Law Offices of Janet L. Mertes

I year ago I hired Janet Mertes to help me with my divorce. it was a horrible time as anyone who has gone through a divorce would know. I walked in Janet's office broken and wanting just to be done with my ex. Janet and I discussed my case and she advised me of my legal rights and what I deserved when this divorce was final. Throughout the whole process Janet and her assistant Beth kept me informed and explained the legalities to me. They where very professional and had my back at every turn. I year later I am very happy I listened to her advise. I definitely will refer her to all my family and friends!

I highly recommend Janet to anyone in need of some help with a Divorce and/or Bankruptcy. She is such a pleasure to work with and makes you feel very comfortable. I am so happy I found Janet to work with. Thank you!!!!!

She works very hard to make sure you have winning results. I could not have asked for better services. From the moment I first called and met with Attorney Janet Mertes I was at ease that I had made the right choice. Highly recommended Thank you again Ms. Mertes.

I was referred to Janet for a Family Law case. She has been absolutely incredible. Janet not only was very prompt but very professional and knew the laws in and out. I felt very confident having her by my side and I would recommend her to anyone looking for legal representation. She is caring and is out to help people and their families with what is best for both parties.

Janet L. Mertes is mediocre lawyer. Does not have compassion nor experience she professes to have. Completely disregards any concerns or request of her own client, literally. Did not represent myself in ANY way. I wish I had taken the other complaints against her I have seen seriously, unfortunately I was in a rush situation when she was hired. My only guess for her complete disregard of her client, is that if you are struggling financially, she does not have any reason to to fight for you. But also feel she is not quite educated in complicated factors that often accompany family matters. Most only get one chance in whatever thier legal matter is, do NOT take that chance with Janet! I will be happy to clarify or explain to anyone considering hiring her...

Janet has represented our family on multiple occasions. She handles our estate planning, and family law needs. She has also represented several friends who have reported positive outcomes and thanked me for the referral. Janet is professional, effective, and affordable. In life, things come up. Things some of us hope never to have to face. Having her in our corner as advisor, advocate, and legal representative has been nothing short of a blessing. Janet is kind, yet fierce and lazer focused. She has consistently gone above and beyond to strategically position us for best outcomes. Janet effectively prepares us, is always honest with us and has walked us confidently through each situation. Janet doesn't sugar coat things or tell people what they want to hear for the sake of her gain. She kowns the law and is very good at communicating what to expect, what is realistic and what the best approach is for each particular situation. Her willingness to have these sometimes 'tough truth' conversations has likely saved us thousands of dollars and lot's of headaches.I refer her with confidence to anyone looking for representation for family law, estate planning or bankruptcy.

Horrible representation, seems inexperienceD at practicing family law. She is unskilled at mediation. Janet has horrible communication. She returns calls or emails when she wants to. I felt so poorly prepared for court hearings. To top it off, she's unprofessional and rude.

Free half hour consult.
