Great for high conflict

I am grateful I chose Amos for my high conflict divorce and custody case. He took my safety concerns for me and my kids seriously. His advice and advocacy not only kept us safe during the divorce process, but also resulted in full custody post divorce. He was responsive and his advice was always spo...t on. It was very reassuring seeing Amos in action and I am impressed by his ability to quickly assess my situation, priorities and goals, recall details of my case over the course of a year and reach an agreement. Thank you Amos!

Truly the best!

I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional legal representation provided by Amos Whitney. From the outset, he handled my challenging case with utmost professionalism and a deeply personal touch. Facing a situation that could have dragged on endlessly, Amos consistently prioritized my best interests..., as well as those of my children, and I trusted his advice implicitly throughout the process. My case was far from typical, requiring constant communication, and Amos was always there, responding promptly no matter the time of day. His responsiveness and expertise gave me a profound sense of security during an incredibly difficult time. I genuinely believe I couldn't have navigated through this process without Amos's guidance and support. He combined professionalism with a personal touch that made me feel like I was discussing my case with a knowledgeable friend. I am so thankful to have been referred to Amos. Our ability to avoid court in such a contentious situation highlights his exceptional skill. His dedication, expertise, and personal commitment were invaluable, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone seeking not just legal counsel, but a trustworthy advocate who really cares about their clients. He achieved the best possible outcome for me and my children, and for that I will be forever grateful. He truly is the best!

Above and beyond

I was referred to Amos by a coworker after I fired my first attorney. From the moment we had our initial meeting via zoom, I knew I made the right decision by hiring him. My divorce process dragged on for about 16 months; he went above and beyond every step of the way, always reassuring me and handli...ng every curveball professionally and with compassion. Amos was not afraid to tell me things straight up, somewhat using tough love at times, but I knew that it was always because he was looking out for me and my children and always had our best interest in mind. He made himself available on vacations and time away when I had questions; he made the effort to make sure my mind was at ease throughout the entire process. No one wants to go through divorce, but I knew that with Amos on my side, I would end up “winning.” I’m truly grateful that there are lawyers like him that go above and beyond to support and represent their clients during such a trying time. If you ever find yourself in need of a divorce attorney, you don’t need to think twice about having Amos represent you. He truly is the best.

Thankful to have hired Amos

I couldn't recommend Amos more. Divorce is ugly and Amos helped me keep my cool through a lot of emotional drama. He explained everything thoroughly, walked me through all of my options, and helped me make the best decisions to end this awful process. He became my advocate. He was thoughtful in h...is communications and always made time for me-- whether it was to talk me off the ledge or make suggestions on how to message things to my impending ex in a manner that helped move things along. He is cognizant of how expensive this process is and I always felt like he kept that in mind as we planned our next move. My divorce had been stalled for months until I hired Amos and with his help and guidance, we were able to avoid court and come to an agreement in a year, despite constant roadblocks by the other party. He took time to get to know me, my kids, and my situation, and for that, I'm forever thankful.

Amos followed up

Years after my divorce, the firm held the deed to one of my homes. Once the home was paid off, I contacted Amos and asked if he would follow up on the deed transfer. He did, and stayed on it to make sure the transfer was done correctly. I appreciated his time and concern for me that everything wen...t well.
