Julianne Marie Markiewicz

My fiance' and I recently engaged Ms. Markiewicz to help prepare a prenup agreement and had an absolutely horrific experience. It appeared that Ms. Markiewicz approached our prenup as a hostile divorce (rather than a loving marriage) pitting my future bride and I against each other, employing emoti...onally charged adversarial negotiation tactics and dragging out an expensive lawyer intensive process to...literally...the day before our wedding. She dismissed the process I had proposed where my fiance' and I would work together (doing much of the work ourselves) to craft a fair and equitable agreement through an amicable collaborative process with guidance and feedback from our respective counsel. She also ignored my request to provide an overview of the process, key milestones and timeline that she would suggest as an alternative. Instead, she just moved forward in a manner that lead to a drawn out, time consuming, resource intensive (read "lots of billable hours") process that dramatically increased our legal fees; created intense stress, conflict and emotional trauma; and dragged the "negotiation" process out to...literally...the day before our wedding. And to top things off, she billed us double the hours that our other lawyer did...even though he crafted and authored the multiple drafts of the proposed prenup and the key legal documents. This nightmare of a process resulted in prenup that neither one of us felt good about, legal fees that were 3-4 times what we had expected, a prenup that got signed the AFTERNOON before our wedding and an excruciatingly stressful...downright traumatic...process that led to my fiance' and I "breaking up" twice in the two weeks prior to our wedding (including 4 days before). P.S. This review features no embellishment or exaggeration (and I have the email audit trail to back up every word). I had never met...or even heard of...Ms. Markiewicz prior to this prenup process, do not work in the legal profession nor have any other potential conflicts of interests. I invested the time to write this review solely in the interest of helping others avoid repeating what was one of the most traumatic professional experiences of my life. One that came very close to aborting my wedding and costing me the woman that I love, adore and cherish with all my heart.

It's imperative to find the best lawyer around. Well you found her. She helped me stand up and fight for what I deserved when I had nothing left in me to fight. She took all my worries away within the first 2 minutes of meeting her and helped me get custody and child support. When I felt defeated... she assured me consistently that I need not worry. She was overly professional and down to business...no jokes...no dinking around. Thanks Julianne.

Julianne helped me through a very challenging and emotional post divorce decree situation. She gave excellent counsel and guidance through every step. I was so thankful to have her on my "side" to support me. She is very knowledgeable about the law and explains things in a way I understood. 5 stars f...or sure!

I could not be happier with Julianne Markiewicz! She has handled my child custody case for several months and has done a stellar job. Julianne genuinely cares about her clients, she undoubtedly has my child's best interest in the forefront of her mind. The second I retained Julianne as my attorney..., she called me and guided me through the process; she let me know what her goals were, what she needed me to do and how to proceed. She responded to my calls promptly and was loaded with helpful information every time. Her billing is very descriptive, honest and fair. Julianne's experience shines in the courtroom, she's bright, she's action-packed, and she's well-prepared for curve balls. Julianne is a winner and I'm blessed to have her on my side.
