I had very quickly returned messages. I had applied for SSDI, everything had been stringing on. My last ability to appeal SSDI, Shawna Shearer became my lawyer and I received full back payment, and regular monthly payments within 4 weeks of ALJ!! All of the staff i worked with were kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. They helped turn my life around!

I recently had to go through a divorce after a long marriage and was fortunate enough to be represented by Nina Kunish of Bishop, Cunningham & Andrews. She was accessible, professional, kind and yet always kept me in the loop of reality. She helped me to work through the process and be realistic and optimistic about what I had hoped to achieve. The law firm office was also convenient and accessible. Everyone who I had contact with was helpful and helped me to make the contacts and get the information I needed. Nina is someone I trust.

I cannot say enough good things about Jason, my attorney, and Donna, his paralegal. From the very beginning of my case, they have been nothing short of incredible. I hired Jason and Donna because my spouse had retained an attorney who was aggressive and unpleasant, and I knew I needed someone professional and capable to stand by my side. Jason and Donna exceeded every expectation.
They handled every aspect of my case with professionalism, expertise, and compassion. They truly listened to my concerns, and their guidance gave me confidence throughout this difficult process. Thanks to their hard work, I’ve achieved everything I hoped for up to this point.
Their dedication, responsiveness, and thoroughness have been remarkable. If you’re looking for a team that will fight for you with integrity and skill, Jason and Donna are exactly who you need. I couldn’t be more grateful for their support, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I cannot thank Jason & Donna enough for their help protecting my children. We had multiple hearings over the course of 8 months. Jason and Donna were available 24/7. No matter what day of the week or time of day, I could reach them if needed. They went above and beyond with their skills and resources to protect my children as if they were their own. We are so very grateful for their time and strong efforts to keep them safe. If I ever need help in the future, I will only use Jason & Donna.

I want to sincerely thank Arman Manoucheri and his wonderful team for incredible support. From the very beginning, he was always available when we needed him and provided excellent advice. What really stood out was how honest and trustworthy he was—he always kept his word and never made false promises. We felt confident knowing we could rely on him. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for our situation made a big difference. I highly recommend Law Offices of Arman Manoucheri to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and hardworking attorney. Thank you again for everything!

Tristan came across very sympathetic and caring during our first meeting when I was deciding to hire her or not. After that it all went down hill. During my legal separation she made many careless mistakes filling out paperwork and when mistakes were pointed out she was rude and short tempered. At one point she even sent me word documents and told me that I should make the corrections myself. She charged for time that she used to make corrections and withdrew as my representative before the final paperwork was even delivered to me. I had to hire another attorney to complete the work. I would highly recommend that you look elsewhere for representation.

September 12th, 2022 police arrived at my door to tell me they were investigating sexual claims made against me, outlandish as they were I immediately panicked because as everyone knows, once these rise against you, you’re pretty much screwed. I immediately reached out to any attorney and was recommended Vindicate law, I spoke to the receptionist and explained the case and was assigned Carrie Fulton Brown. She accepted my case. The path to freedom was long and arduous. After the arraignment they told me I was facing 60 years in prison. Many continuations later, my anxiety and stress were at an all time high. Me and Carrie never really talked to each other about the case itself except a few times as my case was entirely hearsay, but because of the fact that it was from a minor the case was stacked against me 10 fold. Communication with Carrie was very rough, as most people sitting in the hot seat just want a shred or a glimmer of positivity but Carrie did NOT deliver on that front in the slightest. But that was okay, because she was dedicated to working against the state in a screwed up system. Most of the beginning of my case I knew most people and even Carrie didn’t believe me when I say I didn’t do it. Later on I passed 3 polygraph tests trying to prove I didn’t do it, and only after the 3rd one when I passed it with the actual prosecutor / State did Carrie tell me she strongly believes I didn’t do it. She gave me the best options to follow forward and going to trial with a minors words against mine was bleak, Carrie fought for the best outcome, I served 0 days in jail, no fees or Fines, Didn’t have to sign a sexual registry, all 4 counts were dropped to a Class C Abuse of a child. And 1 year of DOC Probation in which I spent 3 weeks on before the DOC discharged me from probation saying my crime didn’t fit criteria of having probation as I was a zero risk person and this was the only thing I’ve ever gotten on my record.
All said and done, I’m glad Carrie pulled through for me and allowed me to stay out of prison and remain with my family and to continue working she’s a tough person to understand and rough around the edges when talking to her but she’s nothing but business which is what you want in an attorney. Thanks Carrie for giving me my life back! 60 years was a long time to be away.

