Francie Novar handled my divorce in 2014. To this day, I refer to her as my little pit bull…read moreattorney! We had a very complicated case that resulted in a two-day trial for a divorce. (Believe it or not!) She is amazingly thorough and dedicated to getting answers and building the strongest case possible. We also had a VERY difficult and temperamental judge who flipped back and forth on us. But in the end, Ms. Novar was able to convince her of our arguments and was also very creative in her approach. The judgement weighed heavily in our favor, compared to what my spouse was asking for. And by the way, I had tried mediation before contacting Ms. Novar, and was advised to settle out of court, as there are "certain guidelines" the courts would use to establish spousal support. Well, she blew those guidelines out of the water with the case she presented! Just for a frame of reference - it was a 28-yr marriage in which my husband wanted support to the tune of $230,000 plus legal fees. He got $35,000 and no legal fees! I'd recommend Ms Novar 10 times over, not only for her legal expertise, but also because she is simply a great person.

Francie helped me navigate a complex family situation that had many layers of concern. With…read morestrategic thinking, she wrestled with 20 years of history. She worked tirelessly for a sensible, fair and unique solution, that avoided a costly and harmful invasion of privacy in court for a family member with whom I needed to have a legally-binding agreement. I could not be happier with the outcome. If you want an attorney who really listens and cares about family relationships with challenging dynamics, keeps you informed at every turn, and can provide emotional as well as legal support, you cannot do better than Francie! There are truly some remarkable attorneys out there who work from their hearts as well as their minds. Francie is one of them!

I paid David Nacht $5,750 for his 2-weeks representation. I believe that the fees charged are…read moreunconscionable given the lack of performance and material errors he made. He did not know how to forward an email with attachment. I have filed a formal grievance to Michigan State Attorney Grievance Commission against David Nacht for his misconduct, including failure to provide competent representation, lack of diligence, and failure to safeguard client interests during his representation.

ABSOLUTLY DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS LAW FIRM!!!! Fabiola acted very interested and was every…read moreexcited that I was asking for a aggressive lawyer. I emphasized that my hearing was in 2 weeks and she needed to decide if she was going to take me as a client. She waited completely till the day before my hearing and said she would take my case. She then told me a ridiculous amount of money and expected me to come up with the money the day before. Which I could get but not within 12 hours before my hearing. At this point I asked her to file an appearance and get on zoom and ask the judge for more time. She completely threw me under the bus and bailed on me. I told her I could give her $1000 deposit to at least show up for my hearing to ask for more time but said she would not till a contract was signed and I paid the full amount. I told them to go ahead and do up a contract. They totally ghosted me. So, I had to go into my hearing without a lawyer and learn within 20 minutes of my hearing to become a lawyer. I went thru my hearing and had no Idea what to do or say. I pretty much did everything on the fly, made a ton of mistakes (as I'm not lawyer), went up against a prosecutor with years of experience and won. I could not believe it. I probably did better at my hearing then this law firm would have done. With no experience? Then I receive an email stating they were not interested in my case. Well too late....... I handled it. These people have no clue how to email or call people back. I can't believe these people have any work on how idiotic they are. Believe me don't hire them. You will be better off going to your hearings without a lawyer then with this law firm.

A friend of mine, whose children I've helped raise for the past six years, asked if I would be…read morewilling to become guardian for her two young girls. Two years prior, I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Fanning in order to establish Power of Attorney for these children and had had a great experience with her, so I reached out to her again. Unfortunately, the guardianship process did not turn out to be as simple as originally expected. However, every step of the way, Ms. Fanning handled things with grace and confidence, helping me to feel more confident as well. It was clear that she was, first and foremost, dedicated to the protection and well-being of the children, which was what was most important to me. Throughout the process, Ms. Fanning fielded several questions from me as this was all new, and even encouraged me to reach out "just for reassurance" as the process became overwhelming at times. On several occasions, I spoke with Ms. Fanning's office staff and they always handled my questions with professionalism and kindness. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Fanning to anyone looking for a wise, yet caring, attorney.

I went in for a consultation to prepare my will, ladybird deed, power of attorney, etc. I…read morecontacted Ms Fanning because she was recommended to me. When I got to the appointment I was asked to wait for Mr B. When I said I had an appointment for Ms Fanning, I was told that Mr B often takes her appointments. I was never told that Ms Fanning wouldn't take my appointment. The staff was very polite, however, I made the appointment two months out and talked to the staff several times and each time it was said that it was in preparation of my meeting with Ms Fanning. Never was it mentioned that Ms Fanning would not be meeting with me, or even that she worked with another lawyer. I refused the appointment with the other lawyer and walked out for two reasons. The first because I wanted to see the lawyer that was recommended to me. The second, because it was poor communication at best, deceptive at worst. Either way, it was enough to break my trust. No amount of money would make this a good choice. On a less important convenience note, the office has no marking on the outside and it isn't clear if there is a public door. Although, I was called the day before to remind me of the appointment, no help directions were given.
