Fulcrum Institute Dispute Resolution Clinic

Fulcrum Institute Dispute Resolution Clinic

They canceled my christmas visit with my kids over $136. In the past I've owed them way more --…read moreseveral hundred -- and visits still happened. So why now? What changed? I told staff I was bringing cash last night. They know I get paid biweekly. Instead of working with me, they pulled the plug. I had just come off a 12‑hour shift, second day without sleep, missed their call, and that was enough for them to take away my time with my children. It feels unfair and inconsistent. Families need stability, not rules that change whenever they feel like it. My kids shouldn't have to pay the price for this kind of decision. This place has shown me enough -- inconsistent rules, unfair cancellations, and decisions that hurt families more than they help. I'm done here.

Absolutely the most depressing place, but that's only because what the people that come into the…read moreclinic are coming in for. Otherwise Mary is a very kind person to walk into and the mediators move along the disputes to where most of the time all the parties involved leave feeling satisfied (not so much happy though). This place is located in a historic building connected with the older part of the Spokesman Review. It used to be called the Empire State Building (like the state). If you've got a small claims dispute or want help in divorce settlements then you better make sure that you're headed to the Fulcrum Institute.

He communicated great with any concerns I had even when I asked things repeatedly because I was…read morestressed in my divorce. He explained to me what we were doing and helped take care of everything. He was a rock star and God forbid I ever get divorced again but I would use him again.

Michael Gainer was my mom's attorney for her dissolution. At the end of it, he asked her for $5000…read morebecause things were not going well with his family. Mr. Gainer said that he will be getting a check from her ex-husband, and will pay her back right away. Being the nice person that she is, she gave him the money because she knew her ex-husband would be giving it to him. As the time went by, she have not heard from him. Her divorce was finalized on August 21, 2015 and now it's 09/20/2016 and still have not received the money from him. On December 10, 2015 she emailed him furious because I knew he forgot about her and he replied that he is going to do it. His wife was in the hospital and he's been sick too but not to worry, he has not forgotten about her. Being the nice person that she is and being incompetent with laws of the United States of America, Mr. Gainer took advantage of her and committed theft on her and her ex-husband. She has the email conversations from her ex-husband's attorney and Mr. Gainer, proving the check was sent to him and was never given to me. Also I have an email from her to Mr. Gainer asking for her money back and him telling her I will have it.

She's absolutely amazing very say it how it is and gets things on track. She's helping me reunite…read morewith my kids after years of being pummeled by my ex in court. It's been 5yrs since we have seen them because of my ex playing dirty games in court and I get so shaky when he's around I lose my voice sometimes especially his wife. Shes absolutely amazing and just omg I can't say enough about how grateful I am. Finally on the path to be able to see them again after all this time. We will for sure be using her again if he starts playing dirty games again so we can protect the kids' and I's relationship. Thank you thank you so much!

Emotionally Damaging Experience - Gina Costello Made a Hard Situation Worse…read more Gina Costello was my ex-husband's attorney during our divorce, and her involvement made an already painful and complicated situation far worse. I filed for divorce to leave a long marriage that should've ended years ago. Instead of helping resolve matters, Gina escalated tensions and acted with shocking unprofessionalism. She was a family friend of my ex-husband's and must've given him a great deal because she didn't do anything but drag the process out until I was out of money. And it felt as though her main priority was making me suffer. She showed up late to mediation and clearly didn't take it seriously. Beyond her inability to submit paperwork when it was due, causing more expenses on my part, she continued to file motions that were redundant and useless. She submitted false and misleading documents, ignored key facts, and refused to acknowledge the reality of what my children and I were facing. Even my ex-husband admitted from the beginning that Gina told him he could look forward to seeing me bankrupt by the end. That's not just unethical--it's cruel. She was frequently rude, used foul language, and failed to follow through on critical parts of the case. Her lack of professionalism actually caused her own client to end up owing me money because of the damage she created. My attorney had to work twice as hard--and charge me more--just to respond to the mess Gina left behind. What should have been a legal process focused on protecting children and ensuring a fair outcome turned into a nightmare because of her actions. If you're considering hiring Gina Costello for family law--especially in a high-conflict situation--I strongly urge you to think twice. She added unnecessary trauma, cost everyone more money, and treated this case with disrespect from beginning to end. My ex-husband/his family and I will never have a civil relationship after the damage she did with his sisters' involvement--financially and emotionally. My kids and I were forced to sell our house (that I could afford and buy him out) and move just for them to prove a point. When I was looking for an attorney, I used reviews written by others to help me. My attorney did what I asked, and I did everything with facts and in the best interest of my 2 children. I can sleep at night, but it is painful to think his family was okay letting an attorney do this to the mother of their niece and nephew. The last court hearing, after representing him for a year--she didn't know how many kids he had, ages or what he did for a living.
