Effective!

Breanne Schadt was amazing. We got a consultation appointment quickly. She took immediate action that led to an expedient and beneficial resolution. Would definitely hire again.

Best of the Best

Very strategic, knows the law better than most, keeps expectations grounded, fights hard for her clients, impeccable ability to overcome the odds. Very mindful and considerate, and makes time to grasp your case history to ensure positive outcomes in Court. Breanne commands respect in the Court Room, ...and I cannot say enough good things about how she has represented me. I considered myself extremely fortunate to have an attorney of such extraordinary caliber. I highly recommend Breanne, no attorney in the Quad Cities that can match her expertise in Family Law,

Unprofessional demeanor/Poor Firm Practices

I had contacted the office for a consult with her. I had a quick overview with her and she asked for what information I had on case. I spent a considerable amount of time sending an email and attaching files to get her familiar with my case. She stated if sent soon enough she would contact same day b...ack or the next. Weeks later I sent a touch base email to make sure I didn’t get overlooked honestly. I stated I understand not every case is for every lawyer and an appropriate we are not interested would be appreciated if so. I never even got a follow up email. That is poor practice in a firm. I think that’s a great indication of how things would have gone if I had retained her.I provided the foundation for an honesty police and nothing. Chose wisely on someone who is true to their words.

She is the BEST

My husband and I went to Breanne to help us terminate the rights of my sons birth mother and my subsequent adoption of him. She was amazing, during the first consultation she sat us down and told us exactly what we would need to do and was always honest about possible outcomes (even if it may not be ...in our favor since the State of Iowa doesn't often terminate parent rights). She put in so much extra work for us, since the birth mother was moving from around a lot (from PA to GA) and it was often hard to track her down. She had to send multiple copies of the paper work to multiple places and always kept us in the loop and was always there to answer any random questions we would have. One of the best days of my life was when we finally we to court and the just granted us the termination and I was able to officially adopt my son and I can honestly say it would not have been possible without Breanne and all the work she put in with our case. I can not say enough how amazing and caring she was and continues to be with me and my family
