I am extremely fortunate to have found Johanne to represent me for my divorce process. Unfortunately, I did have a previous attorney who I had to fire due to his lack of strategizing, horrible communication, and feeling like just a number. We have all heard those stories, and with him it was true. So, I am writing this while we wait for the Judge’s Order to be finalized. Therefore, I am writing this glowing review of Johanne regardless of the outcome. From day one, Johanne was strategic and thinking outside the box on our case, which should have settled but my soon to be ex-wife was well... stubborn to put it nicely. Anyway, Johanne was extremely thorough and well prepared throughout the process; even though her home was horribly impacted by multiple hurricanes with the last 2 (Helene and Milton) which was devastating. During court yesterday, she apologized if our divorce exhibits had a musty smell, but she took them with her when she evacuated. Johanne, made sure that I was extremely well prepared along the entire process from mediation, my deposition, digging for info to help her with the deposition of my soon to be Ex, our practice sessions for both my deposition and full day on the stand, as well as calling me out on areas of improvement. Her thoroughness was evident during the trial with her exhibits, questions for me, questions for the ex (which got under my Ex’s skin :-D), her objections, and thinking on the spot with some “drop the mic” moments. BOOM! Versus the other attorney that well…didn’t. This process of over 21 months was not at the fault or lack of attempts by Johanne to have this case settle. As she put it, 99% of cases like mine would settle, unfortunately ours did not. Needless to say, it is a financial and emotional rollercoaster and Johanne was extremely supportive, caring, and a positive influence. She heard me and I felt that she was 100% on my side. We are all human and I love the fact that she recognized that fact, and brainstormed with me to make sure that all the relevant points were covered at various stages of my divorce process. I highly recommend Johanne Shoffstall if you are looking for a strategic, hardworking, professional and caring attorney. Thank you so much Johanne!!!
