Highly recommended, honest attorney with integrity

Ms. Coleman handled my divorce for me. I was impressed with her knowledge, experience and speed with which she handled my case. If you looking for an attorney that is upfront, honest, trustworthy, great communicator, aggressive (if needed) and will not overcharge you, I highly recommend Jeanne Colem...an.

Top Notch Guidance on Family Law

The Law Office of Jeanne L Coleman is professional, knowledgeable and caring. They ask the right questions to draw out the facts and have the know-how to advise a situation for the best outcome. I consulted with Jeanne on a family matter and left feeling more confident in next steps and expectations.... I would recommend Jeanne Coleman Law to anyone with divorce/family law/social security disability questions.

Wonderful divorce attorney

Jeanne represented me in a very difficult divorce from my lawyer spouse. She was fearless, always thoroughly prepared, and always had the right legal advice for me when I felt like I was losing my mind. Her many years of experience and her love of trial work make Jeanne a natural winner in the co...urtroom. She's also an excellent negotiator who will try to keep you out of court. But In my case, my soon to be ex wanted to be in court so I really got a front row seat to watch Jeanne shine in hearings. I highly recommend Jeanne to anyone who wants to settle their case peacefully or who, like me, has to go through a lot of court hearings to get divorced. If I marry again, I will definitely ask her help on a pre-marital agreement so I never have to be in divorce court again. And considering how long my divorce took, how manipulative my lawyer ex-spouse was, and how much we were in court, I thought her fees were very reasonable.

Knowledgeable, aggressive and very realistic

I was referred to Jeanne by my previous attorney, who had to have surgery three weeks before going into court. I was devastated at the thought of a new attorney taking my case so close to my court date. My divorce was a 3 year process with my ex-husband taking me back for full custody of the kids. I ...met with Jeanne and she made me feel confidant that she could take my case. I was kept informed throughout the process. Jeanne always gave me options on how to handle the case, I was given the pros and cons of each option, allowing me to decide based off expense and time frame. My case was quickly resolved without court. This was leaps and bounds better than a prior firm that worked my case in the past.I was financially broke no thanks to the previous firm. Jeanne was fair in her pricing and I never felt that she was taking advantage of me or my wallet. I had a great experience with not only Jeanne but with Chris and Andrea who closely with me. Andrea was my angel and always made sure to help me. I felt like they all had my best interest. I not only got everything I wanted but was able to keep my kids 70 percent of the time, she had the child support adjusted to the guide lines. No body wins in a divorce but it should be fair to both parties and the children. Not an easily done task. I had attorneys who over charged and undelivered. During this difficult time the last thing you need is an attorney that just wants your money, by dragging things out. I have personally recommended Jeanne and her staff and will continue to use their services whenever the need arises. I am grateful for their professional and caring service.

Knowledgable, realistic and agressive

Gave me great advice, set realistic expectations and answered all of my questions. Divorce was difficult but we got though it. I don't understand previous review. Opposite of my experience. Maybe that was why they had 3-5 previous attorneys.
