Most people will only need a lawyer a handful of times in their lives. One of those times is during significant family transitions such as divorce, separation and adoptions. Much is at stake in these cases - not just your financial and property interests, but most importantly, your relationship with your children and their day-to-day life.

I worked with Janine Gawryl and she was completely rude. Went to her to get help getting on disability and she made me out to be someone that was faking and suggested that I get a job. She needs to learn to communicate better with her clients and be more respectful. I do not suggest using her if you have a disability and you are looking for help because she will just make you feel worse about yourself.

The lawyer I met with was very late to our appointment so half of the allotted time ended up being via telephone. When she did arrive to speak in person, I got the distinct impression she really wasn't tuned in to what I was saying. In a nutshell, I left feeling as though I'd been dismissed and unheard. It was a waste of my time and energy.

I hired Joseph MacAllister to handle my divorce. He did an excellent job and kept everything in perspective.
Divorce is never easy, but Attorney MacAllister made my divorce less stressful by focusing on the important issues. While the other parties attorney spent time and money with unimportant issues, Attny MacAllister recognized what needed to be done and did it.
He was non judgemental and transparent during the whole process. The outcome was in my favor and I feel we were successful.
Joseph MacAllister is fair, honest, prompt, professional, experienced, knowledgeable and has a good sense
