- ★★★★★Incredible

Emile has to be one of the most honest lawyers I have come across. He has such an incredible work ethic and truly cares about his clients. Along with his paralegal, Rebekah, they've always handled my case with the attention and care it needed. Without them, I don't know where I would be. Thank you, E mile!

Emile Harmon - or his office - lost my contract agreement with his office two or three times after I signed it ... and blamed me. Emile Harmon repeatedly failed to return phone calls after he said to get in touch with him ... and blamed his (personally competent) paraprofessional. Emile Harmon rep eatedly told me he had physical therapists for me to go to after my injury but failed to return phone calls asking for their names. Later, he lied and told the AZ bar, where he has been reported for at least the second time, that he never said he had names of physical therapists. Emile Harmon told me that he would be able to get a demand letter for my case sent within three months. Four months later, after numerous unanswered requests to see the demand letter sent to the party being sued, he sent me the letter. It had numerous errors. I asked if we could fix it. He said we could. I asked how we could do that if it had been sent. He said it hadn't yet been sent after all. When I couldn't abide Emile Harmon's lack of professionalism any longer, I asked for my case to be transferred to another lawyer in the firm. Emile Harmon resigned my case saying, in part, that without physical therapy, my case isn't worth that much anyway. When he resigned it, he left me in a position where at least of some my medical bills have not yet been paid from my insurance (since his paraprofessional asked me to send him the release form from my insurance before I signed anything - I have no idea when she sent it out after that) and they are about to be reported to credit bureaus as unpaid. I reported his behavior to the AZ Bar, where he is currently being investigated. Update: I also engaged another attorney who, despite Emile Harmon's predictions, got me a large settlement. This attorney charged me only 29%, as opposed to Emile Harmon's ask of 40%. When I saw here that Emile Harmon had been sanctioned by the AZ Bar once, I should have paid attention and immediately engaged another attorney. This is now a decision I deeply regret.

Mr. Harmon was very aggresive when he needed to be and more importantly, he knew when to be aggresive to benefit my case. What a great change to see that there is an attorney out there who actually cares about his clients
- ★★★★★Refusing to refund my credit balance.
Cynthia · family law ·
I hired Mr. Harmon to assist in my divorce case. He brought in Diana Weinert to assist. He was late to make an appearance to a time sensitive issue. Every Friday, without fail, I. was asked to make a payment - which I did. He came on board in the spring of 2024 and I did not get an invoice until August, 2024 long after he was removed from my case. Upon financial audit of my case I discovered I had overpaid $28,000.00. He is refusing to refund me the money. His accounting department has neglected to post several payment made by me which when this is done the credit balance should be quite evident. I have yet to hear from him on my refund despite MANY attempts to get him to review the situation. CRICKETS.
- ★★★★★Refuses to provide a refund
Helen · litigation ·
I retained this firm a year ago, paid the $5,000 deposit and I had them for 1 month. They were supposed to send me monthly invoices, but I never received any. I requested a partial refund of some sort over 1 year ago, have had email exchanges with Emile, and have sent emails that continue to go un-re sponded to. When I requested the refund for the 3rd or 4th time (a year later) and informed Emile that I had never received any invoices telling me how much money had been used with a description of the service provided it was only then that out of the blue I received an invoice that wasn't correct. Diane had stated she would not charge me for certain communications yet in the invoice I was charged. I still have never received any sort of refund for unused monies.

Alyson and her team are amazing. She is always professional, timely, & extremely knowledgeable. She will be very upfront and honest about your case and how the law applies to your circumstance. She's been my attorney for the last 3 years. We have been very fortunate and satisfied with all the outcome s after multiple hearings.
- ★★★★★Valued and Respected
Rodney · family law ·
I had the unfortunate experience of going through a contested divorce! As such, I needed a good attorney to represent me. Alyson was referred to me by another Attorney I had been represented by in an accident case and I could not have hired a better Divorce Attorney! Alyson worked closely with me t hrough Oral Arguments, Evidentiary Hearing, and assisted in my negotiation of my Divorce Settlement. Alyson was empathetic to my situation and provided me with clear and concise information to assist in getting on with my life! Divorce is hard and I do not wish it upon anyone, however, Alyson is without a doubt who I would recommend should you need expert legal representation with Divorce proceedings. Thank You Alyson!!!

