You want her in your corner !

Alicia knows the laws and how things work in MS. I liked that on the very rare times she wasn't sure about something she didn't give me some lame answer but said "Let me do some research and get back to you" She is honest and genuine . I never once thought she was not taking the big picture in...to account. I have a daughter and she always put her needs first which was the most important thing to me. Early on in the process it became clear Alicia is an excellent listener. It felt like she was wearing many hats including counselor ,lawyer and even friend. She was supportive but not to the point of not letting me know when I was out of line or over reacting to various provocations. In the end Alicia advised me not to go to trial. It was not fear of losing or fear of the unknown but because she felt it would almost guarantee we would never be able to rebuild any kind of relationship which would benefit our daughter . I took her advice and today I couldn't be happier with how things worked out. My child is well adjusted and doing well and my ex and I are even friends again. I also remember she asked me at least twice if there was any chance of reconciliation because if there was any it should be pursued seriously . I would recommend her whole heartedly .It is doubtful I will ever need her services again but if I did I would not hesitate.

Great Attorney- Great Results

Alicia represented me through two years of divorce and custody hearings. She was extremely helpful and attentive to me and my case and in the end I got the exact results and rulings that I sought. Family court is not easy, but if you have to go through it make sure you have an attorney who understand...s the issues and can make your case. Alicia did both, and both the divorce agreement and the custody issues were ruled in my favor.

Divorce and Custody Case

I would highly recommend Alicia Baladi, my divorce and child custody case was very complicated and she handled it with the upmost poise and professionalism. She was genuinely concerned for both me and my child throughout the process. At times my ex had three separate attorneys representing him, and i...t never phased her. She was very proactive and responsive with all communication. I even had to contact her on a holiday and she went above and beyond to assist me. I never felt like I was just "a case" during the entire time she was my attorney. She did a wonderful job representing me and still checks in on us to this day.

Like Family

Alicia helped me during my divorce and custody cases. She has been helping me with issues for 3 years now and she has helped me win what is fair and done such a wonderful job for me during each decision I made to move forward with. I would never want another lawyer to help with me or my children. I f...elt comfortable with her the first time I met with her. She helped give me strength during times I didn’t have much. She is wonderful in court. Well spoken, detailed and always fought hard for me. I owe so much to her I could never repay her for all she has done for me. We consider her part of our family. My parents love her just as much as I do. My children mean more to me than anything in the world, and she made me feel like we meant the same to her.

No Laws Against Hiring A Bad Attorney

Alicia recently represented me in a divorce and unfortunately did not do such a great job. She was very unresponsive as far as keeping me up to date with information when the trial was only days away. She did not actually fight for my rights and seemed to have folded under pressure when I needed he...r to be strong for me. I have had to hire another attorney to step in and questioned practically everything she did. I would not recommend her, especially if there are children involved.
