Amazing Attorney

Attorney Rooks is an amazing Attorney. She made sure she gave 100%. I was confident that she was doing everything to ensure my best interest came first. She was always expressing concern for what was important to me and that is MY Child. She is the best and I am so grateful for her.

Respectable and Trustworthy

I have the privilege of having Ms. Rooks represent me for the past 6 years in two different family cases including a divorce. I had an attorney representing me in my first case and I was headed no where fast. I was seeking custody of my son and the odds were stack against me, from what I was being to...ld by my first attorney. Because I am a man I was told that it was next to impossible to accomplish gaining custody of my son even though the circumstances were completely in my favor. Needless to say, I hired Ms. Rooks and she fought for me from day one. She made sure my case was heard and that the facts came out and not long after I was granted full custody of my son. She is very knowledgeable and attentive to all the details that even before the outcome came, she had completely won me over. Her professionalism and tenacity was greatly needed in my case and I am forever thankful to her and her staff. That being said, years later when I ran into legal obstacles again I didn't hesitate to call on again. I knew I had no worries with her on the case and the best outcome was always on the table and achievable with Ms. Rooks leading the way. The outcome was once again favorable to me and my children, her advice is priceless and I can't say enough about her tenacity and willingness not to back down from any outrageous demands. Her confidence and courage is more than enough to lift you up, even in the darkest of times during court battles. I am telling you this will be one of the best decisions you could make choosing Ms. Rooks to go into battle with you. Having her charting your course will assure that you are on the right side of the scale, make no mistake this is the best thing you can do for yourself and your legal interest.

Shana Rooks got be justice

I was told prior to hiring Attorney Rooks that she was not cheap but she was good lawyer. I agree that you get what you pay for. I am a father who was awarded custody of my daughter. While it cost me a pretty penny, Ms. Rooks was great to work with and she got me what I wanted most. I don't agre...e with the other postings. I know she will withdraw from your case if you don't pay and I was on the verge of that but she worked with me.
