Pit bull

She is the absolute best and only attorney I would use. She knows the law like no one else. She uses her knowledge to win your case. While she may not return every phone call she will contact you if it's important to keep your cost low. In the courtroom she is a pit bull and knows how to read the roo...m.

FOREVER GRATEFUL!

I am writing this recommendation with the most Admiration and respect to a very well deserving Attorney Julie ketterman. Ms. Ketterman was the Best choice Our family made in our success to secure my Niece’s safe return back home. Ms. Ketterman knowledge of the Law in our custody case was Extr...aordinary in court. She will fight tooth and nail in what is right. Ms. Ketterman and her office staff were professional and compassionate during our two year journey toward the day when my niece was returned to my sister’s loving arms. If you need an intelligent, knowledgeable, educated, skilled, proficient, strong attorney that will be understanding to your matter Please do yourself a favor and get in contact with Ms. Ketterman

Unorganized and lies to your face

Hired this excuse for a lawyer and on our first court date didn't even show up. Luckily, my wife's lawyer covered me free of charge to avoid embarrassment on my end. Hired her in December and didn't even meet her until 2nd court date in February, where she was late and unorganized and unaware of what... was going on. At that court date she talked big and held her hand open for more money. 3rd court date she didn't even show up and sent some lawyer from a different firm that wouldn't even talk to me. No show at mediation until I got a call 30 minutes after so her receptionist could listen in and "take notes". This lawyer preys on your weak state and takes advantage of you. Try calling her at anytime and she will be "On a flight". Still got a bill for 7500 dollars for one court appearance. Was told she filed all this stuff in my name, never got a record or proof of it. BEWARE OF THIS LAZY ATTORNEY!

Freaking BEST LAWYER EVER

Best lawyer ever! You do get what you pay for! That being said we had a baby lawyer spent 2500 dollars on him for him to sit in a Cps meeting to tell us to do what they said, EVERYTHING they said. We got Rid of him and got Julie, best money ever spent. For people who give her bad reviews it's usually... because they don't feel it's worth spending all this money for your kids back from Cps, and that's usually where I sit back and laugh at the fact that your even trying to fight for your kids back, i would have spent a million dollars for my step kids! She does her job and she does it well. She's only missed one court date for a emergency but sent Scott who was an amazing lawyer that still got us everything we wanted. You also have to remember some people who hire her actually did things the best lawyer in the country can't get them out of but Julie goes for the best outcome, if you do what is told!. She knows the law and knows it well. If you wanna actually listen, pay for a great lawyer and get the best outcome of the situation you need to hire Julie. If you don't wanna spend money on getting your kids back go to a baby lawyer. Pretty sure they will be glad to take a small amount of money to walk you thru to get you nothing. Hire Julie if you want the best outcome! By the way; our kids are home with us and will continue to stay thanks to Julie! :)
