Great Lawyer

I came to Winter a few years ago for my divorce, and child custody case. She is very reliable, gets great results for you, and makes it extremely convenient for you to continue with your work life and personal life while, she works hard for you. She gave me the confidence I needed to stay positive, I... was treated as more than a client she gave me advice like a friend would. I appreciate everything she did for me and for making it easier to deal with the proceedings. If you’re looking for someone who will fight for you like family and always have your best interest at heart. Do not hesitate to hire Ms. Spires she will not let you down

What a excellent attorney Winter Spires is….

Contacted her her over my daughters child custody case. She answered 24/7. She handled it in a very effective and professional manner. Months later had a harassing neighbor and she nailed it! Everything stopped! Her rates are very reasonable and she truly works to your advantage! You couldn’t pick a ...better attorney. I would and will hire her again.

The Lawyer the you need in your corner

I had a very nasty divorce with lots of complicated issues. Ms. Spires and her staff were always available for me to discuss the issues of the case. Ms. Spires was aggressive in her representation of me and helped me reach my desired outcome. I would very much recommend her to my family and friends. ...

A real advocate!

Winter and her team went above and beyond to provide support and the best legal minds out there. I knew I needed an attorney to help me fight for my daughter but what I didn’t realize is that with securing Winter and her team it came with much more. This team is very committed to their clients and t...heir cases. They bring families together and give hope when sometimes you feel there isn’t any. Not only do they provide the best legal support , they actually care and make you feel valued. Thank you to this team and I will be forever grateful.

Best Attorney I Could Have selected!

Ms. Spires and her staff were very attentive to my needs. They were timely in responding to my needs and she was very aggressive in representing my case to the court. I truly believe that my positive outcome would not have occurred without Ms. Spires and her legal team.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
