I am happy to leave this review, having just finalized my divorce with the help of this fine firm,…read morespecifically, Attorney Melissa Avery. My case was very hard and had been long and drawn-out, but she was able to bring things to a long-awaited close. She, and her staff, were available for my questions, and to make sure I always knew where I was in the process; as I had been with another attorney prior to her that left me in the dark, this was a gift to me. Any court proceedings or dealings with the judicial system are emotional and confusing for someone like me, and she made the process something I could deal with. We were able to get thru the event without going to court, which saved me money and a lot of heartache, and for that I'm grateful. Mediation was the route we took, but, Melissa was ready to go to court if necessary. I feel she fought on my behalf and ultimately that was what I needed in my lawyer. I felt I had lost in the marriage but I did not walk away feeling like a loser thanks to this firm and the whole staff. Nobody wins in a divorce, in my opinion... But, a good lawyer can help you end things as fairly as possible.

Do not use John Terry if you need to do a small claims lawsuit, especially if you are a tenant…read moresuing a landlord. We were suing for our deposit which was never returned or communicated about, as well as labor for installing a new roof on the residence, and damages from that leaky roof. We moved out of state, that is why we had to find a lawyer to do the lawsuit instead of just handling it ourself. John Terry told us that he believed he could get us the maximum amount allowed as well as having an attorney fees paid. There was ery little communication over the first 6 months, especially since the opposing attorney asked for continuances twice, but over the last two months there was a lot of back and forth between both attorneys. charging us almost $400 each time to negotiate a settlement and send us an email if we want to agree to the settlement. The night before we were supposed to drive the 6 hours to Indiana for the hearing, he told my husband they reached an agreement but Mr. Terry did not give the details or send anything in writing, only telling my husband that it was less than what we had asked for and more than what our landlord's attorney had originally offered. We did not see the final agreement until AFTER the hearing had already been canceled. The final settlement did not include attorney fees at all, and was one third of what we had originally asked for. When my husband called him and said that that is nowhere near what we wanted that we would rather gone to trial, Mr Terry told him that it would cost another $800 up front to start the process ALL OVER AGAIN. So at the end, we ended up paying out more in attorney fees to John Terry then what we took away. do not go to this man for any kind of small claim suits, he pushed the settlement so HE did not have to go to trial and I know that we had the means to beat our landlord at trial.

I contacted Jessica Lacy regarding estate planning. I am rather new to this concept and wanted to…read moreplan ahead. I don't exactly like thinking about this stuff... who does??... but she made the experience, uh, palatable! Her main focus and expertise is family law. The Zoom meeting with the attorney was informative and she answered all my questions. She explained things very simply but in detail. I was expecting to have her complete one document but based on her valid suggestions, I decided on less expensive but more effective documents. I am relieved that I've taken the right step to plan for my future and ensure things are handled easier for my child should something happen. About a week or two after I called, the assistant called me to arrange a time to review with Ms Lacy and sign the papers with a notary. The whole process was great and stress-free. The office staff is super friendly and family oriented. (I had originally done some thing else using free web resources years ag.. but Lacy reviewed my paperwork and explained why that wasn't going to hold up in court in Indiana. Oh well! ) The first appointment was easily scheduled via email. I was happy with her location near me, in Cumberland.

Deeply Disappointing Experience - Proceed with Caution…read more My oldest sister solely and secretively engaged attorney Chris Jeter for estate planning, expecting fairness and professionalism for my parents who didn't even make the request. Instead, the documents he produced placed one sibling (my sister) in sole control of everything (trustee, executor, power of attorney, health care decisions) while sidelining the others. This structure ran completely counter to my parents' clearly stated wishes for equal treatment among their three children. Even more troubling, Jeter continued with a meeting despite my father (who is 90 years old) twice stating he did not want to proceed. That total disregard for my father and mother left us with the impression that one sibling's agenda was prioritized over our parents' actual voice not to mention borderline elder abuse and coercion. My father was angry when forced into a Zoom meeting by Jeter, my sister and her second husband. The documents he created also contained red flags: "Gift equalization" language that could be used to reclassify legitimate loans as gifts. Waivers of bond and reporting, removing normal safeguards and accountability. No checks or balances, essentially consolidating all authority into one person's hands. Estate planning should protect families and reflect the true intent of the clients. In our case, these drafts would have increased conflict and stripped away fairness. I was so concerned by his conduct that I filed a complaint with the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission. I cannot recommend this attorney and urge others seeking balanced estate planning to look elsewhere.
