For those who lean toward the former approach, Adrienne Keith is a fantastic resource, not only as a lawyer but as a calm, steady person. She works in Collaborative Law as well as mediation, and is active not only in volunteering but also in writing an insightful, funny, sensitive blog about divorce and family law-related topics (http://splitsvillenews.com/). While I didn't technically utilize Collaborative Law (she provides legal divorce services other than just that process), Adrienne was so helpful in carefully walking me through each step of the process, always calm, professional yet warm, and perfectly prepared. I truly appreciated her attitude of non-combativeness and of working to find mutual solutions to sticky issues. Should you find yourself or know someone who's in the situation of needing representation through a divorce or family law issue, do yourself a favor and get in touch with her. Plus, on the way out of the courthouse she handed me a really thick envelope....When I got home, I opened it. A lovely bar, of bittersweet chocolate. What more can a girl want when she gets her old name back?

Soloman Law was recommended to me by a friend, and I contracted with them to represent me against the other driver and their insurance company.

I would recommend them to my friends and family.

I cannot recommend him highly enough no matter how big or small the accident or injury and learned to NEVER deal with an insurance company without an attorney like him by my side. Thank you so much, Jason!!

Expensive, Slow, and the Agreement Already Fell Apart…read more I used Truce Law in 2023/24 for my divorce, involving both children and financial assets to divide. I worked directly with Justin. He is convincing, knowledgeable, and genuinely makes you feel like the collaborative approach will protect your kids and your interests. That pitch is what sold me. I wish the execution had matched it. The process involves paying for an entire team Justin recommends: a mediator, a Divorce Financial Analyst, and attorneys for both parties (including Justin himself). At the hourly rates involved, you expect competence. What I got was not meeting the expectation, at least from the Divorce Financial Analyst. The work product was so poor and unclear that I ended up rebuilding the asset division calculations myself from scratch, with full transparency and no ambiguity. That is work the analyst failed to do, repeatedly. Justin also dropped the ball on communication and follow-up. The agreement was not finalized on time. I had to push things forward myself over the Christmas break. His explanation was essentially that he was stretched thin across other cases. We eventually failed to have an agreement signed before the end of the year. The biggest promise of the collaborative approach is that a well-crafted agreement prevents future legal conflict. That promise has not held up. My agreement is ambiguous in key areas, and I am now dealing with exactly the kind of disputes they told me this process would prevent. Any vagueness in the document has become a point of contention. Long process, high cost, mediocre team, and an agreement that is already causing problems. I would not recommend this firm, do your homework.

My experience with this firm was deeply disappointing and harmful, both financially and…read moreemotionally. My spouse and I hired Truce with the clear goal of finding solutions to maintain stability for our daughter by keeping the family home. From the start, we expressed openness to a variety of options -- refinancing, payment plans, creative asset divisions -- but none of these were ever explored. Instead, when my initial retirement offer was declined, the mediator simply asked what I was going to do. When I responded that all I had was the house, her reply was, "Okay, you're selling. What month?" That was the entirety of the guidance. We were promised expertise and fair scenarios for how to keep the home, yet no such solutions were ever provided. During our initial consultation, we were told that the mediator would review our financials and help identify the best financial options available to us. I specifically understood this to mean I would not need to hire an outside financial advisor -- that this expertise was included in what we were paying for. This never happened. That promise turned out to be empty, and the experience felt very much like a bait and switch. The mediation process itself was mishandled. Separate breakout rooms were used unnecessarily, which undermined communication and strained what had been an amicable relationship with my spouse. Instead of fostering cooperation, the process left us feeling railroaded into rushed decisions we didn't want, without the transparency or support that we were promised during the consultation. The billing practices were just as troubling. Before we even met, $1,500 was billed for scheduling correspondence. I was then charged for messages and drafts that were never sent, for Zoom links resent multiple times, and even for the firm's own need to reschedule. Screenshots confirm that I was billed for correspondence that never occurred. More alarming, I was charged for work labeled as "housing options" and "primary residence scenarios" -- the very solutions we hired the firm to provide -- but these drafts were never created or shared. Despite acknowledging these billing errors and promising corrections, the invoices remained inconsistent and nontransparent. Even the basics were sloppy: my name was repeatedly recorded incorrectly in official documents. The firm's own leadership later admitted that we were also overcharged on hourly rates: $575 for legal work instead of the contracted $500, $265 for paralegal time instead of $220, and $175 for legal assistant time instead of $120. They promised to adjust all bills, apply discounts, and review their processes to prevent such mistakes in the future. While this confirmed what I had already raised, it only fixed their accounting errors -- it did nothing to address the fact that the core services promised were never delivered. To make matters worse, after raising all of these concerns in writing, I never once received a direct response from the lead attorney. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the time of this review, I am still waiting for a corrected refund and an accurate invoice. Ultimately, we spent thousands of dollars and walked away with no solutions, more conflict than before, and the need to start over with another mediator at additional cost and delay. This has added a ridiculous amount of stress and wasted time during an already arduous divorce, which is the last thing any family in crisis needs. Families going through divorce are in an incredibly vulnerable position. They deserve compassion, expertise, and transparency. What we experienced instead was pressure, disorganization, unfulfilled promises, unresolved billing problems, and practices that felt exploitative. I regret ever hiring this firm, and I cannot recommend their services to anyone.
