Posted by Brian | September 20, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

The best attorney I could have hoped for

I can give no higher recommendation. I found myself in a difficult divorce case at long distance (Texas-California) and numerous complicating personal and financial issues. Honestly, it was overwhelming but Joann was a rock with a personal touch. She was always available for questions despite t...ime differences. Always worked with me to craft the outcome I wanted to have happen, guiding me as to consequneces and possible responses. She went above and beyond with counseling and calming when things seemed most overwhelming. Explaining how I and my kids would come through this time of difficulty not just legally but personally. She gave me the perspective to both legally find the best outcome but personally feel empowered in the system. Joann was both a strong advocate and a generous counselor. She truly cares about her clients. I will always be grateful to Joann for being there when we needed her most, she is simply the best.
