Joanne is a kind non judgmental attorney who fights hard for women and children rights with sincerity and love.

Miss Baitup was never available. When she did finally return a call I was given the excuse that she didnt have "the reports" available. Trying to discuss strategy was not in need of "the reports". I was told she only keeps office hours on Fridays? Every friday of me showing up to try to speak with her after weeks of no return calls... Doors locked! Left messages in her box and nothing. I hope that Porter County Juvenile center will take her off their roster of attorneys for defense of children. Worst experience! Sounds like from the previous comment that sadly my children and I are not the only ones with this experience.

She is appointed to me through the courts. She rarely returns my phone calls. When she does says she doesn't have much to talk about because she doesn't have a report. That doesn't mean that I don't have concerns or questions I need help with. Refuses to meet with me until right before court. I'm very disappointed and wish she was more helpful. I'm hoping they can appoint me with someone who can actually help or do something.
