Bulldog!!

Maria represented me on a child support and contempt issue. I hired her because my ex-husband was failing to pay me my child support and was constantly keeping my child on my days. Maria immediately filed a motion for contempt and was able to get me a hearing date very quickly. Although I was very... nervous about the hearing as I had to testify, Maria made me feel very calm. Maria questioned me in the hearing and my confidence rose. When my ex's attorney began to question me I became nervous, but Maria objected to many of the ridiculous questions my ex's attorney was asking of me and the judge agreed. I felt so confident knowing she was right there protecting me. When Maria questioned my ex-husband my jaw literally dropped. She was like a bulldog. She was very professional but was able to completely show the judge that my ex was not being truthful. The judge ruled in our favor and not only did the judge order all the back child support be deducted from my ex's paycheck, but she also got it where my ex had to pay my attorneys fees. I very highly recommend Maria and should I ever need an attorney again, my first call will be to her.

Agressive and Caring

I hired ms. henderson to help during my divorce. I had another attorney who talked down to me and was completely unhelpful. A friend recommended Ms. Henderson so I figured it couldn't hurt to call. From our first meeting until the very end, I felt completely confident in Ms. Henderson's ability. She... even gave me her personal cell phone and took my calls on the weekend. Her staff was friendly and knowledgable and she was amazing during my trial. She stood by me every step of the way and didn't take no crap from my ex or his attorney. Her fee was reasonable and she even allowed me to make payments. I would sincerely recommend her to anyone facing a divorce or family law issue.
