Foreclosure

With my in-laws passing away within a month of each other, there was no way the family was going to save their house. Michelle stepped in and helped us through a strained foreclosure process (Covid-19 for two years, squatters, etc.). She did a terrific job not only helping us but keeping us informed.... It was a real pleasure working with her. I would highly recommend her.

Michelle and her team were extremely compassionate, knowledgeable and professional during what was a very difficult and emotional time for me. COVID made things even more challenging for all involved. Michelle and her staff managed to make our interactions as personal and convenient as possible give...n the circumstances. Michelle guided me with sound legal advice always looking out for my best interests. She always helped me look at the big picture. She counseled me on many issues I would have never even thought of. This enabled me to make the best choices for my future. She was never hesitant to jump in there and negotiate if that what was best for me. My case was resolved thoroughly and quickly and I have Michelle to thank for that.

Best attorney to have on your side

Michelle helped me during a scary time in my life for domestic abuse. Her views , caring and knowledge helped me through an order of protection and continued through the divorce. She was always available and returned calls promply. Answered all concerned questions for me and helped me through the pro...cess of selling our home, splitting assets and being with me, on my side, through mediation and court proceedings. Extremely knowledgeable with family law issues and was able to get me a great outcome with my dissolution of marriage. I would definitely use Michelle and her team for legal issues. Thank you for all your help.

Michelle Napier

I found Ms. Napier to be most helpful with the legal issues I had. I especially appreciated that she was very ethical in her approach to all my issues, and also did not run up her bill excessively for services rendered. I found her to be down to earth, very personable. Both she and her assistant ...kept me very well informed. She is very organized and there was nothing that "fell thru the loops". I have already referred one person to Ms. Napier, and would do so again.

Disappointed for money spent

I hired Attorney Napier for a parenting plan and child support to be established. Michelle was very quick to respond to my emails and calls and she seemed like she cared. She gave me a military discount which was very nice. However, my case still cost around $50,000 for me to end up more screwed than... when I started. I am very disappointed in the outcome. An agreement was reached between me and the Childs mother but Michelle refused to file it. She insisted we go to trial. So we did. The Judge messed up her math on child support so we had to have a rehearing. That cost $10,000 more. When I asked Michelle after the re hearing why she did not file for me not to pay the other persons attorney fees (like I asked) because I could not afford it I was shrugged off and told she was withdrawing from the case because I had no more money to give her. She did not give me an answer to that important question. So as long as you have the money to keep pouring into your case she will be attentive. I do not recommend Michelle.
