Timothy Allan McCan II (TJ) is an excellent Attorney. He worked with me very closely, explaining everything to me, made it easier to understand what was happening or going to be happening. I was not happy with my first Attorney and TJ was recommended to me. I called him and explained my situation. I had a very comfortable and positive feeling after speaking to him. I called him the next day and stated I wanted him to represent me in my divorce. I am very happy with the outcome and he did me good.

The Miller Law is what all family law offices should be measured by. The level of professionalism, confidence, leadership, aggressiveness, knowledge, experience and caring like what I have received from Miller Law Firm is unsurpassed. Jeff, Sander and Lisa were totally understanding and not pushy and did everything on my terms. I felt relaxed and knew everything was taken care of by the best. Day or night they were there for me, constantly available to me by way of email or phone call. I never felt I was just another client or forgotten about. My case wasn’t easy, nor was I easy to deal with. Through numerous financial paperwork modifications, questions and revisions the staff was calm and all my issues were easily rectified. I thank God I chose this law firm. And special thanks to Sander, Jeff and Lisa at Miller Law for getting my Life back together.

Stacey is more than just an attorney; she's a beacon of clarity and support during what was undoubtedly one of the most challenging periods of my life. From the moment I stepped into her office, her professionalism and empathy were immediately evident. Throughout the entire process, Stacey demonstrated unparalleled dedication and expertise. She didn't just navigate me through the chaos; she led with unwavering confidence, providing me with clear direction and setting realistic expectations every step of the way. What truly sets Stacey apart is her meticulous preparation. She was always steps ahead, having everything meticulously organized long before opposing counsel even had a chance to catch up. Her attention to detail and proactive approach ensured that I felt secure and informed throughout the entire legal ordeal. Moreover, Stacey's integrity shines through in her billing practices. In an industry where transparency can be scarce, Stacey was refreshingly fair and considerate. She valued my time and resources, going above and beyond to ensure that I felt comfortable with every aspect of our arrangement. Stacey is not just respected; she's revered in her field for her intelligence, integrity, and compassion. She understands that it's not about being the loudest voice in the room but rather about being the most strategic and effective advocate for her clients' needs. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Stacey to anyone seeking legal representation. With her by your side, you're not just getting an attorney; you're gaining a trusted ally who will fight tirelessly on your behalf. Stacey, thank you for being the guiding light in my darkest hour.

I was lost before I found Ms. Puro.

She gave me strength during such a hard time dealing with my divorce and she fought for me as much as she could. She never steered me wrong and I felt so comfortable with her because she was always honest with me. If you are a looking for an attorney that will be there for you and fight til the end with you this to make sure you are not taken advantage of well not need to look anymore because Ashley Puro is the only attorney you’ll need.

After mistakenly hiring a different attorney who was not detailed, hard to get in touch with and was never to the point- I changed to Helen Costa and her team. What a difference. I’m so grateful and know I’m in the right hands. Details count. I would encourage others to know they don’t have to stay with an attorney who is not delivering.

If you're looking for someone who will serve you with honest guidance all the while providing you with options to find creative solutions for your case - I highly recommend you give Costa & Associates the chance to show you what they can do. Ms. Costa was my attorney through an extremely tumultuous case. I walked in a complete novice to the legal field and rather than take advantage of someone's pockets, Ms. Costa walked me through what to expect from beginning to end - she did not disappoint! Oftentimes, during holidays and after hours, Ms. Costa was available to support in urgencies - very rare to see now-a-days but an example to me of how committed she was to seeing me through. Our opposition was tough but we proved to be thoroughly prepared each time. The office is also a great team of professionals who take each case as their own and place a high sense of urgency to even the smallest gesture. I'd trust Costa & Associates again. Thank you Helen and team!

