The Colwell Law Group, LLC

I am very grateful to Colslaw Law Group and especially to my Family Law attorney, Amanda. From the very beginning, Amanda has been professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. She took the time to listen to my concerns, explain every step clearly, and guide me through a complicated family law process with confidence and compassion. What impressed me most is her responsiveness--she always made sure I understood my options and kept me updated without delay. Her knowledge and dedication gave me peace of mind during a very stressful time, and the outcome she achieved for me was better than I expected. I also want to thank all of the staff at Colslaw Law Group for their support and professionalism throughout the process. I highly recommend Amanda and Colslaw Law Group to anyone looking for a Family Law attorney who truly goes above and beyond for their clients.

I must share the tremendously horrid experience I had with this law firm. I also highly recommend that if you are a male with children that you stay as far away from this law firm as possible because they will not work for you and you will end up losing custody of your children and paying ridiculous amounts of support to end up not getting to even see your children. From beginning to end it was blatantly apparent that they did not have my best interest at heart. Cognizant of this fact toward at the very beginning I asked on two separate occasions to switch my attorney within the firm but that fell on deaf ears, and I ended up with the same attorney that was assigned to me who happened to be located at a practice 34 miles away from my home office. When I was first served with papers there was a clause in the initial filing about temporary maintenance, which I correctly believed meant alimony. It is interesting that this clause was added into the filing considering my ex-wife was not seeking alimony and expressed as much to her attorney. What also made this clause stand out to me was the fact that it looked like someone separately just added it into the paperwork, as it was not tabbed correctly or aligned properly with all the other clauses in the document. When I first met with my appointed attorney, I sought clarification about this and was given an unsatisfactory and unsettling explanation, and it was subsequently brushed under the rug without even being investigated. Off to a great start which quickly made me more uneasy. Clear and concise communication was lacking. I never received the "notice of Entry documentation" after the first court appearance. In fact, I only became aware that such a document existed three months later by my ex-wife due to the stipulation that I was supposed to be paying a reduced amount of child support for three months leading up to a final settlement. Something which would have been critical for an attorney to inform their client about. Similarly, during the discovery demands and financial statement of net worth process there was a significant lag time from when the opposing council sent it to my council and when it was given to me to complete. Two weeks went by before my attorney gave it to me to complete and compile all the financial documentation that was requested of me, and I was given an abridged timeframe to compile and submit everything to them. One stipulation placed on me by the opposing council was that I needed to obtain an evaluation. I performed a significant amount of leg work in obtaining resources to reach out to complete this requirement. I reached out to over two dozen providers all of which told me that they did not perform such an evaluation. So, I reached out to my attorney for assistance and was provided with a list of about 6 or 8 additional providers I had not reached out to yet. When we reached out to all those providers none of them performed the legally requested evaluation. My attorney spent pointless billable hours attempting to assist me when none of the resources that were given to me were any good. Money well spent! During the settlement discussions, it was even more obvious that my best interests were not being taken seriously by my appointed council. We went back and forth several times with no work done on a deviation in the amount of support being pushed for by opposing council. Nobody took into consideration that I pay over $716 a month for full family health insurance which includes an additional $105 just to cover my ex-wife who can be covered by her own employer. I was not being taken seriously at all, the opposing council would just send back a "not agreed" to our settlement offers and my attorney was complacent with their rejection and fine not having to fight for me. The inexperienced and uncompassionate members of this law firm made the whole divorce process an absolute nightmare. I highly recommend staying away from these people at all costs. You would be better off representing yourself with divorce and custody.

I had an excellent experience working with the Colwell Group and my attorney, Kaitlin. From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and I felt fully supported at every step. Kaitlin was knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure all my questions were answered. If I ever need legal assistance in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to work with the Colwell Group again.

I'm thankful that this lawfirm is willing to fight for me. They have found solutions to my problems and I'm very grateful. Matthew has went to bat for me and I appreciate it more than he knows. They aren't even officially my lawyers yet but still want to help and for that I'm grateful just that initiative is more than they know.

This company took $12,500 from me and did nothing for me. The first lawyer they gave me Amanda had no fight in her. She is an office girl good for paperwork but not a lawyer who can fight a case. Then I was given another lawyer because I was so turned off from her performance in court. The second lawyer they gave me allowed my ex to lie under oath was writing me telling me I have court tomorrow and I didn't. If you have this lawyer call court make sure you are on the schedule because they will charge you if you are not and say it's the courts fault for not putting you on the schedule. If you want to get robbed and accomplish nothing then I would recommend this company . Realistically I would recommend a public defender over this company save your $ and aggravation
