Estate / Minor Child

My ex-husband passed away unexpectedly at age 45 this past December, leaving behind an adult son and minor daughter. He did not have a will. Not knowing what to do, I contacted Blanton and his guidance was SO very helpful. Blanton was very caring and professional.

Financial consultation

After seeing Atty. Lingold's presentation on Law Call, I felt comfortable that he was the right person to consult with. I was right, he was pleasant, understanding and lastly and most important KNOWLEDGEABLE!

Happy mother

I used Mr. Lingold for a divorce case and a couple times for a modification of visitation. I'm a young mother and Mr. Lingold never told me what I wanted to hear in order to get my money (has happened with many other lawyers). He was straight forward from the first meeting. I never lead me on which m...ade each court date less stressful. He always had me stand my ground but also had me consider the fathers rights. I felt like he really cared. There were times I would message or call Mr. Lingold in the middle of the night or on a weekend and he was always right there. Even when I went on my own for a restraining order he still gave advice even without payment. I would never trust the well-being of my child with any other lawyer. Thank you Mr. Lingold

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I worked as the Juvenile Public Defender for many years, while Blanton handled conflicts in Juvenile Court. He is always professional, prepared, and knowledgeable. He is an expert negotiator, and when a case could not be worked out, he is an excellent trial attorney. When one of my own children got a speeding ticket, I reached out to Blanton to handle the case for me."

He has an unique ability to identify all relevant issues in a legal matter, which allows him to analyze both the strengths and weaknesses of a case. Blanton has a sharp legal mind, a strong work ethic, and the knowledge/experience to handle complicated legal matters. All of Blanton’s qualities combine to make him a formidable adversary or a valuable co-counsel in the legal field."

  • 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.
