This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Divorce, Custody and Support - Professional, Competent, and Successful

I went through a very difficult and painful divorce. My ex was seeking full custody and a fortune in support payments. Fortunately, I hired Tom and his law firm to represent me through my divorce, custody proceeding, and later with modification of child support a couple years later. He and his fir...m did a fantastic job. Tom is bright, detail oriented and has an in-depth understanding of the law. We had to go to court several times, but consistently had successful outcomes. He was extremely well prepared. His knowledge, of both the judges we faced as well as the different attorneys my ex hired, was very valuable. He seemed to change his case strategy and presentation style, depending on who was in the court room, placing emphasis on areas he felt the judges might be more interested than others. While I don't think there are any "winners" in a divorce, I do think that Tom and his law firm got a very favorable outcome for me. I have joint custody with a great schedule. Due to changes in my work, we decided to seek a modification in my support and he was successful in that case as well. I have recommended Tom to others, and he has successfully represented them as well. I will continue to strongly represent him to anyone looking for a great divorce lawyer. While I hope I never have to use Tom again, I know if the need ever arises he'll be the first call I make.