My experience with Cindy Vova and her legal team has been a life-changing one and choosing Cindy to represent me in one of the hardest moments of my life, was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only is Cindy, Vicki, and Jaclyn a pleasure to work with, but they all genuinely care about you as a client and have gone above and beyond the call of duty. Most lawyers are very transactional, not with Cindy. If you’re looking for someone with the expertise, the technical chops, someone who operates with high integrity, the embodiment of professionalism, and overall someone you can trust to champion for you in one of the darkest times of your life, you better call Cindy Vova and don’t bother looking elsewhere. Not only will Cindy get the job done, but she’ll get the job done right, and done right properly, no shortcuts, and she will educate and empower you along the way. She is not shy with offering real perspectives and is very transparent with expectation setting. I have never met anyone who works as hard, as diligently, as strategic as Cindy, and she is the best person to have on your side when things are not so great. She will guide you through the intricate workings of the legal system and her brain is one of the most powerful ones I’ve ever encountered. Cindy’s prowess and command of the legal ecosystem is incredible. She anticipates moves that are 10 steps ahead and the saying “Playing chess not checkers” is personified with Cindy. My high praise, and immense gratitude falls short because what Cindy has done for me and my family have been monumental. She’s humble and won’t toot her horn as much, but my goodness, if you ever find yourself in a sticky situation, call Cindy right away. And I’d also like to extend my warmest wishes and gratitude to both Vicki and Jaclyn. Since the first day I called to inquire, Vicki has set the right tone and trajectory of the kind of legal representation I was looking for. Vicki asked all the right questions, made me feel at ease, and I didn’t know how someone could establish trust so quickly especially prior to meeting in person, but Vicki earned my trust that day. I have enjoyed working with Jaclyn and her strategic mentality. She helped me understand the nuances of legal procedure, helped me comprehend the intricate details and steps of what’s to happen next. She made me comfortable with the things I was not familiar with, educated me, and for that, I am eternally grateful. All three - Cindy, Vicki, and Jaclyn have always returned phone calls promptly, responded to my emails even late at night, through the weekends, and for something so emotionally taxing that I was going through, they always found the time to share valuable insights, make astute recommendations, and always had my back (and sides and front). They are simply the best in the business.

I can only say, with all my heart, thank you very much! I came to see Attorney Marilyn Colon's after having hired two different attorneys who I felt were not representing me to their best extent. On the first visit, I saw how professional attorney Colon was and as well as her team. She was surprised by the situations in my case and I remember her reassuring words; "You are a good father and you will have time that you deserve with your daughter." She took all of my information about my case and started working right away. The first thing she did was send several friendly proposed agreements to the opposing attorney to avoid unnecessary expenses and as to not continue wasting time. This showed me that she was an honest professional and that she did not want to take my case just for the money. She knew the other attorney very well so she organized a great defense for my case. In a matter of days, I began to see results. Her style of work was flawless. We began to defend ourselves from the other party's attacks with great precision. We started to move forward and attorney Jenifer Betancourt took on my case with attorney Colon. I was surprised how she knew all the data, all the background, dates. She advised me well and explained the options to be able to finish my case and thus to not continue generating more expenses. I am really very grateful, she is an impeccable professional and her honesty makes her even greater. Also, I would like to congratulate Noelia, her work as a paralegal was always excellent, she was always informing and works very organized, as well as Yolanda. I am very grateful to the entire team for their hard work and for ensuring that I can spend equal amount of time with my daughter and as well as being able to come to a fair agreement. For those who are starting or are in the process of divorce, I recommend that they retain the services of attorney Marilyn Colon. I really highly recommend this great Family Attorney.

Joseph and his team are incredible. I was dealing with a long distance divorce/custody case, with homeschooled children. I'd had a couple of attorneys, only one of whom actually helped, but then things seemed to fall apart. I needed to make some changes because my children were not doing well. Our plan hadn't been finalized yet, so time was of the essence. A few other mommas, in a similar situation, recommended Joe. I consulted with a few attorneys, but none of them were willing to really listen. All of them left me feeling hopeless and very triggered. After years of psychological and emotional abuse, I wasn't in a place to be able to handle those types of attorneys. Joe was different. He was careful, calm, kind, and compassionate, but still straightforward with no b.s. I felt safe. I think that's what all of us want, really. Joe stayed in communication with me. He didn't leave me hanging. He kept me informed, answered every question, and was patient through all of it. He didn't yell at me (yeah, that has happened before). He helped me see things that needed to be seen and understand from better perspectives. It was a bonus that we saw eye to eye on some things and I didn't feel like I had to defend myself to him. We were able to come up with a new plan that kept the children's best interests as the top priority and avoid going to trial. I'm truly grateful and blessed. God put him in my path right when I needed it most. I have given his information to several mommas who are in need of help, and will continue to do so.

