Joseph Moro is an excellent attorney. He's knowledgeable, attentive to detail, and quick to reply. My husband and I used his legal services for my green card application process, which went very smoothly and, in my opinion, quickly. We will seek his legal help in the future.

Barre and Amy are like family. We were so thrilled to find he and Amy - and use their services through a very scary period of unknown. Barre explained everything clearly and is a great communicator. He’s the kind of person that can just to prescribe the best remedy for each situation with decades of experience— then he is there right with you to execute the plan. Well done Barre!

Jonathan Willett represented our son in a juvenile misdemeanor sexual contact case. His expertise, years of experience, and reputation helped tremendously. He is well known and well respected throughout the legal system. Jonathan presented us with several options to resolve the case, and then worked with us and the DA to come to a fair agreement. He and his legal assistant, Dan, make a great team and we would recommend them to any family going through a similar situation.

The attorney I met with during my consult kept yawning loudly and REPEATEDLY over the top of me and seemed really disinterested. I was made to feel like I was being a terrible bother. I get that it was a morning call, but if you arent going to at least pretend to care then maybe dont take my call? I scheduled the consult to see if this firm could be my advocate and the attorney I was paired with wasn't even able to fake being interested in my legal issue. I guess I can take solace in the fact that I found this out early in the process. However, the receptionist that screened me and scheduled me was super nice and helpful though

Peter Garin is an ineffective Child and Family Investigator (CFI) with an aggressive and abusive investigation style. He was court-appointed and began by interviewing my son. The initial meeting was marked by aggressive and abusive questioning. My son and his now ex-wife struggled to agree on parenting issues. Mr. Garin failed to ask probing questions, resorting instead to general inquiries. Each of his interviews lasted between 8 to 25 minutes, while he conducted a lengthy interview with the other party that lasted over 2 hours. He visited our home for only 10 minutes and then left.

Peter Garin is a terrible CFI with an aggressive and abusive investigation style. Although, I was the person who hired him, he spoke to the other party first. Instead of speaking to me about my concerns, my first meeting with him was an aggressive, abusive interrogation where he threatened me with jail time. My 13 year old son had been refusing to engage in parenting time with his father, Mr. Garin immediately blamed me and dismissed my son's mental health records and his therapist's reports of PTSD. When interviewing my son, Mr. Garin told him "it's OK for people to drink and drive as long as they are not under the influence" although we had a specific court order to not consume alcohol during parenting time. My son's father has had open containers of alcohol in his vehicle multiple times with the children in the car. Mr. Garin ignored the alcohol abuse, ignored the mental health aspect of our case, vilified my son's safe parent in his report and never investigated in a neutral way. When I checked his report for bias, using chat GPT, the entire section interviewing myself and my contacts were biased negatively and the entire section interviewing the other party and his contacts were biased positively. I do not recommend him if you are looking for a true unbiased investigation.

Looks like my review was unfairly taken down....guess this firm wants to keep my families experience hush hush. I TESTIFIED in court on behalf of my brother and the custody over my two nieces, we had two family meetings with Tyler plus I sent him a very long and lengthy email in November of 2023 that he never replied to yet charged my father $350 to read, which I don't believe he even read my email. So if this firm is trying to claim my review is not valid because I didn't hire Tyler myself they are incorrect!!! I was a part of this entire journey so for Google to take down my review after this firm reported it is not OK as I was involved with this case from beginning to end.- so here is my review again!!!! ZERO stars!!!! My father and brother hired Tyler Lambert to help my brother win his custody battle with his two young daughters. Tyler many times was very hard to get in touch with and would ignore phone calls over and over again. I kept telling my dad and brother that they needed to hire a new attorney because Tyler did not have my brothers best interest at heart. I wish they would've taken me a little more seriously however they felt they had invested so much money in him already that they stuck by him. Tyler showed no evidence in court to help my brother out... We submitted text messages, social media posts, conversations, photos of our family over the last 16 years with my brothers daughters, etc...Tyler used none of it in court. He had so much proof on my ex sister in law and how her attorney was blowing everything out of proportion plus evidence that could have made my brother's ex look really bad and prove she's a liar - but Tyler provided none of it and when they were claiming untrue statements about my brother he didn't object, not one time!!!! Tyler told all of us that were testifying on the stand that we needed to "be nice" and say "nice things" about my ex sister in law and that we should NOT provide any family photos as this judge doesn't like seeing family photos. Meanwhile the other side TRASHED my brother and they also showed a ton of photos - clearly Tyler's advice was the worst we could have taken. The end result were my nieces moving away with their mother to Illinois and pinning my brother as a bad father. He's an amazing father. He just has a bitter and scorned ex-wife that wanted to hurt him so badly that she used her own children for leverage. Do not hire Tyler if you are going through a custody battle with children... He does not care and will not show proof and documentation of what you give him to help your case out. He basically collected a paycheck and nothing more. Now my brother's daughters are in a fatherless environment because he failed to do his job properly. I WILL CONTINUE TO REPOST REVIEWS IF THIS ONE IS TAKEN DOWN - THIS EXPERIENCE WAS MY EXPERIENCE FIRSTHAND WITH TYLER!!!!!

