Whitney made a number of suggestions that previous attorneys had not and unlike some attorneys, she didn't remind you that you're the client and she's the attorney.

Highly recommended!

With Heidi's calming demeanor she guided me through a very stressful time and we were successful in getting the divorce finalized. My experience with Heidi and her staff were exemplary in my opinion.

We were referred to FL by Clackamas county Social Services. It was an urgent situation with my…read morehusband's sister. We needed guardianship and conservatorship ASAP. We were quoted 13K, which we agreed upon. That amount was surpassed greatly. It was evident that copy and paste was used for the majority of legal documents. The work was not done by a lawyer, but a legal assistant. There were spelling errors, delays, poor communication and failure to mail documents. On one invoice was a 30 minute charge to mail a letter. Maybe they walked to the mailbox??? The final straw was this letter. There is no more money in the estate. Fitzwater received over $20,000 for the guardianship and simple probate. They were paid from the estate. The conversation with Jonathon today involved him telling my husband that Oregon Law states that legal fees were to be paid before other creditors. My husband was NEVER informed of this law and paid outstanding medical bills with the little amount that was left in the estate. Jonathon also stated that "he talked with the partners about waiving the unpaid invoice and they declined". Unreal, the firm got over 20K for the "work" in the case. Do not hire them unless you have unlimited funds.

I have trained attorneys, law enforcement, investigators, survivors, family members at the national as well as state and local levels. I know elder and abuse law: including financial exploitation and the ethics of best practice. After observing, and being impacted negatively, by Ms Yazzolino's year's long handling of my family's trust case, which was shocking on so many levels and required a court order to resolve, I will simply state that I would never recommend her to anyone, ever. Ever.

This was a highly contested and emotionally exhausting court case that took several years to resolve. Ms. McCarthy's adult children were the opposing party, and they were represented by their own attorney. Ms. Yazzolino was professional, thorough and diligent in representing me through this proceeding. My experience with her was nothing short of outstanding. Ms. Yazzolino went above and beyond, made the process more bearable, and I am proud to say that I prevailed. For what it is worth, this case closed a few years ago. Ms. McCarthy was not a party and had no legal interest in the outcome. For anyone interested in reading the facts of this case for themselves, it can be found at Multnomah County Case No. 19PB05462. I would highly recommend her services. She is compassionate, fair and ethical .

My gratitude is endless and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for competent advocate willing to fight hard with grace and dignity.
