The realization that my marriage was over was the beginning of - arguably the most difficult point in my life. However, from the first consultation with Ronald Petroff I felt confident I made the right choice for representation. The goals, costs, and legal process were clearly explained to me in a manner I could understand. My suggestions and claims were quickly verified and every email and call were returned in a timely manner. My perspective was represented and I was never disappointed! I was asked - and listened to - during every step of the process. With the realization that divorce is a troubling time, if you find yourself in need of an attorney, I highly recommend Petroff, Smitherman and Associates for legal representation.

I contacted Elizabeth Mitchell through email in desperation over the summer with a very time sensitive matter. Not only did she respond immediately, I was already talking to her within a few hours of emailing her and she immediately started working on my case. She is extremely knowledgeable and quickly made me feel comfortable and confident about winning my case. In the end, all of my legal problems and issues were dismissed and the case was closed thanks to her. I am so extremely grateful I found Elizabeth and her team at Petroff,Smitherman & Associates. They are truly the best lawyers in Columbus. Thank you so much!!

Late last summer I hired attorney Jefferson Yates for represent me in court for a domestic relations case. I would recommend this man to anyone seeking legal representation. Jefferson presented himself eloquently and professionally in court. He is timely when responding to emails and returning phone calls. When scheduling and conducting phone calls, he was well organized, and we were able to discuss what we needed to and it kept costs low. He communicates effectively by being reasonable and realistic when offering advice. And he was very kind to me during a difficult moment in my life. Jefferson, thank you again!

Jami Oliver is THE BEST. Contact her FIRST. She has helped me more times than I can count, pointed me to her contacts & resources who helped immediately, every time. I am so thankful to know her!

If you are a father in need of legal representation in a custody or divorce case I highly recommend Ron Petroff. Ron and team were extremely competent and professional in working through my matter and have a rare blend of being both vigorous and ethical in their practice. Highly recommend.

I hired them for my car accident I was in last year Tom Somos is fabulous he settled my case within 3 weeks I would definitely use him I originally stated here with Morgan and was very disappointed in the service she gave me and the really messed up part they charged me full price couldn't even give me a little break on the fees after being neglected by Morgan if you want a great attorney definitely use Tom

Jami is absolutely wonderful to work with! She helped my mother in law with her case and everything went perfectly. We highly recommend her!!

If I could give this firm 100 stars I would. They are absolutely incredible people. They are competent and kind. What a combination! We were recommended to this firm by our local family attorney who met Mr Petroff at a training. They mentioned he was a great man. Well we were assigned Elizabeth Mitchell due to the nature of our case. She has a lot of experience with child services cases we were dealing with. I have to say Elizabeth is very communicative and intelligent when it comes to family law. She was in constant communication with my husband and myself. She made sure to keep us updated with every change in the case. Elizabeth is definitely meant for this line of work. If you need a firm who will fight extremely hard for your family this is it right here. I loved working with them. Thanks again! Love the Goldwater's!

If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would! I 100% would recommend this law firm to anyone. Elizabeth did such an amazing job communicating, explaining things I didn’t understand and fighting for my case. Thank you so much for everything you and your team did for me!

I knew I was in good hands with Mr. Petroff from our first discussion. He was knowledgeable, approachable and quick to communicate with me during my entire legal process. I'm very thankful for his commitment to my case.
