Shelly Maynard Ingram

Divorce is an emotionally charged event. There is no way around it. In my case the process took about two years. And from our initial meeting through the final decision, Shelly Ingram was a consistent and knowledgeable advocate. Ms. Ingram’s assessment of my case and the probability of going to tri...al was “spot on”. Though all attempts to negotiate outside of court were unsuccessful, Shelly and her team prepared me for each step of the process. Looking back I think I needed quite a bit of hand holding. In the midst of my trepidation, Shelly was upfront and realistic about the work necessary to move through court requests, mediation, settlement agreements/negotiations, custody agreements, and ultimately trial. Shelly’s team collaborated with other professional partners to unearth undisclosed information while working with me to create reasonable settlement proposals which were the core of the final settlement. The months of data gathering, calls, zooms, and data uploads were definitely unpleasant. However as the saying goes, “Planning Prevents Poor Performance”. When it was time for trial, the benefits of the planning and preparation were evident. I felt prepared for opposing counsel’s tactics and I knew what to expect each day of trial. In the courtroom, Shelly was prepared, organized, persuasive and passionate about my position. Now that the court has issued the divorce decree, I ultimately feel that I was represented well and I would recommend Shelly Ingram to anyone in need of this sort of representation.

Due to the pandemic and a generally uncooperative spouse, my divorce dragged on over 2 years. Shelly Ingram was with me every step of the way, and in that time-frame I was able to see the full spectrum of skills that Shelly Ingram possesses - whether it's collaborative divorce or going all the way t...o preparing for a contentious trial. We had issues such as property disputes, child custody, etc. and she was very knowledgeable about the law and the nuances of these arrangements. In the end, she was able to reach a settlement which saved me thousands of dollars. She was thorough, readily accessible, and professional throughout the entire process. I am very happy with how things turned out, and so very impressed with how she fixed what, at times, seemed like an impossible situation. On various hearings and other issues, I also worked with her associates Greg Votta and Jessica Gillespie. I would highly recommend them also. The entire team has been wonderful to work with. Divorce is something you hopefully will never have to go through, but if you do this is the office you want to represent you. Thank you to the Law office of Shelly Ingram!

Working with Shelly definitely changed the trajectory of my recent divorce! I was certainly lost, confused and almost got my case dismissed without her help. She came in and literally saved the day. She was knowledgeable, punctual and guided me step by step which calmed my nerves! Thanks to Shelly In...gram I am happily divorced and have full custody of my son, I can’t thank her enough.

Shelly did a fantastic job handling my full trial, divorce and custody case. She knows both the law and the nuances of judges and courts. She listened to me, she provided tough love in private when needed, and fully supported me in negotiations and court. My attorney fees were less than half of my... ex's fees and the end result, while not perfect, met all of my most important needs.
