We have been working with Jack for a few months now and are extremely happy with his services. Although our case is still on going, we feel comfortable to give him this 5 stars review based on the work he has done for us so far. Jack is honest and efficient with his hours. He is also patient, reassuring and great at explaining things, and from what I have seen, excellent at pleading as well. I would highly recommend him as an attorney!

Divorce is a challenging process, particularly when children are involved. I engaged Attorney Keicha Patel to assist with my divorce, child custody, and equitable distribution matters. She has performed exceptionally well thus far. If you require an experienced family lawyer, I highly recommend Attorney Keicha Patel.

Jack Taggert of Mclleveen Law Firm has gone above and beyond to assist me on my custody matter. My first lawyer didn’t do so well and when I reached out to Jack I had honestly lost faith in getting my daughter back in my life. After working with Jack the past few months my faith is restored, he has done a great job negotiating and fighting on my behalf. All fighting fathers deserve legal counsel as professional as Jack, he’s a family man, a man of faith, and I’ve felt comfortable having him handle the most sensitive issue in my life. Big thanks to Jack and Tina for all their help.

My experience was incredible. Mr. Brinkley provided with me with great service. The level of professionalism, understanding and compassion were simply unmatchable. If you are looking for a great attorney, look no further.
Thank you Mr. Brinkley for your help.

Mr. Brinkley has advised me on two separate occasions. He is extremely knowledgeable, but also kind. He took the time to listen and show empathy when I was feeling afraid and uncertain. The law is the law, but it takes someone with real skill and heart to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives and meet them where they are. Mr. Brinkley knows the law, but it’s that certain 'X' factor—the way he treats people—that truly sets him apart from the rest. If I ever need representation again, I will gladly call upon him.
Mr. Brinkley, Thank you.
-Daniel

Mr. Brinkley provided outstanding support throughout my case, which took several years due to court delays. The legal process was overwhelming, but he was thorough, detailed, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. In the end, he won my case, and I am extremely grateful to have had him as my attorney.

I got into a bind and was reluctant at first because of prices. I saw Mrs . Lacy H online and after already seeing great reviews I decided to reach out via email to discuss my case. Mrs. Lacy was very understanding and was very willing to negotiate my price as well being that I could have well spent over 1,000 is dollars I ended up paying only roughly 5-7 hundred. After a few emails back and forth she was very straightforward and helpful regarding possible outcomes and reassuring me every step of the way and showing up promptly to my case. I felt very validated. Thanks for helping me get the best outcome for my case .

It has been an honor and privilege to have Sonya Dubree represent me for 2+ years throughout my divorce process. I am deeply grateful for her expertise, compassion, and dedication.
Sonya's partnership with Tharrington Smith (THS), alongside Steven Mansbery's representation, allowed them to expertly manage my divorce case, including the complex business and financial aspects involved. Their exceptional efforts led to favorable outcomes, including temporary spousal support, successful contempt motions and orders, attorney’s fees, and alimony. Although delays were unavoidable due to the defendant’s non-compliance and intentional obstruction—even in defiance of court orders—Sonya and Steven navigated these challenges with remarkable skill and professionalism, ultimately securing significant victories on my behalf.
I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Sonya, Steven, Monica, and Carolynn for their outstanding work during my alimony trial. Sonya’s opening statement was deeply compelling, compassionate, and credible, showcasing her commitment to my best interests. She excelled in cross-examinations and demonstrated genuine care and understanding when questioning me. Steven’s dedication, exceptional handling of expert witnesses, and strong expertise in complex financial analysis were invaluable in addressing the business, accounting, and economic aspects of my case, giving me confidence in his advocacy. I also appreciated Carolynn’s support throughout the hearing; her presence made a meaningful difference, strengthening our case. Together, they navigated the defendant’s tactics with finesse and crafted expertly tailored filings.
The diligence and commitment of the THS team have not gone unnoticed, and I am sincerely grateful for all they have done for me. I feel truly fortunate to have had their representation. Throughout this process, I developed a strong bond with Sonya, who not only fought tirelessly on my behalf but also kept me grounded, providing both expert legal guidance and compassionate support. She is an exceptional attorney and a wonderful person, and I am deeply thankful for her. Despite the frustrations—particularly with the defendant’s failure to substantiate financial claims and expenses—Sonya and her team offered me something invaluable: hope for the future and a sense of peace as this chapter nears its close.

