My son will be an in coming college freshman. In my original MSA, we did not include information regarding his 529 plan (this was completed by a different firm). My ex, who was in the primary holder of the account, refused to use the funds for my son’s education.
I hired Jim to allow my son access to these funds. Jim listened to the issues and went through the details of the MSA and found areas where we could approach my ex’s lawyer and request the 529 to be used for my son’s education. Ultimately, his father agreed to use all funds for my son’s education. This released both my son and I from the stress this huge financial responsibility had put on us.
I would highly recommend Jim for the care he demonstrated for our case, the details he was able to find in our MSA, his ability to complete the entire case in a timely manner (we were on a deadline for school enrollment) and the professionalism of his entire staff, who consulted with me at every step of the process.

I am in my fifties, and I have had my share of experiences with attorneys (family law, employment, real estate, etc). Out of the blue, I had a need for some advice on some family law matters. Through a contact, who similarly spoke highly of Jim, I ended up spending a 1hr complimentary consultation with him.
Not the first time I do these complimentary consultations, and so I was bracing for disappointment. Most of the time, the signal-to-noise ratio when speaking with attorneys is low, and much more so in initial consultations; where by and large you speak in generalities, superlatives, and, in the worst cases, FUD enters the equation.
I ought to have known this was going to be different. After all, Jim's office requested my documents well in advance so he could review. And it was evident that he had reviewed it.
To make a long story short, in the 45 minutes we talked, I got *all* my questions answered. We reviewed the documents on Zoom, he pointed to specific parts and what the implications were and, important also, he listened. I have found that many attorneys like to talk, but they do not necessarily listen, and thus many times you have to hear them tell and re-tell things you already know well. Jim was experienced enough, and humble enough to know how to listen, and avoid the soapbox as much as possible.
Towards the end of the meeting, and even though it was complimentary, I offered to pay him money. He certainly deserved it. He would not accept it, and negotiated me down to writing a review for him if I had time. I was going to do that anyways, but quite frankly, his candor was refreshing.
I wish I don't need an attorney ever again but when, and if I do, I hope they are half as good as Jim. He has essentially set the bar for "initial consultations" for all of them :-)
Thank you

It's clear that they value teamwork, and this sense of camaraderie translates into the exceptional results they achieve for their clients.

What a breath of fresh air Hoover/Krepelka turned out to be, and I am lucky to have found them. I didn't think my case was that complicated, until I started trying to get things done in court. I was out of my league, and so I called Jim Hoover's law firm, and it was the best decision I ever made. They make you feel like family there. So kind, comforting and friendly (small talk and a smile go a long way) and then when they started talking about the law, my case, and then the documents they were drafting and helping me to file. It was the best decision I made seeking their help and guidance. Special shout out to Rob Turner, who was kind, personable, funny, and super smart, and when it came to how to draft documents and accomplish our goals. GREAT LAW FIRM!

Amazing service from when I called to schedule an appointment, to when I walked in and sat down with my attorney. Listened to my needs, was patient with my questions which I'm sure they've heard thousands of times and helped me bring my family back together.
If I could give 6 stars I absolutely would, amazing people and amazing work.

I couldn't be happier with my experience with Jim Hoover and his team. He's incredibly knowledgeable, citing the specific relevant statutes and giving no-nonsense and specific answers to questions, like "if you took that to court, you'd have a 75% chance of winning."
My ex got a slightly more expensive lawyer in the area and they were incompetent by comparison. They'd regularly screw up the forms they were supposed to file on their end. My lawyers at Hoover handled them perfectly. The other lawyer would get tangled up for hours on irrelevant details like whether we say our son will finish "grade school" vs. "high school," (seriously?) and they'd encourage her to make unreasonable requests and to never compromise. Maybe that's for you, but if you want a result that's fair and you want to do it efficiently, then I couldn't give a higher recommendation.
