Residential parent victory

April worked on my residential parenting case that resulted in a victory for my son and me. I live in Columbus and my case was in Clinton County, where my ex-wife lives. The odds were certainly not in our favor, to say the least. A father trying to gain residential parent status 1.5hrs away from t...he mother.... The first visit I had with April I asked if my case was worth taking, she said yes. I then asked if she would take the case even if she knew that the outcome would be a loss, she said absolutely not and to get a second opinion if I wanted. Needless to say that I did not get a second opinion and decided that April was the right attorney for me. Over the next year or so she checked in once a month or so to make sure I didn’t have any questions or if anything new pertaining to the case came up. Anytime I had a question or needed to consult I could call or email and knew that I would get a response typically the same day, if not the next day. Long story short April was great to work with and she got the job done! Fingers crossed I never have to use her again but if that changes, without hesitation April will be the one I call.

Dissolution

April does an amazing job! She is very detailed and thorough. She handled a dissolution for me and it went very smooth. She is very professional and has a great personality. I think she is very easy to talk too. I would highly recommend her! There were a few things I needed to wrap up after my dissol...ution was final (refinancing a mortage etc.) and I needed some additional paperwork . I called her with what I needed and she had it back to within hours.

the impossible

April represented me in a child custody case. I had made some terrible choices in my life which resulted in me having supervised visitation with my children. Within a few weeks of my retaining April, the supervised visits were dropped from the order since I am doing well and have turned my life aro...und. I thought it was nearly impossible to even consider having custody of my children, but April had faith in me that I wanted to do what’s right for the children and myself. April advised me what it would take for custody to happen and 6 months later I have shared custody! Over the past 6 months, April has kept in CONSTANT contact to make sure I am still headed in the right direction and to let me know exactly what was going on with the legal issues of my case. I have NEVER heard of a attorney replying to an email with questions I had within minutes. The longest wait was 24 hours – after she had her baby! April puts her heart and soul into her work and it shows!! I will never be able to truly repay April for her relentless effort she has made in putting the last pieces of my puzzle together. Thank you just isn't enough but I do not have the right words. I can truly recommend April ___ for her listening to each aspect of my case, advising me – whether I wanted to hear what she had to say or not – and doing what she does best, keeping the outcome of my case in the forefront. April works extremely hard to keep her client well informed of where their case stands. I would certainly employ her again in the future if the need arises. April strives to keep the financial costs down as much as possible. I cannot say enough positive things about April ___; she is a professional in every way!!!

Phenomenal Attorney!!

Ambitious, compassionate, reliable, attentive, optimistic, outgoing, proficient – these are just a few words that come to mind when we think of our attorney, April Marlett. If you are looking for an attorney that will walk beside you step-by-step & provide reassuring guidance, look no further, April ...is the one. She will go above & beyond your expectations. April was there for us every step of the way exceeding our expectations. One main thing that impressed us about April is, she ALWAYS told us what we NEEDED to hear not what we WANTED to hear. Never once did we have false hope, she explained everything thoroughly with honesty & never let us down. We were able to accomplish EVERYTHING we hoped for with total uncooperative resistance from the opposing counsel. She is a phenomenal attorney to say the least!!

We will ALWAYS return...

We are "lifers" and have returned to April MANY times to resolve custody, child support and any other family court issues we have. We wouldn't go any place else! She never steers us wrong and is always there looking out for our best interest as well as the kids. We recommend her all the time!
