Superior!!

If your looking for a lawyer who is not only the best in town but affordable, trying istop looking you have found her!!! Not only does Elizabeth fight for what is fair and right , she actually cares. There was never a time in our situation that I felt I was in the dark or that my childs life didn't m...atter, that I wasnt just another client. Elizabeth is warming and extremly thoughtful and compassionate when it comes to your cause you are fighting for. We couldnt have asked for a better outcome. This attorney is one of a kind!!! It's great to see someone so honest, trustworthy and committed in your time of need.

Elizabeth N. Teelon is absolutely amazing!

Prior to hiring Ms. Teelon for my custody case, I had an attorney who financially and emotionally traumatized me against any legal representation. So much that I fired that attorney and attempted to represent myself. Little did I know that I was in over my head. As I was leaving the court house 2 wee...ks prior to my scheduled trial date, attempting to "prepare" myself for the battle I was soon to face-alone. It was then that I realized that I needed legal help. I had no idea what I was doing, I needed guidance. I was terrified; I am a young single mother who was just taken advantage of by my child's father along with an attorney who I paid to represent me in this matter. As I sat in my car and cried in desperation, I searched the web for different law firms, attorneys, legal assistance, something or someone who would guide me in the right direction. After several law firms giving me the "we can't help you...." or " we need x amount of dollars to even continue this conversation..." I landed upon Elizabeth N Teelon. The first consultation I had with her I knew that I found the attorney I was looking for to represent me. An attorney who is genuine, empathetic and personable. An attorney who is relatable. An attorney who truly cares about her clients and their happenings. An attorney with integrity, who is timely and reliable. An attorney who is always real and will prepare you for what is to come. Ms. Teelon has brought back my faith in legal representation. I truly believe Ms. Teelon is an angel who was sent from above; she was exactly what I needed at that moment. I would absolutely recommend hiring Elizabeth Teelon to represent you in your legal matter. Ms. Teelon is amazing at what she does and words cannot explain how thankful I am for her.

Outstanding and upfront

Elizabeth is an outstanding attorney she goes over and beyond your expectations . Elizabeth was our second attorney and we wish she would have been our first ,she makes fast progress and is a fair reasonable and honest attorney, She is worth more than her weight in gold I would highly recommend her t...o anyone fighting for what is right!! For me I couldn't have asked for more in my fight for custody of my daughter. If I could use one word to discribe her it would be fernominal.
