Spoke with Charlie today several times and had a great, educational experience. Extremely kind and understanding. Very responsive! No one wants to need an attorney, but I'm putting my trust in Charlie.
I can't say enough about Vanessa Sanders. She is extremely attentive and lightning fast and getting things done. She was always available to me and answered all my questions quickly. I highly recommend this firm, especially Vanessa. You can't go wrong with her!

if i could make a negative stars review, i would. this firm really shined me on and took all my money, with horrible results. I had a decent experience with this firm 5 years ago when I was fighting my ex for custody, but in hindsight my case was very strong- my ex was arrested for DV and child endangerment, so my dog could've probably won my case also. so I hired them again last year to represent me in my support case. What a mistake. I really should have looked at recent reviews, because things have really gone down hill since then. They passed me around to 4 or 5 different attorneys. One after another, none of them seemed to even read the details of my case. They certainly charged me for catching each new attorney up on my case details. They squandered my exorbitant retainer, they charged erroneously for simple tasks like a a half hour for a 1 sentence email reply. They were inputting my evidence to the courts the day of trial. They bled me dry, and I ended up representing myself and paying almost $1400 a month to a woman I have true 50/50 custody of my children with, after becoming unemployed before my court date because my employer went chapter 7. When I spoke with the court clerk in Columbia county family court, she said " oh yeah colwell is bad. That's where lawyers get their start" now they're writing emails CC'ng my father in law, threatening to hold him liable for some $700 charges they racked up after I fired them, because he helped me with the retainer on his card. Ridiculous. save yourself the trouble and go with a different law firm. The reviews speak for themselves. Colwell is a sinking ship, they can't keep good attorneys for long, and they will leave you high and dry.

I had a free consultation today with Jennifer Stevens, and she was amazing. She took the time to explain everything clearly and was very honest about how my situation might go, even when it wasn’t necessarily what I wanted to hear. I really appreciated her transparency. She listened to my entire situation without rushing me and never made me feel judged for being honest about my mistakes. That alone made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I’m very grateful for her time and compassion. Thank you so much Samantha Meyer

This is where lawyers go to start. You will be passed around until your retainer is gone as they have no good lawyers that actually stay at the practice. They will lie about lawyers you have previously used still being at the practice. I honesty feel like I should hav just given the 8000 dollars I gave to them right to my husbands baby mama

Marissa Winch was my attorney during a very difficult custody issue in family court. Not only was Marissa professional, but she also made me feel like I was talking to a friend. She explained everything to me and was very great at communicating. I Highly recommend Marissa!

This company took $12,500 from me and did nothing for me. The first lawyer they gave me Amanda had no fight in her. She is an office girl good for paperwork but not a lawyer who can fight a case. Then I was given another lawyer because I was so turned off from her performance in court. The second lawyer they gave me allowed my ex to lie under oath was writing me telling me I have court tomorrow and I didn’t. If you have this lawyer call court make sure you are on the schedule because they will charge you if you are not and say it’s the courts fault for not putting you on the schedule. If you want to get robbed and accomplish nothing then I would recommend this company . Realistically I would recommend a public defender over this company save your $ and aggravation
