Julie is terrific!

I appreciate Julie's candor and legal advice. She is professional, confident and understanding. Julie made a difficult situation easy to manage. Lawyers can be intimidating but Julie really makes you feel comfortable.

Hire Julie

I have worked with Ms. Schlax on numerous cases as co-counsel. She is professional and respectful to her colleagues and clients and practices with integrity. She is an efficient, responsible, zealous advocate and one that I would retain if I was ever in need.

Got charges dropped

My son was wrongfully charged with discharging a firearm. He was a college freshman and was accused of shooting from a car. Mrs. Schlax was the only one who listened and eventually succeeded in getting the charges dropped. She has been a blessing to our family.

Hire her!

Mrs. Schlax did an outstanding job with my case. She was very professional, honest, and made me feel like a person, not just a client.
