Government vs Jocelyn Stewart When you are going against the government, you will need someone on your side that will fight on your behalf every step of the way. I have 19 years in the military, and I found myself in trouble which is all my fault. The government wanted to take all my retirement and VA benefits away by giving me an Other Than Honorable Discharge. I did not know who to ask for help other than my military-appointed attorney. As you know already may know, military lawyers only have so much experience as a military law officer and they are very busy. Therefore, I was not going to take the chance to possibly lose all the hard work I have done to make it this far in my career. If you need someone with years and years of experience that has seen it all and is still practicing military law, HIRE MS. JOCELYN STEWARD NOW! She knows the regulations and guidelines that can help you get the best results possible. Right now, everybody has turned their back on you because you messed up, she will be there to give you the assistance you need. She also has very high integrity and when or if she takes your case, you will know she will do everything in her power to win. Lastly, she will take most of the burden away from you the moment you decide to hire her. She will relentlessly contact every possible person that may write you a character statement and do the hard work of editing to make your packet as strong as possible. Her due diligence helped me get my benefits back. Now, I can finally move forward with my life after this tough lesson I just went through.

David was very professional and addressed all my fears, answered all my questions fully and left nothing for me to guess about. Was very quick in dealing with my case. He turned a very awful situation into an excellent outcome. I do fully recommend David Yando to any one who needs this kind of help.

I was up against multiple specification of a bogus charge that had the potential to follow me the rest of my life. I called UCMJDefender and Joselyn immediately brought Sean Mangan in on the consultation call to begin working through my case. Throughout the process Sean was checking in to ensure that I was doing alright and to update me on my case. His firm brought in excellent consultants and experts to testify on my behalf. Throughout the trial he and my team overwealmingly showed that the government's' case was weak and I was found Not Guilty; additionally he inserted case law that would trigger an appellate review and trial, he plays chess where the government prosecutors are playing checkers.

Amazing and trust worthy lawyer. I really appreciate Ms. Van Ackeren's time and thoughtfulness.

Dropped me like a wounded animal after collecting full payment and giving 25% back

Mr Kolke took my money then didn’t call or file the correct documents. He was late 4 hours to Trial. My divorce was final & he was notified on September 16, 2020 . I found out I was divorce by checking online September 21, 2020. He has refuses to tell me legally what is in the final order .My x husband has been harassing the day after the trial 07.13.2020 & I ask for him to file a no contact order . The courts will not allow me to do it because he is the lawyer on file . My x husband call the mortgage company & change the terms of the loan which they can report the loan is in rears because he took convert 19 variance loan on it , on September 22, 2020 & the decree was final September 16, 2020 & i the was awarded the home , but he has not followed through by filing a quick claim deed . I have called his office , which by the way is not his office . He only meets people there to put a fake Appearance. He also Represented other family members and did not tell me till the day before of trial , which my x husband use them against me . My x is refusing to pay the credit card debts that was occurred in our 28 years of marriage , and somehow got the Judge to award my x husband 120.000 lien on the home after stealing all of the 401 k and leaving my son& I to go on food stamps .Mr . Kolke failed to subpoena my x husband’s W-2s or bank statements for the last three years but did request & took mine and I had no income other than my Social Security of $200 a month & x husband told the judge he didn’t have a computer & have 2 paystub that were lowest ones & said he wasn’t working due to the covert 19 . The trial took three days and the third day my ex-husband told the judge that he was missing the third day of work and this is after he told the judge that he wasn’t working and got away with that. Mr Kolke didn’t object . To this date , Mr. Kolke still refuses to complete the documents from the divorce & I still do not know all the legal ramifications in final decree . I’m told that the judge made award on the home to me that was not legal and I cannot get answers and did send a declaration to the court asking about them but I have not gotten a response yet because Mr Kolke is the lawyer on file ..I can’t even file a no contact order because Mr. Kolke is the lawyer on file. My home will go in default starting next week because I still have no answer . Mr Kolke wasn’t against any smart Lawyer , he went up against my x husband who represent Himself & Judge Chushoff who was bias from the start & did the paper work for my x husband & yet again Mr Kolke didn’t object or file any motions on my behalf or my son. Oh he even got my son child support reduce that dshs had verified his pay . maybe the court should’ve had use dshs doc instead of just taking my x word saying “ I couldn’t get my taxes because I didn’t have a computer. It was my understanding that the court could pull that at anytime. Say a prayer for us because we are going to be on the streets , after & what mr Kolke is still doing .

Desmond Kolke has a heart for justice and taking care of his clients. I first started working with him almost a year ago in what seemed like a simple case. It has not been. And yet, Mr. Kolke has worked tirelessly on this case and the continuing issue. He gives sound legal advice. I've seen him in court and he handles himself professionally without allowing the other side to throw him off. When something appeared to go one way at first but then took a turn, he never missed a beat. He is smart, kind, quick, and observant. I'm blessed to have Desmond Kolke in my corner.

David Yando is the best there is. He is very professional and always has your best interest at heart. I would recommend him to anybody.

Mr. Yando was very professional , understanding , and knowledgeable throughout the process of my Bankruptcy . All my questions were answered and the process was smooth . I would recommend his law office 100%+ to anyone looking to file bankruptcy . Thank you again Mr. Yando for your professional and honest job!

Called there twice looking for legal advice. First tome was over a month ago, and still no return call. Flakes!!

David was incredibly helpful all the way through, any fears and questions I had of the process were addressed, and the whole experience was very positive. I appreciate his professionalism and knowledge. Thank you so much!
