This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Disappointed

I hired Janet for my divorce. Her fee kept going up and finally cost 3 times the original quote. On the day of legal settlement she and spouses attorney spring on me that half of my retirement would go to my spouse. There was no discussion about this prior to the court day. I was mentally and ...physically abused and unfortunately could not find it the courage to say no, stop. So I’ll never be able to retire. Be careful if you use this attorney.

Very Knowledgeable Lawyer

When I was looking for an attorney to handle my separation, I interviewed several. I chose Ms. Bezler because she had the best knowledge of the law and knew both what to avoid and how to get me what I wanted. In working with her, I have been impressed with her professionalism.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
