April Wielang is an absolute godsend to Idaho Falls and family law in bonneville county!!! I have…read morenever found an attorney anywhere in our area as willing to fight for someone in need of her services. I am absolutely amazed by the way she runs everything and the work that she has done for me so far. I pray to heaven above that I will be able to afford to keep having her on my side, just so I know for sure someone is fighting for me to keep my daughter. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone!!! Thank you April!!!

If you don't want to lose EVERYTHING, do NOT hire Laurie Gaffney!! She is the most unethical and…read moreincompetent lawyer I have ever heard of!! Laurie cared more about my son's ex-wife than she did about helping my son. She told him not to make his ex mad. She told him he should just give his ex everything she wanted to keep the peace. She refused to keep him informed so we went weeks with no information. Instead of filing the response he approved she waited weeks until it was almost too late to file. She told him not to make his ex mad and he only discovered she hadn't filed the response he approved because after he made his ex mad she compiled a new one giving literally everything to his ex, including their 18 month old son. He told her she was NOT, under any circumstance, to submit that response and she should submit the one he approved, 2 weeks earlier. I guess because the deadline to respond was that day she decided to ignore his instructions and filed it anyway. She said she was going to get him "liberal visitation" but my son went 3 months without seeing his son because she did nothing, even after many, many phone calls asking when he could see his son. She told him he was not to call his ex under any circumstances. Thankfully, he found and hired a MUCH better lawyer who was able to fix some of the damage she caused. She refused to refund what was left of the retainer when we dumped her. She even padded the bill and when we pointed it out she told us to basically take a flying leap...

My ex didn't show up and I won by default however ZERO $ from the $2,500 was offered back to me... Was this an over sight or intentional theft ? did they quietly time the statute of limitation for me to take them to court? If they don't offer to repay 1/2 the fee of their own accord and claim this error then the integrity of this firm is highly suspect & truth will be revealed To be continued...

Never called to have communication sent letters and email to raise the bill. If your looking for an attorney look somewhere else.

As a disabled combat veteran on a fixed income I was pretty disappointed with this offices…read morepractices. I was raised in the foster care system and got adopted by a family that severely abused me having joined the Marines at 18 I was stuck with the name for decades because my clearances passports etc so I'm finally free of government work and wanted to change my name. Johnston was going to charge me a $2,000 retainer to do the name change for me. I happened to have a grand in cash on me so I asked the paralegal if I could pay the grand no and the remainder in 2 weeks when I got paid since i knew the process was going to be lengthy they could atleast start the paperwork or something and then I'd pay the remainder. Just before I went to pay the remainder thousand I called to let them know and that's when they informed me they weren't starting anything until the full $2.000 was paid if I didn't like that I could have a refund. So a couple days later as promised I went to pay the remaining $1,000 but I had a change of heart. I didn't want to work with someone who was too good to start working for $1,000 considering the cost to do the change on my own is around $200 I don't think $1,000 payment is not worthy of the most minimal effort/time. They kept doubling down on they didn't agree to work for less than $2,000 like it just wasn't worth their time. Not a problem. I'll find an attorney who values the customer over the almighty dollar and what they FEEL they're worth. Oh then they tried to charge me $30 for the 1 minute phone call where he told he wasn't lifting a finger until the full $2,000 is paid citing some retainer agreement that I never signed. Real class act this place
