Posted by Kevin | September 30, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Dem was my attorney (divorce/child custody)

When I found CURRAN MOHER WEIS (circa Feb 2016), I was in a place of hopelessness. I was going through a divorce; I had recently moved from my marital home and I had a young child. My ex-wife had been threatening to remove my only child from me and I needed an attorney who understood the pain and f...rustration I was experiencing. I was desperately in need of an attorney who knew the law, had a positive reputation in the courts and could present a convincing case on my behalf utilizing the facts that I would provide. During my indoc with Jason Weis, he mentioned to me that their firm had an experienced attorney who would be perfect for my case. The way Jason described/explained Dem to me, I instantly knew he was the guy. After the indoc, I literally cried tears of joy in my truck because I knew I found the perfect law firm and attorney to represent me. Dem has been representing me since 2016 and he has been in my corner 100% of the way. What gave me a renewed sense of self was the fact that Dem really believed my side of the story. He listened, he took notes, he studied the facts and he always followed through with whatever he told me he would do. Dem was more than just an experienced family law attorney looking for the next pay day, he was/is a teammate who actually cared and still cares. Long story short, after my divorce was final, Dem once again represented me in my child custody/relocation case in 2018. I could not have asked for a more articulate, professional and knowledgeable attorney during the most difficult time of my life. I now have custody of my child after all the hard work and dedication Dem put in throughout the years. If you are in need of an expert family law attorney, who actually cares, look no further. Demian J. McGarry is the attorney for you!
