Joan M. Malbrough

She provided poor advice with regard to property settlement details. She advised it would be ok to agree to give my ex spouse half of my retirement because I could get an equal amount from his social security when I retired. This is NOT the case....I am unable to claim ANY of his social security be...nefits. This is causing significant financial hardship for me.

I filed for divorce on grounds of abuse. When I hired Joan, she advised me not to seek our local women's shelter, the Haven, for assistance and further stated I had better resources with current life coach and my children's counselor. She on multiple levels did not properly represent me and my chil...dren as her client and for an expensive amount @ $10,000. She has in result endangered myself and my children. As without the proper guidance from professionals in domestic violence she advised not to seek, I have been exposed to two more abusive relationships after my divorce, one with a current protective order. My children have been exposed to extreme child alienation from my ex spouse I highly do not recommend Joan as she clearly cannot be trusted to properly represent on her client's behalf.

Joan Malbrough was my attorney for my divorce and custody. I told her what I wanted and we discussed my options. When it went to court, she grilled my ex over his lies and lack of involvement in our child's life. I could not have asked for a better attorney and plan to hire her again when I take my e...x back to court!!!
