Finally justice

I can start by finally saying someone stop to listen to me. After eight years of fighting for custody of my children after eight years of having my ex husband take them away from me I met attorney lane. With little money and nowhere to turn and my faithgetting weak attorney lane assured me that no ma...tter what it takes she was help me fight. She did just that after back and forth with my ex husbands lawyer trying to make me look like the woman I'm not I finally got justice. It had been three years since I've last seen my children and now I think attorney lane for taking the time to work with me preparing me and getting me everything I wanted. If you looking for a good lawyer somebody who was sitting at courthouse and fight for you attorney lane is that lawyer.

DO NOT HIRE HER

I have used her in the past and basically lost custody of my child because of this so called lawyer. She was unprepared, and showed up over an hour late keeping me my ex-husband and the Judge waiting on her. Then asked me to come back to court on a different day because she was anemic and was not fee...ling good. I flew from Colorado and spent over 600$ on a ticket and could not afford to come back. Things did not go in my favor and I'm sure the judge was upset we were waiting on her. I lost in court and got a crappy deal as far a custody goes. I would never hire her I took her the BAR association and did not have to pay her the rest of my money we agree upon, the only thing was is I lost out on $2500. Needless to say do not hire her she is not good at all.

Current Client

I had my world turned upside down last year, when my 4 year old daughter was un rightfully ripped from my arms!!! I tried to fight with another attorney and she did nothing for me after 3,000 dollars to prevent anything from happening. I was heartbroken scared and torn in half by that lawyer. I looke...d around to try and find a lawyer who would hear me out and help me win my baby back. Then I found Meleisa Lane. After our initial appointment I left feeling confident she always called me to keep me updated and always made sure she had everything she needed to help me. She has been fighting tooth and nail for almost a year to help me get my baby back. I have always been able to get a hold of her and she has always made a 100% effort to call me and help me feel confident about our case. I have had times where I would call the office in a terrible crying fit scared about my case and started to self doubt. She always sat right on that phone with me and pretty much held my hand through the whole fit. I feel like I'm not just a client I feel like I'm a family member or a sister to her. She has been amazing with me and my case sometimes I have even argued with her to the point where I unknowingly raised my voice and she sat there and comforted me and calmed me down where as anyone else would have hung up or yelled back. she never does that to me she just talks to me and makes me feel confident and calm again. I love her soo very much for this. Child custody cases have the ability to turn people into wrecks!! But Meleisa has made this journey for the custody of my beautiful baby girl and my gift from above a less stressful one. our court date is almost here and were gearing up for our pre-court appointment and I know that when that day comes I'm going to walk in that court room head held high with her at my side and fight for my daughter!!!! I know I have a wonderful lawyer who is there to fight for whats right for my child and me and am so proud to call her my Lawyer! Shes always there for me and when things start falling down shes there to catch them and put them back up. I thank God every day I found her. I would recommend her to anyone but know this you have to do some foot work as well to give her things she may need if she doesn't have it and if you are fighting for your child you know that as a parent you know whats right and you know your case better than anyone so you need to make sure you give her anything that is vital for her to have because she cant do it alone and it is your responsibility to help your lawyer so they can help you. I know this from experience I did the same for my old lawyer and she failed me anyways!!! So there was no excuse for her but I have given Meleisa everything I thought she needed and she helped me get the rest and has never left me stranded she has taken care of things and been on top the entire time!!! I don't know what I would have done this whole time without her. So in short sense I would recommend Meleisa Lane for your Child custody lawyer she smart funny kind and above all she gets the job done.. Enough Said. Christy T. A happy current Client.....
