"I am writing this review concerning my experience with their attorney Jon Rogers who acted as a Guardian ad litem in my case without going into many details of the case. While I feel he listened to my children, I also feel that he ignored the bigger picture. His reports did not thoroughly address the plethora of issues that were backed by evidence. He also neglected to interview witnesses who could have increased the credibility of the evidence. With that being said, larger issues were ignored and the situations, not only have not improved, but have degraded further. If you are looking for someone to act as GAL that will look at the larger picture...keep looking. Edit: Shortly after posting this review, Mr. Rogers reached out to my attorney complaining about it. However, rather than inquiring more about the situation in an attempt to understand my concerns to make improvements on how he does his job or to try to remedy the situation like good companies do, he stated that he would be interested in me deleting this review. That will not be happening at this point"

"I don't even feel that they even deserve a star. Hired them for a protection order issue and they didn't want all of the info that was turned in because I have video proof of my innocence and they wanted nothing to do to do with it but try to settle on a B. S. arrangement which I was not happy and had to fire them!!!!!!!!!"

"I had Jon Rodgers as an appointed GAL just this year. He is not reachable and billing showed that he took multiple calls from the other party. My lawyer couldn't get through to him either. The entire process felt as if it was just a file that laid on his desk and the father was already going to take the hit. The report was filled with more accusations from the other party than professional input and painted a blatant bias against me. Notably, the report was made without Jon ever stepping out of his office to conduct a proper/honest investigation. None of my contacts were reached out to to discuss outside point of views regarding our case. I will admit that I didn't make a payment at the end in hopes that I could speak to Jon, but all attempts were a failure. After that a payment was made to end that cycle and even after; Jon would not speak to me to discuss a new GAL report and was honestly extremely rude. If you're a father looking to get an honest GAL report done that will show your potential, I would steer very far in the opposite direction from Jon Rodgers. I would give no star but it isn't an option."

"I highly recommend Jon Rogers for anyone in need of a family lawyer. He has handled my case with the utmost professionalism, compassion, and expertise. From the very first consultation, Jon took the time to understand my situation and provide clear, concise guidance on the legal options available. Throughout this process, he has been responsive, keeping me informed and ensuring that I have felt supported every step of the way. What has stood out most is Jon’s deep knowledge of family law and his strategic approach to resolving complex issues. He’s demonstrated a genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for my child and me, going above and beyond to protect our interests. Thanks to Jon’s hard work and dedication, I am able to navigate a challenging legal process with confidence and peace of mind. If you are looking for a skilled, caring, honest, and effective family lawyer, I cannot recommend Jon highly enough. Karagan"