James Cordes provided terrible advice. His drafting was sloppy and required extensive redrafting by opposing counsel, and he advised me to take a terrible deal. Because of James, I am taking home a fraction of my income. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how bad it was until firing him and employing new counsel. He is a nice man, but a bad lawyer. I wish I had gotten a second opinion before it was too late.

I hired Mariah partially because of the good reviews here. I would however caution against others doing the same. My case was very simple and she intentionally dragged things into long expensive war with my ex. She constantly battled my exes lawyer on things that didn't matter and ignored the only things I said were important. I think she ended up on the losing side of every exchange she had with my exes more experienced lawyer. She took what should have been an easy case and made it difficult and expensive and did irreparable damage to my relationship with my ex whom I am trying to remain civil with. Maybe it's simply the norm for lawyers in this field to care more about their own interests than the families that hire them but I feel like entrusting her with my case was a mistake.

First of all, I would like to state that I am somewhat familiar with lawyers. I have been in business 19 years and during the course of that time I have engaged many attorneys for mergers and acquisitions, financial counseling, legal disputes with the State of Texas, HR related matters, contract negotiations, and litigation. Having said that, I am not an expert nor a novice. In19 years, I have never worked with a legal group that is more disorganized, incompetent, and ignorant of basic financials. What is apparent with this organization is they focus on the billing more than the service. I am not one to argue fees provided there is a demonstration of competence and integrity. Unfortunately, you will not find it with this firm It would appear that the Dadvocates and Samera were once competent and respectable if you look at the reviews. However, I would encourage you to look at current reviews. Most are quite poor and this should discourage you from engaging with them. I sincerely hope that this law firm considers these reviews b/c they have fallen from grace and should seriously contemplate dismissing Samera and her team.

Cory Tuck is a top-notch Family Attorney specializing in divorce and separation. His professionalism, work ethic, moral compass, and ability to seek out alternative, positive solutions to any obstacle is truly exceptional. Cory is on your side from day one. My case involved a 2 plus year mental marathon that wouldn't have been possible, and successful, without the guidance and support of Cory and his team. Cory's personal interest, steadfast loyalty, and discipline is above reproach. Divorce sucks, and having someone like Cory on your side during the process is invaluable - mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Cory and his team successfully and routinely handled all the big and small issues that surfaced from my case, often with little on no effort on my part. If you are going through troubling times, and divorce/separation is imminent, look no further than Cory Tuck. His resume includes thousand of cases, all varying in slightly different nuances, making his breath of knowledge focused, practical, and refined. You will not be disappointed in Cory Tuck.

I had two terrible divorce lawyers before finding Cory Tuck. After having a phone interview with him, I was convinced that he is the lawyer I was always hoping to have. I hired Cory! My life and my divorce situation improved instantly. Cory is very honest, hardworking and, most importantly, gets results! He is also very professional and confident: he stands up in front of the judge and states your arguments in a logical and assertive manner. He won both of my recent cases: Contempt of Court and Motion to Modify Spousal Maintenance. Cory focuses and knows what’s important to win your case. He takes charge of the situation and avoids getting intimidated by the other party. His office staff is friendly and communicates clearly, and quickly. Cory is also a trial lawyer - this is the type of lawyer you want presenting evidence to the judge and crossing your ex on the stand. I highly recommend Cory Tuck of Aviso Law!!!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support I received from Erika and their entire team during an extremely stressful time following a bad car accident. From the very beginning, they were by my side, guiding me through every step of the legal process with patience and compassion. It wasn’t just about legal advice – they genuinely cared about my well-being and provided constant reassurance during a time when I needed it the most. Erika was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also kind, understanding, and incredibly dedicated to my case. The bond we created felt personal, and I knew I could rely on them no matter what came up. They fought hard for me, and I always felt they had my best interests at heart. Their entire team was absolutely amazing – responsive, empathetic, and supportive throughout the entire process. I am so, so grateful for their hard work and dedication.

