“Nice” but it’s a legal game

Custody cases are complicated . Attorneys are your personal recruiter. When I initially retained Ms. Williams , I had high expectations. She seemed knowledgeable, she seemed understanding, so I took that risk. Using any attorney is a solid risk . In my personal experience, my expectations were not me...t . Ms. Williams had many opportunities to be 100% transparent, and she wasn’t . She had opportunities to take certain steps to preserve our case , but she didn’t . At the end of the day , I walked away with the feeling that I lost heavily . For myself , my child , and my family .

Divorce and Custody

Leigh Anne was professional and courteous through out the entire process. With 2020 being a bit of an unknown, she kept me up to date with all latest happenings/milestones. Thanks to her for making things as painless as possible.

I Couldn’t Have Found Better!!

I was referred to Leigh Anne by way of another attorney in my office building. Leigh Anne was very attentive, knowledgeable, professional and informative with each meeting. She was capable of answering every question and never left anything undone. I believe her professional fees are fair and coincid...es with the excellent work she provides. I didn’t have to worry about anything. I am so fortunate to have connected with her during an extremely sensitive season of my life. Thank you Leigh Anne!!
