In 2005 I found out what dire straits I was in after my divorce. The business I had built with my ex-wife had dissolved and I was left with well over $100,000 in tax debt. I called Elizabeth Fletcher and after she thoroughly researched my records and my tax history, she was able to obtain an offer in compromise for me. I was able to pay off my tax debt in a couple of years rather than decades. I will never be able to express my sincerest gratitude for all that she accomplished in such a professional and expediated manner.

I was having financial issues with creditors, and one had served me with court papers. I hired Elizabeth to assist me. We weighed our options and decided on a bankruptcy. She and her paralegal Karen have been there even during this time of social distancing to guide me and answer my questions. She has had my best interest at heart and has done an excellent job in handling my case.

Erin did a fabulous job of helping secure our purchase of our new home after the seller wanted to back out just before our closing date. She took steps necessary to get us back on the closing track, and saw us through until keys were in our hands. We were, and are still very grateful for her work and effort in our difficult closing situation.

Once I hired Erin as my divorce attorney it took 9 months! (previous attorney could not close the case, took 31 months total). Erin is a passionate and detailed attorney. She analyzed and took time to research all the history in my case. She advised on a plan and was very informative on next steps. She was also upfront with costs. She entered my case 22 months in as if she was the attorney from the beginning. She didn't take any nonsense from the opposing attorney (whom was difficult, slow to respond, caused unnecessary friction). I have already recommended Erin to others.

John has been hired to assist with the distribution of a trust and real estate transaction. Is there a "bedside" manner for attorneys? If so John has it. Calm, professional, thorough. Explains complex scenarios so that they are easily understood. Gives broad spectrum of "what ifs" that might come into play. We couldn't be more pleased to have him by our side during a difficult time. We highly recommend John Mannix Jr. and are grateful to have been referred to him.

I had a great experience dealing with Mr. Mannix and his team. He is very up front and takes the time to explain everything before he moves forward. I knew nothing going into his office about estates and trust but John and his team walked me through the steps and was there to help. I have recommended him to my family and friends and I recommend him if you need estate planing and trust planning.

A good lawyer in getting my case resolved quickly through settlement. I brought in this firm in after another firm, outside of the venue in which I had civil action, took full advantage of making as much as they could in discovery. Thankfully this firm came in with little to do other than show up in court a few times and work out a settlement. I was encouraged from the onset to settle, which I found to be fair and ethical, particularly given how it had been previously handled.. Jim did a stellar job in working it out. I was given a last-minute bill via a crude email without any details, to the sum of five figures in the final hours of our settlement. After numerous requests for an itemized invoice with hours spent, phone calls, emails, etc., I finally received an one, but it was not itemized. While I will never truly know what I paid for (I like knowing exactly where my money goes), altogether the outcome was good and I have no other complaints.

Mr. Richard DeVall helped me through a difficult divorce. He was caring, friendly, and highly professional. He was easy to reach by phone or by just walking into the office. With over 30 years of experience, he seemed to know divorce law and family law better than most. He did special research for my case, and did an appeal for me, which I won. He was good with communication and he made me feel confident about my case. My first consultation with Mr. Richard DeVall was free and confidential. I was looking for a divorce lawyer whose office is discreet and quiet. Richard DeVall fit the bill. He has since helped my son with traffic tickets. I would go to him again if I needed advice. He practices all kinds of law. I highly recommend him.

He was able to get me exactly what I wanted!! I have the best custody schedule in Clinton County, He was able to make sure that both myself and the baby were protected, they got me a 3 year order of protection against the child's father and were able to get the visitations supervised every other Saturday at Family Connections. I was very happy with the family atmosphere that they provided. Michael made the process so easy for me, all I had to do was provide him with all the facts and with that he was able to get me to what order I have today. The prices are fair and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a good attorney!!!

I gave this firm 5 stars because that was the highest option available, they deserve 10. Theresa and Karen are truly wonderful and go above and beyond for their clients. My family has had multiple stellar experiences with these ladies which is why I chose to deal with them, my personal experiences with them is more than I could have hoped for. While handling the estate of my dad after his unexpected passing, there was so much to do and I had no idea where to start. I wasn't even sure how to become the legal executor to begin handling his affairs, never mind dealing with his portion of my deceased grandmothers estate or his home, vehicles, debts, insurance ect. These incredible ladies took my over whelming feelings of uncertainty and fear and gave me confidence and peace knowing everything was being taken care of. I've called and emailed more times than I can count inquiring about anything and everything and the response is always quick, clear and delivered with a happiness to help.
I can't say enough how amazing this firm is to deal with. They don't treat you like you're just another job, they truly care about their clients and that's something that is rare and priceless.

I worked with attorney Marissa Winch. I was going through a divorce. It has lots of questions. and fears. doing something like this is not easy. She helped me. through this whole process. She made me feel comfortable. and cared for. It was very nice. to have someone to communicate with. whom would listen to my concerns. Answer all of my questions. Let me vent when I needed to. Sometimes the divorce you need to met once in a while. Marissa was a good listener. I have had excellent communication with Marissa since she took up my case. I would recommend. The Caldwell law group. for your divorce concerns and needs. I especially would recommend, Attorney Marissa Winch. Since she is whom I communicated the most with. My divorce is finally coming to an end. Paperwork is just about complete. A waiting for the judges signature. Through all the help I've received. I now feel I can start life again anew.

Prompt communication. Very caring and comforting. Flexible communication options. Flexible availability. Made the effort to assist me in all ways I asked. Really took the time to understand what was important to me and provided guidance in line with that. Matched me with a specific attorney that was extremely well suited to all aspects of my situation, and although that's what matters, I think they also matched me with an attorney that suited me socially / energy wise, if that makes sense. Extremely professional and also made efforts to not waste resources (save me money). I called about 20 law offices, they actually called me back, took me seriously, and made the effort to stay in touch and provide updates every step of the way. Would recommend and use again. L* and K*, thank you so much for taking the time to help me.

Atty Kyle Starks Esq made more progress in a week than was made in nearly 6 months from another firm and was with me throughout the process, excellent use of practical language and demystifying the steps needed to progress. If you are a victim of narcissistic cyclic abuse and are struggling with the divorce process give Colewell a Call, they genuinely care, they hear you, they are on your side.
