Attorneys that truly care!

I had the pleasure of speaking with Michael and Amy both at the beginning of my case, but it was Amy that I worked with and I was very pleased with her! It was a long process but she went to bat for me in every way possible! Long story short, we won! I now have custody of my daughter and can sleep at... night! Amy genuinely cares about her clients and their case so I felt very comfortable working with her! If you're looking for a lawyer that will listen and help you then you have come to the right place! I would definitely hire them again if I needed too, and I highly recommend Meadors Family Law, you will not be disappointed!!!!

We won!!!

Mike and Amy were amazing! I was so nervous and stressed and they made the experience as stress free as possible! They were informative and knowledgeable about the whole case. Always willing to help and there when I needed them! I was impressed to say the least! If I ever need a family attorney again... I will choose them! Thank you Mike and Amy for everything you did for me and my little man!

Difficult child custody case with excellent family law attorney

I contacted Mr. Meadors over the Christmas holiday not expecting a response. He not only responded within 20 minutes but he followed up with 6 other emails, even before I gave him any money. This lawyer knows his family law and really cares about protecting children.
