An Uber ride turned into a nightmare when another car ran a red light and crashed into us. They made sure I was compensated for my injuries.

Hiring Shaun Hanson & working with his paralegal Monica were a blessing to me. Shaun was always there in court, meeting me (if needed), gave me his legal opinion AND fought for me when it counted. Monica was always on top of my case with paperwork filled out properly & on time, having me do stuff for her to save me money AND always getting back to me promptly via email or phone calls. I was VERY blessed being recommended to Shaun & his firm by a friend, hiring him AND having him & his legal team fighting for me. They made my divorce & custody battle less painful then it already was...by made us feel more safe & secure knowing we had someone fighting on our behave. I would hire AND recommend his legal services to friends & family...which I already have. Thank God for Shaun & Monica in mine AND my kids lives!!!

I absolutely DO NOT recommend Shaun Hanson to anyone. Do your homework. Interview multiple attorney's. Your money and time is worth so much more than having this man on your side who will do nothing for you, but take your money. I did more work on my own with a friend than what he did for me. The one hearing I had, he spoke up once. I lost the 80% custody of my kids and had to pay my abuser alimony. This should have never happened when I have a restraining order on my spouse. It was very difficult to determine were my case was at any given time. Because in reality nothing was being done. I was told of a court hearing the same wk. Very poor communication from Shaun. However, his accountant was always sure to call me. I spoke up to defend my case and his lack of productivity, but Shaun stated I was being disrespectful.....ladies, you don't need a man like this representing you. Specially if this is how your ex-behaves. Not caring, not helpful to my case, charged too much for backwards steps taken. There are 10 times better attorney's out there. So sad that this law firm exists.

I highly recommend Shaun Hanson. He is incredibly bright, knows the law and demonstrates a passion for his profession. Shaun and his office were very responsive to my inquiries responding within a day of receiving my messages. He has a way of grounding all parties which fosters an amicable approach to resolving the dissolution of marriage. Shaun researched information for me and presented fair options. He was honest about the pros and cons of pursuing each path. These options allowed each of us to feel good about our compromises therefore enabling us to draft a final agreement quickly. He was very considerate of the painful feelings associated with divorce and empathic. Shaun also ensured that the needs of our children were a priority. This office is extremely knowledgeable, kind, professional, yet not pretentious or exploitive. I highly recommend their services.

Avoid at all cost unless you want to waste your money. I retained Taryn to help in the custody battle that I’m been going through with my ex husband. The court date finally came and I never seen the judge. We sat in a room outside of court where she proceeded to hand write what my ex should pay in child support and health insurance. She came late, spent 45 minutes with me (talking about her kids) explained nothing, the billed me for over 2 hours of time that she was not there for. She didn’t address the back child support, the attorneys fees, or the scheduling adjustment that I was wanting. She had me show up in court to complete something that could have been done in her office months earlier. I had to call her pissed off for her to explain why nothing got addressed that day, just for her to bill be for the conversation that should have happened when we were in court

Constant charges for useless communication. Every email with a miniscule update cost me a few hundred dollars. I am taking my ex back to court with a new lawyer and have some much better results coming forth. They were much more interested in passing the buck and going to the gym. 2 stars because he did come up with a decent idea about how to split alimony and child support. $40k+ for a two star result. I would check elsewhere before committing to this group.

