Divorce and custody issues are never easy, but the staff at Colwell are amazing and made me feel comfortable and put my mind at ease. My initial contact was with Lauren. She was professional and made me feel like family. I would recommend Cowell Law Group to anyone beginning the Family Court process.Report

i’d be giving negative stars if i could. this law firm is the absolute worst and put me in an awful situation. what a HUGE mistake. once retained, they switched me to a “senior attorney” who obviously can bill at a higher rate. they were paid $35,000 in a month and a half, and accrued an additional $20,000 for that time. when i couldn’t come up with more they just stopped doing anything, and completely abandoned me at the start of my divorce trial. i was able to scrape by and pay them, but even that didn’t finish the trial. i was forced into a settlement agreement with my attorney stressing how much more two more days of trial would cost. two weeks after, i discover that i agreed to things that did not exist, and this law firm did nothing except ask for more money. they do not care about their clients. when you have a balance, they won’t allow you to speak to your attorney only billing and the “managing attorney”. they do this very strategically, when you are desperately needing information. so if you needed questions answered about your case before you sink in another $20,000, you’re out of luck. they expect you to come up with thousands in short notice in order for them to continue to help you. they wait until you’re at a crucial point in your litigation and all of the sudden you find your retainer used up and a demand for another $20,000 for them to continue with the case. i would run far far away from this law firm unless you want them to handle your bankruptcy, lose your kids, and own your house too.Report
Horrible firm. Was good during consultation then flipped once the got my retainer fee. Made my situation worse. Wasn't knowledgeable on my case. Charges extremely high fees just to call and ask a question. Your better off representing yourself save yourself thousands.Report
