After my marriage 3 months ago, I applied for a home loan, so that I and my wife could move to a better apartment, but I got a negative reply, which I was told was a result of my credit score. When I pulled my score it was below average. I had $12,000 student loan, some credit card debt, charge off and an eviction. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST helped me erase all the above negative reports and boosted my score to excellent in less than 6 days. I’m recommending them to any one in need of credit assistance.

Tripp was exactly the lawyer we needed, when we needed him. The contractors on my home ripped me off, walked off the job, did a flawed job of what was completed, needless to say they did not complete the entire job. To top things off, the contractors filed a lien on my house. There were several twists and turns throughout the case. Just before trail, I went into the hospital with no direct contact/planning from Tripp. Tripp was still prepared anyway despite being limited in the decisions he could make. Within the last two days of court, the contractors brought in a new hot shot attorney from out of state. The new attorney disregarded the discovery process since he was not involved. My first expert witness was promptly dismissed. The court went into continuance. Tripp managed get to the testimony from my first expert witness anyway. In the end, the judge dismissed the contractor's case and granted me a judgement. A two-attorney team did not have skill nor court room presence to defeat Tripp’s preparation, presentation and court room presence. I have only hired a few attorneys who all have done some great things for me. Tripp is the top of the list.

All of these are things that you look for in an attorney. Tripp Estes possesses all of these traits and more. Look no further!
My husband and I made the difficult decision to let go of our attorney 2 weeks before our custody trial. We stumbled upon Tripp online and made the choice to hire him. It was the best decision we could have ever made. Tripp was the light at the end of our tunnel. Our only regret is that we didn't hire him from the very beginning.
Honesty: Our case was a very complicated one and Tripp accepted the daunting task! From the very beginning he was honest with us. There are quite a few attorneys that make a practice of giving you false hope, only to leave you distraught and completely blind-sighted with the judges verdict. Tripp is not one of these attorneys. He is going to be up front with you. You will know where you stand at all time.
He is a family man. This is very important if you want someone to fight for your family's rights. You want someone who has great morals and one who is compassionate.
Tripp is dedicated. He worked around the clock to get caught up on our case and prepare for trial.
In court Tripp was very detail oriented and organized. He knows the law and is very well respected and known in NWA.
From the very beginning until even after trial, Tripp was in constant communication. He was always able to be reached via email or phone. We even had a few incidents in which Tripp took the time to contact us over the weekend. Some attorneys will make you feel like you are completely in the dark. Tripp will never do this.
Needless to say, we were granted everything we fought for in court. Because of Tripp my husband and I are able to rest easy We won in court and so will you if you choose to hire a professional, competent attorney, such as Tripp Estes! I am confident that if you make the right choice to hire Tripp to fight for you and your family's rights he will do everything within his power to do so.
More times than not the verdict made in court will alter your life forever. This is why it is so very important to hire someone like Tripp. Do NOT make the mistake we made by waiting to hire Tripp. Make the right choice. You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Tripp! You are truly a lifesaver!

Caroline is one of the best attorneys I have had the pleasure of meeting. She made a fantastic visitation schedule for my ex-wife that had my stepson's best interest at heart. She cared deeply about our case and I can tell she cares greatly about all of her cases. She is extremely intelligent and if she doesn't know the answer, she will find it through research and hard work. I am about to use Caroline again for another case I have and will continue to do so for all of my legal needs in the future. Thank you Caroline, you are incredible!

I would have been better off ordering a DIY mediation kit. Kim lost control of my ex and our mediation from the very get go, which eventually took three rounds. Tony was nice, but unreliable and needless. Additionally, if I had taken their advice I would be out several $100k. Look elsewhere, you should expect better.

Molly Lucas’ expertise and professionalism guided me through a difficult, painful process to the most positive outcome possible. The well-being and best interests of her clients are unquestionably her top priority. The genuine empathy & patient assistance of staff members Cody & Mike were invaluable throughout the entire journey. Their combined professionalism, knowledge, skill and compassion in dealing with clients under extreme duress have earned my admiration and gratitude. They carried the entire load of the case, which I am grateful for as they were far more equipped to do so. They also took the time to explain each and every step for me. Lucas Law has earned my highest recommendation.

