Posted by Ashlea | August 03, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Simple Divorce Paperwork

I had a very straight forward divorce with the exception of wanting the parenting plan to be specific in cases involving domestic violence and supervised visits. I sent an email and then spoke with Mike very shortly after. He seemed very confident and happy to help and once the fee was paid I dealt w...ith a rude and un-thorough paralegal via email back and forth. I did not get all documents that were needed and the information was more vague than to pay an automated computer to do an online divorce for you. Waste of time, money and patience.

Posted by Tiffany | March 01, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

My review is lengthy, however please read it, this Law Firm deserves my gratification and you should hear from a pleased client.

I'm very sorry to read what happened with the other person who gave a rating of 1 star. I feel the other person’s rating is a point of view out of dozens. However, it's common that people don't take time out of their day to give a positive review but quick to give a negative review. I just want peopl...e to know that my experience was great from the beginning to the end. I was extremely happy with the outcome of my divorce case. I did not have to go to court and was able to settle things in mediation. I had the opportunity to meet the Office Manager/ Paralegal/ on her way to be a Legal Technician (impressive) Christine. She did my intake. Christine was so understanding and comforting. I knew this was a good start and a good sign. Then I spoke with Associate Attorney Brian Neuharth. He really didn't have to take time out of his schedule to talk to me about my case before Managing Attorney Mike Moceri was ready to meet with me, yet he did. My divorce case would seem to be an easy one, but there were twists and turns that made it unusually a bit more difficult than it needed to be. I wanted and needed the help. Mike did not have to take my case, but he did even though we both discussed that he would be in trial the day of my mediation, and one of his associate attorneys would accompany me in mediation. However, he would go to trial with me if it indeed had to go to trial. There were only 3 weeks before mediation and the Law Firm still took my case. Brian Holden was the Associate Attorney scheduled to be with me during mediation. Having him there was a huge relief and worth every penny. I truly feel my outcome would not have been as successful as it was without the support and assistance of Brian in addition to the backing of the Law Firm. Every single staff member that I encountered showed more concern about my case than expected. I know they have many clients other than me, but I sure feel like they went above and beyond to assured me they would do their best, yet also very forthcoming of worst-case scenarios based on their experience and how the law interprets a case like mine. My comfort and right away huge reduction of stress was greatly put at ease. In my mind, knowing that the worst-case scenario from them, I felt, would be better than any worst-case scenario I could have possibly gotten for myself. Bonus, I got exactly what I wanted and the help that I needed to make that possible. The outcome was better than I could have expected. If you take the time and go to their website and see the BIOS about the many memberships, accreditations and awards that they have, it shows, and I see why they received all these awards. Rightfully so! I assure you I knew nothing about this Law Firm, aside from what their website said before I hired them; my review is genuine. I wanted to share my experience, so others don’t miss the opportunity to work with this Law Firm. Go meet them in person, you will see! Will I hire them again if I need an attorney for any of the other services they provide? Most definitely yes!
