It took us years to finish writing our trust and will. Marilee was the most patient person ever in holding our hand, understanding how emotionally draining this can be, and allowed us to take the time needed to complete this arduous process. She asked pertinent questions, gave us answers to our questions and walked us through the process. We would recommend her to anyone!

My experience with Marilee Miller Clarke, Attorney, outside of the church context I knew her in, was not what I expected. I found her approach litigious rather than mediating. What I thought was a firm quote based on an email, turned out not to be. She reduced her bill to $2,005 instead of the $800 quoted me in an email. When I questioned her fee, I received no apology, but self-justification. Mistakes I pointed out involved omissions on her part, tone, typos from her and her staff, introducing an error, and unnecessary complexities. She charged me for her time involving those changes even though I pointed out that they were her or her staff’s mistakes. She drew a legal document to correct the work of another attorney. I can only hope that it will serve its purpose if and when needed.

I recommend Marilee Miller Clarke without reservation.
Her knowledge of the law, and years of experience Practicing law in Arizona were a clear advantage to us in the legal action she helped us with. In the beginning, she explained many aspects of the legal proceedings that were not clear to us, and help us come to a strategy for proceeding. She is patient and thorough, but she will not run up the bill by speaking at length with you if she has what she needs to do the work. She answers all communications promptly, and you should be prepared to do the same for her as she has a very strong work ethic and you do not want to slow her down.
She is a strong strategic thinker, and helped us achieve our goals. In a dissolution case with contested child custody, she was able to achieve a win, in spite of many obstacles and prejudices which do not favor a win for the father. She is an excellent communicator, both written and spoken. For written court documents, she leaves no detail unattended. Her Courtroom demeanor is thorough, respectful and effective. She has an amazing ability to think quickly on her feet and adjust strategy quickly when required.
We are so grateful to her and her very professional staff, for all they have done to help our family. We hope we are done with legal stuff for now, but if not, we would rely on her in the future.

I've only had Tabitha for a couple court hearing's but she seems to care and has been very helpful so far. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in need. She's my public defender, but if I could afford an attorney she'd definitely be the one.

There's a lot of lawyer's out there but not everyone wants to deal with family law "Probably because of the drama involved" but when I meet and hired Tabitha as my lawyer to represent me in court she completly understood my situation and handled my case really professional and always answered promptly to my emails, texts and phone calls. Tabitha is an amazing lawyer and a life saver as we finally obtained custody of my son and my case was very difficult. I'm very thankful for chosing Tabitha as my lawyer.

I couldn't be more impressed with Jay from the Hall Underwood Law Firm. My husband had asked a question on AVVO regarding a situation we were dealing with with and Jay responded very quickly and offered a consultation. We knew immediately after speaking with Jay that we would hire him to help us with our legal situation. Jay always had our best interest in mind and was also very upfront to set expectations through our legal battle which was much appreciated. He was always incredibly quick to respond to our emails which made communication a breeze. It is so hard to find and attorney you can trust that actually cares for you. We can't thank you enough Jay for everything you did for our us. If you're looking for a family law attorney please contact the Hall Underwood Law Firm.

Kip had a minor disadvantage in my case, he was hired approx. 45 days prior to my trial date . Another member of the same firm was the primary reason why I had to make a drastic change in the final hour . This particular lawyer did nothing for my case would constantly cancel appointments with me most of which would of been telephonic and refused to respond to emails or voice mail messages.
That said if he couldn't prepare himself for the trial, he should not of accepted the case. His lack of dedication and preparation for my case in particular created much hardship for me . My credibility was questioned over a very basic mistake on his part. Documents I sent to the firm with proof that they were received were never forwarded over to opposing firm. In fact even after the trial and the verdict was handed down, he was in receipt of a very simple agreement between the mother and I and he advised me that she was not in agreement and responded to me with in 8 minutes of receiving the email and its my opinion he never bothered to read the agreement which now I am stuck dealing with the ramifications of this . It has created a whirlwind spin on a relation that the mother and I were trying to salvage some how . I filed a motion based on his recommendation, motion was denied by the courts, in fact the courts came down heavy and hard on me for this . In typical Kip fashion he refused to accept any fault on this. If he would of actually took the time to read the agreement, he so generously charged me to read, this would of all been avoided.
If you are looking to have your case put on the back burner, be over charged and are looking to hire lawyers with lack of care or knowledge about your case or your family THEN YES HIRE THIS FIRM. they greatly do care about money, their money that is.

