Dimitra Scott at Beresford Booth Law Office is truly exceptional. She made my adoption process so much less stressful, which is no small feat given how complex and emotional it can be. Dimitra is incredibly kind, compassionate, and hardworking. Thanks to her efficiency and attention to detail, even though my adoption happened so quickly. She made sure every aspect was taken care of, allowing me to focus on the most important part: meeting and getting to know my newborn son. From the first consultation to the finalization of the adoption, Dimitra consistently demonstrated deep expertise and genuine care for my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney to guide me through such an important life event. If you’re looking for someone who is not only a skilled lawyer but also a caring advocate, I highly recommend Dimitra Scott.

My case was handled with care and protection and clear instructions. It's overwhelming to need legal support and Amanda and her team at Beresford helped make the process understandable and worked with me to fight for what was right. My outcome was successful, resulting in major peace of mind.

Amanda is a godsend. I had a tough time not only dealing with my child's father, but finding someone willing to take on a parenting plan not tied to a divorce. She was able to deftly navigate antagonistic emails in a timely fashion, made sure she was available at critical events and only billed for time spent, and protected my daughter and myself by making sure I didn't sign anything without her review. Amanda made a difficult and time-consuming process as painless as possible. I highly recommend her!

Amanda is very knowledgeable and compassionate. Her experience with family law is evident. She is a first class attorney with integrity. I wish I had worked with her to settle my divorce - she helped me (after my divorce had already been finalized for several years) with one item that had been lingering from the settlement and with parenting plan deviations that had cropped up.

Going through a separation is hard enough but having to go through it when a child is involved makes it 10x harder. While still grieving and being so confused on what to do next I contacted Amanda’s office to schedule a consult. During the consult Amanda was extremely mindful, understanding and patient, she talked me through exactly what needed to happen and even provided me with options on how she would be able to help depending on how much I was wanting to put into the process. After thinking it over I hired Amanda and asked that she handle everything and she delivered! The process was so easy and she walked me through it the entire time. Amanda’s communication was amazing and she made sure to respond to any questions I had either same day or the following business day. While working with Amanda I could tell she truly cared about me, when I would have guilt about any part of the situation she would listen and give me the best advice, she never pushed me to do anything I truly didn’t want to do. I can’t thank Amanda and her team enough for helping me through the hardest situation I have ever encountered in my life. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that is needing help. As they won’t be disappointed.

Could not have asked for a better Attorney to help me with my case. Amanda is detail-oriented and also able to see the bigger picture. She allayed many of my concerns during my case, and brought to light many different considerations along the way. She is calm, understanding but takes the bull by the horns, and fights for her clients. She gave me such an immense amount of peace, when dealing with a very stressful case. She and her team were always there to help explain my options and key decisions for my case.

Amanda was my attorney throughout an incredibly acrimonious and long drawn out divorce process. From the moment she first took on my case until the judges final decree I felt supported, protected and advised with sound counsel. My nature is one of compromise and peace keeping, leaving me I’ll equipped to meet the aggressive and dishonest approach my ex took towards our child custody conflict. Gratefully, I had Amanda by my side through it all. She managed to be assertive and stalwart in her defense against the false claims being thrown at me while simultaneously respecting my desire to not enter into a mud slinging war with the mother of my child. I really appreciated her ability to recognize and understand the human element of such emotionally charged legal proceedings while still maintaining a strong sense of professionalism. She talked me through the rationale behind various approaches we could take to the proceedings, always showing me my options and allowing me to decide how to proceed. I felt part of the process. That I was working with her as a team. In determining something as near to my heart as my relationship with my child, I cannot emphasize how grateful I was to have my voice and desires heard and respected as our legal course of action was decided upon. I would not have made it through such an excruciating time in my life with out Amanda’s compassionate counsel. I highly recommend her as your ally as you navigate what is undoubtedly a difficult time in your life.

Amanda was attentive and patient in helping me navigate a complex family law case. She was kind but also direct. I was grateful to feel I had someone in my corner who would protect me both legally and emotionally during the dissolution process. She is respected by judges, mediators, and other attorneys, and her strong reputation helped smooth out and streamline the mediation process. I highly recommend her expertise.

Amanda guided me a through a difficult divorce with significant monetary, child custody and fitness issues. She took the time to understand our family and provided me with excellent counsel on which to base my decisions. Not only did she finalize the divorce as I had hoped, but she did so efficiently and with an eye towards minimizing the cost.

Amanda Gamble accomplished what every attorney that I spoke with or worked my case told me was impossible, she changed an existing, extremely unfair, parenting plan and won 50/50 visitation and custody rights for my son and I. She effectively countered a web of lies and distortions and had a horrible and fraudulent CASA report set aside for ‘inherent bias’ against me. When the other parent kept dragging me back into court with further false claims Amanda won judgements against her for doing so! I can’t say enough about her wisdom and effectiveness. Additionally, it seems to have had a positive effect on the other party’s willingness to agree to work out issues between us on our child’s behalf. For the first time in many years I feel I was heard and treated fairly in court.