I am absolutely appalled by the complete lack of professionalism and utter disregard for my situation shown by Carrie Fulton Brown from this Law Group. I entrusted her with my case, believing her promises of dedicated representation, and instead, I received nothing but empty words and an empty bank account. She happily accepted my retainer, and then proceeded to do absolutely nothing. During the 6 months period she was my attorney, before her withdrawal, phone calls went unanswered, meetings/appointments were canceled for no apparent reasons. No investigations were done on my case, she did not interview no witnesses, and the so called ”victim“. Furthermore, Carrie had the audacity to tell me I was borderline harassing her by calling her and her incompetent paralegal Lisa too much. She literally took my money and vanished into thin air. Carrie Fulton Brown is a trash of attorney. I suffered significantly due to her inaction, and I was left feeling completely abandoned and betrayed. I would strongly advise anyone considering hiring her to look elsewhere. Save your money, save your time, and save yourself the immense frustration and disappointment. She is a disgrace to the legal profession.

Jason is top notch. He made us feel comfortable, confident and at ease the best he could through a stressful time. He was amazing at keeping us informed with updates and what to expect. He was also gracious in answering all of our random questions. We are so grateful we put our trust in him. We highly recommend him!

I wanted to share that the experience I had with the view ridge law- more specifiacally with the attorny Elaina T. was far from well. I had to end my session with her early and request my money back. I paid her to help me and instead she spent time telling me why I couldnt get what I wanted and defending the other party. I also found out she did not read all the paperwork I sent in which she claimed was irrelevant to the case which was entirely unture. I was shocked at the lack of professionalism and care that was given to me. Our meeting was not recorded so I was not able to prove that way she was speaking to me to her superiors. The only positive that came from this was that the office did refund me my money. I lost out on a very timely situation due to their lack of attention.

I had the pleasure of having Megan Stanley represent me in my divorce. Her knowledge, experience, and reliability gave me great confidence throughout my case. She is a great communicator and was always very responsive. She demonstrated high professionalism and was always very respectful in her interactions with the court’s staff. Ms. Stanley has an innate ability to absorb and retain a substantial amount of detailed information. I was genuinely impressed with how she could process all this information and recall it as needed. She formulated thorough and effective strategies for each situation and always communicated everything to me. She was always reasonable but also knew when to stand firm and be more aggressive when it came down to fighting for me. I had a great sense of security knowing she was doing everything she could for me. Ms. Stanley is a great attorney, a great person, and someone I trust wholeheartedly. She helped me tremendously, got me the best possible outcome, and I highly recommend that anyone going through a divorce hire her.

I was referred to Megan & her office in 2015. I was told she was the most affordable yet powerful lawyer they had. She proved to be that and so much more. Megan is supremely efficient with her time, saving me thousands of dollars. She is clear & authoritative in instructing you on the best actions to protect yourself & focus on your goal, with a compassionate nature that calms you thru even the hardest of times. She is thoroughly creative with her arguments & her communication skills are superb. Megan knows judges & their temperaments, she over-prepares you for the courtroom, and she will ensure no details are missed in presenting the most effective argument to win your case. I used Megan not just once, but TWICE to overcome a nearly insurmountable assault of accusations & court filings by my ex in an attempt to steal full custody of our daughter. To show how proficient Megan will be for you as well, imagine the workload involved in fighting and winning against: two domestic violence protection orders alleging drug abuse, physical abuse, & sex abuse, two CPS investigations, a Kirkland PD detective investigation, & overcoming a severely hostile ex and a biased therapist that submitted increasingly varied testimony against facts. With all those stacked against me, in 2016 & repeated in 2019, Megan won. And to add to the evidence of her amazing forethought & genuine desire to protect her clients, Megan coached me to file a Contempt charge against my ex in an effort to prevent the lies & tragic loss of my daughter for 6 months at a time from happening again. Due to Megan’s hard work, we won & my ex was forced to pay a portion of fees as a consequence, & now I can rest easy knowing my daughter & I are protected for the foreseeable future. Above all, what makes Megan unique and the best lawyer you could hope for is she CARES. She is smart, committed, responsive to every message no matter the time, and will do everything in her power to fight for your cause. Thank you, Megan, so much for BOTH of your cases with me. I don’t believe anyone could’ve done what you did for us, especially not just defending against actions, but then being proactive and forcing lasting consequences the other way. You are simply - THE BEST!

