Posted by Wendy | May 10, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Debt Settlement

Great communication, very caring lawyer and firm

This has been a long process for me, over 3+ years, starting with my divorce, and then later with the need to get my ex husband to pay debts that put liens on our former marital home. I hired this law firm to help me with everything. Shelly Ingram and her staff (Laurie, Jessica, and Qarman) were very... attentive, professional, and detail oriented from the start, never giving in or giving up, and always precise and fair, through every legal document they wrote up, every phone call they had with me or on my behalf, during every court hearing, preparing me for court, and with every negotiation. They answered emails and phone calls promptly and put legal terms into layman’s terms so that I could understand exactly what was being done. I was very happy with the outcome of the divorce settlement and feel that I got everything I wanted out of it. I originally chose her firm based on reviews and general profile and I was very pleased that I did.

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.
