Jon is an outstanding lawyer. Mentioning all of his attributes would turn this review into a book! Most of all, Jon cared about my case; showing his dedication by exceeding all of my expectations and goals. He always kept me informed by phone or email and quickly replied to mine. Jon always respected my input and took it seriously. After winning the case, he continued working through the nitty gritty to hold the other party accountable to the terms of the ruling. Without that, it would have been a hollow win. I am forever grateful to Jon, his experience, expertise and commitment.

We worked with Jon Schulte on several pro bono cases regarding debt consolidation. Jon has helped us out immensely to get most of the cases resolved. You see, we lost 2 daughters in 2020, ages 27 and 30; in addition to my loss of my father. One daughter left behind 4 children, ages 10, 8, 7, and now 2. With such a large tragedy, and now having a heavier financial burden with raising our grand children, Jon has delivered timely and outstanding services. He has helped us with getting our debt negotiated, settled and satisfied quickly. He did this all with his clients best interest involved. He even rendered services to fix what other attorneys did not complete or dropped the ball. We couldn't recommend a better lawyer than Jon Schulte at this law firm. Sharlene

WOW!!! Where do I begin. When you are going through this process and "have to talk to a lawyer" it sometimes comes with a bit of a stigma. Not only have my husband and I been treated with the utmost respect, I genuinely feel as though I am talking to a friend or family member each and every time we speak. Not just Jon but everyone we have come in contact with. It almost makes me emotional because dealing with this kind of stuff sometimes feels a bit demeaning but not with them. We will greatly miss the conversations once the process is over. I would recommend Jon to ABSOLUTELY anyone. Red carpet service every time.

Hired Attorney Rachele Cummins

Working with Rachele has been wonderful. She is very knowledgeable and explains everything well. I was confused by things other people had told me Regarding property laws and state regulations. She helped my family understand how the state handles the transition of property ownership when there is no will. She has been very patient in assisting us.

I enjoyed my experience with Ms Cummins. I felt heard, understood, and knew the plan from the beginning. It was nice to have feedback when needed and I felt like I got more than I expected in my divorce. She was professional, timely and concise in our interactions. 10/10. Would recommend her to everyone i know.
