You will not be disappointed with JoAnn! I initially went to another attorney for my divorce that was less expensive and all they did for me was take my money and waste my time. JoAnn and her staff keep you updated throughout the whole process. All of her staff was extremely friendly, professional and efficient.

First of all, her website is so professional and easy to use. In my opinion, Jo Ann Coughtry is the best family attorney for divorce, custody, and support that I have ever encountered. I see a lot of commercials about attorneys wanting to fight for me but they are just out for the money, Jo Ann Coughtry actually wants to fight for me and I believe she is definitely on my side. I called in earlier and She was so nice and actually listened to me. In Conclusion, I would recommend her services to family and friends in a heart beat.

Jo Ann E Coughtry is the best Attorney in her area to cover your divorce, custody rights or support after the divorce. My friend consulted with Jo Ann and found her to be both knowledgeable and professional. She took on the case, knowing that there would be some challenges, (my friend's ex was very aggressive ). After time passed, my friend was rewarded an acceptable amount of child support which Jo Ann advocated and also received agreeable divorce terms and solutions. My friend was a little nervous about the whole divorce procedure; but Jo Ann was able to bring her through all her worries to a place of peace. I can say, without hesitation, you will not be disappointed if you trust Atty Jo Ann to help with you divorce case ..

I was online searching for a divorce attorney and from the search engine results I find this attorney Jo Ann E Coughtry. I located her contact number and proceed to give her a call and during the same day her staff schedules me to come in the next day for a free consultation. Her staff was so kind and polite with helping me with my divorce. They ask me for all the necessary information to prepare my case to present it before the judge. I was very pleased with the outcome and would definitely recommend her to others.

I would definitely recommend Coughtry Law as someone who had family law issues as well as financial law questions. Although my separation was an amicable one, there were plenty of property and financial issues that cropped up as a result. Jo Ann was friendly, informative, professional, and really walked me through everything to get me as close to a perfect result as she could. All of my concerns and questions were addressed, and I felt like she really cared about the outcome.

Joann took my contested divorce she was unable to do it. She trapped me to retain her. She promised me too much, but she did not get house for me, did not get pension for me, did not get legal fees for me, did not get alimony for me, did not get wrong judgment reversed for me, did not know how to defend me and got order of protection against me. She was afraid of judges and afraid of opposing attorneys. She trembled in court house. She tampered with my retainer agreement to charge me tremendous emails and charged me legal fees of about $34,365. I got legal fee arbitration and paid her $24,500. I wrote negative reviews against her. She hired a lawyer to threaten me for defamation lawsuit and called a police officer to knock my door to threaten to arrest me for writing negative review against her.
It is hard to trust her overwhelming positive reviews.

Contrary to what most people may think about lawyers, JoAnn Coughry actually cares about her clients. She's smart, knowledgeable, reliable and amazing at her job.

When you call her office, you don't get a receptionist. Instead, JoAnn takes pride in taking her client's calls directly in order to help ensure that she has a meaningful connection with them. She truly cares about the relationship and doing the best job for you. I have met other people JoAnn has represented and they have all said how much they love her.

We had a rough divorce. We had a rough marriage so leaving it was going to be hard. JoAnn protected my children from what would have been a rough situation. She stayed in contact whenever something changed and worked with me throughout.

I hired Jo Ann to be my divorce attorney. The divorce is finally complete but she did not communicate effectively which caused the entire process to be more stressful than needed. One example: I am retired military 23 years and had hoped for someone who could explain the effects of divorce on my military retirement in detail since it is different than a normal retirement, so I could understand. I still have no idea! Overall bad communicator I felt totally in the dark. - Addition: After seeing this review she threatened me with legal action via email for this review.

I can't thank Jo Ann and her team enough for the professionalism they bring to the table... Having dealt with an alienating mother for over 11 years, multiple court battles that left my emotional and psychological well-being in shambles, adding long stretches of not seeing my children, nor the ability to communicate with them... Despair consumed this loving father... I did some research and was very impressed by Jo Ann and her team. To be succinct, Jo Ann and her team saved my children's lives and provided my family with an outcome that far surpassed our initial expectations. I highly recommend Jo Ann's services for any family court matters.

Jo Ann is a excellent attorney, I have been through five attorneys after being coerced and mislead in a divorce matter. From our first meeting to the present she been a knowledgeable and effective advocate. I only wish I started with her from the very beginning, it would have saved me useless financial debt.

We were on the verge of a divorce, and I wasn’t seeing eye-to-eye with my husband. I contracted Jo Ann for the divorce case, and was ready for the battle ahead. Surprisingly, she found a way to get my husband and I, to sit and have a talk. Though we got divorced, the process became smoother after that sitting, and we are still good friends with my ex-husband. Thanks Jo Ann.

No one likes to go through a divorce, including me. JoAnn was referred to me by a friend and she did not disappoint. With two kids and moving, I did not have the energy for this, but she took care of everything. Now, I just focus on me and the children. I certainly recommend her too.

One of the first steps of a divorce is mediation. Jo Ann set up a mediation meeting to try and hammer out the points of the separation my spouse and I were not in agreement on. Jo Ann was a very direct and helpful mediator. It was amazing how well it worked.

Joann E. Coughtry charged me one email for $50 and sent it to 4 email addresses of mine and then charged me 4 x $50 = $200. One day she sent me 27 emails and charged me 27 x $50 = $1,350. And another day she sent me 29 emails and charged me 29 x $50 = $1,450. And again one day she sent me 12 emails and charged me 12 x $50 = $600. She just sit at home and wrote the same emails to me and charged me legal fees and did nothing for me. Can you trust this attorney? Can you retain this attorney for your divorce, for your custody of children?

JoAnn worked diligently to protect my parental rights in a very messy and unbalanced custody/support situation. I never had trouble reaching her and even though I was often at my wit's end, she demonstrated a lot of grace under pressure; she is also an excellent listener, which is rare among the family law attorney's that I'd previously encountered in Albany, NY

My husband and I had already discussed the terms of the separation. We did not want courts to dictate what we felt were life decisions. JoAnn not only provided the agreement that we were seeking, but she was the only attorney out of several that I contacted that listened to what I wanted and did not try to steer me away from being reasonable and fair in the process. She offered suggestions and clarifications but respected what I wanted as a client. I would highly recommend JoAnn. Most importantly, she listened and responded to what I wanted.

She works hard and strives to achieve all of her client's needs to their satisfaction. I believe she is the best matrimonial attorney in the area!