I had hired another lawyer, but replaced him as soon as I spoke with Mr. Little. James didn’t over promise, but gave me confidence he knew the anxiety this matter was causing, and the hope that he would have it dismissed entirely. He talked to me like a person, not a case file. Mr. Little did have the matter dismissed on the first court date, while I’m still waiting on the refund from the first lawyer.

I retained Mr. Demidovich to represent me in a divorce case. At the initial consultation, I knew he was the attorney for me. Mr. Demidovich took the time to review my documents and understand my situation. He was very direct as he laid out my options. His took my case on short notice and worked out a compensation plan that didn’t require me to sell my house and work two jobs just to retain his services. Mr. Demidovich worked with me when other lawyers wouldn’t.
Mr. Demidovich truly believes that one should try to negotiate a win-win settlement before marching into court. He was, nonetheless, prepared to litigate my case if my attempts to secure an amicable agreement failed.
I believe Mr. Demidovich’s knowledge and reputation as a fair, no-nonsense, seasoned litigator helped me to secure a fair and speedy divorce. I was truly blessed to have found this outstanding attorney!

I have nothing but wonderful things to day about Ms. Buyrn. She is very professional yet showed compassion which made me feel comfortable talking with her. She was quick responding to my questions and handled my case promptly and efficiently. Thank you so much Amanda!

Do yourself a favor! Appoint an adviser that can deliver. In my experience Amanda Buyrn was very professional while guiding with all I needed to know throughout the process. Her approach got me out of 2 deserved negligent tickets, needless to say saving me good money in insurance for the next 3 years. Needed to write a review which I barely do for this lady, thanks again.

I don't have a long history of speeding tickets but over the last year I've received 2 (both on I-40). I contacted Amanda and she responded immediately. We maintained e-mail correspondence in order that she could keep me informed of progress. Amanda took care of both tickets and I didn't receive any driving or insurance points.

Leslie was honest in assessing my action items to get my case resolved. She was my second attorney that I hired and she got results in a short period.
She was concerned with my case and my well-being as a person, and the well-being of my daughter.
She was fair, honest and did what it took to push the case to completion.
Best choice for an attorney with a good bedside manner and a common sense, realistic approach.

I feel extremely fortunate to have chosen AT Debnam and the Mueller Law Firm to represent me during my recent divorce. Not only did everyone treat me with exceptional professionalism at all times, they also made me feel more of a friend and less of a client. During such a difficult emotional time this meant a great deal. They not only excel at all legal aspects, but they also understand the personal turmoil involved. It was truly appreciated. AT was just magnificent at handling my specific case. Thoroughly prepared always, of course, and wholly focused on what was best for me. One of her greatest strengths, in my opinion, was her capacity to give me strong, rational advice and then listen to me when I perhaps wanted to do something a little different. This shows that she cares about the person and their situation first and foremost. Who wouldn’t want that when going through this ordeal? This sets her apart. From the professional approach to the personal touch, I could not recommend anyone higher than AT and my entire experience with the firm as a whole was exceptional.

I have been working with Mrs. Sarah Gerow and she has been amazing. I’ve also spoken to Mr. Mark a couple times and they are both very professional, patient, very understanding of my situation. I am updated on everything even calls me to inform me of the small to major updates. Mrs. Gerow does not rush me what so ever. Her communication is amazing. With inflation and everything being so expensive she doesn’t constant ask for me to put funds in my trust fund, but respectfully reminds me when I do forget. This goes to again point out she is very understanding of any situation. I can trust her with anything and everything without feeling judge or misunderstood. I also want to point out she is a “what do you want”, “this is what I think is best for you” and not a “I think we should do this or you should go with this and agree to that”, but as well has me fully aware of the possible good and bad outcomes. This firm is definitely not a what I’m used to hearing “some do it for the money and try to win”. This firm actually cares about their client, and clients money. Lastly, 100% military friendly/ knowledgeable. Both Mrs. Gerow and Mr.Mark have been able to answer all of my questions regarding the military without any hesitation or “let me get back to you on that”.
- gratefully appreciated Ms. Correa

Mariana has represented me for almost a decade starting with my separation in 2013. Unfortunately, I’ve needed her assistance navigating a difficult physical and legal joint custody of 4 children ever since. We’ve been through 2 parental coordinators (do not recommend), mediation, custody modifications and addendums, depositions of my ex and his multiple live in girlfriends (my personal favorite strategy), police and CPS involvement and attempted restraining orders. Much more but after awhile it’s just embarrassing.
Mariana has a good memory for my case which is super thick at this point. She once read 8 years of our family wizard emails before a deposition. Mariana has a good working relationship with her industry colleagues (when my ex hires and fires new attorneys Mariana gets them up to speed). Mariana is logical and non reactive. She thinks in terms of moves and counter moves.
If you are looking for revenge and want a man hating bulldog that will bury your opposition in motions and BS I would keep looking. Marina isn’t going to be your big sister, BFF or your therapist and charge you for it. If you want a thoughtful, smart, and responsive attorney that will represent your interests she’s a good person to have in your corner.