I, would gladly share my experience, as a former client of Kip Micuda. For one thing, I must admit, am not fond of lawyers, as a general rule. However, I am pleased to write this comment on Kip Micuda Esq. I needed some legal advice & support, regarding a personal matter. The law firm of Hildebrand Law was referred by a friend. Not knowing who I 'll discuss my situation with, I went with an open mind. Mr. Kip Micuda, met me in their conference room. He came across as very personable and professional (I am an M.D. as well) was very glad that after I laid my problems, he showed empathy, & understanding . He laid down my legal options and possible consequences of each. Aside from making me feel comfortable, his knowledge & professionalism regarding my case was obvious. With his guidance, I made my legal decisions as to how to approach my case. After he had written letters on my behalf, he followed up with me as to how matters were going. I am pleased & grateful for his empathy, knowledge & professionalism regarding my case. It was a pleasure being a client of Kip Micuda Esq.

I made the right decision to hire Kip Micuda at Hildebrand Law. I interviewed several lawyers before hiring Kip. Kip and his staff are well organized. Their organization and approach to the case helped me figure out what needed to be done. Kip was very supportive and he approached the issue logically. He also did a great job at aptly protecting me from the accusations made by my ex's attorneys. Kip has the experience, knowledge and skill set to represent well. I highly recommend him.

Mr Sherrill and his staff are incredible. My case was being drawn out by poor opposing counsel (who was subsequently disbarred for three years) but Gerry and Janet kept at it and eventually got me where I needed to be! Everything was done in a timely and professional manner. I could not have asked for anything more. Hire them.

Patience, organization, tenacity, and a depth of knowledge about every eventuality are mere features of the service provided over the years by Mr. Sherrill. Along With a delightful and knowledgeable support staff, Mr. Sherrill took on a case that had already been years in the making when he began with us. From family court to appeals court to juvenile court , Mr. Sherrill has seen us through some ridiculous times in dealing with a slippery and devious ex-husband. I feel confident in recommending he take on similar cases because he has the skill and temperament to solve any family court mess and he does it in a way that is reassuring for those who hire him. Always fair but fierce, he serves up justice with a twinkle in his eye. (We think he would make a wonderful judge someday.)

Mr, Sherrill was by far the best lawyer I could have asked for. He went above and beyound to help me with my case and make sure i fully understood what was going on. His intelligence and full knowledge of the law made it easy for him to be straight to the point and vocal with me so i never felt confused, worried, or left with tons of questions. He wasted no time in getting my case handled. Where as the laywer I had before kept going in circles, dragging it onand making me feel very worried about whats to come. But that wasnt the case when I let him go and got Mr. Sherrill on my side! after going in circles for months he took my case and had it handled and finished in weeks and i was very happy with the outcome. This is why he has been in the buisness for 29 years, he truly loves what he does,cares about his cilents, and will never beat around the bush! thats why I will always highly recommend him and say hes the best!

I've tried calling three times now.
The first time I tried scheduling an appointment , the receptionist told me she's not able to book appointments for This lawyer because she doesn't know his schedule ... What?
So what exactly does a receptionist do then if not to book future appointments ? She told me the lawyer would call me himself when he was available to book me in. I never got a call.
I've tried calling two other times now only for the phone to ring with no answer.
If this is how they handle new clients , makes me wonder how they handle current existing clients. It's a shame because they were referred to me by a friend.

