She listens!!!
She’s wonderful and she listens. After a less than great experience with a different attorney, and years of dealing with an abusive ex she was a breath of fresh air. I will recommend her to anyone. She gives you the time of day and she will fight for you.

Supportive and thorough
I retained Ms. Sholar when I had to move my SC court order to NC where my ex-husband had moved. She was patient with me and responsive to my email inquiries, and stuck with me through five court appearances to achieve a just result. I would highly recommend Ms. Sholar.
