I needed someone that I could relate to, someone that would…read moreunderstand and not make me feel intimidated, someone that I had a deep feeling of being able to trust them. After all, lawyers are known for etc etc, but I was so very satisfied and felt actually honored that they would take my case and I could be so confident that what they said or suggested or did was the right thing to do or not do. That was many years ago, and all thro the years they have kept in touch in various ways as well as holiday greetings. One time I needed a bit of advice, and they kindly gave it to me at no charge as it was pertaining to my previous concerns. Way beyond their 'polite duty', way beyond professional lawyers. A real friend in need, and I highly safely recommend them.

He returned my call promptly, provided a free initial consultation, listened attentively to the details of my case, explained everything thoroughly and was very personable in the process.

Hire someone who will be on your side and will represent your interests through excellent communication. Again, I highly recommend Jerry if you are an injured worker!

Nobody was asking to look into a live file. I was trying to pay off what was left on a closed one, and I asked what the number was made of before I paid it. A written release was offered. The answer stayed the same -- a phone call first. I asked three times which rule required the call and never got an answer to that question. No records were provided. The letter we received said one amount. The claim filed shortly afterward said another. Neither came with an itemization, and there still isn't one. That's the entire thing I was asking for, and it's the one thing that never arrived.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ms. Markiewicz!!!…read more This is a late review and I completely dropped the ball on posting this. Ms. Markiewicz was extremely helpful when I got married in 2017 by preparing and negotiating a prenuptial agreement for me. She was extremely fair and knowledgeable, because I had no clue how to navigate some of the challenges of negotiating a prenup and feeling extremely overwhelmed. Ms. Markiewicz was very understanding, professional, and respectful when things got heated between my fiance and I and she took my fiance's calls and responded to his emails. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a prenup or any other representation. Ms. Markiewicz was patient and worked with me while I was going through an extremely stressful time and she literally held my hand all the way to the end. Thank you!!!

IF I COULD AWARD NEGATIVE STARS, I WOULD!!!…read more My fiance' and I recently engaged Ms. Markiewicz to help prepare a prenup agreement and had an absolutely horrific experience. It appeared that Ms. Markiewicz approached our prenup as a hostile divorce (rather than a loving marriage) pitting my future bride and I against each other, employing emotionally charged adversarial negotiation tactics and dragging out an expensive lawyer intensive process to...literally...the day before our wedding. She dismissed the process I had proposed where my fiance' and I would work together (doing much of the work ourselves) to craft a fair and equitable agreement through an amicable collaborative process with guidance and feedback from our respective counsel. She also ignored my request to provide an overview of the process, key milestones and timeline that she would suggest as an alternative. Instead, she just moved forward in a manner that lead to a drawn out, time consuming, resource intensive (read "lots of billable hours") process that dramatically increased our legal fees; created intense stress, conflict and emotional trauma; and dragged the "negotiation" process out to...literally...the day before our wedding. And to top things off, she billed us double the hours that our other lawyer did...even though he crafted and authored the multiple drafts of the proposed prenup and the key legal documents. This nightmare of a process resulted in prenup that neither one of us felt good about, legal fees that were 3-4 times what we had expected, a prenup that got signed the AFTERNOON before our wedding and an excruciatingly stressful...downright traumatic...process that led to my fiance' and I "breaking up" twice in the two weeks prior to our wedding (including 4 days before). I can not possibly overstate how brutal the process was or how much disdain I hold Ms. Markiewicz in. In my humble opinion, if you want to hire a pitbull to inflict as much damage as possible in a very nasty divorce, Ms. Markiewicz may be a suitable candidate. But if your objective is to collaborate with people you care about to achieve a a fair and equitable outcome that all parties can feel good about through a professionally managed expedient process at a reasonable cost (both financially and emotionally), I would recommend running in the opposite direction as fast as humanly possible. P.S. This review features no embellishment or exaggeration (and I have the email audit trail to back up every word). I had never met...or even heard of...Ms. Markiewicz prior to this prenup process, do not work in the legal profession nor have any other potential conflicts of interests. I invested the time to write this review solely in the interest of helping others avoid repeating what was one of the most traumatic professional experiences of my life. One that came very close to aborting my wedding and costing me the woman that I love, adore and cherish with all my heart.

I contacted Barbara on March 17, 2026, because she advertises a specialization in animal law, and I…read morehad a paid consultation with her on March 19. Unfortunately, my experience was very negative. I expected to begin by providing a summary of my case, but I was repeatedly interrupted and the consultation quickly became more of a cross-examination than an opportunity to explain what had happened. I left feeling unheard and uncomfortable. The meeting was also affected by internet connectivity issues on Barbara's side. Her video and audio would frequently freeze or lag, creating delays in the conversation. During these interruptions, Barbara became visibly agitated and repeatedly raised her voice at me, which made an already difficult consultation feel tense and uncomfortable. During the consultation, I was also informed that Barbara was out of state attending a university course and that any court appearances would need to be handled by a proxy. After the consultation, I attempted to follow up but eventually stopped receiving responses. I ultimately retained different counsel and achieved a positive outcome in my case. This was my personal experience, and I hope it helps others make an informed decision.

During our very first meeting, Attorney Gislason asked me to write down three possible outcomes I…read morewanted for my child custody case. My answers were simple: 1. I want to return to Liberia with my child. 2. I want to return to Liberia with my child. 3. I want to return to Liberia with my child. There was no Plan B. There was no compromise. As simple as those answers look, this was no ordinary custody case. It was a complex INTERNATIONAL FAMILY LAW case. As an international student in the United States, a single mother, and someone fighting one of the most painful and unexpected battles of my life, my only prayer was to graduate and return home with my daughter. Attorney Gislason fought for us with everything she had. She was brilliant, strategic, meticulous, and fierce. My sister and I jokingly called her "Judge Judy." She could scold me one minute and have me laughing the next. She challenged me, kept me grounded, and constantly reminded me to focus on my child and nothing else. This came with interruptions to prevent circumvention because she wanted results. Looking back, I needed exactly that. On one particularly difficult day, when I could barely stop crying, she told me to call my pastor to pray for me because she couldn't bear to hear me lose hope. That moment reminded me that she wasn't just fighting my case, she was also protecting my spirit. She became my attorney, and, in many ways, my anchor. One moment I will never forget was when she was on a work trip in Scotland. Despite being thousands of miles away, she remained fully engaged and made herself available to ensure my daughter's safety on the fateful day. That level of commitment doesn't come from someone simply doing a job. It comes from someone who genuinely cares. Because of her dedication and persistence, the court upheld my child's best interests, and every day I get to spend with her is a gift that Attorney Gislason helped make possible. Surprisingly, our relationship did not end when the case was over. Atty. Gislason celebrated one of the happiest moments of my life by attending my graduate school graduation, bringing thoughtful gifts, and taking my child and me to dinner before we departed the US in celebration of everything we had overcome together. That act of kindness spoke volumes about the kind of person she is. Behind her fierce courtroom presence is a woman with an incredibly generous heart. There are attorneys who know the law, and then there are attorneys who change lives. Attorney Gislason changed mine! If you are looking for someone who is exceptionally skilled, relentless, and invested in her clients, I recommend Attorney Gislason without hesitation. My daughter and I will forever be grateful for everything she did for our family. Attorney Gislason, if you're reading this, thank you. Thank you for believing in us, for fighting for us, and for helping write one of the most beautiful chapters of our story. We will never forget you. Thanks also to Stephanie for her dedication.
