Kaitlyn Foley has been a Godsend.She is quick,able to think on her tippy toes,and makes my last lawyer look like a shady vacuum cleaner salesman.She really knows her stuff and corrects my bad ideas that I think are good, into stellar ones.I can't say enough how lucky we are to have her driving,she's done more in 2 months than my past lawyer in 3 yrs.Her attention to detail and her way around my case which was new to her are above and beyond,a real mover and a shaker! Absolutely recommended.Also Lisa Guzzie who was the liaison to the team when we first came to Caldwell was not only a pro but actually made us feel like she cared,and I believe she really did.Custody is a tough battle I'm glad to have Caldwell as our team.

Jonathan was the best decision I ever made in my life he told me the truth up front . Told me he would fight like hell for me . . And he did honestly saved my job , house , family !! He honestly is the goat if you get charged with a DWI !! He also cares for your well being he recommended help if he thinks you need it but doesn’t force it on you .. he’s a great lawyer and a better person !! Thank you Jonathan i owe you more then you could ever imagine!!

Jonathan is without a doubt one of the best dwi defense lawyers in this state and beyond! Jonathan was there for everything and made me feel very secure in a insecure time. Never did I feel ashamed, nor did I feel embarrassed when talking to Mr. Cohn about my dwi charges. Just a great guy to have on your side, THE BEST! I cannot thank Jonathan and his team enough!

Would highly not recommend. Unless you want to spend 30k on losing your child when it should have been an easy win. I gave them 300 pages of proof and they still lost my child. Due to them being afraid of the other attorney. Lied to me told me I still had custodial custody when I didn't . Wouldn't answer my emails when I asked them about it. It looks like the lawyer could have even got paid off by lying to me and trying to get me to agree to things I shouldn't have. They didn't fight for me at all. Just handed over my 2 year old to my ex husband. Thanks to this law firm I'm still in court over a year and now have lost 40k and still haven't gone to trial. 30k just from emails and putting a child in danger. Their unethical and don't care about you. Money hungry.

AVOID this law group. All they want is money. Almost all of our retainer was used on short emails and 2 virtual court visits where our attorney wouldn’t even ask or say what we wanted. She kept advising us to play along with the mother as if the father doesn’t have any rights. My son could’ve gotten the same visits using a public defender.

Edited: This is a detailed review and I hope it helps others. Cons: I did notice the reviews and decided to take the chance anyway. At first, my experience was great. Consultation had me hopeful. However, consultation is not with an attorney. You cannot speak with an attorney until you pay the $6000 retainer fee and sign the Letter of Engagement. Then, you will be assigned an attorney. That is the first red flag. My attorney is James Lesperance. He is well versed and knowledgeable at what he does. He kept in contact with me quite often in the beginning and communicated well on what to expect in the coming court cases. 100% of the time he was right about what happened. I felt very comfortable with him. There was a lack in communication in later weeks, but having added a 2-star review, that has since changed. Sometimes you just have a to light a fire to get them moving. James is working diligently on everything for me. I will say that invoices come in frequently compared to what work is done on your case and that this firm is very costly. Pros: Friendly staff during consultation and most calls to the office. Had a question about my bill which they refunded some of it. Asked to amend the Engagement Letter, which they allowed. Attorney is knowledgeable and experienced. Firm contacted me to assure me that good communication will resume and it has. My next and hopefully last court date is June 1st. I'm hoping I can increase this review to 4 stars after that. At this time, James, I would give 3/5 stars. The firm itself gets a 3/5. Update 10/16 I was assigned a new attorney after James Lesperance left (Heather Harp). Well, Heather has also left the firm. Now I am on my third attorney 8 months in with no resolution to my case and THOUSANDS of dollars spent. I have not yet been reached out by the new attorney. I am so frustrated with this firm.

Very knowledgeable and helpful firm so far. Only have had the first consultation but they give you sence they care about you and your legal issues.

I just had my consultation with Lindsay Phillips, was a great experience and when I went in I felt like I knew nothing, leaving that conversation and understanding the options I have is a great feeling. She was very knowledgeable and I am confident knowing what the next steps are for me. Highly recommended!

I contacted the Colwell law group when I needed an attorney. Amanda Iannone-Hens was assigned to represent me and did an excellent job. She made me feel comfortable and answered my questions in a very timely fashion. Should the need arise, I will absolutely retain her services again. I highly recommend this law firm!

My name is Peter, and when i retained Mr. Cohn we both understood that there was no guarantee my case was going to have a positive outcome, but my confidence was high. Jonathan never once let me down, and always kept me informed about this case, even on weekends or evenings he would take the time to make that all important call and keep me updated on my case. He is professional, compassionate, and dedicated to his clients. I would refer his services to anyone who thinks their situation is hopeless, he will make you a believer. For lack of a better term, Mr. Jonathan Cohn is a Rock Star in his field!! Make no mistake this man will get the job done.
