Grace and Tenacity

I have the utmost respect for April Stancliff due to her professionalism, fair assessment of my situation and genuinely caring approach. She takes the time to really listen while giving a fair and accurate account of where I stood on each issue. Her honesty helped in managing expectations and demon...strated to me that she has an in-depth understanding of the law with experience to back it up. As the process unfolded, April was prompt in responding to my concerns, well prepared during mediation and exceptional in the courtroom. When my case ended, I was impressed by the manner in which April handled every situation with grace or tenacity (when needed). I highly recommend April for any of your legal needs. Thank you, April!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You April

I was devastated by my divorce, I had no knowledge of the process nor was i in the state of mind to make any decisions regarding the divorce. April was knowledgeable and caring. She made sure I was informed in detail on the process. She knows the law. At one point in the mediation the mediator and th...e opposing Atty challenged her knowledge on alimony, they were positive they were right, April stood her ground and after all was said and done, April was right, and I was impressed with her confidence in her knowledge. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you April for caring.

a help in time of need

April came recommended by my lawyer Sonya Ground as a help with the mediation for my divorce. When I met April she heard what my case was about and figured out ways to find more about things that I didnt know were possible. At mediation she went over the things that I needed to talk about and if ther...e was anything else I could bring up. During that time she explained to me what was offered in case I didnt understand and was very helpful the whole time. We were able to come to an agreement that both parties were agreeable to and not have to come back for another session. If anyone came to me asking if I knew someone that could help out with a legal problem I would tell them to find her.

It is wonderful to work with a lawyer on the other side with whom you can have a conversation and actually work things out. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and would highly recommend her for military issues in divorce."
