I have been involved in what turned out to be an extremely nasty custody, cpo appeals and four criminal case in three different counties. I felt defeated with no way out of the mess I was in. I was able too keep custody of my two children durning this time and have since went on to win every case against us because of this firm. I cant find the words to describe what each individual from this firm has done for me and my daughters. I was represented by three attorneys ( Michelle, Chris, Ron) going into this dark part of my life, I knew this firm was a group of the best in Ohio as I was referred by a highly respected local attorney saying these guys are who you want, they are the best in Ohio. So theyre reputation wasnt what surprised me. It was the balance of personalitys in the firm that creates the ability to be the best in Ohio. Everyone from the office manager/Andrea to Jaime and Amanda/ paralegals and down the line. When one individual would be straight forward the other would give hope and reassurance and another would relate and understand. They kept me sane durning the hardest time of my life and gave me something no amount of money could be enough. After going through situations that was set up to break me, its been a blessing that I had everyone from the Petroff law office on my side. The way they make you feel will give you hope and strength to get through the things needed. Every individual at the firm is literally the best at what they do. The atmosphere, camaraderie and sense of family in the Petroff office is something special to walk into. I will recommend And be indebted to this office for the rest of my life.

The best way I think I can review Chris is soft spoken, good sense of humor, and a when he needs to be a Bully back by facts and law. Below is just an extract of a Thank you email I sent his office in closing of a custody battle. Results I kept all my right and full custody of my 11month old daughter. Being a single dad i did not have high expectations. It's an art and you will be glad when litigation begin you chose this group. Its quiet entertaining to watch your lawyer out lawyer the other side. Dont be on the other end ,go with Chris or atleast his firm. Thanks for always being professional and helpful throughout this experience. Your office is held in the highest regard to me and will always be my recommendation to anybody who wants a family lawyer. I know it's just a job for you guys and like all of us in our day to day operations things can become mundane. So it takes a special group of people and firm of your size to make clients feel a sense of comfort and confident . In probably one of the most trying and stressful times in there lives. Thanks again.

I worked with Michelle Askins from another firm so it was a breath of fresh air when I landed her again with Petroff Law. To modify my divorce decreeShe has always been transparent, responsive, and highly empathetic. Would recommend this firm and their team

I went through a tough divorce in 2018 and Ron and his team were extremely helpful throughout the entirety of the process. Divorce is a very stressful undertaking, but I was glad to be represented by absolute professionals in Petroff Law Offices, who worked with me day in and day out to help me understand the process, navigate the complexities and ultimately come to an agreeable resolution. I strongly recommend Ron and his team to anyone going through the divorce process!

Aubrey O'Connell

Ron Petroff and his team were wonderful. Not only were they professional and attentive, you can tell they truly care about their clients. I will not hesitate to use them again! Thanks!

Benjamin Friedman

Ron is a fantastic divorce lawyer and a great guy. Ron has built a team of smart and aggressive lawyers that provide top quality legal representation and deliver the highest level of customer service.

John Griffey

Ron Petroff and staff are best in class. I give my highest recommendation for those seeking true advocacy in family and domestic matters. A deep understanding of Ohio law and skill helped stem the tide in my case at a critical moment. Do not underestimate the need for true expertise.

Benjamin Alfrey

Horrible, they expect you to pay 250 dollara just to consult about your case? Not even for paperwork or filing. Just for a consult. Wow what families could you be helping?! The trumps or clintons? Horrible prices and little to no understanding for the commobers of this world.

Steve Baum

I had a great experience with this law firm, from start to finish. I was never surprised with unexpected charges - as the billing was very transparent (which I greatly appreciated). HIGHLY recommend this firm if you're looking for strong, intelligent legal representation as well as people who actually care about your situation.

Shannon O

Friendly and attentive staff that value honesty, integrity, and discretion. You truly get not just 1 great attorney, but a team that collaborates, drawing on each others knowledge and expertise for the best possible outcome. Divorce is a very difficult process on a multitude of levels and the team offered not only legal advice and advocacy, but sensitivity and emotional support. Throughout the case they became an extended family that was invested in ensuring a healthy and happy new beginning for me and my children.

Champion Trading Group

Went above and beyond to service our needs and at a fraction of the cost of our previous firm. Best in Ohio

Hands-down to number one lawyer Ron Petroff I must let everyone know this. I was going through a divorce I had a long marriage I thought that I was going to lose this case. I hired another lawyer from Massucci Law group they did not do much for me I felt like they did not have the best interest for me I almost lost my case. A friend of mine told me about Petroff Law. Ron was my lawyer when I took him my paperwork he did a 360 on my whole case. When this case was over I pretty much got everything and then some that I did not think could happen I am the most happiest man right now. I cannot thank him enough the only thing I can do is write this review I now have his number locked in my phone.M Campbell

Competent and caring. Very nice from initial phone call to consultation.

