Very Pleased!

Mrs. West assisted me in a modification of custody and child support case. She is very knowledgeable with the law, she is patient and kind. She always answered every email promptly and always offered great advice. She was very up front with me in a respectful way and helped keep me grounded throug...hout this process. She kept me fully informed throughout my case, so as an anxious person, this is what I needed. I always knew what to expect throughout the process. She always listened to my concerns and never made me feel rushed. When I didn't understand something, she was great at explaining it so I did understand. She always made sure that I understood and was comfortable with every decision we made throughout this process. She never made me feel forced into do anything I wasn't comfortable with. Mrs. West is very efficient and detailed in her work. Once we had an agreement, it was typed up and signed immediately. She is an amazing lawyer. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney! I have and will continue to refer her to friends and family in need of a Family Law Attorney.

Efficient and Knowledgeable

Ms West has been my attorney since 2012, she has efficiently resolved cases against my very hostile ex and his constant parade of attorneys. She helped me win sole custody of my son in a highly contentious case. Her disposition is always cheery and pleasant but she maintains a professional tone in al...l her dealings. She always provides solid legal advice and takes the time to explain and level set expectations. I highly recommend Ms West for any divorce/custody cases you might have.

Child custody

I spoke with several attorneys about my case before deciding who to use as my lawyer. Aimee seemed to be the best to me. And after working with her, I couldn't ask for better service/representation. She is very competent & courteous. I would definitely recommend Aimee.

Extremely Satisfied

I was quite overwhelmed when trying to decide on selecting and retaining an attorney to represent me with a marital settlement agreement and divorce proceeding and ended up being extremely satisfied with having Aimee West represent me. I have been more than happy with the level of service received a...nd the prompt handling of all matters associated with the process. Ms. West always responded quickly to my numerous e-mails and phone calls and thoroughly explained all issues. I could not have imagined getting such outstanding service.
