Posted by anonymous | June 01, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Divorce and Child Custody Hearing

I hired Ms. Sasser to handle my divorce and child custody proceedings. She was extremely thorough when we met to discuss my situation. Having no knowledge in the laws regarding this, I needed her to explain in depth what I was about to go through. We went the mediation route in order to not go throug...h the court and all its costs. I was very happy in the end. She is now helping me with another situation and we are currently working through this.
