I hired Teresa to represent my family and I in a custody case back in 2012 with my daughter and her biological father. My husband (only dad she has ever known) has been in her life since she was 3 years old. As my daughter got older, she wanted her last name to be consistent with everyone else in our household. She also wanted to know why “daddy’s name wasn’t on her birth certificate. We sat her down and explained everything to her. Because she was 12 years old she was able to make the decision for herself and wanted the only dad she’d ever known to adopt her. Teresa’s services was recommended by a couple of other satisfied clients, so I reached out to her. Let me just start off by saying that Teresa was professional and thorough! She informed of everything that needed to occur to assist our daughter with getting her last name changed as well getting “her dad’s name” (my husband) on her birth certificate. He assured her that she would always be his daughter and none of that mattered, but for her it meant more than just a last name. As an athlete, she wanted his last name on her jersey when she dribbled the basketball up and down the court. In order, to make our daughter’s request happen, her bio father needed to sign his rights over. Well, he didn’t want to do that....just like he didn’t want to pay the years of child support that he was ordered by the court system to pay when she was a baby. He wasn’t an active part of her life financially, physically, or emotionally. But, to make a long story short, we faced a lot f opposition because her bio father wasn’t being supportive of our daughter’s request. Ms. Davis “worked her magic” and needless to say, he was forced to sign over his rights due to years of unpaid child support. Not only did he sign over his parental rights ro allow my husband to adopt our daughter, the judge made it mandatory for him to pay back child support (because he was listed as the father on her birth certificate during previous years) based on evidence provided by Ms. Davis!!! She is very knowledgeable, friendly, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants AWESOME representation!!!

I was very dissatisfied with Davis' performance. She started working only 3 days a week. Everything took months longer than it should have. I was told I would be called or e-mailed to keep me abreast of everything. I had to call to see if things were progressing. ( I was billed for calling of course) She would say she would let me know when something was done and never did. Documents I needed to sign before anything could continue sat on her desk and would still be there if I hadn't called to see what was going on. I honestly felt as though she was working for the other side. I worked 95% with her secretary. If you have lots of money, lots of time to waste and want to pay while you make sure everything is being done...Call T. Davis
