Fighter, knowledgeable, reliable!

Where do I begin. I had three attorneys before stumbling upon Amy. The day I found her was equivalent to winning the lotto to my life. She saved me. She fought so hard for me, fought so hard for my daughter (bc her law guardian failed in doing so) and pushed all limits to make sure we were safe, happ...y, and heard. Amy never backed down, never acquiesced, or conceded to make sure things would be right. She knew the laws better than any other attorney, did her research, and reached out to her contacts and resources to confirm and even just to get their input to ensure a win for me. Amy always took my calls, returned my emails in such short time, and always always kept in touch ASAP when we awaited to hear news from court. During the worst and scariest time of my life, Amy quickly shifted from just my legal representation to family as she fought so hard for me. I truly felt her connect to my problems and take some of the burden I carried to share it on her shoulders. I was truly blessed to find her and to this day, even though my case is over, call to chat as she will forever be a staple in my life. If you want to win, if you want someone who will fight for you until you get what is right, If you want someone who will fight for your kid(s), if you want someone knowledgeable in law and the system, if you want someone who answers your calls, emails, and texts- you’ve just found her.

Great Attorney for all matters.

I hired Amy to handle my divorce after interviewing various attorneys. What I liked from the start is that she did not push to close me. She was very informative and did not try to over promise on what could be achieved. I hired her after 2 months of the initial consultation. As a father I knew t...he deck was stacked against me but the outcome was amazing. I got my children 50/50, which was what i desired the most and a few other positive outcomes. You just have to listen to her because all depends on your situation on work schedukes and how much your partner works and such, but I do not think I could have selected a better attorney for this matter. Adam is another attorney for the firm that worked with Amy and he did a great job as well. Great firm.

She is the best!

Amy has been my lawyer for over 20 years. She has won all three cases I hired her for! She really is the best there is. I highly recommend her to everyone. She is so caring and passionate. Her professionalism and conduct in the court room are outstanding. The most recent case I hired her for she ...was able to settle on a custody agreement that was way more beneficial then expected. Actually the custody agreement that was settled on was so rare to get granted; but Amy was able to get it done! HIRE HER! She will defend you as if you were her own family. SHE IS THE BEST THERE IS! Thank you Amy for always being there for me. For always requesting all the request I made. There are not many people nor lawyers out there like you.

More than a lawyer

She helped me with custody of both of my children, she was able to help me obtain the most visitation time compared to what was offered by tre court and she is very understanding and knowledgeable and is always there with legal advice and even helpful in speaking to my ex when we have difficulty comm...unicating.

Custody case

Amy provided me with excellent service regarding my daughters custody case. She was efficient, timely, and handled any matters that came up so that I didn't have to worry. She gave me sound advice and I was happy with the outcome of the case.
