Ms. Gleason was referred to me by a friend after we needed to fire our former attorney for treating my sister's case like her parental rights, after becoming disabled, were unimportant and optional. My sister was the primary caregiver of her young child when a medical tragedy struck. To give you a little insight into our last attorney, when I found out my sister's cancer had returned and was devastated and in tears on the phone with our former attorney regarding only that news for 15 minutes, she charged us her hourly rate for the call. It's not about the money, it's the lack of compassion. If it were only that fact and she was an effective attorney otherwise, I would have stayed with her anyway. That however was not the case. In contrast, Ms. Gleason's heart is not only in the right place (she cares for her clients as people and is a very compassionate person), she also knew the law much better than our last allegedly well rated attorney. Ms. Gleason was able to point by point explain the blatant mistakes/oversights that were made in the past that led to us having a negative judgement - which was based only on the opposing sides filings that were never responded to by our council. I am a professor; the former attorney was like the student that showed up to class without doing their homework, only in this case we would have to suffer all of the consequences. Ms. Gleason is the opposite. She has always made herself available to speak with us about our concerns, always explained the applicable laws at hand and has prepared herself in the events we have endured. To have such a smart and deeply caring attorney is a rarity. She is untraditional in the most meaningful ways that assists her clients in as positive an outcome as possible. She prioritizes her clients needs and goes above and beyond to get the job done. She has taken calls from us outside of business hours when necessary. She is always offering to help us think through the best ways to proceed. She is strong, smart and pragmatic. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
