Joanne Sue Beasy

Joanne was a great advocate during my divorce. She would listen to my concerns and come up with a plan to articulate my wants and needs throughout the divorce. Joanne was thorough in her communication and follow up. I am confident that she was the best attorney I could have had during this difficult ...situation. I am truly blessed to have her support and assistance.

Joanne, Kellie and her team were absolutely phenomenal. Joanne is honest, hardworking and all around just a really wonderful person. She went above and beyond what was required as an attorney and did what she could to advocate for a better life for my kids and myself. She always made herself availabl...e and was there to answer my questions no matter how big or small. Although I never wanted to have to go through a journey like this, I am so thankful I had her by my side through this difficult time in my life and could not recommend her more!

I started my divorce with a different attorney who didn't really listen to my concerns and made me feel unreasonable for wanting my child to be safe. I switched to Joanne after a recommendation from a friend. My ex had lied at the start of my case and made it sound like he did not have a substance ...abuse issue and that I was withholding our child out of spite. Joanne was able to work with our guardian ad liteum to get substance abuse monitoring in place and tie it to the temporary order. Which was modified when he failed his testing. She did this so quickly after I switched to her, she really was on point from the start. She was then able to ensure that we had safe guards in place for long term protection of my child in the final orders. I walked out of my divorce with exactly what I asked for. Joanne listened to my concerns and made them the forefront of all negotiations and the finalized agreement. She advised me on other areas as well and made sure I had thought everything through even on matters that were not my main concern. I appreciated her ability to not only understand and focus on what I was most concerned about but to also focus on making sure every area was taken care of and all matters thought through. I think the most important part of my experience with her is she actually listened. She didnt question my side of the story or act like I was unreasonable. She listened and because she understood my concerns she was able to get the best solution for me. She wasn't scared of the solution being harder to obtain. She wasn't looking for an easy payday. She cared and knew exactly what steps we could take and when. She was also very interesting to talk to when we were waiting at court and helped my nerves when we were in the court room.

Hiring Joanne was the best decision I have ever made as it resulted in my ability to maintain a day to day relationship with my children. She successfully filed to dismiss an Ohio divorce case and ex-parte order that gave my soon to be ex-wife primary custody of our children and sought to keep them i...n Ohio. She knew the law (Ohio's UCCJEA and local procedural laws) backwards and forwards and worked with me patiently to achieve desired outcome. She was always accessible and willing to answer any and all questions I had. An very detailed oriented advocate, her motion was extremely well written and thoroughly researched, and compelling. End result was reestablishment of home-state jurisdiction and order from home-state judge to return children within week. Joanne was extremely fair - all client charges well documented and justified. Her assistant Kelly was also very responsive and helpful. I strongly recommend Joanne without hesitation to anyone in need of legal services commensurate with her areas of expertise and skillsets.

This was a difficult divorce and I went into it with illusions that being honest and doing the right thing is the way to go. Joanne encouraged me to stay on this path however, the other party was not so honest and trustworthy - nor was his attorney. In the end I got exactly what I asked for when I ...went in to Joanne - for my daughter to stop crying when she went to daddys, for him to be a better daddy and for me to get residential school parent. Joanne dealt with my faltering self confidence and kept me focused on what was REALLY important and that was my daughter. No matter what obstacles the other attorney and my ex would through into the mix - Joanne kept me calm. However, the depositions happened to be the spot that I was in awe of her. She kept on task and asked the questions and without ever raising her voice or changing her tone she was able to get him to be completely flustered. He answered questions and it was a true test of who he really is. His attorney was laughing and making jokes and relaxed and in my opinion very unprofessional - however, Joanne was the perfect professional attorney being cordial but vicious all while smiling. I am sure that many attorneys could have done what Joanne did for me - but the fact that she truly cared about what happened made the experience a tolerable one. I highly recommend her for any court hearing that you may need to attend. Wait til she get's to cross examine the other party - that is when her true colors shine!
