Our Reputation
Though we can’t guarantee results, and every case is different, we’ve had some pretty happy clients over the years!
Caitlin knows the law
I believe Caitlin knew the law and was able to put most of my concerns to rest. She really addressed things that I was worried about.
Sheera gave me information I never could’ve found
Sheera Herrell anticipated my questions almost before I could ask them. She provided thorough explanations of the process and my various options. The ease with which she presented the information and the fact that she made me feel completely comfortable. If or when I decide to proceed, I will definitely hire her. I just haven’t decided yet. There’s a lot to consider. I could never have found all this information on my own. She explained things rather than just presenting the facts. Although I have never sought a family law attorney, I believe I’m an excellent judge of character. To me, that is more important than some success rate.
Lorna is helping me through a tough time
I am a mom with two children from two dads. When I spoke to Lorna, she was realistic and patient. I am looking forward to her help in this process.
Ashli helped me see that I am done!
Ashli was just really attentive and got my brain considering options I hadn’t before. Now I’m not going to wait two years. She didn’t gasp at anything, but she allowed me to realize how over his mistreatment I really am. Also, I didn’t feel pressured to do anything. I was planning on waiting 2 years to get out of this horrible”marriage,” turns out I’m done now. I highly recommend this firm.
Caitlin Walters was knowledgeable and honest
I am specifically looking for an attorney with military divorce knowledge and experience. Caitlin listened with understanding. I attended a Saturday session years ago. This helped me understand the one on one process w/moving forward. I am working on collecting the money needed for the retainer and looking forward to working with this team.
Caitlin made me feel at ease
I am a working mom with two beautiful girls. It was very easy to make an appointment with the firm. Caitlin Walters was very helpful in explaining how things would look depending on the situation and cooperation of my spouse. I have a good feeling about the firm’s values.
Lorna is very kind
Lorna is making a very difficult time easier to navigate through. She’s kind, doesn’t tell me what I want to hear but what I need to hear, and was reassuring and understanding. I am a separated mom of 2 daughters and currently working on going through a divorce. She was very reassuring and kind.
I feel more confident
I am a separated mom with one child. I feel confident after speaking with Ashli that she can help me with my case. She is easy to talk to and down to earth.
I feel confident after my consult with Mrs. Rhoades
Lorna was very kind and informative. She did not make me feel uncomfortable and made me feel like she was actually addressing my concerns, needs, and my interests. Previously I met with another attorney who made me feel uncomfortable about my situation and as though I was not entitled to anything. However, Mrs. Rhoades did not make me feel uncomfortable and made me feel like she was actually addressing my concerns, needs, and my interests. She was informative and encouraging. I learned a lot during my consultation and feel confident and comfortable moving forward with my divorce.
