Ms. Field is an amazing attorney. She takes the time to thoroughly learn your case and to her you become family. I could not have asked for a better attorney and would recommend her in a heartbeat. She is very knowledgeable and straightforward.
I hired Jeanna to represent me in a hostile divorce that was filed in 2020. She was recommended to me by another attorney who had a full caseload.
Jeanna is a very nice person, but perhaps a little lacking in assertiveness, and she had difficulty in getting my wife's attorneys to respond to her. I wanted to settle my divorce as quickly as possible as the marital estate was draining money at an alarming rate.
My divorce could easily have been settled quickly and for much less money in legal fees and mediation fees had the communications between the attorneys been better. Even when my wife's attorney had a stroke, withdrew from the case, and was replaced by another attorney, the same lack of communication problems continued. To what extent this was due to the intransigence of my wife's attorneys I do not know.
For example it was only at mediation--almost a year after the divorce petition was filed-- that my wife's attorney became aware that I was now retired (age 69) and only had social security income going forward. I am not a divorce attorney (obviously), but this seems like exactly the kind of issue that professsional-level attorneys would discuss at some point during several months of negotiations on behalf of their clients and not keep as a surprise for mediation.
Admittedly the COVID-19 epidemic was going on simultaneously with the divorce proceedings, and it seemed that the local courts system was in disarray, so that should be taken into account.
Jeanna is probably excellent at estate planning or for very straightforward divorces.
I have been obsessed with business for many years. My goal is to provide a one-stop shop for everyone including business owners who want to preserve as much of their family wealth as possible while going through legal issues. When a family issue strikes, whether birth, death, divorce or guardianships, the financial impact can be tremendous. I want to help you keep as much of your money as possible, while effectively handling the issue in a way that will benefit you. Often business and family issues overlap and impact each other. It is helpful to understand both.
As a prior high school math and business teacher, I like to try to make something complex into something that is more simple. The issues can often be clarified that way, and solving the problem much easier. I would like the opportunity to discuss any issues you may have.

Critical: Responsiveness
Basically forgot i and my child custody case existed. No refund, no emails back, no calls or texts back. Very disappointing and sad. Havnt got to see my son for 2 years now and i needed help. Unfortunately did not pick a very committed lawyer as i thought she was.

If i could give a negative number i would. Talks a good talk but when it comes down to filing anything she doesnt, if the other party lawyers up she retreats and wants you to do whatever they request, when you ask for her to file for court she down right ignores you. Also lies to the court when She withdraws told us it was for medical reasons then told the court because we wouldnt agree with her advice! Also freezes up if the judge ask her any questions like a deer in the headlights.
