Michelle Jeanette Askins

Michelle represented me in a very nasty custody case. At times, I was a mess and at the lowest spots in life. Michelle always knew exactly where I was emotionally and was so understanding. she was the only reason I was able to relax. I never doubted her advice and knew I was in the best of hands. She... was straight forward and explained the plan all the way through the case. I was blown away by her knowledge and toughness in the court room. She will not be bullied around and in my opinion, opposing counsel will not sneak anything by her. She was extremely observant and 10 steps ahead of opposing counsel. She’s among the most brilliant minds I’ve encountered in life. She protected my family in ways I couldn’t have expected. Michelle deserves much more than I paid. The work she did in my case was outstanding!

Michele was my attorney during a very heated custody battle. During our meetings when I would be emotional and nervous she was always extremely professional and knowledgeable about what could and could not happen, what I should expect in court, and what my realistic expectations should be throughout ...the process. She was personable and candid, and will be my first call if services are needed again in the future.

I used Michelle to help me with a shared parenting agreement. She was always prompt to answer my questions and return calls. She also got a fair shared parenting plan for me (my almost exact terms to be precise) ...which can be hard to for an unmarried father. What I liked most was the fact that she ...took time to hear my specific situation and didn't try to push a cookie cutter agreement on me. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Michelle when she was at Barr Jones & Associates, which later she switched to Petroff Law Offices . Since day one, she exceeded my expectations and was fully focused on my case. Over the course of a year and a half, she got to know my situation and strived to get me toward my goal i...n a custody battle. Hands down, Michelle is the attorney you want to handle your case as she develops an individual plan for each client, and gets it done!
