Jo was so great to work with! I really enjoyed getting to work with Jo for my prenup. All of my questions and concerns were answered. My partners found her lawyer was difficult to work with, but Jo helped us coordinate the entire process. My partner wish she had worked with Jo. I would gladly work with Jo again!

Jo was great to work with from start to finish. In the beginning, I had a million questions about divorce and especially collaborative divorce. She answered them all fully and patiently. As we were going through the divorce, she was very knowledgeable about prior judgments that helped bolster my case. She and her team were able to handle the divorce in ways that made me most comfortable. Their professionalism and kindness made what I thought was going to be the worst time of my life and made it into something manageable.

Attorney Jo Posey was recommended to me when my wife decided to file for divorce. I am very glad to have her as my advocate. Attorney Posey thoroughly explained the potential paths my divorce could take, and was realistic of how it would turn out. At the same time she was caring and sensitive to my thoughts and emotions, listening intently to everything I needed to say whether is was grieving the end of my marriage or going through the different specifics of my case. Jo has extensive experience with divorce cases and it shows in how she handled my case. She accurately knew what would be a reasonable and fair settlement, so she was able to direct everything toward that end, saving me a lot of money. She also knew potential pitfalls and ways the other attorney could game the proceedings, and so she proactively made sure to protect me from those tactics. While divorces can be very costly, Jo was extremely efficient with her time -- be it writing documents, making phone calls, or discussing my case with me -- which made sure that my divorce didn't cost any more than it needed to. Invoices were thoroughly itemized so I knew how my money and her time was being spent. I highly recommend hiring Attorney Jo Posey for any legal issues regarding marriage, separation, or divorce.

I was looking for a female attorney that would be my advocate and help me through the difficult process of divorce after a domestic assault incident. Jo spent a lot of time with me during the consultation to learn about my case. She was very patient with me and listened, then provided very good recommendations and options. She was able to work amicably with my husband on a fair and timely divorce. There were complicated issues with retirement benefits and assets. Jo analyzed the documents i provided and was able to create a divorce agreement where both my now X-husband and I felt we were both treated fairly. It is an expensive process to go thru divorce, but I felt like my money was well spent to secure my future. I highly recommend Jo if you are looking for a kind, professional advocate. Also, everything is done electronically and the monthly bills are itemized with a lot of detail. I am 100% pleased with her services. Also, her assistant Cindy is a gem!

My divorce shouldn't have been complicated, but the lack of cooperation from the other side forced us to trial. Joanna was well prepared and knew the many details of our marriage, as well as the events leading up to trial. Joanna's knowledge of the law, experience and legal advice made a difficult time much easier to navigate. She communicated in a timely and efficient manner, and her straight forward and honest approach helped keep my expectations realistic throughout the divorce. Divorce is extremely stressful and emotions run high especially when dealing with custody and parenting time. Joanna was compassionate and caring. I would strongly recommend Joanna to anyone needing a divorce lawyer.

Joanna represented me in a complicated divorce case. As my lawyer she was very professional, diligent, and supportive throughout. She is knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to Oregon law and divorce. I would recommend her to anyone I know going through a divorce or separation. Especially if it's a difficult situation.

Jo and her team were amazing to work with. From consultation through the end of my case, Jo's level of communication was top notch. I never felt talked down to, or felt left as though I were trying to interpret "lawyer speak". She, and her team truly listened to me, and assisted me in the navigation of the ugliness of divorce. Jo's ability to mix compassion, with her tremendous ability, left me grateful for finding her. I would recommend Jo and her team 1000 times over.

Joanna was patient with me. That was important. She was frank with me as well. I had hopes for an unrealistic outcome, and she was kind about it. It cost more than I had hoped to pay, but in the end, I am divorced and that was what was the most important thing.

Ms. Posey's highly competent representation and attention to detail while handling my case was nothing short of outstanding. Her retainer was reasonable and she was always available for any question or concern I had. Her time was well-documented and all paperwork and consultation was streamlined to ensure her fee did not become inflated during the process. Her ability to negotiate asset division was quite apparent and the divorce was consummated in a very timely manner. I would strongly recommend Ms. Posey to anyone requiring divorce proceeding representation. Her professionalism and timely attention to detail made an unpleasant process much less difficult.

Joann and staff are great. She is efficient and careing. Joann helped me through a horrible time and was always wonderful. I recommend her because she is so professional.

Joanna represented my interests accurately and handled the details of my divorce with professionalism. She provided law-based advice to inform me of best strategy, and worked hard to resolve our issues in a collaborative way with opposing counsel. In the end our case went to trial. To prepare, Joanna researched to find a case similar to ours where the judgment was consistent with what we were seeking, She had a complete understanding of events in our marriage and at trial she represented my experience with expertise. Her court room conduct was appropriately assertive, yet respectful toward all parties involved in the trial. Throughout the stressful divorce process I had chronic feelings of anxiety about my future, frustration with the legal expenses and lack of cooperation from the other side. During the months of proceedings Joanna brought me occasional peaks among the valleys I was living in. She confidently created a strategy each step of the way and brought hope to a situation that was without any. I was satisfied with the outcome and recommend Joanna Posey if you need a divorce lawyer.

Joanna is a very honest and noble attorney who was able to cut to the chase in regards to my case. She represented me at a time when I could no longer receive free assistance through Legal Aid in Hillsboro, Oregon. She helped (represented) me two times in 2011 when I could not afford an attorney and had a hard case where I knew I needed a legal attorney. I fit under the guidlines of getting financial assistance through the Oregon State Bar. Thank you Joanna!! I will definately recommend you to family and friends when they are needing an attorney in the Portland Metro Area!!
