Penny really cares for her clients!

I was in a nasty custody battle with my ex-wife this past summer. After speaking with Penny, I knew she was the attorney for me. She is very detailed oriented and professional at all times. When we met in person for the first time, she listened to my issues and advise me of all possible outcome of ...my case. Within the first day, she had paperwork filed with the local courts to have my kids return to my custody. Even after my ex-wife guarantee that she would return my kids at certain time, but she refuse when that day came. I immediately reached out to Penny who was on vacation, she was patient and as usual ready to come with solutions to returning my kids. She went to the court house twice to make sure I had a Pick-Up order which gave me legal authority to bring back my kids. In the end, I received full custody of my kids and a divorce in two months. In my final hearing, even the judge was impressed on how detail penny was in my case and thank her for a good job which is rear from a judge.

from the beginning consultation of divorced and timeshare I knew i found the right attorney would be a mistake not to hire her

I had consultation with her over the phone and instantly listens and showed the experience, passion to help clients reach their main goal with also helping people with alternative ways to start your case if not in a good place economically.I was served with divorce and timeshare request from and ab...sent parent, and was looking for an attorney that understood my side and what goals ultimately I want for the best outcome wish is to have my kids with me as they have been.but I could not afford at this time the retainer fee and she dint look at my case any difrent as many would. that showed me that is not all its about for her as others attorneys do.she work with me to at least start process and was verry impressed ,and happy to finally find an attorney that was so detailed and hard worker from the first meeting let me tell you,she really gave me confidence that with her as my attorney My kids best interest will be reached..She did all paperwork and told me how,where and when ..It's scary goin pro se, but that's my situation today and thanks to her my paperwork is in and in a such a detailed explanation of how to handle it.Thank Penny, for working with me on my financial situation and providing me an option to at least start. Its overwhelming having to do it alone and not the smartes when you have much to loose. I will recommend anyone on my situation that chose's to pro ce dont do it alone .hire her to help even if its to do some paper work hourly ,or let her help as she has for me. Will definitely have her defend me with confidence. SL

Knowledgeable, hardworking, and trustworthy Attorney

I went to Penny as a Father looking to gain my rights and not be taken advantage of by my ex-spouse. She completely took control of the entire divorce from start to finish. My divorce was even dragged out by the opposing side to the point where the judge wanted to know what was going on, and she rema...ined patient throughout the course of everything. She gives excellent advice, and is very hard-working. I remember getting a call from her the moment she got off vacation regarding one of my hearings, and even during after hours, due to working on my case. I couldn't have been more pleased with going to her. She's very fair all around, and wants to best for everyone! Save yourself the time of looking around and go to her. She will fight for you!

Do yourself a favor go elsewhere

I am well versed with attorneys, I have retained or been assigned over 7 lawyers for various legal matters. She made a horrible mistake, after I requested her as my attorney, she ask my ex-wife at her office if she wants to do mediation. In no uncertain terms did I ever mention this to her on our nu...merous phone calls. In fact in one of our phone calls, Penny asked me if I have ever done mediation, I told her yes. I had used Divorce Without War and it had cost me $1200( negotiations broke down) for one hour. That it was a waste. In all fairness Penny fields her own phone calls and has a lot on her plate. She probably doesn't remember who she talks to about what.

Replied last January 03, 2015

This person came to my office with his ex-Wife for a free initial consultation. When this person indicated, just minutes before our meeting, that his ex-Wife would be attending the consultation as well, I explained to him that his ex-Wife should not come to the initial consultation where he would be receiving legal advise on a case where she would be the opposing party. Thus, when he showed up with his ex-Wife, against my advice, and both of them walked back to my office to discuss the case, I explained the options of litigation vs. mediation. After hearing about both processes in length (including the pros and cons of both processes), he DECIDED that mediation was a better option for him. In fact, before he made this choice, he even asked me to leave the room while he discussed the option with his ex-Wife. The mediation, as public records would reveal, resulted in a settlement of the entire case, saving this person a lot of money, time, and stress. Prior to starting the mediation process, this person was well aware of the option to hire me as a lawyer instead and had plenty of opportunity to make this decision. HE OPTED FOR MEDIATION, NOT ME! I merely provided him with the ability to choose what method he wished to take for his case. Most clients appreciate being fully advised of their options. I ask that you review all my positive ratings below, which are a better representation of the quality of service I provide my clients. With regard to me answering my own phone, there is an office receptionist who answers the phones when I am in court. However, I prefer to answer my own phone when I am in the office. Further, I often provide my cellular phone number, which is what this person had, and of course, I answer my own cellular phone number. I take great exception to his libelous statement that I probably don't remember who I talk to and about what. Again I ask you review all the positive reviews below that show this to be a complete falsehood. I take great care of my clients and they get the personal attention they deserve. The one-on-one attention I provide my clients is appreciated by most.

Outstanding - Professional Attorney

I'm not one to post a review, but in this case I could not resist! Penny went above and beyond representing my Family Law issue. My past Divorce Attorney let issues between me and my (now ex) spouse go unresolved, causing me to have to spend a lot of $$$ JUST to move forward with the Divorce. Beca...use of this, I'm very hesitant in hiring a lawyer. When I first met Penny, she was very professional and straightforward - not trying to make promises that were unrealistic. In fact during Mediation, Penny went above and beyond to neutralize the situation and explained in a honest and fair way to both of us during Mediation. Every time I emailed or called, she responded in an expedient manner. In fact, I knew if she was in the office, she would answer my call herself - how convenient - no phone tag!!! She explained every step very clearly and when we asked for suggestions, she was quick to suggest something we both immediately agreed upon despite our past experiences!! We left the Mediation with an agreement we were both equally satisfied with and prevented a long dragged out mess!! A good lawyer is a rare find - I would definitely recommend Penny!!
