5 stars and I will tell you why

Justine is dependable, knowledgeable, and was there when I needed her. She was well prepared in all our court appearances and I felt that I was well represented. When I was sitting in the courtroom listening to the other cases and other attorneys, I felt bad for the other people because their at...torneys were ill prepared and did not do the proper steps in their cases. That's when I appreciated and realized that I was very blessed because Justine was my attorney. She kept me up to date with details in my case. She would also followed up on matters wherever the other attorney dropped the ball. Divorce is a very traumatic experience and you need to be able to rely on your attorney to protect you and to make sure you're well represented. There were times where I just told Justine that my own judgement was clouded and that I needed her to do the thinking for me. I trusted her that much and I'm glad that I did. I felt protected. I felt at ease and I felt assured that If I forgot something, Justine wouldn't. Justine was so easy to talk to and easily accessible and she answered questions I had-- promptly and clearly. She was fiscally responsible. She sent me an invoice promptly and gave me different options for taking care of the bill. She actually would tell me ways on how to save money as far as handling matters in the case. My friend recommended Justine and I felt very comfortable with her on the phone. I had an urgent matter and sent texts and calls out to different attorneys, and Justine was first one to respond to my plea . That was the main deciding factor on why I hired her. I am so glad she answered me when she did. Thanks Justine!

No hidden fees and very competent.

I hired Justine Dell in 2014 to make some changes in my marital settlement agreement. She was very professional, and efficient. I would highly recommend her.

EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY

Justine is a very professional, competent, honest, and compassionate attorney who works hard for you without wasting time and money. She has the type of personality that instantly put me at ease and made it easy for me to talk to her, but at the same time, was astute and sharp-witted when it came to ...getting my case resolved. I would highly recommend Justine to anyone looking for a family/divorce attorney.

Great experience

Justine kept everything very professional and in a caring way. She is straight forward, very knowledgeable, and works hard to get the situation handled swiftly. she does not cut corners but finds ways to keep things moving so no time is wasted (time is money). I was always in the loop on my situation... and was given options that were explained simple enough and in enough detail to make an educated decision.

Fantastic

After almost 3 years and a lot of money spent with another lawyer on a uncontested divorce I decided to fire them. A friend of mine gave me Justine's number. What a blessing! We set up a meeting at her office and discussed my case with her, after I was done she looked up at me ( I'm 6' 6" ) and said,... Don't worry I will handle this for you. In less then 28 days it was all over and I am now divorced. Who says GREAT things don't com in small packages. Again Justine thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
