Jill had a number of legal problems that helped me. My husband and I were able to reconsider the relationship of trust, make a will and become lawyers to buy a house.  Every time, we were trusted and they were very sensitive.

I worked with Carol on a friendly divorce with a friend. I made a reservation in January 2017 and paid the consultation fee. After shopping, I thought their rates were a little high, but I thought I could hire them with confidence.

2017 In October, I hired Carol, signed a letter of welcome and a contract with a retainer, and paid my deposit. At first they came to refund the consultation fee, so they refrained from making corrections and failed to cancel.  Next time I heard from Carol, one month later, I sent an email to Rachael and Susan, and I thought what the next step was. She waited for the next step because she said she should complete it within the year.
2018 I sent an email because no one followed the update to Iasking Carol. At that time, I don't know why Carol waited so long, but she submitted a petition for dissolution that she signed within 24 hours. Carol forgot about our incident and was kept waiting for another few weeks for the next step.

But I'm still waiting for March 2018...I called, I emailed..On March 13, Rachel responded and looked up what we were waiting for...She said nothing but an apology, but Carol assured me that she would sign a settlement by the end of Friday. Don't say anything at 7 p.m. on Friday. At this point I was at a loss, and I was frustrated at the forgetting of my case, and I had to keep on chasing after it all the time, wondering what was going on in the burner behind me. ...I wanted to ask Carroll for a refund by email and work elsewhere. Finally, Carol sent a settlement agreement at 9:43, apologized and said she was late on Friday.

3 On April 27, the final report was signed and the date of the court was decided on April 4.

Court Day: I was ordered to arrive at 9:30 in the morning, but it arrived a little early because I was nervous. At 9:30 in the morning I called the company that said she should be there. What are you wearing? Carol has not arrived. I thought, did she forget me again? I checked in to the clerk and waited. Carol arrived in seven minutes, the longest in my life. When she arrived, we went out, talked about what we should expect, and went back in. In the clerk, when she was told that there was a need for a sign or a seal, she didn't know what was missing, but she said that the clerk was so difficult that she had to do something. I sat waiting. When Carol returned to the judge, everything went smoothly and she finished emailing me the final documents of the court.

I am disappointed with the organization and management of this law firm. You are not allowed to ask your customers to follow the lawyer and monitor their case. It is also unacceptable to be late for trial.  "Don't worry about running late." I think the court was a routine for lawyers, but I was nervous with new experiences.

Divorce should not take six to seven months. It's true that we have an email from Carol that we should complete by the end of 2017. (I saved all the emails) It was not delayed, and in 48 hours all the things she needed were provided.

At first, I was very disappointed at their ability. Overall, when hiring this company, we will allow it to withstand delays, oversight, or reconsideration.  I also want to ask the company if they have time in your case. Carol may have done her unruly job. I don't know. Here we will permit the company to employ a lawyer.

I called this office, but they were very kind. They couldn't deal with my case and introduced me to a truly wonderful person!

Jill was urged during the first consultation to get information and help. She reviewed the Will and Trust document 10 years ago and provided a great answer to some nuances in the document. If you need to rewrite the trust, she will be my best resource. But she showed that my papers were already enough. She asked for free to thoroughly evaluate my papers. The best offices and lawyers!

Jill Metz and her team quickly trusted each other to bring together their will to live in the face of a horrific health crisis and imminent surgery. Her interest in details (especially things that I didn't expect) was impressive, and her interest in my business aspect was very thoughtful.
Her fee is fairly fair and her office is particularly
convenient.
I plan to use her again for the rental property.

I consulted Jill about the real estate plan. Jill was thorough, knowledgeable and honest about the cost (reasonable). Her office manager, Susan, also strengthened her friendly relationship with care professionals. Always get back to future needs. I recommend that you look forward to recommending her to your friends.

Jill Metz and her team were very satisfied with the legal support they provided.  I hired her office for the property plan.  I didn't have trouble making a schedule for my appointment at a convenient time.  When I met Jill, she explained the process thoroughly, answered all my questions and gave me a good choice to consider when completing the document.  She dealt with all our discussions from the standpoint of knowledge, empathy and confidentiality.  The price of the service was completely affordable.  I have no doubts about recommending Metz and her team to people who need legal guidance for real estate planning.  We will always contact the Metz office if necessary for further legal purposes.

Carol Jones was my wife and a recent home purchase lawyer. She was a model of professionalism and reliability. At the timing of our acceptance, we had a lot of work during the holidays, and we didn't shut our eyes at all to return emails during the holidays. She expresses us sincerely and fairly in the process of negotiations, and I tend to think that she helped us last succeed. At the time of the closing, he was very polite and calm in explaining the pile of documents to be signed, and he was also expert in the final negotiations with a lawyer who was required after the contract with the couple who had been repaired before the closing of the shop had not been fully concluded. I was able to make her work happy.

I worked with Jill Metz and her team and had a wonderful experience. The cost was reasonable and they walked through our process to make sure that we understand and are satisfied with all that they recommend and that we have signed. I recommend it to other people!

I and my husband worked with Jill and her team to create a mandate and a will. They simplified this process and helped us explain a lot of important details that we don't know. Anyone seeking help in family law is recommended.

Our real estate company has advised Carol Jones of Jill Metz to deal with the purchase of their first apartment.  Is it strange that I say I'm in love with a lawyer?  Me.  Carol was a total surprise.  On the first phone, we talked for 45 minutes, she walked to me through the whole process, very thorough, but we talked in a way that we could understand.  Having never bought a condominium, she was scared during the process and was able to answer the question.  She was wonderful, calm, intelligent, and just happy to work together.  If my lawyer is gone, I'll go with her.

My partner and I went to Jill Metz and built up a will and trust.  Jill was very useful and learned.  She answered our questions in a clear and humane way.  We received the documents in time and paid a substantial fee for Jill's legal services.

I also consulted Jill about the establishment of the new Condo Association.  I also understood her answer to my question and her concern about our Condominium Association and it was very helpful.

I am  Jill Metz and her office are recommended for high quality legal services offered in professional and attractive ways.

Twenty years have passed since my wife and I updated the major legal documents, and we have recently been updating Jill Metz& I decided to use. Associates employees, trusts, and other related documents to be updated. We visited their office twice. Both experienced positive and productive experiences. Everyone in practice was easy to work with us, and they were also professional. We are pleased to accept the decision to use Jill's company and recommend it to those who need family law.

Jill, Susan, Carol, and Jill Metz & The rest of the comrades are wonderful. They helped us with our land planning and family law.  Their work is great.  They are easy to get close to and can be used by themselves whenever they need it.  Their rates are reasonable.  We will give them the best recommendation.

Jill Metz represented our Condo Association. The judge told her that her complaint made no sense to him and that he did not know what he was trying to sue.  Jill had to hire another lawyer to draft the complaint and was unable to sue.  The judge called Jill over and over again because he did not have the proper knowledge or experience to conduct the trial.

It is recommended that you do not use Jill for trials or prepare documents that require further litigation. The judge allowed this to be left in the public information file!

I won't hire you again. a costly and terrible legal advice

Some small failures made me feel as if I were a celebrity. I was forced to pay unfairly high unfair settlements to my former partner.  I do not recommend this company.

I went to her to set up a will/trust.  She was very familiar.  I called and promised to ask questions. She sat down with me for half an hour and discussed options with me.  Two or three more appointments have been made, and we have finished.  Professional, but not non-personal.
