Posted by Emma | March 07, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Emma Embree

Due to a very acrimonious divorce of one of our children we found ourselves not able to continue a relationship with our grandchildren. We were very close to the children and had helped raise them until the time of the divorce. The children was eight and six at that time. We retained Mr. Mills to ...file a motion to intervene and for visitation rights. He was able to get a fast court date and we was granted the motion to intervene very quickly. We was also able to see our grandchildren. The family court judge awarded us every third weekend and several holidays along with summer vacation time. Mr. Mills was very understanding of our concerns. He returned calls promptly and answered all of our questions. I am so happy we retained Mr. Mills to fight for us and the children. I would recommend him to any other grandparents out there who find themselves in a similar situation.

Avvo Rating

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.
