This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

It's only 2 ladies and 1 part time assistant, weird hours too! BEWARE _

2 stars at best! Very poor at communication and negotiations. Extremely good at manipulation and "billable hours" ? WTF ! #terrible

Run! They are terrible at giving expensive advice:(

My wife & I hired them to handle our divorce. We both wanted amical, quick and fair. We both wanted this to be pain-free and pleasant as we both were on the same page with wanting to part ways on this legal contract. Here we are months later still trying to figure this out as this attorney has bee...n a nightmare to deal with - they seem to stir the pot between me and my spouse, I suspect they’re after more billable hours — or maybe I did something personal to offend them ?? Not sure, but I highly recommend you stay as far away from this law firm as possible. And if your spouse hires this law firm, be prepared for months if not a year of hassle and headache - it’s honestly been insane to watch these money hungry”(Lawyer)” try to get us to ‘battle’ each other over all these petty things… •••> Run! They are BAD at giving very expensive advice (imo)

Poor communication and service

I had an international family law case. I would have preferred a lawyer not taking the money they way she did, as the experience and practice not in international family law was not present, instead of taking a case and then having me do some of the work as it was in a different language. Poor exp...erience and then I received follow up and change in procedures that were never addressed (regardless their contrary guidance) then consequently a withdrawal of counsel. Horrible experience. Would not recommend

I would highly recommend BartonWood to anyone in need of a family law firm.

Working through my divorce with Ashley and Brooke made the whole awful process a lot more tolerable. They worked quickly and efficiently and always responded to my calls and emails immediately. Ashley is always calm and level headed and was never ruffled by my ex's crazy antics. I really appreciat...ed this quality in her. I would highly recommend BartonWood to anyone in need of a family law firm.

Guidance and Honesty

Ashley Wood is amazing. I hired her for assistance with my relocation case. She is very knowledgeable in family law and has a passion for what she does. She is very attentive and prompt in all of my encounters with her. I appreciate how she listens to my concerns and is very honest with me in what ca...n potentially take place in my case. I completely trust that she is always looking out for the best situation for me and my children.
