Phenomenal representation

If you genuinely fear for your children’s safety, and you feel like the deck is stacked against you when it comes to your future involvement in the lives of your children; Mr. Tanner is equipped with the experience and expertise to do legal combat on your behalf. He is a legitimate heavyweight in fam...ily law. He can level the field for you. As a subject matter expert, Mr. Tanner has a clear grasp on all aspects of how military service impacts family law. He immediately began to aggressively defend me at a critical junction in my case. It is impressive and humbling to work with people at the top of their field, and that was my experience when working with Mr. Tanner. I had his mobile number and he was very responsive. Because, of the interest and personal attention this man and his Paralegal, Mrs. Caling took in my case, my child now safely lives with me against great odds, and I can make most of the decisions necessary to keep her safe . He listens more than he speaks and presented me with options that I previously did not know were available. He was also able to preserve my military pension and shut down the opposing party’s alimony claim as a bonus win. You get what you pay for. He is a value buy at his current rate. If you have a case that doesn’t fit nicely into a templated pre-made order and could potentially go to trial, don't blow your opportunity. If your kids are in a dangerous situation or a bad environment, you can't put a price on that. It's worth more than everything you've got.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