I contacted Ms. Hazelwood when my ex-husband had me served with a motion which would have required me to put my six year old son on a plane by himself to Kazakhstan to visit his father each summer. Ms. Keisha Hazelwood did not hesitate to represent me. Ultimately the judge ruled in our favor thanks to her unwavering support and expertise. My son is now safe from international travel and his father can visit when he is in the U.S. I cannot thank Ms. Hazelwood enough for giving my life peace again with the knowledge my son will remain safely within U.S. borders. I would recommend the OMG Law Firm and specifically Ms. Hazelwood for any family law issues.

I needed a legal detailed agreement document created by an attorney. I chose Lance and his staff honestly because of looking up attorney reviews online and read nothing but good things. I was helped quickly to get started and all my questions and concerns were addressed in a timely fashion. As things were moving along, I needed to make changes and, they were quick to help me out. Every time I came into their office Lance would come out of his office to greet me. Lance, Stephani, and McKenna (also the front desk) were very easy to work with and I highly recommend them. My legal documents were completed and I will use them again if the need arises.

I will recommend Sue Ann to anyone in a tough custody battle. She is knowledgeable, responsive, & quick to action where needed. She won’t oversell & under deliver. She was worth every penny & hopefully I won’t have to but I would choose her time & time again. I know how overwhelming & scary these situations can be but Sue Ann will bring you & your family peace after a long hard road.

It’s never for a good reason to have to retain a lawyer. However, I am so thankful that I reached out to Sue Ann to handle my personal matters. She was excellent at explaining process and removing uncertainty with a complex situation. I loved 2 things the most about my experience; 1.) Sue Ann always being reasonably available and very quick at responding over email to any questions I had. 2.) Brandy, an amazing and capable assistant that explained so many details in between emails and conversations with Sue Ann. Highly recommend this firm.

In searching for an attorney for my uncontested divorce, I wanted to find one that would ensure that I would be represented well but also would keep the process civil. Robin understood that from the beginning. She listened to my wants and needs and took over from there. I can't possibly imagine the process going any smoother. She helped me finish the last chapter of my life and start the next one, and she made it all look easy. Highly recommend for an uncontested divorce!

Robin was absolutely amazing. She took the extra time working on my case when she didn’t have to, she went the extra mile to make sure all my questions were met, responded in a timely manner, always gave me her honest opinion, sat down and related to my situation, calmed me down when I was feeling frustrated or overwhelmed, I always saw her best effort. I wouldn’t recommend using any other attorney. She’s seriously the best attorney I could’ve asked for.

My case took a year & a half but she kept fighting til we got the win. Robin was a teddy bear to me & a beast in court. I could tell she cared a lot about my daughter & was looking out for me. I was charged a flat rate & she never changed the price or charged me more.
I only saw her get bitchy when someone was acting out. i think she's great.

My case has involved many years, multiple states, and multiple court interventions. Trey has always answered my calls, text, or emails. I have NEVER had to wait for him. I NEVER had a question that didn't get answered quickly. There was even times that I literally asked the same question probably 10 times, and every time, Trey took his time and explained things to me until I understood it completely.
There isnt one thing I would change in how he handles his cases and clients. He honestly cares about you and your family, while most lawyers just care about the money.
I have hired Trey multiple times, and if I ever need another lawyer, I wont hesitate to call him again.

Hired Mr. Wright for a divorce and custody case filed against me in the state even though I’m active duty and am not living in Arkansas. Mr. Wright was fantastic, he answered every question I had and he got my case dismissed, rightfully so. He is very knowledgeable even when it comes to active duty military and their rights and laws. If you want a reasonable and winning attorney Mr. Wright is the guy. I 100% recommend.

Trey is an honest and hard working attorney. He will tell you exactly what he thinks and if you have a good case or not before taking anything more than a consult fee. He knows the law and he is not afraid to show some teeth if needed. We had a nasty custody battled and he was with us every step of the way. We won our case without ever having to go to court (a Dad got custody in Arkansas I know shocking but that is how great he is!). He pays attention to details and is always available to answer questions. His staff are very professional and nice as well. He is worth EVERY PENNY.

Jon Johnson is the most caring and professional attorney I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He goes above and beyond the call of duty to get the outcome his clients deserve. I will never call another attorney first. I recommend him to everyone I know. His secretary is the sweetest and most intelligent woman ever., She knows the ins and outs of every case to assist you as much as possible,so if she suggests something you might want to listen.

I would highly recommend him as a defense attorney to anyone who finds themselves in the very unfortunate position of needing help. Jason is your man. Thank you, Jason, for everything you did to help me! This man goes above and beyond.

