OK for a Lawyer, FANTASTIC for the price
I was very nervous when learning about this law firm, primarily because I am a worry wart and constantly afraid of getting swindled. I was very relieved to find that they were great and I was reassured with all of the information Amanda's law firm provided. Pros: I didn't have to go to cour...

Not sure yet
Not sure how this will handle yet. Went through the process of the complaint divorce form so I'm ready to go just need to pay for my divorce. The service seems ok.

Unprofessional, judgmental, and failed to answer legal questions
I asked a specific question about property recovery and evidence preservation, but this attorney ignored the legal inquiry entirely.

Replied last May 15, 2026You seem a bit entitled if you are asking if you can sue your parents and / or file criminal charges against them. Here's your question: I am 17 and my parents took the two phones that my boyfriend bought for me, what can I do? I am a 17-year-old residing in North Carolina, and both of my phones have been taken by my parents without my consent. These phones were gifts from my boyfriend, who pays for the plan. Despite my negotiations, my parents deny having taken or seen the phones. One phone was taken on December 15th, and the other Jan 22 around 5:30-6 PM. I can prove one phone is still in their room via "Find My Device," though they have turned the other off. I am seeking legal advice on how to proceed to retrieve the phones legally, potentially involving the police, and whether I can take action through small claims court. And here my response which another attorney agrees with: You are seventeen and still a child. When you turn 18, you can move out and make all the choices you wanna make. Until then - do what your parents say.
