The BEST EVER!

Finding Joni was a God send! Literally!! I heard her commercial on the radio and wrote her phone number down. A year later, when I decided I needed a lawyer, I couldn’t find her number so I prayed about it. The next day I got in my car driving home from work and her commercial came on the radio! I pu...lled over in my car and immediately called her and was able to speak with her. I made my appointment and met this wonderful, intelligent, compassionate woman who understood what I was going through, and what I needed to do. Joni not only helped me through the most desperate time in my life, but also became my friend. She was always there for me answering any of my questions, sometimes in the wee hours of the morning. I would describe Joni as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. She looks so sweet but she is fierce and gets the job done!! She knows how to handle opposing lawyers, her knowledge of judges and the court system is remarkable. She lead me away from a certain court that was convenient and close to me to make sure I got the best judge. She was ALWAYS PREPARED! She fought for me and the result was beyond what I had ever imagined. Because of Joni, I am financially secure and have a new career, home and peace of mind. I would recommend Joni to anyone who is going through a painful situation, not only for her knowledge of the law but…. She is compassionate and understanding

My Consultaion with Joni Salomon

I spoke with Joni Salomon recently regarding my family High conflict case. I have been going through truma as well as my daughter during the process. It is very draining. She was very knowledgeable and gave me insights on my case that my previous attorney had not, I was left confused and felt alon...e even with my counsel. I was even asked a inappropriate questions. I had a Attorney that did not help me understand the process and did not fight for me our my child, im left with a big bill and still need legal representation and that alone made my counsel a horrible experience for me. For quit some time I have been looking all over for a excellent Attorney to represent me and Speaking with Joni it made it very clear what I was experiencing in my case, Joni is very knowledgeable and was super helpful, very professional and kind and passionate. I pray soon I can obtain Joni and receive the proper counsel. Thank you so much for taking your time out of you're day to make it clear to me my circumstances. Very appreciative! I Highly recommend Joni Ellishia Salomon! Wishing you and your family the very Best!

Excellent job with a difficult case

My divorce was a lengthy high-conflict one. It was very stressful for me, but Joni remained professional, knowledgable, and competent at all times. Nothing surprised her; she had a plan for everything. She empathized with me, but also wisely advised me when I needed direction. I very much appreci...ated having her on my team.

My deliverer in a time of trouble

I called Joni at my father’s and brother’s insistence. They had heard about her on the radio and believed she could help. I had come out of a “gas lighting” relationship and my ex had managed to get so many people on board with him. I was overwhelmed with literally just trying to survive and was bein...g crushed by a divorce that should have been, as crazy as it sounds, “simple”. Our kids were grown, and with the exception of splitting the house I was allowing him to keep everything and yet somehow that wasn’t enough. In my despair I called out to GOD and He answered me by sending Joni. I was hesitant to call her because I was broke and was afraid that one more person would fall prey to my Ex’s tactics. To my surprise Joni was kind and didn’t charge me the consultation. Instead, she was honest and looked into my case to see whether it was something she could help me with. As she looked into it, we found that my Ex seemed to have gotten get my lawyer on board too which explained the overwhelming pressure. I hired Joni right away and within a month she was able to accomplish what was taking 3 ½ years. Joni is an angel and Godsend in time of trouble. She is extremely efficient, fair and has that fine balance of class and kindness while putting up a fight. She is worth her weight in gold, has become a dear friend, and I’d her again in a heartbeat.

Bronx to Cali

Ten years ago in 2010, I found myself in Los Angeles County Superior Court, fighting to spend more time with my two year old daughter Cali. My first lawyer undeserved me and over charged me, creating a hardship for me by influencing me to travel from the Bronx to Los Angeles every other week, (yes, e...very other week) for several months, with supervised visitations and only two hours increment visits. I incurred thousands of dollars in airfare, hotels, rental cars, food, etc.; none of these monthly expenses were tax deductible or towards child support. I fired that Attorney and found the best, most compassionate, intelligent, and knowledgeable lawyer in Los Angeles, Ms. (Queen) Joni Solomon, Esq. Joni, immediately ended that hardship and I started having sleepovers with my daughter, her guidance and leadership allowed the judge to see that my daughter needed her father and that she should spend a reasonable amount of time with both families. I am happy to say in 2020, that my 12 year old daughter has a strong relationship with both sides of her family and a copious amount of love for her daddy and I of her. Thank you Joni, for your dedication to ensure that families are treated fairly and that children are protected. You are the best! Respectfully, Sekou