My husband paid an upfront deposit for the services of Zachary Sellers in relation to a check garnishment issue. That was 2 months ago and we have heard nothing from our lawyer except a receipt showing that he charged us for mailing a document or some such thing. When we try to call his office we have never got an answer and his voicemail is so full that we are unable to leave messages. He has only responded to one email and this was over a month after we first reserved his services. He told us he was just now getting to negotiations with the creditor for us. So, for over two months, we have had no updates and no results whatsoever. We are at a loss as to how to contact him or get a hold of him because we do not live in the Fayetteville area. But I believe we are going to have to make a trip over to that area and walk in just to get somebody to talk to us. I most definitely will not be recommending this law firm to anyone that I know. It’s so disheartening and it feels like we are being taken advantage of. It’s very unprofessional. If things were to change in our situation than I would update my review to reflect that.

DO NOT USE THIS LAW FIRM. They have refused to answer emails and phone calls. They were hired over 2 years ago for a family custody battle and there has not been one single court date setup. This is absolutely heart wrenching when you put your faith and all your finances into someone that you should be able to trust to put your children's needs above all else. There has not been one single thing done on this case. I hope I can help save someone else from having to go through this horrific situation. This law firm should be absolutely ashamed and embarrassed by their actions or lack there of. Do not give a family your word and then just scam them out of money and watch them suffer. Absolutely appalling.

She’s representing a very dangerous, abusive man, and has a allowed him to keep the child, even after realizing, or maybe already knowing before working for him that he has abused the child and mentally unstable when it comes to the best interest of children this woman can be bought. She should not be in child custody law, nor should she ever have her license, if something happens to this child, while having evidence and knowledge of a severe chance of the child, being harmed or killed. It is very vital that people know that she is representing an abuser and helping him due to receiving any amount of money needed. This woman is not to be trusted, and should not have anything to do with child custody. After this matter of a case you should never remove a child. If you know harm could be done to them by a person and you should always get fax before removing a child and putting them in harm I highly recommend removing her off the women’s rights for lawyers. This woman is a monster and something should be done.

Communication is on point job well done! Represented me on a case before my child custody lawyer had retired and went to Victoria for help she was very upfront and honest about everything . Was able to accomplish what I have been fighting for. I am very thankful. Very professional. Victoria and her assistant were there to answer any questions and give good advice. Without any doubts I would recommend and hire in a heartbeat!

Mrs. Bruton is an excellent attorney. She represented me in my divorce. She is professional, and kind, laced with the fighting spirit that you want your attorney to have. She was always there when I reached out with any question or situation that arose, and she knows the laws of Arkansas inside and out. She is a no nonsense type of attorney that will go to the mat for you. She won my case. I highly recommend, Victoria.

After my marriage 3 months ago, I applied for a home loan, so that I and my wife could move to a better apartment, but I got a negative reply, which I was told was a result of my credit score. When I pulled my score it was below average. I had $12,000 student loan, some credit card debt, charge off and an eviction. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST helped me erase all the above negative reports and boosted my score to excellent in less than 6 days. I’m recommending them to any one in need of credit assistance.

Buffy always got back with us if we had any questions. She's very understanding and works hard to take care of your needs. Me and my wife had to take my ex back to court to get some things changed up with the custody of my children. I couldn't be more happier with the results. She worked on a payment plan for me and my wife. And she worked her tail off. If you need a good understanding caring attorney please call this woman. She was a blessing to my family.

Mr. McBride lies and if you don't have an attorney he writes an order and puts things in the order that the judge did not say and does this not for the best interest of the children but does it because his client benefits from it and actually is not in the best interests of the children. He has a reputation within the lawyer community as playing dirty and I have been told this by 7 attorneys/law firms. And it's about to get him into some serious trouble legally and his clients will be getting in trouble too cause the client knows what he does and let's it happen. So I'd think twice before hiring this guy especially if you value your children and want what is best for them, McBride is not what you want.

Stefan is REAL. He's not just another lawyer looking to resolve a pile of cases and get paid. I knew when I first spoke to him that he was truly different. He's the kind of counselor you want in your corner to guide you through one of the most difficult times of your and your family's lives, not only because of his exceptional knowledge of law but just as importantly his integrity and real compassion he shows every step of the way. The most important aspect for me personally was the fact he had a Masters from seminary school prior to entering law and his "service" attitude came shining through! No matter your convictions or needs, he will go above and beyond with the utmost respect for your situation.

