I regret hiring Janice Roven for my case. She initially assured me she would handle things a certain way, but once she had my retainer, communication became nearly nonexistent. Months went by with little to no updates, and I had to constantly call and email her office just to hear vague responses like, "We're reaching out to check your filing status." Nearly a year later, my case has barely progressed.
After retaining her, I spoke with her a few times, but then not again for six months—at which point she asked me to start from the beginning as if we had never spoken before. That call was long, frustrating, and ended with her completely changing the strategy she initially promised. She also made empty promises about assisting with a will, filing child support in my state, and protecting my child with an emergency order which never happened.
Emails to her and her paralegal, Catherine, were ignored for weeks at a time, and when I confronted Catherine about this, with Janice CCd, I got an apology—but the pattern continued. Worse, she never responded to my out-of-state attorney who was also working on my case, which led that attorney to assume she was no longer needed and withdraw. As a result, I’ve had to start over with another attorney, in both states, adding unnecessary financial and emotional stress.
If you’re considering hiring Janice Roven, be warned: she does not prioritize her clients. She’ll take your retainer and then drag your case out as long as possible while providing little to no communication. If you’ve had a good experience with her, that’s great—but I’ve seen many others with experiences just like mine. I strongly advise looking elsewhere if you want an attorney who will actually care about your case.