I recently moved from Arizona to New York and I contacted a New York divorce attorney to handle my case. She advised me that I had to file in Arizona. She recommend several attorneys including Kiilu Davis. Kiilu is a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. The AAML’s mission is “To provide leadership that promotes the highest degree of professionalism and excellence in the practice of family law. To be represented by a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers is to be represented by a leading practitioner in the field of family law”.
I came to him as a truly shattered woman after a 30 year marriage. At our first meeting, Kiilu was professional, calm, and comforting . . . understanding that for many people, a divorce is one of the most difficult things to go through in life. I explained my situation. He listened, summarized my situation and concerns and provided me with the necessary feedback confirming that he heard and understood my situation. He was also very clear with me about the divorce process, something I knew nothing about, clear about the time frame, what information that I would need to supply to him, and what I should expect throughout the challenging journey. After our first meeting I was sure that he was the right person to handle my divorce.
Kiilu always spoke with me calmly and respectfully. I was extremely conflicted and afraid and he helped me sort through my emotions without "selling" me his services. He answered every question and pointed out additional issues that would never have occurred to me. He fought for me while I faced an angry and emotional husband with an extremely aggressive attorney. He nurtured me, always treating me with compassion and respect. He repaired me and helped me get through the darkest period of my life. Without hesitation, I would recommend Kiilu Davis to anyone that needed his services.

Professionally. From the moment that I met Kiilu, I knew that he was an extra-ordinary person and attorney. He came to me highly-recommended from a friend in Tucson. He has lived up to all of those expectations, and far exceeded them.
At our first meeting, Kiilu was professional, and calm, and comforting . . . understanding that for many people, a divorce is one of the most difficult things to go through in life, especially when it is complicated with businesses, and especially when it involves children. He was also very clear with me about the divorce process (something I knew nothing about) . . . Clear about the time frame, what information that I would need to supply to him, and what I should expect throughout the challenging journey.
Integrity and Intelligence. Two qualities which Kiilu prominently possesses. Even when we were up against a less-than-scrupulous attorney, Kiilu remained true to his integrity, and honored the letter of the law. He always “crossed his T’s and dotted his I’s”. He was always one step ahead of the game. Kiilu was timely with all of his correspondence, and at all times was completely prepared for court. He impressed me with his thoroughness, knowledge, and attention to detail.
I just cannot think of one negative attribute to say about Kiilu. He has a gift for his job, and I am so grateful for that gift. When I was at my weakest, he gave me strength. When I would lose faith in the system, he proved to me that, with due diligence, justice would prevail.
Personally. As far as that goes, Kiilu is an amazing, genuine and strong person. He carried me through some very tough times with his levity, support and reassurance.
During the process of my divorce, Kiilu went through two tragedies with me . . . A bout with colon cancer for me, and the death of my teen-age son. Two days after Max died, Kiilu was at my house. Having young sons of his own, it was the first time that I had ever seen him visibly shaken. I will never forget that act of kindness.
For me, the highest professional accolade that you can give to someone is to recommend them to a close friend or a family member. Without hesitation, I would recommend Kiilu to my dearest friend or my most be-loved family member. No doubt.

I recommend Mr. Davis without any hesitation for a divorce or custody issue.
Efficient: My divorce was very complicated with multiple assets, businesses, etc. Completed in 9 months. Mr. Davis knows people and is a very good predictor of behavior which assists him in his efficiency. He doesn't string you along with false expectations. He stays calm and cool and always seems to be thinking 3 steps ahead. He also isn't necessarily going to clue you in on every detail, thought and process unless you ask him to. He will make sure all angles are covered but tells you what you need to hear to minimize your own personal stress. After it was all finished and I could breathe I was able to look back on all of it and realize how much his calculated strategy assisted in a successful and fair and efficient outcome. If ever I thought he missed something and asked he always seemed to have it covered already. On a more sensitive side...when I was most stressed he helped me to take a less emotional approach and remain objective and focused on the task at hand.

Joseph Shanahan is a strong, vocal and direct attorney. He reviews all information leading into the hearings and cone prepared with a plan and sees it through to completion. He is not intimidated and will advocate for what is right. Our family is incredibly grateful to Joseph and his team for ALL of their hardwork and dedication to our family, our daughter and our grandson. Because of his dedication and hard work, we will get to see our grandson and daughter be deservedly reunited. We would give 10 stars if we could!

