Haley, was so much more than just a lawyer to me. She quickly became someone I trusted, confided in and leaned on. The amount of care and passion she handled my case with, made it feel as if it was her own child at the heart of this case. I originally hired her only to handle updating and changing a parenting plan that was out date and needed revision. Not only had my child (still) not seen their father in over 2 years, but there was a DVOP against him and other complications that made this mess. The DVOP was due to expire around the time I hired her, and I had made it clear I could handle that on my own as I had the last two years prior and I only needed her for the original request.... well... cue me calling her in tears, in the middle of the day a couple weeks later, having a panic attack because I needed more help than I thought handling the DVOP. As embarrassed as I was to be so upset, she handled me so well. She took in all the information she could, reassured me, consoled me, and grabbed the reigns from there. THAT DAY, she has documents written up stating she would be representing me to all parties. Her attention to detail was astounding. She combed over 100+ pages of documentation and had our statement ready within a week. Not only did she come with enough information to handle winning that case alone, but she found past cases similar to mine to reflect WHY it should go in our favor, and by a landslide we got the DVOP renewed. She was so professional yet aggressive when it came to defending me or pointing out holes in the information the other party presented, easily discrediting any slander or false statements. When it came to editing/changing the parenting plan she really took the time to hear what I wanted and why I wanted it, and even (based on the DVOP case and how that was handled by the other party) provided ideas or things I hadn't even thought of to be better obtain our needs. She had seen first hand what I was dealing with in the other party and knew how to handle it with ease. She was diligent in chasing down the other party for things we needed, and never missed a beat when it came to keeping me up to date. She was honest when it came to the advise she gave, she told me when/if what I was hoping for was farfetched and also advised when I should be hoping for more. She was mindful of my financial situation as well, and really made sure to help there while still doing all she could. She wouldn't back down from something she knew was attainable even if it took presenting past cases, current situations or even going to court if through mediation we couldn't get what we needed to feel safe. Luckily in this case we were able to handle this through mediation, but if it was not for her fighting for me and my daughter I am not sure if it would be that simple. We came with a plan. An informed, well thought out, data supported plan that she wouldn't back down from to ensure we left feeling safe, confident and whole. She fought for me and my child like she was fighting for her own. She was upset when I was upset, she was happy when I was happy she was always there with me. Every step of the way. Mediation was a little over 6 months ago and it was amazing that something that is usually a really heavy, long, painful event, feels like a shining moment in the case overall. I cannot speak enough about Haley and all she has done for myself and my family. She is honest, hard working, LISTENS, cares about all aspects and really felt like a friend more than a lawyer. Her attention to details, honesty, straight forward communication and through process all just add to the already amazing lawyer that she is. She will forever be my go to when it comes to handling this situation. There truly are not enough words to convey how grateful I am for her. She is the BEST!
