My Ex filled a modification to get Custody of our son, I was extremely terrified and worried about the case, mainly because he filled in another county and the lawyer he had had tremendously great reviews. Mrs. Hatley has continued to reassure me through this process; she got the venue moved to the... correct county, She's extremely knowledgeable and aggressive (which I love) embarrassing the other lawyer in front of a judge and my ex and showing how well prepared and knowledgeable about family law she is. Her staff and she are amazing informing me of what my rights are and what I am entitled. We are so grateful to have found The Hatley Law Firm! We would highly recommend her to everyone! She's the best!

I was a client of Angela Hatley. What is negative about my experience with this lawyer is she took over 20 months to get permanent child support and 9 months to get temporary child support. Also in contract to try to have defendant pay lawyer fees. Instead of finishing her job like it stated in contr...act she filed a motion to withdraw as our attorney. She didn't even try if she would have filed paper work and fees were not paid by defendant I would have no issues. She did not answer my messages and phone calls for 6 months then she removed her self as our lawyer with a motion of withdrawal. She did not submit motion to have defendant pay lawyer fees.. If you want a long drawn out case pick her then have her not complete the job. The front office staff is also unprofessional the secretary will not let you know you have a court date. Are call you 5 min before court and say you have a court date or it has been canceled due to Mrs. Hatley having a more important court case. If you are a single parent and need the money for your kids. I would not use this lawyer you will go broke before you see a single penny from the other partner who owes child support. I hope this review helps other people and heed warning using this attorney.

This women had me get every piece of material for the case, she did nothing. Her paralegals has nasty attitudes and slacked on work while complaining about picking up a pencil. She scheduled cases I didn’t know about and the ones which was two, she was unprepared. She never consulted me, and she wast...ed my time and money by quitting 2 days after our trial date which I wanted 6 months for and another case took presidency. My children where taken from me and she did nothing to get them back, not even unsupervised visitation.

I just want to express my sincerest gratitude towards Angela Hatley and her excellent staff! I can't say enough about them. I'm a single father who had his kids taken from about a month ago due to serious allegations which involved: -potential criminal child abuse charges -restraining order -two of m...y family members testifying against me -Court continued 3 weeks in a row (During which I was never able to address the allegations once) -DSS worker who stated on the stand, "High concerns" with my children living with me, that she recommended I should "undergo anger management classes before I was allowed unsupervised visitation." During those three weeks of continued heartbreak I was so anxious to plead my case I actually stood up before the judge without being called on and was almost held into contempt. I'm so thankful for Mrs. Hatley's diligence for calming me down and reiterating the importance for me to control my emotions. She was very patient and understanding with me(even though I was so emotional I had an attention span like a fish). It turns out I NEVER EVEN HAD TO TESTIFY! The confidence and experience of Mrs. Hatley controlled the courtroom, and exposed all these allegations to be non credible, despite what DSS had said. She demanded respect in the court room, while she talked no one dared interrupt. The criminal abuse charges were dropped, anger management dropped, and was awarded primary custody of my kids. I NEVER EVEN HAD TO TESTIFY! GOD IS SO GRACIOUS TO HAVE LED ME TO MRS. HATLEY! Despite my constant worrying, I truly felt that Mrs Hatley shared my grief with me, and took my case personal and to her own heart. All the while I was so anxious to plead my case I almost got held into contempt for speaking without being called, when all along I didn't have to be anxious on nothing, but pray and put my faith in God. God had mrs. Hatley do all the talking for me, and I'm so greatful to HIM for her. If your not confident in your case because the world seems to be against you, consult the Hatley Law firm! Thank-you and God Bless
