Good experience!

Good experience! My Lawyer was very knowledgeable of the laws in North Carolina and my results exceeded my expectations! In my personal opinion I felt my lawyer was very compassionate and willing stand up for me ! Thank You Collins Family Group!

They were always very responsive

This office was great for myself and my wife in a child support and custody case. They were always very responsive and detailed in their knowledge of the law. They are kind and focused on what is best for their clients. We were fortune not to have to go before a judge so I cannot speak to the perform...ance in the court room.

Always responsive and provided outstanding client service!

Isla Tabrizi, and all staff at Collins Family Law Group that I worked with, were always responsive and provided outstanding client service! My case was particularly long and troublesome (due to a variety of external factors) and Ms. Tabrizi was steadfast in her advocacy of my case, always balanced wi...th her recommendations, extremely competent in handling any challenging situation that arose, and in every way a consummate professional.

She was quick to respond to any questions

I worked with Jessica Price during a very difficult and emotional time. She was very helpful, caring, informative, and efficient when dealing with our divorce settlement. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns and was very clear in her explanation of the steps and terminology related t...o the process. I would most definitely recommend Collins Family Law Group and Jessica Price to friends and family. I plan to use Jessica in the future if I have any other needs, such as updating my will, etc.

  • 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.
