This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Ms Madden dosnt understand that my dad is a lier and a theif.

I was giving Ms Tara Madden by the Family court and she not giving me the right information about that my character witness can't be in the court room holding my hand hand keeping me calm. She also dosnt understand that my dad is lying under oath and he needs to be required to be held in contempted ...court because he lied and said that I threw a kitchen chair at him which I'm psychically disabled and walk with a cane. I can't even lift up a kitchen chair and he's accusing me of stealing his heart medication which my cousin was over the house and he misplaced his medication. It was under a whole bunch of papers. He's a hoarder and a compulsive lier and under the dsm5the psychiatric diagnostic book he has a definite mental health issues. He don't know reality from fact. He also lied to the NYS DMV to get out of taking his driving test again. He said he had to go to Florida in an emergency which he never did go. He's been abusive all my life to me and when my mom got sick with cancer he didn't want my mom to get a hospital bed . That's why two home care agencies left because he wanted the girl to do his laundry and to clean up after him.

Very helpful and knowledgeable

I hired Tara to help me with a custody case. At first I didn’t think I needed an attorney but things took a turn and I decided to hire Tara. Good thing I did! She was able to get me everything I wanted and still keep things amicable. She was super straight forward and laid everything out in a way I u...nderstood. I also appreciated that she really cared about me and my family and wasn’t only interested in the money. In fact, when it came to the money stuff she was very affordable. At the end I felt like probably should have paid her more because she did such an amazing job.

BEST Attorney

Tara is the best attorney I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She really helped me and my family when I was falsely accused of a crime I did not commit. She was super compassionate and very informative during the whole matter. I felt completely at ease knowing I had her in my corner. You sh...ould absolutely hire Tara Madden with Madden Law!

No other custody attorney comes close

No other custody attorney comes close to Tara Madden. Her professionalism, honesty and hard work surpasses the competition. She is tremendously knowledge in the area of child custody law/ family law and will be my forever go to attorney for these issues. She helped guide me through my very tough cust...ody situation and I will be forever grateful. Highly recommend her services, and she is even affordable.

Awesome DWI attorney

Tara is an AWESOME attorney! She helped me with a DWI and I was VERY happy with the outcome. She took the time to explain every step of the case. She was extremely knowledgeable about all laws involving DWI‘s. I always recommend her to all my friends and family who need a criminal attorney. You will... be on GREAT hands if you hire Tara Madden!!!
