Awful

I had to change attorney mid way through my divorce because I was being charged outrageously compared to the work being done. No legal advice whatsoever and I felt never had my best interest at any point. Don't waste your money! Plenty of other divorce attorneys out there. Do your research.

Trusted and hardworking Attorney

Amanda Gallardo represented me during my divorce and made it as quick and painless as possible. I believe she fought for me to get the maximum settlement and I was very pleased with the outcome. Her response time to emails were amazing, even on nights and weekends! When she would write me emails, ...she would bullet point and number different points, making sure she explained everything to me in a clear and concise manner. I even showed my friends and families (most of who have been in a divorce) some of the emails Amanda sent to me during the process. They were so impressed with her writing, format and explanations of every detail. They let me know that a divorce attorney like Amanda is not normal, because she definitely exceeds expectations! I feel confident that working with Amanda and MT in the future for my child custody issues will be handled successfully.

Divorce

Amanda was very responsive and knowledgeable. She saw my case through with what I consider to be very favorable results and as little stress as you could reasonably expect.

Bright, Responsive, Caring, Listens....... a true partner

I worked with Meriwether and Tharp for a number of years and I found the firm to be top notch and very professional. I worked primary with Amanda over this period and I could not give her enough praise. A divorce with children involved is one of the most painful experiences one with go through. Ama...nda approached my case with professionalism and the one word I need to add is "empathy". She spent time with me going over details and working strategy and was available when I needed her. I found she truly cared and that was very valuable to me. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an attorney and I would give her a sixth star if it was available.
