of Attorney Farrey to anyone in the unfortunate situation of fighting for the best for their child.

I write this review with the heaviest of hearts. The child custody, legitimation and paternity battles are HARD! Anene Farrey made this battle even harder. I was constantly sending messages through the portal as directed requesting updates and advise. It took her WEEKS to respond. There was always an... excuse as to why a telephone call couldn’t be scheduled. Why hire a lawyer that you can never reach even when you’re paying them OVER $500 per hour? She was my first choice because her husband sold me a dream. He said, “She’s a shark, she’ll fight HARD for you, the opponents fear her, she is a high profile “celebrity” attorney.” My co-worker and I both hired her and had the same experience. Her receptionist is pleasant but the paralegals Tiffany and Brittany are as slow as Mrs. Farrey. I’m not certain that there really are any “Associates” as they never had any involvement in either of our cases. My outcome was that I lost primary custody of my boys. My ex husband was abusive to both my boys and I but his counsel painted a heavenly picture that we poorly defended against. Most documents were filed at the last minute and inquiries were ignored up until days before each of the multiple hearings. I’m currently working with another attorney to appeal and he agrees that this was “bare minimum” work at “high profile” rates. **Most of these 5 star reviews are friends of Mrs. Farrey and fictitious profiles. Losing your children AND shelling out $30,000 to someone who did the bare minimum is heartbreaking. BEWARE.
