Joni makes a tremendous effort and goes above and beyond the call of duty. She is incredibly thorough, supportive, and has done a fantastic job for me in my divorce and custody case. I strongly recommend her.

Joni is a fantastic lawyer to work with. She is practical/realistic and good at listening. I like her professional communication style with the court and being able to easily translate the full ramification of decisions to her clients in laymen terms. I checked 4 out of 5 on responsiveness because she is so busy--typical of an excellent lawyer. But, you can count on her!

Joni made herself available not only professionally but had a genuine concern for me as her client.

Not knowing anything of a divorce, she provided knowledge and help at the time of need.

Avoid like the plague First off, she takes FOREVER to respond to calls and emails. if he does at all. Second, we had met and agreed on a course of action and when circumstances changed, he took it upon himself to do something... Without contacting me, without my approval. What reallv bothers me is not the action he took, but the extreme animus he had for his customers He yelled and argued with me about how I was wrong with the actions he took regarding MY business. And when I finally explained my displeasure, he said... "Well..Whatever." ThIs lady IS RECKLESS. UNKEMPT. AND unPROfESSIONAL. hE IS NOT THE PERSON YOl WANT HANDLING YOUR LEGAL MATTERS

She is a dirty skank who happened to be an attorney from the ghetto. She told my ex good job on taking all the community funds and she hooked her up with one of her friends. We were trying to work things out having two very small children involved. Joni has been divorced 3 times that's how she made her money, she was guiding my ex how to be a d***** W****** and play men and take their money. Attorney like her should be banned from practicing law. Dirty little skank I call her, She will try to sell you her book of how she was abused. She most likely deserved it. Stay the F away from this B.

Horrible and full of lies She charges 3 times what she quotes you and only shows up to hearing remotely she's " in trial " when you want to contact her. My suggestion is get a attorney who knows what she's doing.