My case was unusual, involving dissolving a long marriage without divorcing. Megan was patient, smart, creative and understanding. She was available and aware of the details of my case whenever I contacted her. I have absolute confidence in her integrity and ability. She was a pleasure to work with under difficult and involved conditions.

They put you through an inital intake process which is positive. I wanted a quick end to my divorce and was happy to compromise to make it happen. Our goals seemed to align.
Unfortunately this firm provided poor council during the first phone call with the attorney. Luckily this did not lead to a financial move that would have put me in violation of a court order. Later the attorney wanted me to provide documentary evidence he had previously advised against in an aparent 180. Such documentation was previously claimed to put me in legal liability. What can I believe?
Very disappointing.
Divorce is tough enough. I hired an attorney becuase I am no legal expert and I wanted a quick, mediated end to my marriage. Instead I get bad and changing advice. Plenty of good reviews of these guys. Hope I'm an outlier.

Truce Law is the law firm you want to hire when you want a stress free and wonderful experience. All of the attorneys seem to truly care about their clients and the whole legal team is professional, communicative, and knowledgeable. Melodi and Dianna are the best duo you could ask for. They helped me tremendously and they are not only wonderful at their jobs, but also wonderful humans in general with big hearts. If you need legal help, this is the place to get it!

I cannot recommend Truce Law highly enough! From the moment I reached out, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my case. Dianna, Melodi and Giselle were incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, and kept me informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome was truly impressive.
What stood out most was their ability to explain things to me in a way that was easy to understand, which gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. They were friendly, responsive, and always made me feel like a priority.
Thanks to Dianna and her amazing team I was able to resolve things efficiently and with a positive outcome. I would highly recommend Truce Law to anyone in need of skilled and trustworthy legal representation.

HIRE JULIE CAPUTO with Port Gardner Law Group!!
October 2024 - I was fortunate enough to be referred to Julie by another attorney a year ago. She was the 3rd attorney I had met with and she was able to see me on very short notice within 48 hours. Immediately, she put me at ease. After our initial visit, I already felt a huge weight had lifted. I was very glad that I had not already retained an attorney at that point. Right away, I felt Julie was "the right one". She was sincere, compassionate, caring, and I could tell she was smart. She immediately took control and told me what I needed to do in order to assist with the case. I hired her right then and left the meeting feeling as if I was in capable hands - and rightly so. On very short notice, Julie and her team were able to frame and present my case which secured a positive outcome at the temporary orders hearing-- for me to be awarded primary custodian of my children and to be able to temporarily remain in the family home. For the past year, Julie has worked diligently through numerous obstacles and challenges from the opposing party while maintaining a high level of courtesy and professionalism to all parties throughout the process. I am very pleased with the outcome and so glad that I chose to trust Julie during this process. Some attorneys are "sharks", or overly aggressive. I would say that Julie is assertive, fair, smart, careful, and very knowledgeable about the law. Also, I believe her courtroom presence visibly reflects her honesty and sincerity - thereby garnering respect and credibility. A big "THANK YOU" to Julie and Nick. I highly recommend Julie.

From the first day I met Darren and his team, I felt a sense of relief and hope. He took over with my divorce from an attorney who was retiring, and immediately got to work, familiarizing himself with my case, and getting up to speed quickly. He didn't miss a beat. His knowledge, presence, empathy, communication and professionalism were everything I needed to make my divorce as bearable as possible. I immediately felt that I was in good hands, and time after time, he and his team proved that to be the case for me.
I highly recommend Darren!

I’m a criminal defense lawyer with 45 years of experience, so when it came to my own difficult, complicated divorce, I knew I needed the best lawyer possible. My first lawyer was, at best, mediocre. Then, during a court zoom hearing a couple of months into my divorce, I watched and listened to Cynthia First representing another petitioner. It took me five minutes to make the decision to see if she would represent me.
I know lawyers and the quality of what they do, having worked with or opposite as many as 400 of them. There are three at the top of the list, lawyers who are brilliant, caring, dedicated. Ms First is one of those three. She’s super smart and knowledgeable not only about the law but also about people and situations. Her skills in representation go beyond that: She cares about her clients. My emails were answered immediately, even during off hours.
Superlative representation. Class act. Terrific person, terrific lawyer.
(I also want to thank Peggy, the paralegal, whose organization and hard work made things so much better and easier for me.)