I reached out to Alexandra White Law Firm with hopes of making our situation somehow better for all and have been quite moved at the patience and kindness each member of their team has offered me. I received clear and excellent suggestions from attorney, Krista, and I am quite grateful! This Firm offers a human relationship component to legal support that strikes me as quite rare.

She answered all my questions and was great to make sure I understood and didn't have any confusion. In a time of needing help in family matters I will let anyone that asks me that I recommend Modern Family Law!

You cannot go wrong hiring Lisa. She’s Incredibly responsive and efficient (Carrie too!). She truly understands how devastating divorce can be and I always felt like she was looking out for my best interest. She was always professional (even in challenging situations) and made sure all my bases were covered. Hire her. You won’t regret it.

I highly recommend Knies, Helland & McPherson. Jenni (Helland) did an amazing job. My ex and her attorney were very antagonistic, liked to draw out the process, and did everything they could to drive up legal fees. Jenni was great in understanding what was happening and the likely outcomes or consequences. She avoided emotional arguments, and instead made sound legal ones. More importantly, she advised me when I was making an emotional decision and gave recommendations on what actions I could take that would be legally successful. Having someone in your corner that was willing to tell you what you needed to hear, instead of what you wanted to hear saved me thousands of dollars. This is not a law firm that will needlessly drive up costs. For example, I was never charged for attorneys fees for anyone Jenni may have consulted with (this is a frequent tactic of less reputable law firms). I was never given a weekly 'update' that created billing hours even if nothing was happening in the case. Jenni never had me make needless discovery requests, subpoenas or motions that are typical and drive up costs. I had a more experienced and higher hourly rate attorney than my ex, but my ex's legal fees were 30% higher because of all the shenanigans they played. Jenni will give you the legal experience you need without driving up costs.

KLM is the place to go hands down if you want to come out a WINNER!!!!! Review for Kelly McPherson & Stephanie Steiner❤️❤️❤️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a very challenging case, and after firing my previous lawyer who did nothing but take my money.A friend referred me to Kelly.I called & she got me in.She stepped in and completely turned things around as messed up as they were & as hysterical & crying as I was she immediately calmed me down & reassured me she would do her best to make things right.She had to go back and fix everything that the previous lawyer had supposedly done, and she did it with skill and dedication. She is an amazing attorney, and I would recommend her and Stephanie to anyone who needs someone who genuinely works for them—not for themselves. Kelly & Stephanie are hard-working, down-to-earth, and always straight to the point. No BS. From the very beginning, I could tell she had my best interests at heart. She’s not just about making empty promises—she delivers results. Her communication is excellent, and she always made me feel heard and valued. I never once felt like I was in the dark during the process, and she consistently reassured me with her level-headed, professional approach.Communication was great.Always returned emails in a timely matter & Stephanie was great about helping with paperwork & returning emails & anything that needed to be addressed.I was never left in the dark.These ladies were wonderful & I thank them from the bottom of my heart. In the courtroom, she’s a force—well-prepared and incredibly professional. Plus, her office is comfortable and welcoming, which made it easier to sit down and discuss difficult topics. If you’re looking for a divorce lawyer who truly works for you, cares about your family, and won’t waste your time or money, I highly recommend Kelly McPherson and Stephanie Steiner.They’re exactly the kind of legal team you want in your corner. BEST LEGAL TEAM OUT THERE!!!

Working with Linda was incredible. I was at such a vulnerable place in my separation, and Linda made this so much easier. Obviously, no one wants to get divorced, and I was particularly shocked and emotional throughout the process. The most remarkable quality Linda had was just making me feel validated. She listened to me, was comforting to me, gave realistic solutions, and treated me with such kindness and empathy. She would take the time to ask about my daughter, my friends, my job, just because she cared and genuinely wanted the best for me. I’ll never forget how touched that made me feel, and is something I would never expect of an attorney. But she was more than a lawyer to me - instead a guiding force. I appreciate how she treated me like a person first - a friend, even, and how that made me feel more level headed to take on the divorce process with gusto. Additionally, Linda was professional and fantastic at her job. She kept cost considerations in mind the entire time which was extra nice. Linda was always professional, had knowledge of the legal system that opposing counsel didn’t even seem to have, and always spoke honestly with me. She found solutions, got creative with me, and had my back through many frustrating situations in the divorce process. I would absolutely recommend Linda to anyone getting divorced. For me, it helped that she wasn’t dissimilar to me - friendly, young, a motivator for other women, and at times even funny. :) She made the legal system accessible for me: someone who had never thought she would be in this situation. The world needs more Lindas! :)