What a Child Support Lawyer Can Do for You
A child support lawyer specializes in legal issues related to the financial support that one parent provides to another for the upbringing of their children. These lawyers assist with establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders, ensuring that the financial needs of the child are met, including housing, food, healthcare, education, and other essentials. A child support lawyer can also represent parents in disputes over the amount of support, ensure fair calculations based on income, and handle legal proceedings if one parent fails to meet their obligations.
Whether you're seeking to establish child support, modify an existing order, or enforce payments, a child support lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
When Should I Hire a Child Support Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child support lawyer when you need assistance with any of the following child support matters:
- Establishing child support: If you are going through a divorce or separation and need to establish a child support order, a lawyer can help ensure that the support amount is fair and accurately calculated.
- Modifying child support orders: If there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, income change, or a child's financial needs, a lawyer can help you request a modification to the existing child support order.
- Enforcing child support payments: If the other parent has failed to make court-ordered child support payments, a lawyer can help enforce the order through legal means such as wage garnishment, property liens, or even legal action.
- Disputing child support calculations: If you believe the child support amount has been incorrectly calculated based on your income or expenses, a lawyer can help you challenge the calculation and seek a fair adjustment.
- Paternity disputes: If paternity needs to be established before child support can be ordered, a lawyer can assist with DNA testing and legal proceedings.
- Interstate child support cases: If the parents live in different states, navigating child support laws can be complex. A lawyer can help ensure the proper jurisdiction is established and that child support is enforced across state lines.
- Child support during custody disputes: If child custody and child support are being determined simultaneously, a lawyer can help ensure that both issues are resolved fairly and in the best interest of the child.
Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your child support case is handled effectively and that your child's financial needs are met.
What Does a Child Support Lawyer Do?
A child support lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents secure, modify, and enforce child support arrangements. Their responsibilities often include:
- Filing for child support: A lawyer can help you initiate the legal process to obtain a child support order, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted and deadlines are met.
- Calculating child support: A lawyer can help ensure that child support is calculated fairly based on both parents' incomes, the needs of the child, and other factors such as healthcare and education costs.
- Negotiating child support agreements: If both parents are willing to negotiate, a lawyer can help facilitate an agreement on child support outside of court, which can then be approved by a judge.
- Representing you in court: If negotiations fail or the other parent contests the child support amount, a lawyer will represent you in family court, presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Modifying support orders: A lawyer can help you file a request for modification if circumstances change, such as a loss of income or an increase in the child’s financial needs.
- Enforcing child support: If the other parent is not making court-ordered payments, a lawyer can take legal steps to enforce the order through wage garnishment, property liens, or other measures.
- Handling complex cases: In cases involving high incomes, self-employment, or complicated financial situations, a lawyer can help ensure that all relevant factors are considered in determining child support.
How Are Child Support Lawyers Paid?
Child support lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Most child support lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. The total cost will depend on how much time the lawyer spends on your case, including preparation, negotiations, and court appearances.
- Flat fee: For more straightforward cases, such as uncontested child support agreements or basic modifications, some lawyers may offer a flat fee that covers all services related to the case.
- Retainer: Many lawyers require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount of the retainer depends on the expected complexity of the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or provide pro bono (free) services in cases where clients cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially when children’s needs are at stake.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are covered.
How Much Does a Child Support Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a child support lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Uncontested child support cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and the lawyer’s fees.
- Contested child support cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, especially if the case involves significant court time.
- Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour for child support cases, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases that involve complex financial issues.
- Modification or enforcement: Fees for modifying or enforcing a child support order may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity and the need for court intervention.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.
Top Questions to Ask a Child Support Lawyer
Before hiring a child support lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child support cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges you may face. -
How long will the process take?
Child support cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors may cause delays. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What documents should I prepare?
Ask the lawyer what financial documents and other information you should bring to help them calculate child support and build your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Support Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child support lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and have successfully handled child support cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on child support matters.
- Check for certifications: Some lawyers may have certifications in family law or membership in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), which can indicate their expertise in child support and family law issues.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a child support lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Income documents: Bring pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s, or any other documentation of your income and the other parent’s income, as this will be used to calculate child support.
- Existing child support orders: If there are any existing child support or custody orders, bring copies for the lawyer to review.
- Child-related expenses: Provide documentation of your child’s medical bills, education expenses, daycare costs, and any other expenses that should be factored into the child support calculation.
- Communication with the other parent: Bring any communication between you and the other parent regarding child support, whether through emails, text messages, or written agreements.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer’s fees.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
