As a working, single mother, I filed for child support through DSS. I didn't think I needed an attorney because it was pretty cut and dry that I was taking care of my child and the father was not. My child had lived with me all of her life and I had done everything for her. I expected to be given a fair award for child support. On the child support hearing court day, my child's father whined, cried and complained about how he couldn't work and why he couldn't work. The family court judge fell for his sob story and awarded me a child support amount DEVIATED WELL BELOW the South Carolina child support guidelines. Unfortunately, I went before an incompetent, nasty, trashy, judge that discriminated against me because I was receiving DSS benefits. ( what this judge failed to realize is that if my child's father was financially supporting his child then I wouldn't have to fill in the gaps with DSS benefits...@#!!@@!!) And that's when the judge ordered my child's father to only pay me $200 a month in child support. The family court judge even told me that I didn't have to work!! I paid a pretty penny to get the court transcript but I have it to prove what the judge said. As a working, single mother who has sacrificed EVERYTHING for my child: DO NOT WALK INTO FAMILY COURT WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY!!! AND DO NOT WALK INTO FAMILY COURT WITH JUST ANY ATTORNEY!!!!!!! DSS AND FAMILY COURT ARE ON THE SAME SIDE. If you are receiving DSS benefits you will be looked down upon in the the eyes of family court!!! I hired Hayes Law Firm, Linda Hayes was my attorney. I got full custody of my daughter and child support increased to $750 a month. Linda is very experienced in the courtroom and knows exactly what cards to play and when to play them and that's what matters. The Family Court judges can't see what you're going through and they can't feel what you're going through. Linda has her way of bringing that into the light in the courtroom. Don't trust Family Court to give you a fair outcome. The judge I initially had, was very easily manipulated and profoundly ignorant. The latter judge proved to be more intelligent, classy and dignified. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT JUDGE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE!!! READ THAT AGAIN!! When it comes to your child or children, when it comes to your family, don't roll the dice and think everything's going to be okay if you walk into Family Court without an attorney. Even worse, if you walk into family court with the wrong attorney. Most of the time, the judge was speaking to my child's father and he was convincing the judge to feel sorry for him. And the judge was stupid enough to fall for it!!! Do not walk into Greenville County Family Court without an attorney. Now I have peace of mind. Now I know I have full custody of my child. My child will be safe, in good care, and raised correctly by my side. AND THAT'S THE ICING ON THE CAKE!!!!

Linda has been my attorney for my divorce and alimony court cases. She has always been efficient, aggressive and proven results . I will always reach for her for any & all my family court needs .

We have had the good fortune to use Ms. Hayes for a few issues and she just was such a blessing when we needed it most. You usually don't need a lawyer when everything in your life is going great. When you need one, you hope and pray to find someone knowledgeable, aggressive on your behalf, but also someone who understands what you are going through and makes you feel she has your back. Linda Hayes is all that and more.

While I began my search for a divorce lawyer I read all the reviews for multiple lawyers. I read a review about the Hayes Law Firm saying she was not friendly. I immediately called her. I didn’t need to find a lawyer that would be my friend but a lawyer that would get it done for me and she did!! She worked hard for me and didn’t put up with my ex’s bullying. She is great!! The office staff is marvelous, always ready to help and answer any questions you might have. No divorce experience is pleasant but they sure did make it better. Highly recommend them.

Hayes Attorneys are the best around. They are a small firm who delivers big firm results. Their care, attention to detail and their fight for you attitude is something you won't find any where else. Thank you for taking care of me and my family.

Linda and her team worked long and hard to decipher medical records and doctors’ notes in order to resolve my case amicably and fairly. If you need an attorney who can cut through the “red tape,” give the Hayes Law Firm a call!!!

I wanted to take a minute and give a review for my Attorney Linda Hayes. As some of you know when you find yourself in the middle of a divorce it can be a roller coaster ride of emotions and uncertainty. My situation was very sudden and though Linda’s schedule was very busy she took the time to meet with me and listened to my needs and concerns. She explained to me what I should expect in the next few weeks and helped me put my emotions aside to make the best decisions for my case. I couldn’t ask for a more professional attorney and staff that she has supporting her. The whole team went above and beyond to represent me and my future. I highly recommend her and have already to represent others. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of my case. Thanks again to the Linda Hayes Law Firm and her team for all the support.

Linda was my saving grace through my divorce! I'm very young and had no idea someone who claimed they love me would want to hurt me so bad. I got Linda on my side and she turned the tables. I'm no longer hurting or struggling. Don't be niave and think "he would never do that" trust me, he will and when he tries, you want Linda by your side.

I am completely pleased with the outcome linda has achieved for me and my little boy, mine was no easy case! The other party was very sneaky!! Even so they couldn't get around Linda!! She is very aggressive and definitely knows how to keep the ball rolling, and is also very experienced!! It's crazy because when I was young like 9, can remember waiting in the parking lot of the court house while she won custody for Uncle, I am 29 now she has been doing this a long time. I never thought I would need an attorney, but I am so glad I chose her she is so experienced and an is such a great person!!! A few things that stand out for me are the how good she keeps things moving, her reputation speaks for itself. One of my favorite moments was when the other party presented evidence of my temper, Linda instantly had it thrown out because there was no dates or times.. and she was sooooo fast!!! It was truly amazing and if she hadn't done that we would have been in a tough spot!!! I am very impressed, and happy with the outcome of my case!! I am very satisfied and she is worth every penny. I highly recommend this attorney. Also I try not to go to far into details of my case out of privacy, but my life is now perfect and I am better off than I ever thought possible because of this attorney and her experience, and actions!!!

I went to Linda with absolutely no idea how to go about starting my Divorce process she handled it so quick and made it so easy. My divorce was finalized a month after I went to her and I was thinking it was going to be a long dreadful process. Thank you Linda! I highly recommend Linda Hayes!

Linda Hayes gave me light when I had none. She is very understanding and straight forward. Explains everything you dont understand and works with you no matter what. She gives me hope for my case. I so pleased with my choice of hiring her. Would recommend!

My father died and Had issues with probate. Mrs. Hayes was recommended to me by a friend that had used her. Through the turmoil and tears, Linda guided me through the paperwork and helped me meet all deadlines. She was available every time I contacted her with questions and was very knowledgeable about the process. I highly recommend her to anyone needing an estate lawyer.