J John

I've experienced nothing less than fantastic service and outstanding attention to all of my concerns and requirements. I want to thank Ron, Jelena and Patricia in particular for working with me flexibly and providing excellent support. They made the entire process that much easier to manage. I highly recommend their services. Being from England also and needing services that could work with time differences and different resources they made sure everything was as smooth as can be for me. I am extremely happy. Thanks Petroff Law Offices!

Anne Hinton

Staff was very professional. Very attentive to my needs. Would highly recommend them to anyone.

Nate Mills

I worked with Michelle Meis as my attorney on a dissolution proceeding. She answered all my questions in a timely manner, was responsive to my concerns and how I wanted to proceed at all times, and made the entire process go smoothly. I highly recommend.

Michelle LaPrad

By far, the most sophisticated and high class firm in the city. I highly recommend Attorney Petroff and his entire office for anyone going through a high conflict divorce or custody case.

Grays Mum

Finding a custody attorney that clearly knows the law, and parental rights in Columbus was not an easy task. I interviewed multiple attorney's before finding Ron Petroff. Ron knows the law, is confident with what he knows, and was grounded, understanding and directive in the process. The experience of court (especially for your child) is not a fun place to be and I was just really glad that I hired Mr. Petroff to defend me in my corner. He is timely, concise, professional and good to have on you side. Much appreciated across the board, probably one of the best attorney's in Columbus, and I highly recommend him for any Family Legal needs.

Petroff Law Offices, LLC was a fantastic choice in representation. Ron Petroff is extremely knowledgeable and highly professional. I felt that the entire office had the best interest in mind for me and my family and gave honest and fair counsel every step of the way.

Andrea Christian

I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Erika Smitherman was kind, professional, and very knowledgeable of the law. I wanted my case dismissed due to lack of jurisdiction and that's exactly what happened. She was absolutely stellar. I wouldn't hesitate a minute using her again. She is compassionate AND competent...two qualities rarely seen together. What more can I say.... she is a total class act and came through for me. I will always be grateful for her defense.

Allison Dunn

My parents have retained Petroff Law Offices, LLC for a custody matter. Erika Smitherman was their attorney. She was fantastic! She knows her stuff. She worked in their best interest and helped my parents get two little girls. I would highly recommend her for all your custody issues.

Ron was professional and made himself available. He thought of things that I didn't to make our agreements more complete and manageable. He was kind and understanding of how difficult this process was for me. Everyone in his office was very involved and helpful. I would recommend Petroff Law Offices to anyone going through this painful process. I am very appreciative of he way his whole firm handled my case. I felt like I was in capable and caring hands.

Velanna Murdock

Ms. Askins was patient enough to explain in detail the process and expectations of my case. My particular case was one that was thrown into my lap. She was able to drop everthing to be at my side with less than 24 hours notice! Her fees are clear cut and reasonable. In addition, she doesn't overprice, and refunds what is not used. Though this is the way I think most attorney's should bill, many I have dealt with in the past have not. Therefore, I would state that she is an honorable lawyer worth hiring again! All details were itemized, and I was consistently informed of how my money was being used in my case, as well as what information was being discussed. She was also calming and reassuring to have in my defense. Her knowledge and professional manners were able to win my case. I have already recommended her to others, and I will do so again! Thank you so much!

Jamie

Ron and his whole team are amazing!! I don't even know where to begin. We were in a very intense custody case when I found Ron. He was truly an answer to our prayers. We felt our backs were up against the wall and was not sure what to do. Ron immediately took action. He brought Chris in our case right away and started turning things around! After all the stress and worry for months on end we finally felt like we could breath. I did not think it was possible for us to come out on top after all these months of feeling like we were buried. I could not have been more wrong. Ron would not settle for that! He knew instantly what to do. He knew things had been filed wrongly and got them overruled! That in itself was a huge relief for us! Every question or concern I had was answered promptly and they were very sympathetic to my concerns. This team is amazing! I truly can't say enough good things about them! Very professional! We would highly recommend them to anyone!!

Michelle Rondinelli

Petroff law offices helped me resolve a very difficult case in a timely, courteous and professional manor. I would highly recommend their services.

Nicole and Chris Pieroni

Attorney Ron Petroff and Erika Smitherman (along with the entire staff) at Petroff Law Office provided excellent and quality service. My husband and I always felt that our needs were met and that the firm was invested in us, our children and our custody case. They were easily accessible, aggressive, got back to us in a timely manner, and got the results that we had hoped for. Their responsiveness, knowledge and authenticity during a complex case kept us stable and successful. Petroff and Smitherman were always engaged when needed and always made good value of the retainer by utilizing the right staff member for the right task. Not only are they top notch professionals, they are sharp strategists that truly care for their clients. Petroff and his entire team made a very difficult situation much easier to deal with and produced the highest quality that anyone would want when hiring a family law/litigation attorney. Highly recommended.