I am a 71-year-old man. After 30 years of marriage, I was ambushed by my ex-wife (and her two children) with a petition for divorce. Being retired, my situation looked financially bleak if they got their way. Homelessness appeared likely. It was always about the money to them. I was seriously cornered, so I got Faye Breitreed and Chriss Elliott in my corner. Faye, Chriss, and my McKinley Irvin team turned this franchise around and saved whatever is left of my life! In the end, I was awarded 70% of the community property AND spousal support. My case lasted almost five years but was well worth it!

I’d recommend ensuring that your staff.. whether a secretary, paralegal, or receptionist... has a clear understanding of basic client-facing information. Prospective clients should be able to quickly obtain answers to foundational questions such as:
1. Consultation Fees: Whether the firm charges for an initial consultation and, if so, the amount.
2. Billing Structure: Whether services are billed on a flat fee, hourly rate, or incrementally
3. Retainer Amount: The cost to retain the attorney’s services and the terms of the retainer agreement.
Equipping your staff with this knowledge fosters efficiency, professionalism, and client trust. A well-prepared team ensures potential clients feel valued and confident in their initial interaction with your firm.

She'll tell you one thing then do the exact opposite. Then if your retainer runs dry you better have your check book ready. Because she'll drop your case in a Hot second until your caught up again. She is not there to do what's best for you. She's only there to do what's easiest for her. Then when wewent to court she didn't consult with me at all. She was acting like co-counsel for my ex. So diffinately proceed with caution if you decide to hire this attorney.

**Stay away from this firm!!**
~I do not leave one star reviews lightly~
I'm embarrassed to have to say that I was almost duped by this attorney into representing me, but she did get a ton of money from me.
I was with them throughout a retainer and a half and 8 months later for a childless, asset-less divorce. I left their firm with next to no work done that I didn't do the majority of on my own and only the initial petition having been filed and paid a retainer and a half.
I tried to professionally converse with Elizabeth about fees and time frames during the case, and she suddenly withdrew her representation, without any discussion, through an email where she neglected to take any responsibility for her office's inactivity during my duration under their counsel. Even through the inactivity on my case, the fees kept rolling in for reading emails multiple times as well as multiple people reading the same email multiple times. Elizabeth also charged me to tell the court she wasn't going to be in office, and charged me for the people to prepare and file that same copy paste document with changed dates.
I was nickel and dimed, that's all I can say.
I will say that with as easily as she gave in after an email requesting clarification about charges and how I felt that my case was being put on the back burner, I'm glad to see she won't be representing me in court now, as she would likely give up as easily in court as she seemed to wither and run away after just one email.
Steer clear of Elizabeth Christy and find better representation elsewhere, you'll thank yourself.

Kathryn was the first attorney who truly made a difference and followed through on what she advised. I hired her following the divorce & child custody hearing after my prior attorney retired. Kathryn knows King County family law in and out and when best to act to get the best results. I needed an Attorney with experience in Domestic Violence cases and she was the first attorney to see the matters at hand for what was truly happening and give me honest, sound legal to advise. I'm extremely grateful for Kathryns's work ethic, dedication and passion for what she does.

When I first realized it was time for me to get a lawyer… I was very nervous and skeptical of what to expect, and what I was paying for. Then I met Kathryn Fields at Elise Buie. Since day one, she has made me finally feel at ease. I have been taken advantage of and bullied by my ex-spouse and his girlfriend for far too long. I didn’t know the law, or my rights. Kathryn, being extremely educated and knowledgeable in family law, guided, mentored and empowered me. At any time, whenever I needed her, she was immediately available and held the upmost professionalism. Most importantly, she actually CARES about my son and I. She fights for us. She gave me my wings back and that is not something you can pay for. If you need someone to fight for you, or assist in any way, all while genuinely caring, Kathryn Fields in my honest opinion is the one you WANT on your side. I am forever grateful. I wish I could give 10 stars!

