Excellent Representation

My Advocate
Due to the duration and toxicity of the marriage I was in, my journey through my divorce was a difficult one that Justin handled with the utmost expertise and professionalism and care. I was also seamlessly cared for by the team at Pickard and Ross who are of the same high caliber and my sons and I n...

Sea of uncertainty...to calm waters
For me, divorce is the most unsettling time on my life. Justin handled my case with strength and grace at the same time. He provided a very defensive approach for my case to arrive at a settlement that was workable (for me and my ex), which is what I wanted. He was knowledgeable on all the issues ...

Justin Steele Ross a Competent Divorce Attorney.
I had an outstanding experience with Justin Ross for my divorce. I am a woman in my late 40's and I live in Summit County. He was able to help me handle this difficult time in my life. Justin caught every important detail that was legally appropriate. I am able to live comfortably with my two childr...
"I endorse this lawyer. I would highly recommend Justin in any area of the law, but especially in family, dependency and neglect, and criminal law. He is extremely knowledgeable and ethical, and works very hard for his clients. He is someone I look to when working in an unfamiliar area of the law, and he is always willing to give his time and expertise. You could not find a better lawyer than Justin."
"There is a good reason Justin has so many endorsements and positive reviews--Justin is a great lawyer. He represents his clients diligently, and sticks to his position when necessary. But, he also knows when to suggest that his clients compromise on a particular issue. In addition to his positive traits as a lawyer, Justin is professional and has a good sense of humor."
"Justin is one of the best problem solvers in the family law arena that I have come across. As a fellow colleague, I look up to Justin. He is level-headed, intelligent, and an overall pleasure to work with. Whether you need an attorney or a mediator, Justin would be a fantastic choice."
"Justin and I recently finished working together as opposing counsel on two cases. Justin is a skilled advocate for his clients and always maintains the utmost professionalism. I look forward to working with him again."
"Justin is not only an excellent attorney, but a profound human being. It is my pleasure to work with him."
"I recently had the privilege of working with Mr. Ross as opposing counsel in an extremely emotional and difficult family law matter. I was very impressed with his conscientiousness, creativity, and ability to serve as a true counselor of law. I hope to work with him again in the future."
"Attorney Ross is an excellent advocate for his client. He is professional, ethical, and I highly recommend him."
"Justin is a great attorney to work with. He is smart, practical, and really looks out for his client's best interests. His goal is to truly help his clients find a resolution that will work for them, not to run up his bill. He believes in solutions, not creating more problems, and that is one of the most important traits a family lawyer can have. If a case does need to go to hearing, he will thoroughly represent his client. He is just as good in a mediation room as in a court room. You would do well to have Justin as your attorney."
"Justin is a very capable attorney. I have been very impressed with his ability to present intelligent arguments for clients in tough situations."
"I endorse this lawyer. Justin is competent, thorough, and zealously represents his clients. I refer clients to Justin frequently because I trust him. And so should you."
"Justin gave a great presentation on a difficult topic this weekend at the state-wide Family Law Conference. He created an outline and spoke in a way that was easy to understand, gave great practical tips, was client-centered and extremly knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Justin and fully endorse him for his family law expertise and insight."
"I endorse this lawyer. Justin is an extremely competent and skilled lawyer. He is also one you can trust."
"Justin has a keen sense of how a case, with its unique set of facts, should be developed. Many attorneys neglect developing a strategy for each case-Justin does not. He also strives to find a solution to an issue at hand which will work to his client's favor without the opposing side feeling a "loss" - ie., he can "sell" his strategy for resolution. He is amiable and professional to other attorneys and to his clients. I enjoyed working with him very much."
"Justin is capable beyond his years. Justin has litigated criminal felony cases, juvenile matters, Dependency and Neglect matters, civil rights (including such in federal court), and personal injury matters. He is able to quickly and accurately assess the landscape in complex cases, and counsel the client accordingly. He has a great sense of fairness and justice, and works tirelessly to achieve these golas for the client. Justin is a great person, and a great lawyer."
"Justin was ready to litigate the day he stepped into our lawfirm and quite likely well before that. In litigation, he is fearless without being reckless, practical without being callous, and tactical while still maintaining his common sense. In more than one case, he has argued so reasonably to the court that the Judge gave relief more favorable to his client than either of them ever expected. He knows exactly which battles to fight and which to negotiate and is always prepared to do both!"
"I think the highest compliment I can give other attorneys is referring clients to them. The people I refer business to reflect on my reputation as an attorney in the community. If I send a potential client to someone I don't trust, I am not serving the client. Therefore, I am happy to say that I frequently refer clients to Justin Ross because of his solid reputation in the legal community."
