If I could give this firm 100 stars I would. They are absolutely incredible people. They are…read morecompetent and kind. What a combination! We were recommended to this firm by our local family attorney who met Mr Petroff at a training. They mentioned he was a great man. Well we were assigned Elizabeth Mitchell due to the nature of our case. She has a lot of experience with child services cases we were dealing with. I have to say Elizabeth is very communicative and intelligent when it comes to family law. She was in constant communication with my husband and myself. She made sure to keep us updated with every change in the case. Elizabeth is definitely meant for this line of work. If you need a firm who will fight extremely hard for your family this is it right here. I loved working with them. Thanks again!

I would NOT recommend anyone Erika Smitherman from Petroff Law Offices…read more She came unprepared for the hearing and agreed with almost everything the opposite side insisted on for the financial part of the settlement. Didn't have anything prepared for the child custody part. Days before hearing she lied to me about the possible outcomes and her strategy. If you still decide to go with her, prepare the templates you want for settlement yourself, and bring paper and a laptop as Erika most probably won't have it. Also, get ready to send the same documents over and over for discovery, and don't feel surprised if you get documents about opposite-party discovery with a few months' delay..

I've dealt with many types of attorney from good to bad. She is on the level of excellent. I was in a 10 year relationship unmarried and my children mother wanted to and did take my kids out of state without consulting me & without my permission. I was in a very tough situation with short time to respond. She quickly got the courts involved and filed nessary motions, blocking the children's move, including a Guardian Ad Litem to represent our children. We know it can get costly and she worked with me finanally. I was able to get a temp court order to enroll the kids into school and temp custody until things were worked out. She was very responsive and gave me a peace of mind when I was worrysome. I was referred by a friend that she helped get custody who had a crazy story. Ive had many people ask for her contact since and I am blessed to of found her. Save your time looking for a family attorney, she is definitely a go-to. I am very satisfied with my outcome.
