Relocation with Parenting Plan Modification

When Julie took our case it was in shambles from a previous attorney attempting to do too much at once. The situation was grave and our case seemed un-winnable as all hope was lost. She made some very strategic recommendations that would ultimately help solidify our position going into a very importa...nt hearing. Considering that Julie had to repair a badly broken case from a previous inexperienced attorney, at the time what she asked seemed impossible to attain. Ultimately her advise was both sound and in our best interest of our case and our future. Her attention to detail and vigor was apparent when it came to going through large amounts of case files. She was able to articulate our entire case (over a year’s worth of documentation) into a relatively short and concise final argument that clearly communicated the issues that were of great importance. She helped us get through a very tough, drawn out case that had multiple components blown very much of proportion and not of importance to our relocation case.

Simply the best

As a a lawyer and a client, I can honestly say Julie is the best in her business. I have had experience with domestic lawyers in many states, Julie Caputo sets the standard. Her strategy, professionalism and trial skills are superior. If you need a domestic lawyer, you need Julie Caputo. She has neve...r lost in our case and is immediately responsive. She works tirelessly and communicates clearly. She is a full service law firm in one. There is no other lawyer I would want representing me or my family.

Status quo

When looking to hire an attorney, the question you need to ask is "Who wants to win"? Julie is a nice person, a better attorney than most. It's just that the opposing attorney, in our case, was better, and she wanted to win. Julie just didn't see it coming and she was out maneuvered.
