Excellent Attorney

Attorney McAdory came highly recommended from a mutual friend. I had a what I thought to be fairly simple family law matter. Turned out that my custody and child support matter was not as simple. However, she was straightforward in detailing what steps needed to happen in order for me to be successfu...l in my case against my ex. I also appreciated that she worked with me in regards to my growing legal bill. I really appreciated that she continued to update me, even when she was on vacation! You don't find too many attorneys who are willing to take time away from their vacation to speak to a client. But she did. I would hire again for any legal matters! She made me feel important as a client.

Worst decision we could have made

We hired Janine Mckinnon on february 15th and fired her friday march 21st. Our current amount billed for services is $2,437 She was hired to file an emergency custody hearing and support modification due to child abandonment. Ahe origianlly stated it would not take more than $1050 to have the heari...ng within the next week. When no date was ever set we asked for updates and reasons for the delay. Ahe charged over $500 just to attempt tocontact the courts clerk to get a date set. The date is now set for april 1st and ahe now wants double the payment to take us in front of a judge. When told how inefective her service was she removed her self but from the case but not before calling the defendants lawyer so he could change his defence so we would have to hire another attorney. Do not hire the attorney. She is just another part of the problem in the system of protecting a child.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
