I interviewed a few lawyers whose names I got from other professionals. I went with David because of his bedside manner and the fact he told me how to save money through the divorce process while I felt the other lawyers just viewed me as a money stream. He gave me great advise and was always very responsive (I mean the guy would respond to my emails late into the evening and on weekends which always helped with my anxiety). I could tell our guardian ad litem and the other lawyer in the case respected him a lot and we were able to mediate and get the case resolved with an outcome I am very pleased with. Thanks David! I sing your praises.

David And his team were amazing and on top of things! They represented me in a very difficult and ugly divorce case and made sure me and my kids were taken care of. Most importantly they got me the custody of my three kids that I should have after being the caregiver since they were born. I will forever be thankful to them and would 100% recommend them.

Damon and Suzanne were phenomenal to work with as our family in going through a very tough circumstance. They were empathic, tenacious, and understanding. They were not just collecting a pay day, they cared about the outcome for our family, and they celebrated with us after guiding the process to close and a big victory in a way we did not believe was even possible. Could not recommend the firm more. If you a phenomenal family law firm, look no further. Thank you so much!

I am so impressed with Mr. Bivek. He is a "cut to the chase" kind of attorney who is incredibly knowledgeable, but more importantly he's sharp. He knows what you need, how you need it, when you need it and will help you make it happen. He's a bright light in a seemingly dark tunnel of paperwork and procedure. I'm just glad I found him to assist me in my divorce.

I contacted Suzanne and from the start she was patient, did not rush me (EVER), allowed me to tell her the long history of my marriage and was very thorough! Not only did she do a great job, but her and her team went above and beyond my expectations!!!!!! I highly recommend this law firm!!!! Thank you Suzanne!!!!

I wish I could leave more than 5 stars. Mr Lee has gone above & beyond what any other lawyer would have ever done! He fought for me and my case for several years until he was finally able to do the impossible. Hiring him to represent me was the best decision I could’ve ever made. He answered every call and email at any time of the day or night. He included me and kept me informed every step of the way. Even as a person Mr Lee is kind and understanding, he doesn’t judge or jump to conclusions. He goes for the facts and stands up for justice. If you are thinking about hiring him then absolutely do it! I would recommend him to anyone!! Thank you Mr Lee & Mindy for everything you have done for me, you will never know how much it has truly meant !!

Alyson, Lauren and Heather brought so much wisdom, experience and HOPE to our case. I felt understood and heard with every concern and fear. The thought of mediation was terrifying, I had no idea what to expect or what the outcome would be. The settlement we reached was the ideal outcome. They understood the assignment and absolutely crushed it! Their expertise was both critical and necessary. Thank y'all so much! 🙏🏼

Schneider Williamson law firm is the best people to go to if you have a personal injury case. They were great at handling all that was involved in my case. Attorney Campbell Williamson came to me and was very professional, caring and made me feel at ease on all matters. I am so thankful for all his help and the handling of my case. Senior Litigation Paralegal, Beth Tyson was immensely helpful and there if I needed anything. No one could've been as kind and helpful as she was. She answered all my questions, kept me updated and was very personable. Each time I spoke to Evelyn Graham, she was very professional and caring and there to help in all matters. Each person in the firm that was a part if my case was extremely kind and helpful. The case took a lil longer than I thought it would, mostly because I had no clue as to the process it took to get things done. They got me a sucessful settlement and it was well worth the wait. They were great in every way. Couldn't have had anyone any better than this firm. Thank you so much, Schneider & Williamson firm! You are the best at getting what the client deserves! I would highly recommend Schneider Williamson, LLC to all.

If you’re reading this review it means you or a loved one is going through a rough time, and you are weighting your options. My family and I also were in a similar situation. They made the decision to trust in Kimberly Berry and the legal team at Lawson & Berry and it was not the wrong one. She fought for me TWICE and won. She is the reason why I am able to post this review today and give her and her staff such high praise. She was very attentive to my case even though she had such busy schedule and made sure I was taken care of every step of the way. I have nothing but gratitude towards Lawson & Berry for the way they treated my case and my family. I trusted her with my life and she did not disappoint. Thank you once again Kimberly, Christy, and Madison for making this horrible ordeal something of the past.

