Recently hired Janese for a super simple motion to file (a motion I could have easily filed myself but figured coming from a lawyer, the judge might pay more attention to it). At first, working with Janese was great. She offered a discount to us and I was so grateful. But I have not been happy with her work. She filed a motion and purposely wrote it very vague and stated to me that she "didn't put a lot of details in the motion because I find that the judge doesn't read much and he likes hearing it in court". Well after nearly 2 weeks since the motion was filed, we still didn't have a hearing scheduled. Janese informed me that the judge wouldn't allow his assistant to schedule the hearing until he read the motion. Days later he denied the motion and we never got to present our case in a hearing! Dumbfounded when I found this out on my own by looking up public info on the court website, I emailed Janese asking for any information as to why we wouldn't get a hearing. I've emailed multiple times and text her... no response. She got her money to spend 5 minutes typing up a motion and that was the end of it. Its been going on 6 days since the motion was denied and I haven't heard a word from her. Waste of our money... even without a law degree I could have done what she did.

Janese has been representing me for a little over 2 years now, and she has always kept me well informed on my legal situation. She's given me the best advice and has fought hard for me.

Janese has not only stayed with us though out our entire legal ordeal she has kept us informed and encouraged. She has always made us feel that she was doing everything in her power to represent us properly. Janese saw the light at the end our tunnel before we did. We feel as though she is now a part of our family and if we ever need any legal help she will absolutely be the first and only person we will call!

There's more than words that can express the way I feel about ms. Caruthers. She's an very intellgent,sophisticated, smart,outgoing,very hard worker when it comes to her job, cases and clients.ms. caruthers is very dedicated to her cases, always was in time with any of my cases. Always kept me informed in what was going on with my case whether it was verbally, face to face or mail. If she wasn't able to be available due to other court appearances with other clients, she always had an coulegue their for her. I love this lady like she's my second mother,friend,sister,ect. Thank you ms. Caruthers for everything you have always done not only for me but for the sake of my four children that needed me the most at home. May God continue to bless you n your law firm.

Janese was really helpful in my previous cases she stayed on top on contacting me keeping me informed regarding my situation. She worked out deals for me to be able to obtain a hard ship without getting extra points on my license and revoked for good. She made sure I was not going in the process nervous she just wanted me to relax and understand she is taking care of everything.

Ms. Janese is the "truth." She has a reputation as the best in Charlotte County. I have never seen an attorney who was more responsive nor have I seen one more prepared than her. She wouldn't let me take a plea deal...?? Most lawyers dive on that opportunity to clear the case and to move on, but she advised me against it. Ms. Janese searched the law books and found case law that applied to my case and ended up getting my charges thrown out by the judge. The State Attorney didn't even challenge her research or her motions. She always has a smile and her heart is made of pure gold. Ms. Janese Caruthers comes out way above the rest. I recommend her to anyone whether it's a DUI, drug case, sex charge, or burglary. From one end to the next she's got your best interest no matter what the rap says. My case was dismissed on January 12, 2012 and I'm still up to date on the decisions regarding the "drug law challenge." Ms. Janese takes the extra steps, and that's why she is....That Girl!! True Story.

She was my public defender, she didn't provide my discovery, or pay attention to my case at all which resulted me in getting prison time. Right before I was about to go to trial (due to her neglect), she quit the public defenders office, leaving me completely screwed. She kept saying they were going to put me in rehab, but then never followed through with actually trying to help me.