Melissa · family law ·
I hired Alyson Foster to draft my post-nup agreement; she also represented me through my divorce. I appreciated that Alyson was straight forward and realistic, but also had a sense of humor. She didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear, but I still felt she had my best interest in mind. Alyson str ongly advocated for me throughout the divorce process. She's responsive and always returned my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. She also recommended options for avoiding unnecessary legal fees, when appropriate. Her paralegal, Nikki, was also a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her services.
- ★★★★★Caring and Diligent

I hired Mrs. Foster to represent me in my divorce and child custody case. My case was complex, the other party refused to try to come to any agreements prior to going to court. I worked with Mrs. Foster for over three years on this case. She made sure that my children were safe and didn't give an inc h when it came to that. Her and her paralegal kept me informed of everything that was going on. She also assisted me with all necessary follow up and enforcement hearings. She was very personable and I felt like she really cared about my family and the outcome of our case. She walked me through the whole process and was very upfront about everything. If it weren't for her hard work and compassion, things could have turned out very different for my children. I am very glad I decided to hire her.
- ★★★★★Experienced, Knowledgeable & Understanding
Heather · family law ·
Alyson is amazing!! She's helpful, knowledgeable and she understands the needs of her clients. I originally hired Alyson back in 2012 for a child custody case (including filing an order or protection & order for child support). I ended up settling & coming to an agreement with my child's fathe r (my choice) which ultimately backfired, resulting in me hiring Alyson again in 2016. The 2nd time around I wasn't going to settle, I knew what was best for my child & I wasn't going to stop until I had sole custody. She was extremely supportive. It's comforting knowing that your attorney also has your child's best interest at heart. She's detailed, organized and always one step ahead. It's been a long road and I'm so thankful I had a great attorney to represent me. We won the case & I couldn't have gotten through it without her. I highly recommend her & have referred quite a few friends and family members to her because I know they'll be in good hands! Thanks for everything Alyson!!

Abby · family law ·
I highly recommend Kristi. She took great care of me during my divorce and got me the best possible settlement.
- ★★★★★THANK YOU KRISTI!!!
Angie · family law ·
Kristi was amazing! Divorce is tough and terrible to go through, but sometimes very necessary. Kristi came highly recommended, and I'm so glad I called her for a consultation. Kristi always made me feel comfortable through tough conversations, was compassionate, and believed in my case. She does h er job so well, and fought for what was right for myself and my children. I will forever be grateful to her for all of her efforts to financially get what my children deserved, and to protect my children from a bad situation. I have recommended Kristi to several friends in similar situations, and they have been so appreciative of the wonderful referral. Thank you Kristi - you are an angel!

I could not have expected a better outcome on my case.
- ★★★★★The ONLY way to go if your a Father in Maricopa county!
Jeff · family law ·
Ron picked up a mess of a case left him by a previously poor decision of mine. He is as thorough as possible, a case I thought was going to court and at a last minute settlement conference Ron exceeded my expectations and got me time with my daughter I thought I would never have. Ron and his team a re the best you can find in maricopa county.
- ★★★★★Fantastic Result
anonymous · family law ·
I couldn't have been happier with the result of my case! Ron diligently worked through multiple layers of delays and complications (including the wrongful removal of a child to another country). Ron consistently kept me up-to-date and I felt very confident that he would achieve the desired outcome. You will not regret having Ron represent you!
- ★★★★★I was his client.
Adam · family law ·
Ronald was excellent. This was my first time in my life having to use any type of lawyer. After 28 years of marriage I was struggling with my ex wifes decision to get a divorce. Ron recognized this and helped me tremendously. Not only did he help explain the steps and procedures but he also was c oncerned for me personally because of my emotional state of going through the divorce. Ron always conducted himself professionally. During the pandemic and having to adjust to the virual world was very different. He did an exceptional job in helping me with this. I will definitely recommend Ronald in the future for anyone in need of a lawyer. Thank you.
- ★★★★★Excellent Service
anonymous · family law ·
I hired Ron to resolve insurance co-pays for my last year of Child Support. The original Court Order stated my ex would provide my daughter's insurance and I was responsible for 75% of the co-pays or out of pocket expenses. In 2014 my ex could no longer afford health insurance for my daughter. I t ook over paying my daughter's health care insurance. My ex waited until 3 months before my daughter's 18th birthday to file documentation with DES for $11,000 of unpaid out of pocket expenses. The actual amount was $4,000. Ron was critical to resolving the issue and my final payment of $4,000. Prior to retaining Ron I had utilized the services of a well known family law firm that was supposed to be one of the best for "father's rights". Ron far exceeded what the original law firm accomplished with my case. Highly Recommended!!!!
