Highly Contested Custody Battle & Divorce

Highly contested divorce and custody battle. She worked miracles and I was able to maintain my sanity over the 19 months. Each one, help one! She is the GOAT. The attention to detail, strategic moves, and she knows the law in, out, bawkward, and forward. Nothing trumps experience. Hands down. Sh...e will for fight you. I’ve referred 2 friends to her during this timeframe and all maintained her as counsel. Must I say more!!! Don’t hesitate.

Amazing Lawyer

I will be forever grateful for choosing Tammy as my lawyer to represent me during my divorce and custody hearings. She was my strength and fire when I no longer had it in me to keep going. My case lasted over two years and Tammy never wavered with her hard work and motivation to keep fighting for me... and my kids. Her work ethic and communication is incredible; always available to inform me of next steps. In the end, I won, keeping my children full time, which was the most important aspect of my divorce. Tammy has become a life long friend whom I continue to keep abreast of my new journey and milestones my children reach.

David and Goliath

Choosing Tammy as my lawyer has and will always be one of the best decisions I’ve made in life. She worked with me to successfully win my custody battle and keep my kids. My custody case was an uphill battle as my ex had infinite resources and hired a team of lawyers to represent her. Tammy alwa...ys worked hard and ethically. She always looked out for the best interests of my kids unlike my ex’s lawyers who seemed to be using them as pawns in a game. In the end we worked together gathering the evidence for my case. Tammy presented a superior argument to the judge leaving my ex’s lawyers speechless trying to pick up the pieces and salvage things. Tammy was in it with me during the good and the bad, always keeping my moral up as I struggled to manage the case, work, and being a good father for my kids. She is now and will always be a life long friend. I will always be grateful for her help when I was in the trenches and in dire need. You are the best of the best!
