Colette Jolicoeur

Colette has been my attorney for over 7 years. She has been my advocate and confidant. She is experienced and knows law in her sleep. She cares about her clients and is super organized. She is cut throat and will always be up front and honest with you. There is a reason I’ve had her for all these yea...rs, she is irreplaceable to me and my family. If you want the best of the best, you want Colette.

I wasted my money and time hiring Colette Jolicoeur. None of my goals were accomplished in the divorce. I needed more child support for myself and two kids as I was a stay at home mom. My case was clear cut, but her response time was very slow. I always had to call or show up at her office to try and... get any information I could. I had filled out most of my paper work before even hiring Colette. I mainly wanted her to review my documents, correct any issues, and fight for me in court. It seemed in court she was not organized. I'm sure this did not help my case. Once the case was finished she was very responsive when it came to her bill. I felt I was over charged for her services. She became very unprofessional when i questioned some charges and stated she would sue me if I failed to pay the amount billed. I did paid the full amount because I was just done with everything at the end of my divorce.

I had one of the worst divorces on the central coast. My ex-husband had a well-known and overrated attorney, and I had Colette Jolicoeur. My husband’s attorney is well-known for running up huge bills, so if you think you are getting a great bulldog attorney think again. We won every decision from th...e judge. It did cost a lot of money, but not near as much as my ex-husband paid for his attorney, which I estimate he paid about $200,000. All I was asking for was half the equity in our home, which was a little under $100,000. But my ex-husband ended up paying triple because of his attorney, who put a lien on his house. This attorney likes to send letters, go to court when it's not needed, and generate massive amounts of paperwork. He likes to create a lot of drama in the courtroom, and make his client sit on the stand for hours in order to drive up his bill. My attorney’s bill was no where near the cost of my ex-husband’s, but it was a good chunk, because of the constant letters my attorney received and had to respond to because of all of the nonsense. I highly recommend Colette Jolicoeur, she is very intelligent, honest, no drama and she kicked his ass! Caroline E
