Working with Attorney Charles Radeline has been an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the first consultation, it was clear that he is deeply knowledgeable in family and divorce law, bringing both confidence and clarity to an emotionally complex process. Every step was explained in a way that felt grounded and professional, making it easy to understand my options and make informed decisions.
What stood out most was his transparency and communication. I was consistently updated on the status of my case, timelines, and what to expect next. There were no surprises, no hidden fees, and no rushed conversations--just honest guidance delivered with patience and respect. I always felt like my best interests were prioritized.
Above all, his integrity set him apart. He approached my case with fairness, compassion, and a genuine commitment to doing what was right. In a time that could have felt overwhelming, he provided steady support and unwavering ethical representation. I am grateful for his service and would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone in need of a trustworthy divorce attorney.

I hired Mr. Radeline for my divorce and couldn't be happier. He took his time to explain the entire legal process, was able to answer any questions I had, and worked diligently to make sure I would receive rightful compensation. We ended up being able to settle before going to court and I was able to get a fair deal and was satisfied with the result. Just in the last few days, months after the case was settled, I had an issue where the quit claim deed that was signed by my ex-wife was not considered acceptable by the title company. The title company had no luck reaching her attorney. I called and spoke with Mr. Radeline and he was willing to assist, was able to reach her lawyer, and worked on getting the quit claim deed corrected. This meant it was sent to the title company in time to close as scheduled. I would recommend anyone going through a divorce, knowing how long and arduous the process can be, to hire Mr. Radeline.

This firm is one of the worst decisions I've made in the past four years of my ongoing dissolution of marriage.
I hired this attorney in 2024 for a very serious, high-stakes family law case. Before I retained him, I saw several negative reviews but chose to overlook them and give him a chance. In hindsight, I deeply regret that. In my opinion, those bad reviews turned out to be accurate and matched my experience almost exactly.
During my time as a client, I often felt ignored and left in the dark on critical issues. Communication was frequently slow, inconsistent, or simply absent when important deadlines, hearings, and enforcement matters were pending. There were stretches where I sent multiple detailed emails in a row--sometimes 10-15 messages over a short period--trying to explain urgent issues and get clear direction. Many of those emails never even received a short "received, I'll review this" acknowledgment. From my side, it felt like my concerns were just being stacked up and not meaningfully addressed while my case time kept ticking.
In my experience, this is essentially a one-lawyer operation. I never dealt with a dedicated paralegal or support staff on my case; everything seemed to bottleneck through him alone. For me, that meant very limited availability, very slow responses, and yet very high fees. In my opinion, you end up paying a lot for very little support or responsiveness compared to what you would expect from a properly staffed family law practice.
Substantively, I feel that my case never truly moved forward under this representation. Key issues sat for long periods without being pushed toward resolution, and a crucial hearing was canceled and never promptly reset. By the time he moved to withdraw, my impression was that the case was in essentially the same place procedurally as when I first hired him--except that I had paid many thousands of dollars more and was now being handed off to start over on my own or with new counsel. To make matters worse from my perspective, the billing continued through the withdrawal process itself, which made it feel like I was paying more money just to be left without representation.
I also have serious concerns about the fees and billing overall. After paying many thousands of dollars, I was left with unresolved issues and then faced with a charging lien when the relationship broke down. I strongly disagree with how the fees, the work performed, and the results line up. I am not going to argue every detail of that dispute here, but I am addressing those concerns through formal channels outside of this review.
In my opinion, zero is the appropriate amount of stars!
Update [Dec 2025]: After I posted this detailed 1-star review, a brand-new 5-star review with almost no real detail suddenly appeared. Over the next few days, several more 5-star reviews popped up in a tight cluster. I also noticed the same pattern with the other 1-star review on this profile - it was quickly followed by multiple glowing 5-star reviews. I can't say for certain who is writing those, but in my opinion the timing and the lack of detail make it look like an attempt to pad the rating rather than honestly respond to the concerns in the detailed negative reviews. Anyone reading this can scroll through the dates and decide for themselves, but I would encourage people to focus on the specific, fact-based reviews that explain what actually happened, not just the overall star number.

Mrs. Radeline is an amazing human. He is very compassionate and truly goes over and beyond for his clients. He listened to me and walked me through a very painful time of my life (divorce and child custody). He is very prompt in responding to any type of communication. He provides a lot of important and useful information. What I appreciate about him, above other things, he is very honest, no sugar coating. I am so glad I chose him to represent me. I highly recommend him!