Balean and Kristy kept me sane during the hardest year of my life and I am forever grateful. I was too nervous to reach out to a divorce lawyer even though it was well past time, so a friend of mine who is a lawyer in another area talked me into it and recommended these two personally. I can't say enough good things so I'll try and break it down into the things that are/were important to me in a divorce. They are NOT pushy. I was so nervous the first call, I did not want to get a divorce. I even (politely) told them I hope we don't ever need to talk again. They were extremely supportive. Not one single time did either of them push me towards a divorce. They answered all my questions honestly and thoughtfully and I never felt rushed. On the flip side of that, they are also very cognizant that their time is expensive. So for me, it is very hard to find a lawyer who is constantly aware of running up your tab, but personable enough to trust them and not feel like just another check in the spreadsheet. On top of that, I have ADHD so I can get off on a tangent with the best of them. Both Kristy and Balean we're very good at redirecting me into the areas that mattered and pushing me though the areas that didn't without letting me get hung up on them. They are extremely prompt (during business hours, I cant speak to otherwise because I don't expect people to work 24/7), I don't think I ever waited a full day for a reply. You WILL feel like a priority. Which frankly with how being a lawyer works, is pretty remarkable. They know their stuff. I don't know a better way to put that. And if they don't know, they make it a priority to find out. I had a few odd snafus with property issues and a few (lets say less than reasonable) demands from my now ex, and if I had a question they tracked it down if they weren't already sure. They are generally fun and calming presences. Mediation went for a full day, so Balean was trapped in a room with me for probably 12 straight hours. And if you aren't aware (i certainly wasn't), mediation is very much hurry up and wait. When we had the mediator, it was 100% business. When she was in the other room, we walked through everything we needed to discuss, got advice, and then were able to relax and recharge a bit before the next turn. As you can imagine, its an emotional time. I went from needing to pace the hallways angry to bouncing off the walls bored to everything in between and not once did Balean get even slightly irritated with me. They are VERY aware that you're going though something and that while we need to be efficient there also needs to be room for you to be a person with feelings and needs. So if you don't read all of that, the important bits are they are going to make you a priority and you'll feel like it, they will not run up your bill for no reason and will be honest when they think something may do so, they give you grace to be going though something hard, while also getting you though it in a prompt and efficient and competent manner. I absolutely would not even consider another legal team if these guys are available. I can't speak highly enough of this firm.

Rob Cowan has been my attorney for many years. He’s handled all of my personal business in a professional and easy manner. When you step into the office, you immediately know that it’s not your stuffy attorney experience. Sometimes you’re even greeted by Luna, the office dog, who I believe does have therapeutic qualities. Rob is thorough, genuine and kind. He has the patience to explain the legalese, even if you don’t understand it all the first time. From a simple will to a messy divorce, he and his firm have you covered!

Prompt, professional and personable! The entire group (Michael and Adrienne specifically in my case) are absolute experts in their field. I have been treated with the upmost respect by anyone that I have corresponded with, and when seeking legal help, this fact alone goes a very long way. Thus, I am forever grateful for their guidance in an unprecedented and very stressful time. If you are looking for a seamless experience in managing any case you may be dealing with, look no further - these are your folks! You will not be disappointed. Thank you JL Weaver Law Firm! :)

I want to personally thank Mr. Wosnik. He recently represented me in my divorce case. I came to him from an attorney that I did not feel understood me or the gravity of my case. Mr. Wosnik really heard me out and acted in the best interest of my family. He cared. Instead of treating me like “another client”, he made me feel like I had someone that would really defend me and fight for me. He did just that. He was patient and understanding. He delivered great results. I would highly recommend his services.

I want to first thank Wosnik Law for such an AMAZING Job. They helped me this week with my son’s case. Mr. Wosnik is so kind and soft spoken, he will tell you upfront what to expect. Everything he told me exceeded my expectations beyond human understanding. I went to court with Mr. Robbie and the judge 👨‍⚖️ gave us a dismissal of additional probation. I know it was the gracious hand ✋ of God working through the attorneys but I have to give them credit for their professionalism, knowledge, wisdom and understanding. My son was granted a second chance at life at 22 years of age.He was facing prison time for a probation violation. If I had 10,000 tongues I couldn’t thank you enough and also for a great 😊 price!

