Posted by Kayla Prather | October 08, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

I'm upset that 5 stars is all I'm allowed!

Every person at LaFayette Law offices displays extreme dedication to each case individually. I worked specifically with Mrs. LaFayette and her paralegal, Shaunna on my child custody case. I am thrilled beyond words that it has come to an end finally, however, I will miss working with each of them. Th...ere were times when all I wanted to do was cry and scream and rip my hair out over the last couple months, but they all took the time to calm me down and assure me everything would work out. Even when I needed them sometimes in the middle of the night, they took the time for me. They were always upfront honest with me in saying that what I may have been asking for was unrealistic or may not have turned out the way I planned. I was always prepared for the worst, which I liked. It always seemed as though I was the only client they were working with and I applaud them for their efforts in that, as I know it wasn't easy at times. They are very reasonably priced even though nothing legally is cheap. I got way more than I paid for, that's for sure!! Hopefully I won't, though if I ever need legal services again, it won't be a question in my mind where I would turn.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Compassionate, knowledgeable and no-nonsense, Renee is one of the best family law lawyers I know, and is a credit to the legal profession. She has a reputation for not backing down, and is fearless when it comes to zealously representing her clients in court. That said, she also knows when it is appropriate to settle a case, and endeavors to obtain the best result possible for her clients. Her knowledge of family law is unparalled, and I routinely consult with her when confronted with an unusual situation in my practice."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