Linda was wonderful to work with, very professional, and informative. Her work ethic proved to be a great help in my case. She was always fast to reply, and never left anything hanging. Even when she went on vacation, she kept me up-to-date with information. I definitely recommend her to anyone dealing with a family law case. I had a consultation meeting with her prior to hiring her, and I learned that she was going to be the right lawyer for me, but she was dedicated to the task and wouldn’t let me down.

She was always communicative, organized, calm, kind, and exceedingly knowledgeable. I can’t say enough wonderful things about how pleasant my experience has been with Linda and Alyssa, despite the frustrating situation that evolved with my ex-spouse. Many thanks to both of you for helping me navigate what turned out to be a more complicated and stressful process that I originally anticipated when I filed.

I had the pleasure of working with Sahar during a very challenging time. My ex-wife was demanding everything and completely unwilling to budge, while I just wanted to end things and move on. Sahar was incredibly patient and understanding, guiding me through the process while ensuring I was protected. She genuinely cared about my situation and was determined to make sure I received a fair settlement, even when it seemed like I wasn’t getting enough. Her strategic ideas were sharp, and she was honest every step of the way, always making sure I was comfortable with the decisions being made. Sahar made herself available whenever I needed her and was flexible to work around my schedule. If you're looking for a lawyer who truly cares and puts your interests first, I can't recommend Sahar enough.

Living in a small mountain town, I required a strong, knowledgeable female expert in divorce law. This is Sahar. From the start, Sahar had a clear understanding of how to advocate and protect me and my children from a difficult situation connected to alcohol addiction. She lawfully navigated these hard issues with empathy, efficiency, professionalism, and expertise. Additionally, Sahar provided me with outstanding consultation around child support and the options the state provides to ensure that my children receive the financial support the court ordered. Overall, Sahar is exceptional in both representation and consultation.

We have worked with Miranda Bouchey and can highly highly recommend her. She genuinely cares about our family and works incredibly hard on our case. She can understand the pain and tension we feel as parents as we deal with an ex and can also understand how our situation impacts our kids. She has made herself available to us; previous lawyers we have worked with were very hard to get a hold of, leaving us feeling abandoned at key times. Miranda is the total opposite. She prioritizes us when we need it, responds quickly to emails and makes herself available for phone consultations. We have felt so supported by her. She is also incredibly smart and competent. She knows the law and how to apply it to our situation. She is on top of every deadline and produces high quality work. She has calmly and expertly walked us through a situation we never wanted to be in. When you are walking down these terrible, messy and murky paths, you want Miranda by your side.

Miranda was amazing! I knew I had an uphill battle going into our case since I wasn’t the primary care taker and my ex wife wanted to relocate with our son. I knew that I also had a lot going for me since I have always been there and have provided for my son since his birth as well. Miranda took my case on short notice and short preparation, but got up to speed quicker than I anticipated. She gave me the best possible legal advice (the to-do’s and not to-do’s) the entire 5-6 months she worked with me. When it came down to actually going to court, she guided and prepared me on exactly what was going to happen before even getting into the courtroom, so all I had to do was remember and execute what she told me to do. She was already in the courthouse before I arrive at the courthouse (which I’m always early) and I really appreciated that. She was attentive in the courtroom and honed in on what was important to the judge’s decision making. She won my case for me because she’s an amazing attorney and knew what to say and what not to say. I will be forever grateful for Miranda and her talent as an attorney! I hope I never have to go through this again, but she will be the first call I make if I ever need to. Thank you Miranda! You’re truly a blessing!

I hired Brooke after having two other attorneys. Brooke is extremely knowledgeable about family law and absolutely tenacious in pursuit of the best interest of the children and me. She is incredibly insightful as to the reality of what is going on in my case. She reads between the lines and is right on the money. She is quick, smart and incredibly talented. Brooke is one part of a team. The office of Alexander and Ewert is an amazing duo. These two offset each other perfectly. Might possibly be the best team in town. Hire Brooke and get her what she needs then sit back and let her do what she does, because she is amazing at it. She will hold the OP feet to the fire, diligently reads everything and follows up with the OP. A+ attorney PS I would not want my ex to have Brooke as her lawyer.