Attorney Joseph Romiro-Shanahan is a very approachable, clear communicator with unwavering sound judgement and all that we hope a lawyer to be. He heard me as a mother, listened as a fellow human being and took action and pace that brought my daughter rightfully back home to me. One can safely entrust their children and parent rights and legal matters into his hands. Without exaggeration, the Law Office of Joseph Ramiro-Shanahan, which includes attorney Jessica Strain and staff, delivered legal representation services with incredible kindness and generosity of heart. This only matched by their effectiveness. We had a right and good outcome; something possibly achievable 5 attorneys ago but that's the difference between right and possible and seeing it through until a mom and daughter are together again.

Scott Williams has represented me in several real estate related matters and he is amazing. He knows the law so well that I pity any one he goes against.

Scott knows his real estate law but I found it very frustrating that the communication was weak. After the first hearing which we were told that he would let us know the results immediately after he was out of the court ... we had to call multiple times (5 to 7 times) including calling mid day just to be told he was out to lunch...we would have appreciated if he had taken two minutes to let us know the results so we could have had more time during the day to prepare for the trial. I am a "communication" type person so the lack of direct communication from Scott and his not explaining the process in detail and waiting till the last minute at the trial proceeding to tell us what could happen left us at a disadvantage. We had given him all the documents he needed to win and he would have won but he said it was better to settle. However, he was also dealing with a very unethical tenant who was lying and his equally unethical and lying attorney. Scott on the other hand is ethical and honest so I would recommend using him. Despite these issues we were satisfied with the end result.

Scott seems to be doing a good job against a very unethical tenant who lies and although he has broken the lease terms fat Tim refuses to move. Makes me not want to rent ever again but I know good people are out there and I just got a rotten apple. Combine this tenant with his lying daughter and I am just hoping that Scott will be able to expose the fact that they are dishonest people and the truth will prevail in court.
Stay tune and I hope to report that Scott won!

I have been a client of Diana's since the 90's. She handled my dissolution with children. It was a horrible time for my family and I. Diana was aggressive and didn't stop until my children were safe. I was awarded sole custody of my four children and this was when it was almost unheard of that the man have sole custody of his children. Unfortunately life happens and 17 years later I needed Diana again. Diana welcomed me like I was family and ensured me that everything would work out and she would protect my best interests. She did just that in my dissolution I was awarded everything I asked for without stepping foot in a court room. I would highly recommend Diana March to handle your case.

Diana was recommended to me by one of her associates. It was an overwhelming time so I took the advice and proceeded, though I wish I had not. My impression is that Diana either expected me to understand the process or she did not listen to what I was saying...or maybe both. She would forget things I had told her and I thought were very important, and then get furious with me for not doing something that I had no idea was expected. Our communication was horrible and though I am sure that was partially my fault, she blamed it 100% on me with rages and insults. She suggested a realtor that did not know my area at all when we in court in front of the judge so I couldn't look into him. I would have liked to have had a better realtor for our house. I did not get a fair division of assets in my opinion, or things that were very important to me like art work I had since I was a child. I would never recommend Diana to someone going though this difficult time.

Diana came to us by recommendation of a past client, which in my opinion is the best kind of reference. When we first came to her office, the environment was warm and inviting. It presented a strong presence of knowledge and understanding. We sat in Diana’s conference room and the case discussion began. She already began making suggestions to my spouse not only in the legal area but immediately became a comfort factor. Diana was kind, and thoughtful, however presented a mantra of strictness when it came to the rules. This appealed to me and we decide to retain her.
From ordinary to extraordinary the case took a left turn, and my spouse calls Diana in a panic late one night. Diana picked up and took the call, even though it was well past midnight. Apparently the defendant in the case had accused her of kidnapping and informed a local law enforcement agency. Without even skipping a beat, the actions to take flowed from Diana along with next steps, and what she was going to do in order to protect my spouse. The rest was solved in the courtroom, in which we won, and recouped some of the unexpected legal costs.
Diana will keep to your best interests while maintain both within the bounds of the law and what is most ethical. Quite often people forget that what is legal may not be ethical and what is ethical may not be legal. Diana demonstrated incredible skill at maintaining the highest level of ethics while staying within the bounds of the law.
Having worked with many lawyers, I would recommend Diana to anyone who needs a strong, strict, ethical, and caring lawyer.

Yvette Ansel is beyond incompetent. Men, go elsewhere. Yvette wrecked my case in favor of the ex-wife. She was either incompetent or colluding with opposing counsel. I wouldn't recommend her to fix a speeding ticket yet any case of importance. I have talked to six other attorneys informing me how ineffective and that she could have easily won but ignored motive and factual evidence.

Just ending a nearly 2 year custody and child support hearing that included one special action appeal. I hired Yvette as an appeals attorney. I knew I needed a female, and I knew I needed someone strong. I watched her youtube litigation at least 5 times before calling her (it is on her website). Although Yvette came late to the game, she was very quick to learn the details of my case. Yvette didn't let me get bullied by my exes attorney the way my 1st attorney would. After A LOT of thought, (it's hard to start over with a new attorney, but can also be detrimental if you don't) I decided to let my 1st attorney go and continue to use Yvette for the Superior court custody case as well. My first attorney rarely answered calls and when he did, we had to talk over a screaming baby/toddler. He would only answer emails after 11 pm (true story) and to be honest, he just wasn't that good.
The reason I am writing this review is bc Yvette ALWAYS made herself available. ALWAYS. I needed assistance twice after hours. Once involved speaking with the police at 10 pm and Yvette responded right away. The other thing I love about Yvette is spending time to "prep" me before court. She would go over her questions and potential questions from the other side.
She also knew when I'd come close to the breaking point and say something as simple as "it's ok. take a rest, call me tomorrow"
You're going to spend a lot of money on an attorney. Make sure to obtain one that is there when you need them...
I would one million percent recommend Yvette as a family or appellate attorney.

Yvett and her firm are amazing! First of all they care about their clients, truly care and it's shows in how they handled my family needs. They are on top of things in every aspect of detail such to extent of pointing out things that the opposing side does incorrectly hence putting us in a better position with the court. She is commanding in court with a respectful demeanor that gets results desired. Strong negotiator, thorough with detail and support backup needed to get the job done. Takes no nonsense from opposing side and holds them accoutable. Definitely want her on your side. Highly Recomend.

THanks so much Courtney. I am a bit nervous appealing this injunction but the justice of the piece was nasty and did not take my statements seriously and she denied me a primary witness who could have rebutted all of her arguments and PROVEN that the plaintiff and his "witness" perjured themselves.. Besides all of this she refused all the evidence I had that the plaintiff is a danger to others and has paranoid schizophrenia hearing voices telling him to kill people. I loved your answer. I just got a letter from the Justice Court Judge telling me that my appeal has been accepted in Superior Court and the denfendant has until 1/23 to respond to my appellant memorandum. I asked for an oral argument...thanks so much

Do your research! I was charged with a DUI in Jan 2011 (even though I was under .08) and retained the services of this law office. I never saw Corso after the initial sales pitch, which was good...he got my $5K out of me. I met Rhude at my 1st court date which he was late to. Then I wasn't able to speak with either of them nor did I see either of them for the rest of my case. I primarily dealt with James who I think is a paralegal, or an intern, I'm not really sure. I heard him tell the secretary to tell me he wasn't there one of the times I called. My attorneys were repeatedly late to my court appearances. I had to constantly call to get status updates on my case through the aggravating process of leaving multiple messages before a call back. They even called me one time to prep me for a court date that had been cancelled. You would think your attorney would be the first to know about those changes. Despite the general lack of professionalism and inability to speak to anyone over the phone I was pleased that they were able to work out the one issue I was concerned with through the plea agreement. I wasn't worried about the felony or jail time but they were able to get my time down significantly and once off probation can petition to have it dropped to a misdemeanor. Then I get a letter Friday about the one area I was concerned about, wouldn't you know that fell through somehow. I would have taken it to trial had I thought this was going to happen. Of course I have left a message but I know how this song and dance goes. I feel like I got hosed. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Maybe I'll feel different if I get a call back and they fix this (without charging me more) but I'm not holding my breath on that. If they do I'll update and leave a better review but we'll see. $5K might not be much money to them but it is to me and I feel like I just gave it to them so I could get what I would have gotten through a public defender anyway.
