extremely bias, unfair.

extremely bias, unfair. she does not look at the facts nor the evidence . she is very quick to dismiss this things she doesn't not agree with regardless of the proof or how they effect people. she is the reason , 3 children are living with their abuser. she responded back on a case almost 10 months later and completely disregarded all the facts. she lets someone with al long standing history of lying , manipulating the court and with multiple well documented cases of abuse not only win in court. but required tech other party to pay the legal fees, double the support, and now between temp. maintenance and alimony they have paid for more years than they were even together. even those they were never legally married. she request the other party pay them money for money they faked a transfer for that was years after they were divorced. this people shows 4 years of contempt of court and violation of child custody ordered complete disrequest for the court. this person had 4 attorney quit on them for plyaing games and delaying the trail. yet they still won. the judge stated because they started earning significant more money after the divorce its unfair. the other party quit their job because they chose to .. not because of the children the children are all in school . they also clearly stated in court tthat wanted to give up castoff of the children but only if they got paid more than $3500 a month. now they are getting close tot $15K a month and the children are not totaling care of , they are held from their parent , they are verbally, mental and sometime physical abused. and now I have to go back to court again . I have spent almost t9 years in court. she is the only hostile one. even the court appointed therapist suggested she have less time. but not the judge. the judge gave her more time. if you get her.. switch her out.. she does not deserve to sit on the bench.

Judge Blackwood is the most biased and unprofessional judge in the White Plains courtroom.

Judge Blackwood is the most biased and unprofessional judge in the White Plains courtroom. She clearly showed the relationship with one of the attorneys representing a divorce by allowing the attorney and her client to lie about the opposing spouse. She changed the divorce decree by forcing one party to be made whole and trying to fincancially ruin the opposing party. This judge not only allowed ONE attorney to write the divorce decree but didn't allow the opposing attorney to make any changes or oppose what was written. When financial documents were requested to see the financial status of the spouse claiming hardship she totally ignored the request even though this person was working and fully capable of supporting themselves along with purchasing health insurance by their employer. She's an absolute disgrace and clearly allows her relationships with certain attorneys to sway her decision in the courtroom. If you run across her do yourself a favor and request another judge.

Hon. Helen Blackwood is probably the most ideologically driven and biased Judge I ever got to meet.

Hon. Helen Blackwood is probably the most ideologically driven and biased Judge I ever got to meet. She does not have the right mindset to handle Matrimonial matters in the Westchester Supreme Court
