Having been on the receiving end of an ugly divorce I am forever grateful for Amber Guymon and for the professional "I won't stoop to your level" way she handled my case. Divorcing a narcissist is not an easy task. Ms. Guymon refused to allow myself or herself to engage in the meaningless banter and threats my ex chose to throw at us and at the courts. His constant complaining and refusal to accept that he must follow the law like everyone else was both exhausting and time consuming. Through it all Ms. Guymon remained positive, focused and went above and beyond my expectations to bring a solid resolution to our divorce, much to the dismay of my previous husband. I found her services to be much more valuable than the rate she charges, never once feeling like my best interest wasn't her top priority. Finding a lawyer that knows the law, practices it with high standards and won't bow down to those who try to bully their way through the system was both refreshing and a blessing. If you are looking for a lawyer to protect and stand up for your rights, I highly recommend you take the time to meet with Amber Guymon and her office staff. I'm glad I did!

Ms Guymon was recommended by common friend as a good family lawyer. She was my divorce attorney. However, upon hiring her I noticed her tendency of making threats saying quote “if you do not do this the judge will order you to pay your wife trial legal fees”. I am a post university graduate and I start studying the family law. I discovered that it was a lie and her threat qualified her as lying.
Majority of my emails, text messages and voice mails were not returned and she responded on only she was interested or wanted, avoiding to answer my questions. The invoices and statements were more frequent than her answers to my questions.
Due to the divorce I was in I had to surrender a settlement lawsuit check that was supposed to be split 50/50 with my ex. At one point, without my permission, Ms Guymon started to pay herself legal fees from that check that was deposited in her trust fund. My email sent to her got no response and when I confronted her first time she said that was a misunderstanding…After being caught by the opposed attorney trying to take the money, she called that attorney “stupid” via text message.
Ms Guymon failed to file documents with the court, causing me to pay thousands of dollars in family support, stress and anxiety. To make things worse two weeks prior to my divorce trial, she quit my case justifying a break in relationship, communication and because I was $500 late in legal fees I owed her. She also tried to take control of the proceeds from selling my house. Once I refused, she filed to withdraw from the case.
She is a rookie attorney that is driven by making money and finding the easiest way for her and not for clients.
The lowest rating I could give her it was 1 star. “0” It was more appropriate…
I will not recommend her and I would look for an experienced and ethical lawyer who charges more, but it will serve and protect your interests.

Ms. Guymon went beyond my expectations. She represented me in a high conflict divorce matter. She paid close attention to detail prior to the hearing, collecting all of the facts and knowing the Law. She was always prompt with her return phone calls and was great at making sure I understood the process of going to a hearing.
She was outstanding in the courtroom! She knew her stuff and was on top of her game. I was very impressed!

I am so pleased with my attorney, Amber Guymon. I have very limited experience with attorneys, all of which have been pleasant. This time needing an attorney was very hard for me and I was worried I would be uncomfortable. Ms. Guymon is the utmost professional. She put me at ease, answered all my questions and is very expediant with timely issues. I was amazed that Ms. Guymon was available every time I had a question, and if I called, my call was returned within the day. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone.

I always believed that bankruptcy was the last resort and meant failure. After exhausting every option, using all my savings and retirement, I was still faced with bankruptcy. Amber was compassionate, informative and knowledgable. She expertly guided me thru the bankruptcy process and made the experience as painless as possible. I learned that had I contacted her sooner, I may have been able to save my retirement and even my house. My advice is to seek counsel immediately. Check out every option and choose Amber to represent you.

I have been very pleased with Amber. She was recommended by a friend and I have not been disappointed. She took my brother's case without hesitation and was at his hearing with only a couple of days notice. She has kept me informed of any new information that arises regarding the case. She has even helped with a financial plan that has made her services affordable to us. I would hire her again.

Amber was amazing and helped me in a very difficult time in my life. She was always there for me for advice and to answer any questions I had. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a great lawyer. Her price is very reasonable and affordable as I am a teacher and make next to nothing. I hope I will never need a lawyer again, but if I do I would not hesitate to call. Thank you so much Amber.

While Amber got our BK late after we finally decided we had better hire an attorney she did what I thought was a very good job. Although the Trustee who has handle our case has been very difficult to work with. We have given him all the information he has asked for but keeps coming back requesting information we have given him already. Amber I know is frustrated about this but I feel she has been a little off the game in the fact I think she should take him to task for dragging his feet. We filed last July & we still have not gotten a sign off yet. We just want to get this thing over.

Unfortunately there are times when one is in need of a good lawyer. After discussing my case with several lawyers, I was eager to have Amber work my son’s case. I came to Amber 6 months ago never having a need for counsel before. Right from the very beginning Amber made us feel important and was very adamant about getting to know us and our son, especially our son, as he was the one needing counsel. Amber kept us informed every step of the way. Amber is a results orientated lawyer that was eager to work for my son. She was always quick to respond to any and all our questions and concerns. I would emphatically recommend Amber to anyone in need of legal Counsel. Definitely a trusted legal advisor.

Amber is an honest lawyer with an excellent "nack" for this profession. Amber is always professional and well prepared. She has helped me on and off over the past 7 years. Initially with my divorce, then with modifying my visitation with my daughter, which resulted in me getting more time with my daughter. She did a great job in preparing me for the courtroom experience. I just sat back and watched her work. She had my Lawyer Ex-wife wishing she had a "Twix" candy bar. Yep, she just wanted to "get away"! If you truely want to be in good hands, forget Allstate, get Amber on your side!!