I'm very thankful that a good friend of mine referred me to Family First Legal Group a few years back when I made the difficult decision to get divorced. The law firm took a team approach and while most of my case was expertly handled by Terry DeSalvo Jr, along with his efficient paralegal Michelle Wilson, I was also helped on a number of occasions by Alex Peterson. My case primarily focused on child custody and Terry did a fantastic job implementing an aggressive strategy to uncover and document my ex's issues. I'm so thankful to report that after a long and drawn-out legal battle, I was granted full custody of my kids. While some may consider the legal fees for a challenging divorce like mine to be expensive, I believe that the services offered by Family First Legal Group were worth every penny. I have peace of mind every night when I put my kids to bed knowing that they are safe and that is priceless. Going through a divorce is an emotional rollercoaster but Terry and Alex offered sound legal advice throughout the entire process. I highly recommend this law firm!

I had been using Mr. Cripps from the time my son was 2 for my initial divorce and child support and his fathers indiscretions until he was 13. Never once did he promise me ANYTHING! There were times I felt so frustrated and wondered what the hell he was doing? Why wasn’t he ordering drug tests? Why wasn’t he fighting harder? All the while what I didn’t know was that Mr. Cripps knew the system inside and out and knew it would not fly. Not to mention the integrity and trust he has built with the courts is stellar! They know he’s not there to just throw anything at the wall to see if it sticks. The many many times we were in court we won, EVERY TIME! And when my sons father would show with a high payed attorney that his mom payed for they would try and bs, along with my ex, and lost! The one thing I truly regret was listening to a friend who convinced me to use another attorney at a very crucial point in time, that he had used and I ended up paying probably about 6 times what I would have paid with Cripps and I know he still would have done better than she did. I still won but even she didn’t think she did. There is no doubt in my mind he would have too! And better! Mr. Cripps would always talk me down. I was very emotional, scared, lost, angry, all the things! And he was so patient with me. I will never forget the one thing I always remember and carry with me that he told me, “he will hang himself” he said to me. At the time that frustrated me but when I look back I can tell he knew the type. He simply has seen it all. Mr. Cripps has a secret guys. He reads people. He knows what he is doing without having to charge people what these other thieving lawyers do! All with integrity, honesty, trust, and just no bs! So if you are looking to spend a lot of money on a “tiger” go right ahead! But my money would be on Mr. Cripps every time! He truly is a Godsend!

The difference maker for me is Traci's approach -- she is calm, she is fair, and she brings those qualities and approach to all parties in the process -- me, opposing counsel and by proxy, my ex. The impact of that to the journey was huge. Traci and her team calmly guided me through the most disruptive event in my life. Grateful.

Divorce is death. Coping with death can be very stressful. This happened to me. Thankfully, and providentially, I was introduced to family law attorney, Traci Koster, to help guide me through this very difficult time. She was exactly what I needed. Tough, authentic, realistic, sympathetic, detailed but simentanesouly able to look at the wholistic picture; reminding me of the end game - she was great! She, by far, sets a standard for other attorneys to follow, especially in regard to leading in integrity. She fought for me when I did not feel like fighting any longer. As a result of her diligence, she won what I wanted and even obtained far more than I could have ask for at the end of my divorce. My children and I will forever be grateful for Traci's unmatched advocacy! -Miranda

Divorce is the hardest possible thing I've dealt with especially involving kids. I had taste buds taken off my mouth not wanting to eat due to this matter of divorce to crying that my now ex-wife would let me see my kids. I left her so she had an avenue which is making my life hard through attorneys to get back. Long story story short I hired a cheap attorney versus not having one worst mistake ever... Hired Andrea she gets to the point divorced in record time. She doesn't play games and plays devils advocate as she knows the system. Best thing she advised to me is that she said to me with ease. "Your the same person going through a divorce with a different last name" She's a 10 Star. Me and my ex wife next to me. She turned a 14 month battle and converted in 90 days.

