Tammy was available, helpful and clear. I had a very easy divorce - but there were still numbers of steps and she talked me through them. She advocated for me and if I chose not to go in a given direction she explained the options and challenges I might face but then allowed me to make the best deci...sion for me and my family.

Tammy represented me in a messy divorce case. She provided very candid and professional representation – it was a David v Goliath endeavor. Not only did she have to deal with a very difficult client, she had to defend against accusations that are currently in the guilty until proven innocent catego...ry, even without any evidence. She hit the ball out of the park!!! Coming from me, that’s a real compliment since my view of a soldier attacking a machine gun position is part of his job so he should get a “C – average”. I told you I was difficult.

Tammy is very professional, honest direct. Consulting with her was a very valuable decision for me and I thank her for time and effort counseling me. As a father though in a very non-standard situation I felt substantial but incomplete compassion for the intricacies of my particular situation as a ...dad who loves his kids while still working to find his way to better income, and for a few minutes I felt I was talking to a judge rather than an advocate. Perhaps this is the approach of some lawyers to keep their potential client "in check"? Couples of things were remarkable to me 1) the sentiment that time with kids benefits the parents. It actually does, but I was under the impression that legal professionals pretend to be blind to this fact in order to bring a laser sharp focus to the "best interest of the child." 2) I take issue with laymen as well as judges and lawyers judging a child support amount as "low or high" based solely on the number, when a correct judgement is only arrived at by considering incomes, overnights and several other important factors. It is frustrating that many people are quick to say a payment of $250 per month for 1 child for example is "low," without asking how much each parent makes or what the custody situation is. Also the comment appears not only blind but insulting to the fact that support payment is usually the MINOR PART of only the monetary component of that parent's support. Lawyers and judges should make it routine to publicly acknowledge this. This says nothing of course of the nonmonetary less tangible aspects of parental support of both parents. My wish is that lawyers and our society will come to this broader understanding and expression of what is really involved in being a noncustodial parent.