Elegra Davis

I find Ron's firm to be highly professional and capable in the area of family law. Ron's down-to-earth attitude and knowledge of the field makes him a unique choice.

I don't even know where to begin... I suppose I will start at the beginning, and in doing so, will also do my best to be as succinct as possible. I will say that when I decided to finally move forward with a divorce - which is something I delayed as long as I could - I was beyond lost. No one knows how to 'do divorce.' Furthermore, it's one of those things where you have to learn as you go -- and it starts with finding someone with the integrity and acumen that can help you navigate what is by far one of the most emotionally-impactful, life-altering (perhaps shattering at moments) transitions you may ever experience. That said, there are things you should know. Hire a family attorney. You should seek out someone who understands the complex nuances of family law -- which, incidentally, to this mom of three young children navigating this process, were completely foreign... There is no instruction guide for this - you just figure it out -- or you are fortunate enough to find someone with the integrity and industry-knowledge who will be the catalyst in that learning curve -- and bring you up to speed in the most efficacious (and hopefully cost-effective) manner. Because that is the other thing that one isn't prepared for going into this... the price tag attached. Sure, you hear jokes about the cost of divorce - movies immortalizing the truism of the expense of divorce (Think Billy Crystal in 'When Harry Met Sally' - karaoke scene.), but nothing really prepares you for what it means to really squeeze blood from a stone. Platitudes aside, again, you hope that when you are at your most vulnerable, you can defer to someone who will help you make sense of something that really doesn't make much sense at all.Ron Petroff IS that person, but I had to experience the consequences of a wrong choice, before I finally found his firm. I reached out to friends and colleagues for referrals, when I finally decided to file for divorce. I learned quickly that I had not chosen wisely. When I had that epiphany, I changed counsel. I saw just how much my general attorney should have known -- and yet did not, given how specialized an area that family law was. That is when I scheduled a consultation with Ron.Ron was direct. Ron was professional. Ron was the response to the list of things I outlined above... and then some. I remember sitting in his office during that initial consultation, thinking to myself that I absolutely could not believe that I had not found him three months earlier. Yet no one knows how to 'do divorce.' Who should? No one goes into a marriage thinking that divorce is an option. (At least, I hope people don't.) Instead of continuing to feel like I was at the mercy of how things played out, I suddenly felt like I was on the offensive. I owe this to Ron. The truth is - to reference something I mentioned earlier, divorce really isn't like it is in the movies. Everyone loses. It is just the way it is. However, what the process becomes is trying to minimize just how much each of you loses. And that is why I would shout from rooftops that Ron Petroff is the person you should hire to help you get through this transition.I was beyond clear about what I had wanted... and what I had hoped for... And as I said earlier, Ron was direct. He was sympathetic, yet pragmatic. He had an intensity and a spectrum of knowledge that were unrivaled (as far as I can tell)... that motivated him to consider all of the possible outcomes of each choice, and to move strategically on behalf of his client. He listened, and responded decisively. He was a tenacious advocate for his clients - and knew the landscape of his profession to the end that it fostered a powerful rapport and respect among others in his area of practice.Having finalized my divorce in July, I am beyond grateful to Ron and everyone in his firm for making strides no one else could and for being the advocate for me and my children that I should have hired from the very beginning.

I have used the services of Darren McNair of McNair Petroff on numerous occasions. Darren helped me form an LLC, he helped be get a trademark on a product on own, he has done Living wills, Wills, and Power of Attorneys for my family and other contacts of mine. He also assisted a friend in achieving a quick dissolution.The staff at McNair Petroff is very professional and courteous. I have referred them and will continued to do so based on the service I have received. It is good to have this firm in your corner.

Greg Aler

Class A Service all around. Ron's team is efficient, professional and understands how to handle tough situations.

Dan Dragin

Darrin helped me quickly close a collections case several years ago, and he has served many people I know who have always had great things to say about his firm

Department Legal

Hands down, the best family law firm in the city. A great partner in the central Ohio legal community.

Elizabeth Roper

Professional, friendly, timely, affordable, accommodating...I can't think of enough words to describe how this firm turned a negative experience into a positive.

Daniel Dragin

Attorney McNair helped us arrive at the desired outcome for a collections case for our business. His determination and perseverence led to the result we were looking for. I would highly recommend McNair Petroff for any collections needs you may have.

Angie Joslyn

Mr. Petroff is truly among the best in his field. I am a member of the legal community and I often have to send my clients to Mr. Petroff when they have family law issues. I have never been disappointed with that decision. The bottom of the line is that Mr. Petroff just knows how to get the best results and ultimately gets the job done. I have personally seen him in action and can say he is unparalleled in the family law arena. He is a dedicated, knowledgeable and passionate lawyer that not only would I use myself but happily refer to any friend or family member knowing that they were in the best of hands.
