Camille Louise Baker

Divorce is extremely stressful. Caring and empathetic are not the usual words used to describe lawyers, but Camille is. Wonderful at strategy,Camille knows the law and what part of it to argue in court. She cuts to the heart of the matter and doesn't waste your time on unimportant issues just to drag... out your case. She is able to disseminate what part of your case is really an emotional issue and should not be argued in court.Unlike other lawyers,she is very available, does not take your case and disappear,nor will she hand you off to an underling.She will not promise you the world either, only what she honestly believes is feasible and just, and in the best interest of any children involved.Having acted as a law guardian herself,she is well aware of those parameters. Camille is well received and liked by all in the court system, even her adversaries.She accomplishes this by being articulate, unfailingly positive, compassionate and considerate to everyone involved. I highly recommend her!

My husband and I had been attempting to adopt a baby for several years. At the time I met Camille, we were about half way through the process of adopting a baby girl from China. During our conversation I mentioned this to her as just part of the conversation we were having. Amazingly, she remember...ed our talk and called me about 18 months later when she became aware of a birth mother who wanted to do a private adoption. We were no further along in our foreign adoption and were thrilled to have been given this opportunity. Camille represented us through the entire adoption and made it a wonderful experience. She arranged our tour at the hospital and a room to stay in after our son was born. She had worked frequently with the adoption assessor she chose for our home study which made the process even easier. We will be forever grateful to Camille for providing us with the greatest joy of our lives.

Our family can't thank Camille enough for all she has done for us over the years. We had successfully used her services on several matters and then one night my son was involved in an auto accident that involved a drunk driver. Knowing that Camille was a nurse, I called her from the Emergency Depar...tment at the hospital our son was taken to. She was familiar with the staff there and made a telephone call to insure that we received individualized treatment until our son was sent by Life Flight to a trauma center. She came to the trauma center several times to visit with us and then represented our son in his personal injury case against the driver. She obtained a settlement that was three times what anyone else told us we would get! Our son is fully recovered now and using a portion of his settlement to attend nursing school. I don't know of any other lawyer who can provide the service that Camille does.

I wasn't sure who to turn to recently when my ex attempted to terminate my parental rights after I was forced to move to California for my job. Being out of state and trying to find an attorney that I could trust back in Ohio was very difficult. I was referred to Camille by a friend of mine who rave...d about her. Camille was a Godsend! I showed up at her office the week before court with a heap of court documents that I couldn't make any sense of and in no time Camille and her staff made me feel as if they had been with my case all along. Camille didn't promise me the world nor did she sugarcoat the situation. She was honest and said we are facing a uphill battle due to my moving without notice to my ex. What she did promise me was that she would fight for my rights as a mother who dearly loves her children. She worked with me one on one to prepare my response to the court and when my court date came I walked out of court with all my visitation rights in tact and more! Facing the possibility of not being with my children was one of the darkest moments in my life and Camille and her staff were like a beacon of hope guiding me through a very confusing process. As a mother herself Camille knew how much my children meant to me and I will be forever grateful to her for all her help.

Long story short I had neglected to pay a speeding ticket and without my knowledge was driving around on a suspended license. So one day I get pulled over and the officer asked me whether or not I knew my license was suspended and of course I said no at which point I was ticketed not only for speedin...g but for driving under a suspended license! Not long before this a close friend of mine had faced a very similar situation and so I asked him if he would refer me to his lawyer and he gave me Ms. Baker's contact info. She got back with me right away and met with me to discuss the case and advised me on how we should proceed. I was facing the possible suspension of my license for a year or more which would have also cost me my job! On my court date when I arrived at the court house Ms. Baker was already there and told me she had already spoken to the prosecutor and explained my situation regarding my oversight in paying the original ticket and got the prosecutor to DROP the driving under a suspended license charge entirely and so all I had to pay was the two speeding tickets and court costs! I didn't even have to go in front of the judge, just pay my fines and i walked out with the entire mess behind me. I was facing the possibility of loosing my license, my job, and who knows what else had it not been for Ms. Baker. I can't thank her enough.