I cannot express my gratitude enough for this team. Our case was complicated with countless layers across multiple states. Alyson, Lauren and Heather brought so much wisdom, experience and HOPE to our case. I felt understood and heard with every concern and fear. The thought of mediation was terrifying, I had no idea what to expect or what the outcome would be. The settlement we reached was the ideal outcome. They understood the assignment and absolutely crushed it! Their expertise was both critical and necessary. Thank y'all so much! 🙏🏼

Schneider Williamson law firm is the best people to go to if you have a personal injury case. They were great at handling all that was involved in my case. Attorney Campbell Williamson came to me and was very professional, caring and made me feel at ease on all matters. I am so thankful for all his help and the handling of my case. Senior Litigation Paralegal, Beth Tyson was immensely helpful and there if I needed anything. No one could've been as kind and helpful as she was. She answered all my questions, kept me updated and was very personable. Each time I spoke to Evelyn Graham, she was very professional and caring and there to help in all matters. Each person in the firm that was a part if my case was extremely kind and helpful. The case took a lil longer than I thought it would, mostly because I had no clue as to the process it took to get things done. They got me a sucessful settlement and it was well worth the wait. They were great in every way. Couldn't have had anyone any better than this firm. Thank you so much, Schneider & Williamson firm! You are the best at getting what the client deserves! I would highly recommend Schneider Williamson, LLC to all.

My experience with getting legal service for my divorce was very exceptional. The fast response time and knowledge of the whole process was phenomenal. There was no second guessing about trying another firm. Christine is very thorough and easy to communicate with. She will answer all questions big or small. Her price is very reasonable and the whole process easy and she will guide you through if you run into any problems. I’d definitely recommend her to others. As a matter of fact I have already referred two people because I trust she will provide the same professional services as she did with me.

Donna-Marie has represented me twice; once when my car was stolen and recently with my divorce. My ex-wife turned a simple divorce into a mess. When dealing with an unnecessarily difficult lawyer on the opposing side, Donna-Marie was very professional, courteous, and respectful. She understood my fair position and managed to keep my focus on the important points despite several baseless lies from my ex-wife. I received everything I wanted plus more with her help. I would highly recommend her.

We didn’t click well at all and through it all they never helped me get any better health wise. I can’t promise you that you’ll get the same treatment I got. He had and has great reviews, but I didn’t get any help. I feel like I wasted like ten months with no help at all! I went a different way cause they never helped me at all and now I see how it feels to have a team that’s really working with you and for you. I don’t wish them any bad business, you should take people and their case seriously tho. The ladies that answers the phone helped me the best they could tho and I greatly appreciate them for that.

I never needed an injury lawyer before and after my accident I could have chosen any billboard lawyer in Savannah but I went with a recommendation of my Dr. I chose Josh Tucker and it was the best decision I could have made.. Josh and his staff are extremely professional and truly good kind hearted people. I felt they cared about my recovery as much as taking on my case.. but when it was time to fight they were also flawless when it came to getting full recovery for my medical bills as well as compensation for my injuries.. I can say with 100% certainty that he will be mine and my family’s lawyer from now on.. if you need a injury lawyer, Call Josh Tucker.. I highly recommend and you won’t regret it.

Robert Homlar was referred to me from another Lawyer to do a case for my fiancé which then added on an accident case. From Day 1, Mr.Homlar showed compassion, attention to detail and a willingness to help - not just with one case but both cases! In the first case, what could have landed my fiancé in jail for a long time, Mr. Homlar was able to get him out on bond while waiting trial. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Homlar and his staff for ALL of your lawyer needs. He is a BEAST in the court room ! And takes his job very seriously! He treats all of his clients with respect and if something doesn’t look too promising he will communicate that with you! He delivers and stands by his word! I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else!

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?

Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
  • Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
  • Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
  • Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
  • Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
  • Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
  • Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:

  • Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
  • Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
  • Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
  • Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
  • Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
  • Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
  • Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?

Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
  • Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
  • Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:

  • Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
  • Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.

Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer

Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption.
  2. How will you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case.
  4. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals.
  5. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases.
  6. Who will be handling my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.

How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
  • Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
  • Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
  • List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
  • Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
  • Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.

Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