I don’t post reviews too often, but I had such a bad experience here that I felt the need to leave a review. I had chosen this firm after having free consultations with many places. I was told that the firm had dealt with cases like mine before and that it would be a very easy divorce. Their price seemed fair compared to other places and I was told that I most likely would get some money back from the original estimate/retainer. The timeframe for completing the divorce also seemed good; I had been told I would be in the waiting period in about 3-4 months. Based on what I was told by the firm I went with their services. I started the process in February 2022. In July 2022, after things were already taking longer than expected, and I was not receiving updates to why there was a delay, I talked with the attorney on my case and was told that within three weeks my case should be in default, which would have been around the end of August. August comes and goes, and I hear nothing, so on September 9 I called for an update and was told that the default would now be filed in a week or two. To make a very long story short, they got rid of the attorneys that were on my case and then totally forgot about my case. As a result, the timeframe to enter the default had passed and therefore they had to refile it. The worst part is that they were not even aware that my case was never handed off to another attorney until I called wondering why nothing was happening on my case. Furthermore, the person I spoke to on the phone tried to give me the run around, lying to me, like everything was happening the way it was supposed to, until she finally had to admit that they completely forgot about my case. This made the rest of the process very confusing and take much longer than what I was originally told, as they basically had to start the process over. I received a call from Ms. King, the owner of the firm, apologizing for their mistake but not offering anything to make right their mistake. I wasn’t sure what I had been charged for from the original attorney and now, with it needing to be redone if I would be charged twice for the same services. After combing through the invoices, I did find a few things that were double charged that they did refund me for, but I had to go back through the receipts and look very carefully. At this point I was already to the original estimate. I am aware that the initial estimate is only an estimate, but in the end, it cost me 3 times as much as I was quoted, which is frustrating after being told that I would probably get money refunded to me from the original amount I was first quoted. This was an uncontested divorce with all terms mutually agreed upon by me and my ex, so not complicated. In addition, it also took almost 3 times as long as what I was originally told, mainly due to the firm dropping my case after the attorneys working on it were let go. When I addressed this issue with them, about how it was costing much more and taking much more time than what I was initially told during my consultation, primarily due to their mess up with dropping my case, they would not take any responsibility or compensate me in any way. Their reasoning was that they let the two attorneys that messed my case up go so they were not responsible for what those attorneys told me. How can a firm not be responsible for what their lawyers say just because they fired them? How can a firm not take any responsibility as far as trying to make things right after completely forgetting about someone’s case? Finally, how can a firm charge their client for the time it takes to redo paperwork and filings due to their lawyer’s/staff’s negligence, regardless that they fired those lawyers? In the end I felt completely taken advantage of. Did I expect my case to be handled for free? No, of course not, but I did expect my case to be handled professionally, which it was not, and no effort was given to adjust for the firm’s errors nor was anyone fort

Rachel and her team are amazing. They were not only knowledgeable, communicative and responsive but also the best support system I could have had on my case. Rachel was instrumental in the successful outcome, leading me throughout the process and helping me to understand every option available. While she allowed me to make the final call with every decision, her candid advice and suggestions along with her ability to predict the outcome of every angle proved her to be trustworthy and I was always confident in her ability to fight for my best interest. I can't speak highly enough of Rachel and her firm. I'm thankful to have had her in my corner through the most challenging time in my life.

Rachel really knows how to connect with her clients. She is not the stereotypical fact-only seeking attorney. She really seeks to understand who she is working with so she can be of greater service to them. I highly recommend!

I would like to share some details in regards to an ongoing case that daniel was handling for us. However, due to our complaints of his ineffectiveness. And his paralegals' inability to create professional documents, he decided we were too much of a hassle and could earn easier money somewhere else. If you have hired this firm and they have not delivered on anything that they have said or promised And have continuously just taken money from you. Please reach out to me so we can put a stop to this together. Family court is hard enough. We should have an attorney that is on our side.
Update: I've requested a refund for services because of the lack of work and have been ignored. I filed a bar complaint.

I strongly recommend that you do research before hiring this firm. I spoke with Catherine Vincent originally and my case was handled by Daniel "Rat" His inexperience has shown throughout my case and I feel like everything is a wreck because of him.

My experience with Attorney Joelle Moore was horrible. It was hard to get any information that I needed out of her. She would avoid answering my questions. She did a poor job at keeping up with things. She did a poor job at listening to what I had to say and she would twist your words around and tellyou something happened when it didnt. She made alot of wrongful assumptions and she had a bad habit of telling you how something happened instead of listening to you telling her how it really happened. I will never recommend Attorney Joelle Moore to anyone, not even my worst enemy.