The Reid Law Group worked with me during the most difficult time of my life. The were compassionate from the start. The best part is their empathy is matched with their wisdom (which is invaluable during this process) and knowledge. I have worked with lawyers in my professional life but never have I had a entire team support and guide me the way Andrea and her team did. They were there every step of the way. If you want a strong advocate who will create a strategy that helps you achieve your individual goals... there is no one better. They understand that clients may have different desired outcomes and they work with you to help you meet these goals. Everything is explained thoroughly but ultimately they want what is best for your situation. I truly feel blessed that a friend (a-highly respected family law attorney) recommended her to me. Thank you for leading me to the best outcome for me in a remarkably trying situation. Forever thankful!

Wow, I mean WOW. I was in a panic when I looked into legal help and this practice helped me find the right attorney for the case after clear and prompt communication within a day of reaching out. Once they had my case information they guided me through each and every step with clear instructions, which really put my mind at ease. They went above and beyond to ensure I had the best outcome with all of the options and information at my fingertips and with immediacy. Could not have been a better choice for me and I haven’t lost sleep over my case since hiring them to walk me through what could have been a very rough time.

I believe that I went through the worst divorce on earth, and I thank god that I met Ms McDaniel. She is tough; she fights for what's right and fair. Sadly, I was married to a narcissist and a monster, who manipulated me throughout our marriage, while I struggled with Stage 4 cancer. Ms McDaniel worked hard to find a way to ensure my divorce was as easy as possible, in order to ensure it will not interrupt any of my Doctor Appointments and Chemotherapy sessions. The team at MGM Law are very respectful, kind, and hard working. My Ex husband tries to hide some funds, lied under oath and showed no respect to everyone, including his own lawyer. Ms McDaniel and her team was able to help me get a fair trail.

Divorce is a very hard process to go through, and even though it is not over yet, I already know that I could not pick a better lawyer. The first minute I walked in the office, terrified and not knowing what to do, Mary listened me and knew right away what is the best for me and especially for my boys. Mary is very knowledgeable, she works very hard and she fights even harder. I highly recommend MGM Law to everybody who seeks a great family law attorney!! ONE YEAR LATER: Today I had my final hearing. It was a very long and stressful day but again, Mary is The Shark!!! If they came at me strong and tried to put me down, Mary went back at them even stronger. I am so incredibly happy that Mary went with me through this difficult time because not only it is over but the most important thing is, she has managed to achieve a request, she has never experienced before to be ordered, and thanks to that my boys will be safe! Mary is the type of the attorney who will always be here for you, will fight for you very hard and not once you will feel like you are just some client. We have developed very close relationship and I could not ask for better attorney to help me with my very difficult case!

Mark Abzug is the best attorney hands down. I became a satisfied client about 10 years ago and when complications arise from my divorce settlement agreement Mark nips it in the bud right quick. I have had the displeasure of other attorneys in the past that talk the talk but can't produce. So, believe me I know the difference. Mark is the most knowledgeable , fairest, most caring , reasonable and attentive, and gets the job done with no over billing or B.S.. Mark's respect for the court is reciprocal. His petitions are precise and realistic with common sense, he has a way of demonstrating logic to his clients and especially to the court which is most important. I highly recommend Mark Abzug if your goal is peace of mind. His integrity is irreproachable.

I want to commend Mike's efforts and recognize him for an outstanding job on my behalf. His diligence and efficiency in getting the settlement agreement drafted, reviewed and signed all on the same day we reached an agreement is virtually unheard of and very much appreciated. What could have been a protracted and horribly expensive process was resolved with minimal friction and at a comparatively modest cost for all parties. The initial counterproposal we received looked like we were headed for a dogfight. His realistic, disciplined approach kept everyone, including opposing counsel, focused on obtaining a fair result for both parties.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
