- ★★★★★Jeannine Gomez in review
Jean-Pierre ·
I was so fortunate to have, discovered j. Gomez. She really listened and, opened n'y, eyes to various options i had not considered as, well as the consequences of my decision. I knew she was with me; she lifted an emotional weight from my shoulders. And she communicated in my language.
- ★★★★★No need for consultation! Just hire her.

This has to be the most honest review I’ve ever written and words can never do this wonderful woman justice. Jeannine was my attorney through the most traumatizing phase in my life. Separation and divorce are very taxing! They wear the parties involved out emotionally, physically and financially and finding an attorney who offered me very personalized attention, addressed all my concerns with utmost patience and intelligence during those ugly times had a very positive impact on my case...it changed my life. I remember my very first phone call with Jeannine and how she and Elsa, her-then office paralegal, received me with a broad smile during the intake. Throughout a very lengthy and complicated case I never felt rushed or treated as less than a good friend. Her small and bright space at the time felt like the safest place a broke and heartbroken woman could ask for. Jeannine was phenomenal at keeping me even-keeled, thinking long term, and doing more than just counsel me and talk legalese. In the privacy of her office, Jeannine’s calming voice, empathetic nature and genuine concern for me offered emotional succor (I know I wasn’t the easiest client to work with and I owe you an apology! I’m so sorry, Jeannine). Inside the courtroom, her confident and calm demeanor, her ability to read people, evaluate which argument best advances her strategy and her methodical way of presenting every argument, make her stand out in court. You’ll immediately notice how wildly respected Jeannine is by other lawyers, paralegals, law students, judges and court clerk. In my opinion, these sets of skills are the most valuable assets a family lawyer can have. Upon being successful in what we wanted to achieve; it was almost as if I had made a friend with lots of legal knowledge. That was nine years ago. She has since represented many clients and won many cases. I hope it is never necessary, but I wouldn’t think twice to hire Jeannine again if circumstances warrant it and she’s willing to be subjected to my drama one more time. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a family lawyer! I really can't say enough good things about Jeannine Gomez … If you are in need for a great lawyer, look no more.

I highly recommend Sheila Kadagathur of Hostetter Strent , who handled my divorce/custody case. The entire Hostetter team was extremely helpful and compassionate during a hectic period of my life. I always felt like I was their priority and could count on them at any time of day or even night. All of the staff I encountered at the firm were honest, reliable, and professional. Ms. Kadagathur's expertise and vast knowledge enabled them to handle various situations and whatever was thrown at us throughout my case.
- ★★★★★Simply terrific

I’m grateful to Sheila K. for representing me in my divorce. Her knowledge, intelligence and advocacy skills helped guide me through the divorce process and ultimately to a fair settlement. And as a bonus, Sheila is a compassionate and terrific person.