I found Kathryn through a friend. I had already made several calls looking for an attorney to help me through what I was sure would be a difficult divorce. All the calls I made we met with “this is what we charge an hour” and then the touting of all their accomplishments. With Kathryn the first words I heard were of compassion for both myself and my children. In our first meeting she patiently and knowledgeably answered all of my questions and I trusted her almost immediately. The divorce went as expected and she kept me on track with both a sense of humor and by telling me the truth whether I wanted to hear it or not. It’s not something I would want to go through again, but if I do I know who to call.

He called me on time for every phone call we had scheduled, he was prompt in responding to my emails. He followed up with me timely and immediately let me know the results of my case when they were available to him. I am very pleased with the outcome as it was just as he expected it to be. He was highly compassionate and caring about my case and situation. Hands down the best lawyer I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.

I recently worked with Brumley Law Firm after being involved in a car accident, and I can’t recommend them enough. From the very first consultation, they made the process clear and easy to understand. The attorneys were highly knowledgeable, walked me through each step of the legal process, and always kept me updated on the status of my case.
What really stood out to me was their attention to detail and genuine care for my well-being, special thank you to Prerana for being so patient and informative. They were responsive to any questions I had and took the time to explain things in a way that made me feel confident.
Thanks to their hard work, I was able to receive fair compensation for my injuries and damages. If you’re looking for a reliable, professional team to handle your car accident case they are the team for you.

Mr. Browning, in my opinion, is one of the best lawyers you can get. He is always looking at both sides to be ready for a response in any case. The communication between the two of us was amazing! He consistently gave me updates and always gave great advice. He worked so hard on my case, even with him being injured during my case, he never failed. I could ask any question and he was never mad or irritated with it. Mr. Browning is very thoughtful about everyone’s feelings and desires when it comes to getting results. During all this for me, he has alleviated all the stress that I normally would be dealing with and I am, and will always be, extremely grateful towards this! I recommend him 100%!

Mr. Browning succeeded in getting spousal support for me despite opposing counsel costing 200+% more and was able to get out motion passed, while simultaneously being able to get opposing motions denied.

Allen thanked me at our first visit for putting my trust in him. I was consciously involved in the process and Allen educated and guided me with patience. In my case he was willing to challenge the status quo to win my case. Allen has a vibrant character and he uses it well in court. Know that aswering questions is what an attorney should do during this emotional time. Allen did that for me.

I am writing to express my sincere disappointment and concern regarding the legal services I received from Daniel.
I engaged his services with the expectation of receiving professional and competent representation in my case. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from satisfactory for the following reasons:
Lack of Communication: Throughout the course of our engagement, there was a noticeable lack of effective and timely communication. Vital information was often overlooked or not relayed promptly, leading to unnecessary misunderstandings and confusion.
Inadequate Preparation: It was evident that there was a lack of thoroughness and diligence in the preparation of my case. Critical details were overlooked, resulting in a subpar presentation of my case.
Missed Deadlines: There were multiple instances where critical deadlines were not met, causing delays and jeopardizing the effectiveness of your profecionalism. As a resalt my hearing was faild because of that.
Failure to Fulfill Promises: Promises and assurances made regarding the handling and outcome of my case were not fulfilled.
Lack of Advocacy: I felt that there was a lack of assertiveness and advocacy on my behalf.
It is with regret that I feel compelled to share this feedback. As a client, I believe it is crucial to highlight areas where improvement is needed. I sincerely hope that this feedback will help other people from the mistakes that I made by asking you about legal help.
While I may not have achieved the desired outcome in my case, I hope that this feedback will be taken constructively, and steps will be taken to improve the quality of service provided to future clients.

I was so fortunate a friend recommended I hire Paul for my recent divorce. Paul was everything I needed. He was calm, considerate, listened to me, took the time to discuss my options, very responsive when I contacted him and professional in every interaction. I greatly appreciated that throughout the proceedings he was thorough in all his paperwork and very timely in all the court filings. Paul was always prepared for every meeting or deadline. I was so impressed with Paul, I subsequently used him for the estate planning for myself and then my mother. I would highly recommend Paul as an attorney, he's one of the best attorneys I've worked with.