Mariana could NOT have been a better lawyer. She not only helped me through a difficult divorce but also an extremely contentious child custody battle. She was bold yet genuinely cared about me as an individual. In the courtroom she is calm yet fiercely capable. I cannot say enough good things about Mariana and she couldn't have a higher recommendation if you are looking for a family law attorney.

There is not enough room on this review to point out all the ways Mariana Godwin exceeded my expectations!
I am the father of a 6 year old girl, whose mother decided to cut me out of her life. For months, she did not allow me to have any communication, or visits with my daughter.
Mariana proceeded through the custody process extremely efficiently. All the email, calls, and discussions were extremely productive and led to a very strong case in court. Mariana is caring, extremely responsive (a rare trait in attorneys, i find), smart, well connected, and delivers results. More importantly, she is also very good at setting realistic expectations and wading through her client's emotions to tease out the facts and usable information. She prepared me well for my court date, always explained each step of the process very clearly, and made sure I was aware of all possible outcomes at all times (which greatly reduces surprises in an already emotionally difficult time).
In a scary and emotional time for me, Mariana provided guidance and results at lighting speed. The court awarded me more than I had hoped for, and I could not be any happier.
Some people are just excellent at their jobs-Mariana is one of them. You cannot go wrong with hiring her as to represent you in your family matter. It literally changed my life, and my daughter's.

I had several speeding tickets in NC dating back to 2001. I contacted Ms Bostrom and she immediately got back with me and we planned out a strategy to pursue these tickets. Seeing that the tickets were in several counties, Ms Bostrom had to do a bit of leg worked to make contact with several small county DAs. That was not an obstacle for her!
When all was said and done, Ms Bostrom somehow was able to get me out of a ticket that carried a possible suspension of my license,etc. I was able to pay other tickets and fines through Ms Bostrom and that was really great, seeing that I now live in New Jersey.
We communicated on the phone and via email and she was always forthright in what the possible scenarios entailed.
I'd suggest that you retain Ms Bostrom's services because she is that good. Thank you.

I received a speeding/revoked license ticket about 2 years ago while employed with a transit company. In order not to lose my job and my remaining driving privileges I was ordered to attend a driving class. Mrs. Bostrom was a great helper in getting me the information I needed in a fast and timely matter. Once class was paid for and completed I received a certificate as verification and Mrs. Bostrom presented it to the right person and charges were dismissed. She is SO great!!!

From the onset of the consultation with Sydney, I knew she was the right lawyer for my case. During the consultation she directly addressed all of the questions I had and thoroughly went through the details of the case with me. Once I retained her as my attorney, she crafted the best possible legal strategy for my case. While preparing for court, Sydney made sure all of my concerns were properly addressed and her years of experience were evident with the plethora of knowledge she has under her belt. She is someone you can trust to advocate for you and to work hard to get you the best possible outcome. I received the outcome I was hoping for in court and I am pleased that I chose the perfect lawyer for my case!

Michelle is highly recommended. She is an incredibly compassionate and understanding attorney. I reached out to Michelle in a panic, and she was extremely prompt with responding to me and got me in that day for a consult with her. Michelle was validating, and I needed that most in a hopeless place.
Even though she was not able to help me with one of my issues due to it being outside of her practice, she connected me with the right help and now I’m represented. I will be keeping Michelle’s contact in my back pocket for her to help me in the future, because I had the best experience I’ve ever had with an attorney. Thank you Michelle!

Just a personal note to say, "Thank you so much for the way you handled my case. You did an amazing and remarkable job, as I suspected you would after my initial consult with you!! After 6 years of pure hell!! I am so grateful to God and you that things are turning around in our life.
Thank you for "looking out" for us and making sure we are protected, and that I wasn't taken advantage of again.
I truly appreciate your professional skills, gifts and talents, and your kindness and compassion, as well. I felt like you were looking out for us... I have never seen a lawyer do that!
The compassion, care and strength that I received from you was so important to me. At no time did I ever feel as though I was just "another client", but an individual with individual needs. The patience and understanding I received by you lessened my stress level and allowed me to focus on the most important reason I was there... my son.

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.

- 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.

- 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.

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.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
