This was our first time ever needing a lawyer, and it was for a very emotional and stressful custody battle. While we won’t share the details of our case or the outcome, we feel compelled to speak to our experience working with Jennifer Bitner and her paralegal, Shannon.

When we first came to Jennifer, we were overwhelmed—scared, frustrated, angry, confused, and unsure of where to even begin. From that very first conversation, Jennifer immediately made us feel assured. Her transparency, knowledge, and straightforward approach gave us a sense of empowerment we didn’t know we needed. She was honest in setting our expectations, never giving us false hope, but her confidence, preparation, and strategy made us feel like we had the best possible person in our corner.

Jennifer’s experience and dedication, along with Shannon’s incredible support, were exactly what we needed during such a difficult time. Shannon was not only a source of emotional support but also a fierce and dependable part of the team. Together, they formed a powerhouse duo that we trusted completely.

Thanks to their hard work, we achieved the result we came to Jennifer for—and more. We would not hesitate to recommend Jennifer and Shannon to anyone facing the challenges of family court. Their professionalism, expertise, and compassion are unmatched, and they made one of the most stressful experiences of our lives manageable. Should we ever need legal assistance again, we would return to them without question. If you’re navigating the difficult road of a custody case, you could not ask for a better team to guide you.

Thank you so much Jennifer and Shannon, you really help get us through me of the hardest times of our lives. Thank you!!!

I recently went through one of the worst experiences in my life—my divorce. I am so very grateful for the help and representation I received from Jasmine Mitchell. It was a true privilege
to have her fight for me and my daughter. She sincerely and deeply cared about our well-being, happiness, and quality of life. She listened to my concerns, fears, wants, and needs. She was
extremely personable and easy to talk to.

Jasmine went up against a nasty, much more experienced attorney. Jasmine kept her cool but did not become jaded or flippant. She never lost focus of all that was at stake. She brought a skilled, yet fresh perspective to the case. She was always open and very human with me, and level-headed and fact-based in the proceedings. She was the steady hand that saved our lives in many ways. I honestly don’t know if I would have made it through without her, and I am quite sure
that I would not have had such a positive resolution.

Jasmine was a beacon of hope for both my daughter and I during an extremely difficult time. She knew my daughter was my top priority, so my daughter also became hers. We will be forever
grateful for the peace and freedom her help has given us with the final support order.

Jasmine’s calm and empathetic demeanor offered me so much needed emotional support during a time that the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. She always displayed a high level of professionalism, even when things got heated with opposing counsel. She exemplified honesty and kindness. She always stepped forward with the truth and held strong
that it would prevail.

After a long 3-day trial (not to mention months of legal wrangling and negotiation), Jasmine prevailed on my behalf and succeeded in winning even more than I had originally requested. I
highly recommend Jasmine Mitchell without any reservation. She is the ally you want and the advocate you need by your side during the most trying times in your life.

I am an anxious overthinker by default, and the entire team at Canfield Madow has been so helpful during this entirely too stressful process. From the very first consult Damon was understanding and knowledgeable, provided me with information I didn't even know I needed, and assured me that I wasn't alone or overreacting about the issues that prompted me to start legal action to begin with. He fiercely represents me in court, and provides a comforting humor (even if I'm usually too nervous to laugh in the moment, I do catch it). Hannah has been a pleasure to work with, and I trust her whole heartedly to take care of the best interests of myself and my child. Hannah also fiercely represents me in court, and makes sure I understand my own action items and what steps come next or what to expect. Damon and Hannah have been my voice during a very challenging time, and I am happy to have them on my team.

Jennifer has also become a friendly face to see, and is always happy to jump in where needed and provide information that helps me move forward. I worked with Shannon briefly as well, which was also a pleasant and informative experience.

Patty is an absolute delight, and I love our chats whenever I come in way too early. Which is every time.

Canfield Madow clearly works as a team, and while I hope I won't need them very often, I know whenever I do they will be there and they will be the first people I call. Or, more realistically, email.

Damon never responds to your emails and then charge you from them. The only way he will respond is if you say something that will easily offend him. I battled 2 1/2 years for custody of my now 3 year son. His legal assistant Hannah is amazing, a great writer, and understanding when communicated with. Damon did win my case about not allowing the mother to move further away to Seattle but other hearings he was not prepared for and he knew my son was too young for anything to happen at the beginning but would continue to take my money. The first order he did not get signed so the mother got away with contempt until it was actually signed and three months later was found in contempt but the mother did not have an attorney and she still was able to get the exchange location closer to her house. Damon takes on too many cases to have in his plate. He also belittled the security guy at the courthouse saying he takes his job too seriously for his hourly wage boasting that he makes more money than him. If you want a fast response in emails don’t hire Damon. His legal assistant would have done better. I got full custody of my son with Veronica Freitas. You need to hire Veronica she is the best check her reviews.

We cannot express our gratitude enough for the outstanding legal representation we received from Jasmine Mitchell. In the midst of a highly emotional and complex custody battle, she demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, compassion, and knowledge.

From the initial consultation, it was evident that she genuinely cared about the well-being of our family and was committed to securing the best outcome for our child. Her in-depth knowledge of family law and sharp legal skills were evident throughout the entire process.

Jasmine provided clear communication, keeping us informed at every stage of the case. Her attention to detail, thorough research, and timely responses were crucial in building a case that ultimately led to a successful outcome.

Closing this ongoing custody case was a pivotal moment for my family, and I credit Jasmine for her unwavering support and tireless efforts. If you find yourself facing similar challenges, I wholeheartedly recommend her services. Five stars are not just a rating but a testament to the exceptional quality of Jasmines legal expertise and genuine commitment to her clients.

Damon’s conference calls with me regarding assets and possible divorce were extremely helpful in calming me down, which in turn has allowed me to make better decisions for this situation. He was precise in his explanations, very articulate while explaining legal lingo that was new to me. Damon was also compassionate which I can’t tell you how comforting that felt considering the life-changing severity of divorce. Should I have to follow thru with this nightmare I will be calling this firm for help.

Joshua A.

I reached out to Damon as I was referred to him by somebody I trust and saw the negative reviews posted here on Google. Damon was very gracious and spent time explaining, without breaking any confidentiality, why those negative reviews are posted.

Thereafter, Damon provided incredible insight into my current situation, the legal representative for my former spouse, and the process moving forward. He provided incredibly valuable information pertaining particularly to my situation that likely means I can avoid engaging an attorney altogether and handle my situation via mediation.

I can't recommend Damon highly enough. He is a fantastic attorney with an incredible base of knowledge and did not attempt to have me retain his services when he assessed that my situation could be handled without that expense.

If you are seeking a highly regarded, experienced family law attorney who has high integrity and morals, you should definitely consider Damon.

Should I need to engage a family law attorney in future, I will not hesitate to engage Damon.
