She was maybe the rudest human I've encountered in a very long time and I was genuinely taken a back.

A divorce is stressful enough without adding people like this to your life, no thank you.

I was stressed, paranoid and wanted to ensure my family was taken care of should anything happen to me. Through ARAG, I found Heather Mayer and she helped me with getting my child's name change and helped me established a living trust as well. Heather was patient and informative as I was new to both of these processes. She answered all my questions, and always made the entire process stress free. Even weeks after the court paperwork were done for the name change, she offered to notarize the county paperwork for free! Finding the right lawyer is an intimidating process, but Heather treats you like a friend and never makes you feel like just another number. She is kind, personable and responsive. I highly recommend Heather and will definitely refer her all my family, friends and even strangers because she is that good!

The Best Family Law Attorney You Could Ask For…read more Juliana is truly an extraordinary attorney and person. From the very beginning, she believed in me and treated me with respect and compassion during one of the most stressful and emotional times of my life. She is thoughtful, thorough, and incredibly well-spoken. Unlike many attorneys in family law, who can sometimes become hardened or impatient with the tears, fears, and high emotions, Juliana shows remarkable patience and understanding. She never makes me feel rushed, and she takes the time to truly hear me out and understand my concerns. What stands out most about Juliana is her ability to handle even the most difficult personalities with grace. My ex has always been challenging to deal with, but Juliana knew exactly how to approach the situation and was able to negotiate firmly yet fairly. She secured exactly the outcome I had been hoping for--something I never thought would be possible. The difference this has made in my life cannot be overstated. Because she is on retainer, my ex finally has boundaries he must respect. That shift alone has greatly improved my quality of life. For the first time in a very long time, I feel like I can breathe. I have the time, space, and emotional security to focus on what matters most: building the relationship I am meant to have with my child. With Juliana's help, we are finally beginning the healing process that I thought might never come. Juliana is not only a skilled attorney but also a genuinely good person. She brings humanity, empathy, and strength into a process that often feels cold and overwhelming. She has made my life better in countless ways, and I am so grateful to have her by my side. If you are looking for someone who will advocate for you with intelligence, patience, and heart, Juliana is the one. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Most negative reviews come from clients who lost their case. This is not one of those situations…read more After being transferred to Ms. Stowell, I spent approximately 18 months under her representation with little to no substantive progress made on my case. Communication became minimal, I was repeatedly asked to resubmit information that had already been provided, and key issues, especially custody, were never meaningfully advanced. This ultimately resulted in roughly two years of delay in securing an updated custody agreement that proved to be in the best interest of my children and myself. I was also encouraged to consider a settlement that was not in my best interest and would have increased my financial burden. After my case was finalized, I took the time to carefully review my experience. My priority with my new representation was seeing the divorce through to completion, not raising disputes mid-process with this firm & Ms. Stowell. After my case was completely wrapped, I then reached out to Ms. Stowell in good faith to address these concerns and her performance directly and in private. The response from the firm focused only on a 10-day billing dispute window and did not address the substance of the issues raised. The contrast after switching attorneys was immediate. Within weeks, my new counsel moved the case forward and achieved a significantly more favorable outcome. The financial settlement was more than double the prior proposals, and the matter was resolved more efficiently and at nearly half the cost. Most importantly, custody was prioritized and resolved within a few months of the transition. This stood in clear contrast to the repeated delays I had previously been given, where I was consistently told action was only a few months away, yet no progress was made. I would also encourage anyone considering Ms. Stowell to look closely at the substance and timing of her reviews across platforms. In my experience, many are dated, clustered, or very general, and do not reflect the level of detail or outcomes that matter in a case like this. Based on my experience and the clear difference in results after changing counsel,I do not recommend this firm or Ms. Stowell.. Beyond the financial outcome, the delay in addressing custody had a meaningful impact on my family, as it prolonged a situation that could have been resolved much earlier with appropriate action.

They say they prepare for your hearing yet perform poorly during the actual thing. The petitioner attorney wiped the floor with him. We had Dylan Muscgrove. If he actually rehearsed he wouldn't have been stuttering and saying uhms and uhs, appearing unprofessional. Not to mention conversation with attorneys is difficult because they will drone and talk slow to waste time which is charging YOU. He couldn't answer any questions the judge threw at him. And if he had actually reviewed the documents we provided him, then he wouldn't have been more than prepared and been able to answer questions and help defend us. If you need an attorney for child support and custody, go with Kaplan. They outperformed our attorney when we needed him and got results for the baby mama. Attorneys really do just care about lining their pockets as much as they can.
