Impressed

While I began my search for a divorce lawyer I read all the reviews for multiple lawyers. I read a review about the Hayes Law Firm saying she was not friendly. I immediately called her. I didn’t need to find a lawyer that would be my friend but a lawyer that would get it done for me and she did!! Sh...e worked hard for me and didn’t put up with my ex’s bullying. She is great!! The office staff is marvelous, always ready to help and answer any questions you might have. No divorce experience is pleasant but they sure did make it better. Highly recommend them.

Thankful Client

I wanted to take a minute and give a review for my Attorney Linda Hayes. As some of you know when you find yourself in the middle of a divorce it can be a roller coaster ride of emotions and uncertainty. My situation was very sudden and though Linda’s schedule was very busy she took the time to meet ...with me and listened to my needs and concerns. She explained to me what I should expect in the next few weeks and helped me put my emotions aside to make the best decisions for my case. I couldn’t ask for a more professional attorney and staff that she has supporting her. The whole team went above and beyond to represent me and my future. I highly recommend her and have already to represent others. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of my case. Thanks again to the Linda Hayes Law Firm and her team for all the support.

Very Caring and Knowledgeable

Linda was my saving grace through my divorce! I'm very young and had no idea someone who claimed they love me would want to hurt me so bad. I got Linda on my side and she turned the tables. I'm no longer hurting or struggling. Don't be niave and think "he would never do that" trust me, he will and wh...en he tries, you want Linda by your side.

Straight to the point and knowledgeable

I went to Linda with absolutely no idea how to go about starting my Divorce process she handled it so quick and made it so easy. My divorce was finalized a month after I went to her and I was thinking it was going to be a long dreadful process. Thank you Linda! I highly recommend Linda Hayes!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