I foolish had signed a postnuptial that could have ruined me financially. I had consulted with another lawyer and was told there was nothing that could be done. I was absolutely devastated!! I then met with Andy later that day. He looked over the postnuptial and found so many loop holes. I knew I had found the lawyer I needed for my divorce. He is so incredibly knowledgeable, competent, trustworthy, takes the high road on issues. Even though he has been a lawyer for 23 years, he still has that intense drive and dedication to make things right for his clients. Andy didn't make me feel like a fool for signing this awful postnuptial. There was a lot of intense emotions I had and he was kind and thoughtful in his responses to me. His goal was to save me financially and that's exactly what he did. Andy, you have the utmost respect from me.

I highly recommend hiring Andy as your divorce and family attorney. Not only was Andy responsive to my case needs but he was/is, extremely competent and he has several years in practicing divorce and family law; a definite benefit for any case. His experience and years of practice was crucial to many aspects of my divorce. I knew I was in good hands at each and every turn of my case and I was thankful I had Andy on my side to support me through the tumultuous process. I sincerely appreciated his service and care in addressing the separation of assets and sticky situations that arose around children. He didn't spend time (my money) on unnecessary tasks or documentation. Going through divorce is difficult especially when children are involved and the professionalism, responsiveness, preparation and good counsel that Andy offers is invaluable. Due to the emotional state that divorce burdens one with, it’s easy to back down and not get what you want/deserve; Andy’s experience and law knowledge enabled my case to move quickly and effectively with a desired outcome. I have high regard for Andy. He walked me through every step of the long and time-consuming process with good counsel. I will absolutely use Andy again; however, I’ll never get married again - Happily divorced thanks to Andy!

When I found myself in need of an attorney for family court, I was fortunate to have discovered her services. In my humble opinion, she is not only the best choice but also an exceptional advocate for anyone navigating the complexities of family law. Going into family court as a father seeking custody of my child was a daunting experience, especially since I had never set foot in a courtroom or retained an attorney before. Her expertise, patience, and remarkable communication skills played a pivotal role in alleviating my stress and helping me comprehend the intricacies of the APR and custody process. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, my court battle extended over a grueling 1.5 years. Throughout this time, she never once left me in the dark. Thanks to her unwavering support, guidance, and tireless efforts, I ultimately achieved full custody and decision-making rights for my child. Knowing that my child would be out of harm's way and that court orders would ensure their safety was the best possible outcome I could have hoped for. Family court can be an unpredictable and emotionally draining experience, but with Oliva by my side, I always had a sense of security. Her unwavering preparedness and commitment to my case assured me that she would fight tirelessly on my behalf. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I am with her skill, dedication, and extensive knowledge of family law. She made an immeasurable difference in my life, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a family court attorney.

I don't have the words to express my gratitude for Olivia Larson and all she has done for my family. My case was extremely complicated as it had both civil and criminal accusations. I knew I was innocent and the accusations against me were an attempt to muddy the water and gain an advantage in the civil case. With Olivia's help, I was able to win against the criminal accusations and hold my accusers accountable. The civil case lasted over a year due to Covid and court procedure. When I first hired Olivia she was with a firm that I won't name, but after a few months she chose to leave that firm and start her own. I asked her to stay on as my lawyer and she thankfully agreed. Olivia is extremely knowledgeable, dedicated to her clients, patient and of the highest character.

What a Child Custody Lawyer Can Do for You

A child custody lawyer specializes in helping parents navigate legal matters related to the custody and care of their children, particularly in the context of divorce, separation, or other family disputes. These lawyers assist with determining custody arrangements, drafting parenting plans, and advocating for your rights in court. They also help resolve disputes over physical custody (where the child lives), legal custody (who makes decisions for the child), visitation rights, and modifications to existing custody orders.

Whether you're going through a divorce or need to change an existing custody arrangement, a child custody lawyer can help you understand your rights and protect your child's best interests throughout the legal process.

When Should I Hire a Child Custody Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a child custody lawyer in several situations, especially when disputes arise or complex legal issues affect your parental rights. Some common reasons to hire a child custody lawyer include:
