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.

Very pleased client

I am so happy that a friend recommended Joni to me. After my initial consultation I knew she was the right person to hire as my divorce attorney. She was always caring and empathetic throughout the divorce process and she clearly explained proceedings in layman terms. She always dressed impeccably ...and in court came across as much more competent, organized and knowledgable than my ex's attorney. She encouraged me to try a one day mediation as a last resort in order to avoid a costly trial. The outcome was mostly favorable to me, thanks to Joni's professionalism and knowledge of family law. I have referred other people to Joni - that's how much I believe in her.

A WONDERFUL ATTORNEY! EXTRAORDINARY, INSIGHTFUL AND KEEN!

I am posting a picture of my son because Joni Salomon went to bat for us! When the worst thing happened in my custody case, She had my back and still does! She is an attorney like no other, EXTRAORDINARY, INSIGHTFUL AND KEEN! I can’t speak for everyone but her VOICE RESONATES TRUTH inside the courtro...om at every Hearing when the other side was lying. She’s helped me and my family thru the worst. Not only is she knowledgeable, but SHE WILL WONDERFULLY GUIDE YOU THRU YOUR DIVORCE And or CUSTODY CASE as “YOUR LEGAL COUNSEL!” When I got out of line in my language to the other side, she told me to watch my language. She will keep u from faltering. Goes above and beyond for you! LOVE HER TO THE MOON AND BACK!

Amazing

I hired Joni in desperate need of her assistance. She counseled me during the entire case. I was getting out of an abusive marriage. With her, I was able to get a restraining order, primary child custody and my life back. She took care of EVERYTHING. I didn't have to worry about things not g...etting done. I knew I was in good hands. She was more than a lawyer to me she was my guide my friend. She was sympathetic, someone who understood. She was my rock during my roller coaster of emotions. I am forever grateful.
