Although Janet might seem like she has no emotion towards your case...she is amazing and knows how to get done what needs to be done.

If you are on this page then most likely it's too late to advise you that stay out of trouble. I hired Janet after consulting with several attorneys. I felt she was very honest and straightforward, which turn to be true. She never tried to play my fear. She understood my case very well and advised me the right thing. A combination of her good work and a bit of luck my case ended with a much better result than we both were expecting. The only negative I would say about her is that she once in a while loses her temper, but who doesn't.

Ms. Altschuler answered the phone directly and provided me concise legal advice to help research an issue. I look forward to working with her in the future.

I thought I was in trouble with the law, based on a misunderstanding. I called Janet in the evening expecting a voicemail and was startled that she answered. I explained my situation briefly and she knew right away that it was a scam and that she'd heard of several situations similar to mine recently. I hope I never get into any legal trouble, but Janet will be my first call if I do.

Janet Altschuler is the right attorney for the job. Janet tells you like it is. She does give you a line of bull to get you as her client. Janet excepted me as a client on a D.V. arrest charge. When it csme time to go to trial she performed like a seasoned pro who knew her way around the court room. Janet was well prepared for trial. She exposed the acusers for what they were, liars trying to protect there own selves. Janet did her job well and all charges were dropped. Good job Janet!!!!

I was charged with 7 different misdemeanor charges and Domestic Violence. Janet believed in me and was understanding through the whole court process. It was 6 months long and we went to trial. All my charges were dismissed and I owe it all to Janet. I was scared at first and was almost going to take a plea because everyone around me was telling me too. Janet advised me not too. And stated "lets take this to trial". She was right. All charges were dropped. I would highly recommend her as a lawyer and I would seek her advise and services again if I ever needed them. She was understanding, kind, intelligent and professional. I left my life and future into her hands and she gave me a better brighter future and had me in her best interest. I could never be able to show my greatest gratitude and appreciation for what she has done for me and my family. Please if you ever need a wonderful lawyer you should hire Janet. This is truly a success story and you could have one of your own.

We found ourselves needing some guidance and reached out to Janet for help. She responded quickly and told us what we could expect with our pending case. She really put our minds at ease and our case proceeded almost exactly as she told us it would. We were and are so grateful for her help during this confusing time. Thank you so much!
