Child support

Mr Doty was great with my child support case, stayed in contact with me and helped me with everything I didn’t understand. He also got my child support amount lowered.

Amended child support

Mr. Doty provided invaluable assistance with my child support case. From start to finish, his professionalism was evident. He was attentive and responsive, readily addressing any questions or concerns that arose. In addition, he took proactive measures to expedite my case as efficiently as possible. ...The final outcome was a resounding success in my favor. As a single father with limited time, Mr. Doty's legal expertise was precisely what I needed. My daughters and I are deeply grateful for his assistance and highly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal support.

Child support

I first reached out to Mr. Doty in 2020 about child support issues I was having. After a long battle we finally were able to get my support canceled because the kids are with me and have been since 2020. It sounds like a easy argument to make but trust me it was not. I would highly recommend Mr Doty ...for his knowledge and ability to see the case though.

An incompetent representative of the law.

I do not recommend Mr. Stephen Michael Doty as your family attorney. I went with him with a case of change of parental sharing time from my ex-husband, who was paying child support because in shared custody, I had most of the time and my daughter lived with me. Mr. Doty took my case without even ta...king the time to listen to the situation of the case, telling me that I did not have to worry because the father did not have the slightest chance to change the parental sharing plan in his favor. I took his word for it and hired him. After a year of the process, I ended up losing most of the time with my daughter and also paying child support and all the other demands that my daughter's father wanted to add, in addition to having paid a large sum of money to Mr. Doty for such absent legal representation.
