I do not recommend. I spent over $9,000 for absolutely nothing. I separated with my children's mother after 13 years together, 5 of them in which we had a son and a 1 year old daughter at the time of separation. By Joni and the opposing attorney's"recommendation" they postponed our final custody hearing to go to co-parenting counseling which actually did help. But then months turned into a year. A year of continance after continuance. Always excuses. A year of paying retaining fees and filing fees. All for her to just suggest that I SETTLE for seeing my kids 2 days a week and every other weekend. I have all emails saved for reference. She told me to settle for that and to settle on $1100 a month for 2 children that I NEVER in their lives spent a single day away from! As soon as she said that I called Attorney Tom O'Donnell and hired him and fired Joni. He did in 2 months what she couldn't do in 15 months. He charged me a $2000 retainer and I eneded up paying him an extra $300 IN TOTAL!!! I ended up with 50-50 joint custody.i pay $840 a month and I see my babies as much as possible Their mother and I now have zero problems and are both married with new partners. We share the kids 50-50. Almost an exact even split in time and I still pay $840 a month but that's America I guess. It was the worst experience of my life, being treated as a 2nd class parent, being told I should just settle for seeing my kids 2 days a week. I'm glad I didn't take her advice and give up on my children.$9000 down the drain and I never got an itemized list of all these fees. I just paid her like a dummy because I was desperate to get my kids back.

They want to charge for initial consultation?