This a 5 star review, I would give 10 stars if they'd let me.
My custody case was very complex. I spoke to many Washington lawyers only to be told by all of them that this is a losing battle. I was told that I would spend a lot of time and money and still lose. I hired an attorney, in Oregon where I live, to work on my custody case in Washington. They did nothing, I hired a second Oregon attorney who was helpful, they found Mr Battan, discussed options and advised me to work directly with him. I was apprehensive at first as Paul had told me that my case was not only possible, but that he felt he could get it done fairly quickly and easily. This was in contrast to what previous attorneys had said. He cited the cases that were similar, explaining why he felt a judge would rule in my favor. I decided to move forward with Paul Battan and his approach with this matter, about a month later I was awarded temporary custody, another few months and it was finalized. Paul was confident, reassuring, and was always 10 steps ahead of the other party. My only regret is that I didn't find Paul first..... about 6 months and numerous consultations were wasted on other less experienced attorneys. Don't make my mistake, you "better call Paul"!
Sincerely,
Andy D.

Our experience with John exceeded our family's expectations. His experience in family law court, as well as his honest & respectable reputation amongst the commissioners and judges, sets him apart from other lawyers. He is trustworthy and fair, and practices with the highest level of sensitivity and integrity. He is PROFICIENT in family law, meticulously organized and his attention to detail resulted in a better than desired outcome for our family. I've referred & will continue to refer family and friends to John and would give him the highest recommendation available.

I had an unusual case where my spouse was Canadian but we had never resided together in either Washington or Canada during our marriage (we had been overseas). John clearly explained my challenge, that Washington did not have jurisdiction for a traditional proceeding, but he also had researched a solution that was easy for us to implement and that allowed us to proceed. John is excellent to work with; creative, flexible and prompt. I highly recommend him!

John has been a blessing to work with. He replies to emails very quickly and is sure to answer any questions/concerns that I might have. He's very good at handling documents and speaking with the other lawyer therefore leaving me out of any unnecessary paperwork that might add stress. I appreciate his attention to detail and the comfort level he has brought in such a stressful time in my life. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

I used Bliss Law Group, specifically Riley Moos, to represent me in an especially contentious protection order against my husband (and father of my only child) after calling the police on him for the third time in 2 years. The night that I left was the final straw when he tried to break down the bedroom door to get to me. My ex was extremely upset when I filed for the protection order, vowing that by the time the hearing was finished, he would have full custody of our daughter....As you can imagine, I was quite scared!!!! A lot of people say that protection orders are easy to get but ours was much more complex. When I left my husband, the only place I could go, was back to him, or to a homeless/abused women's shelter. I would not allow my daughter to suffer either one of those situations and decided to take her out of state, to my hometown, where we could stay with family while we could pick up the pieces of our broken lives. The decision to leave the state was best for my daughter but it added greatly to the potential repercussions of leaving my husband. My attorney, Riley Moos, swooped in and saved the day. It's hard to describe, but from the moment I started talking to her, I knew we would win that protection order; I could tell when I talked to her that she had read all of the 25 page protection order I'd written recounting the treatment I'd endured over the years, and I knew that she was 100% invested in protecting myself and my daughter. She believed in my cause and she pursued it like a mother bear protecting her cubs. In the final protection order hearing, the Commissioner stated that there was a preponderance of evidence of coercive control. He ordered my husband undergo a substance abuse evaluation and domestic abuse evaluation. And here, I must applaud my ex-husband, because he allowed this feedback to change him. He's been going to AA 5x a week for the past year, has gotten sober, and has turned his life around. None of this would have been possible without Riley. I had previously talked to a pro-bono attorney and could tell that she had no interest in *fighting* for me, or even in reading the lengthy protection order I had written. If it hadn't been for my attorney, Riley Moos, my daughter and I wouldn't be safe in our new home, and my ex-husband wouldn't have turned his life around!!!

Phebe helped me prepare for my unemployment case. She explored all possible options that would help support my claim.

If you need an attorney, I would highly recommend Phebe Enfield. Phebe helped me win my case by being very knowledgeable about the law and the process. She communicated with me regularly throughout the process. She prepared me thoroughly for testimony before the judge. I feel that the only reason I was successful was because of Phebe.

She was very personable and I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs an attorney. She was never too busy to speak with me and answered my emails promptly.

Roxanne is the person you want fighting for you! She went above and beyond for my family with very little help as clients. My family struggled to get everything in order and without Roxanne, we’d be left with nothing. That’s putting it lightly. Each step she walked us through with expert knowledge and grace. I’d recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney and feel safe having their case in her hands and will definitely utilize her expertise if ever needed in the future. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would!!

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.
