Jamie Allison Black

I have recommended Jamie to many friends as a friend did for me. Jamie was their for my daughter and I through a very difficult custody case, during this case I was lied about and slandered she helped me to stay calm through it all, and we won, my daughter is still with me, safe and sound, her father... now has no rights to control her life or mine. She possibly saved us, and I will forever and always be thankful to her for what she has done. Even years later she remembers who we are and certain things about my daughter that most would forget. I have called her even after our case was over, and she has always returned my calls and given me advice. I will continue to use Jamie for any future needs, and if I need any other law advice I will have her refer me to someone. She never over charged and she was able to get my ex-husband to pay most of her fees. This is who you want, and you better get her before the other party finds out about her.

After separating from my husband, I thought we would be the couple that would work everything out... I hired an attorney who gave me "lax" advice and I trusted my ex. Well, a few months later, I found myself in the middle of potentially losing custody of our 2 year old daughter. A friend recommen...ded Jamie and I called her while I was deep on the losing end of my divorce and custody battle. She literally saved me. She dug me out of a hole so deep, I never thought I would see the light of day again!! She and John were always there when I needed someone - even to just listen to me cry. She only allows herself a certain number of divorce clients at a time and I quickly found out it is for her to be able to devote the time each case needs. I will be forever thankful for Jamie and John...at the end of my 3+ year battle, we consider them part of our family. The atmosphere of her office is quaint and welcoming... there are no high end furniture pieces, ritzy paintings, and stuffy receptionists... it's simply a woman who is passionate about her career and the people she helps. She will always have time for you, and she will put her absolute best into your case. I hope I never need her again, but if I do, I'm glad she is on my side and not the other side!!!

Today world is hectic and extremely busy. I was experiencing the loss of a parent and a son at the same time. Black's law office worked so hard to bring me peace and understanding of a difficult custody case. I was treated with hands on advice knowing exactly what going to happen in each step. I have... total confidence in Jaime Black being highly intelligent and professional in her knowledge as a lawyer. I recommend her because she goes above and beyond in her work and personal approach. Attention to detail and keeping you informed she handles it . Rest assured your hiring one of the best lawyers with extreme integrity. !

I called Jamie Black over the phone about my recent and very emotionally stressing divorce. The phone was answered by John, her husband who's personality immediately made me feel comfortable. He connected me through to Jamie and even though her schedule was completely full for the next week, she un...derstood the urgency of my situation and somehow fit me in the same day! Upon arriving, I was put at ease and treated like a real person, an equal. Not one of those offices where you get the whole "you're privileged to even be here" vibes. Not at all. It's very family oriented. I was even offered water and coffee, apparently this office runs on coffee! :D My Initial consult was very fairly priced, and I wasn't even charged extra despite the fact that I went over the usual time limit. Jamie is someone who really cares and it shows. Enough that she's willing to forego fee's for the benefit and wellbeing of a client. At the end of the consult I was just thinking to myself, I really hope she can take me on as a client with her schedule. Turns out she was able to. Throughout the process of what was a messy and emotional time in my life, it was reassuring to know Jamie was working hard for me. Her retainer was fair and competitive, especially considering her reputation and that several offices I had called before had recommended her. I found it odd that competition would do this but some lawyers really do have integrity, although in the minority, and they had lost cases to her and seen her performance in court for the past 10+ years. Jamie was able to save me alot of money through her expertise of family law in Indiana. She was able to talk the other side into settling out of court, I got the shared custody of my children that I had wanted and all with minimal emotional stress. I can't imagine how she pulled it off but I guess that's why lawyers aren't cheap. When I received my invoice explaining where my money went essentially I could tell she had spent more time than she was charging me for, and she never charges for a quick 5 minute phone call! There are few lawyers out there you can fully trust to have integrity and morals. Jamie is one of them. I would highly recommend her to anyone who want's what's just and fair. She goes the extra mile just to make sure you get what is just and fair.

I had an appointment at 11am on Monday, September 17th, 2012. Jamie had not written me down in her book for my appointment, she remembered talking to me and couldn't find my notes. She agreed to take my case however she needed $1200.00. I paid her $175.00 and explained to her I would have the balance... this week. I called Wednesday, spoke to her husband and told him I had the money. He said he would have Jamie call me. Thursday, I called and left a message on their answering machine. I called later, spoke to her husband and he was leaving however he assured me that Jamie would call me. Friday morning, I called and spoke to Jamie. She decided she couldn't take my case because she got 2 new cases and there were health issues. I have more health issues than she could ever think of and I feel she owes me a refund of $175.00 because she out right lied to me.
