It works so well that my ex, and I are somewhat friendly I have been able to move on with my life at the time I thought the world had ended.

I paid her over $4000 she never gave me copies or filed my Docs with the CC Court. I called several times she finally answered & told me she was out the Country at that time, upon her return she stated her Assistant was out which is her Family member. Then I never heard back, so my Estate Attorney tried contacting her she didn't return his calls. Then he wrote her she's never replied. I'm hoping she will return my funds giving the fact I am very disappointed in her services. I will be contacting the BAR. Then my Friend tells me his friend used her for a Divorce, so he spoke with her on the phone & advised him. Then she spoke with his estranged wife & advised her as well. I think that's called conflict of interests. I feel she should not be a Lawyer. Maybe a crook under cover!

I interviewed multiple lawyers and I initially selected Ms. Bartlett in 2021 because I felt she…read moreunderstood me as a woman and a mother. My soon to be ex was a narcissist and I needed someone to be ahead of the game and support me. When we went to court to ask for child support and other filings considered the paperwork was not filed at all and the judge couldn't rule on anything. Ms Bartlett stated it was filed but the judge again said there was nothing. After court was over I received the paperwork to sign it and have it filed properly and the date was stated for that day. I was not happy as I was not receiving any money at all and was trying to get on my feet. I switched lawyers and I believe she knew I needed someone who was more experienced with a high conflict case but when I went back to court with my new lawyers to ask for back child support they denied me months of support because it was my fault that the first lawyer dropped the ball. I was upset but my new lawyers were uplifting and encouraged me this was her mistake and request my retainer back. I did not seek it as I am finally done with the divorce but I wished I had asked more question throughout the process as ultimately this was my life and money that was on the line.

Getting a divorce sucks a lot (to put it mildly), but having wonderful, supportive people in your corner helps a lot. Yelda handled my divorce for me, and she's EXCELLENT.

Michelle has guided me through an extremely complex custody case and made progress at every step…read more She has an amazing memory, recalling details from months earlier and using them when they mattered most. She's also excellent on the spot, quick to adapt and make strong decisions in court. She is the most empathetic lawyer I've ever met - and is so safe to reveal anything to. Another outstanding trait is her integrity -- when she had a medical procedure, she made sure my child was protected by referring me to the best lawyer to stand in for her. Michelle is both ethical and effective, and she turned my case around 100%.

I…read morehad been trying mediation for several years with little progress, and I felt frustrated and was ready to give up on mediation Brook helped me gain clarity about what was important to me and helped lay out a road map for how to move forward and try to finish through mediation. She helped me understand the law and see areas I should offer more leeway while at the same time encouraging me to take a stronger stance about issues that really mattered. She also gave incredibly valuable guidance on legal issues that had been overlooked in mediation; such insights lead to substantial changes to the final agreement in my favor. She and her team are incredibly efficient and also provided a lot of follow-up and warm support. I know Brook would have been a great lawyer in court, but with her guideance I was able to save additional time and money and complete mediation after a few sessions. With Brook's advice I participated in mediation with greater confidence and the final agreement was much fairer. Now that the divorce is behind us, my relationship with my ex is improving and coparenting is much smoother. I would highly recommend Meakin's Law!

He passed away the next day. We had no idea what the ex-wife had done while we were out of the hospital room. It was not until we got a Fed Ex from the ex-wife's attorney a week and a half later that we found out she stole the whole estate from underneath us. Our family consulted with Adriana and she immediately knew that we had been victimized and she took on the daunting task of proving to the courts that the this death bed will was NOT our fathers final wishes for his children. She was energized and had spark which is very rare to see in an attorney - especially when her job is overturning a signed will. It is most definitely an uphill battle and she took it head on. As with any very difficult litigation, it took a while to get to where we ended up...but it is results in the end that matter and she pulled us through all the way. She succeeded in getting us to a successful mediation - so successful that the judge who oversaw the mediation told us had he been hearing the case in court he would have decided the case in our favor on the elevator ride up to the courtroom! After that day administrative rights were stripped away from the ex-wife and awarded to my sister so she could properly distribute the estate - the way it was intended to be. It was a very complicated case, and it did take a while to resolve - but in the end our family ended up with a successful probate and Adriana stuck by us the whole way and saw it through until the last "i" was dotted and the last "t" was crossed!!!! AMAZING! Without her, our life's would have been way different...and not in a good way. Our father worked hard to leave his legacy behind to his children....and that was achieved. Thank you Adriana for all your hard work!

She is smart and has good judgment (something that is rare in a lawyer). She gave me great advice in a divorce with significant sums at stake as well as custody issues. She knew the law and made recommendations which saved me tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars down the line. She is also good at avoiding unnecessary litigation which is a common problem in divorce. I also think that she is patient and kind and able to deal effectively with the strong emotions which come with a divorce. I came out of this viewing her as a friend who helped me but also ably represented me to get the best deal possible. I don't think I will ever remarry again, but if I do and get divorced I will be calling Donna.
