Jolein Harro

I was referred to Jolein Harro by a friend who had retained her to assist in changing a parenting plan (through a different attorney) and increasing child support. My friend had nothing but good things to say about she was treated, plus she had a great outcome in court. Jolein and her staff assisted... me with my complicated divorce, involving several pieces of real estate, a self-employed business, inherited money, assets from a previous marriage, and a difficult spouse with her attorney. Jolein has a talent for cutting through the complexities and explaining what needs to be done and how to get there. She even returned calls or emails on weekends and evenings! Jolein is a true professional and put me at ease through the whole process. Her experience in dealing with these matters helped keep the costs down, as she had seen it all before and didn't have to learn as she went along. Anyone going through a divorce or who needs help with custody issues should use Jolein!

I went in to see Jolein about modifying my parenting time to 50%. I was told how screwed I was getting, how much I was overpaying, how poor my sep agreement was for me. It was a 2 hour initial meeting and when I left I was thrilled. That was the last time I saw or talked to Jolein and in the end I wa...lked into court unrepresented because I was ordered to pay my ex's legal fees and couldn't afford my own. Jolein COMPLETELY dropped the ball in my case and her "associate" suggested we go to modify child support and then parenting time later, which is good if you're trying to get more money out of your client, but a terrible idea if the circumstances haven't changed enough for the law to grant the change to begin with. That's exactly what happened, I spent $13,000 on Jolein, and another $17,000 for my ex's legal fees and the case was thrown out. If I had the money I'd sue Jolein for malpractice.

I knew before I began my divorce that I would need an attorney to sort through all of the legal mumbo jumbo so I could get a fair shake. A co-worker recommended Jolein Harro, and after meeting her I retained her services. She really knows her stuff. She and her assistant and staff did an outstandi...ng job in getting my case ready, and she was great in handling the other attorney, who tried to bully us into a bad settlement. She stood up for my rights, and got me through a difficult time in my life. The parenting plan was fair to both myself and my ex-spouse. It was money well spent, as I ended up keeping three times as much as I thought I would have received before this all started. I highly recommend her for anyone going through a divorce, or has any issues concerning children, custody, or child support.
