Wonderful Experience! Yes Child Support Modification with a crazy Ex can be a wonderful experience with the right lawyer!

To say we (my girlfriend and I) had a 'wonderful experience' during one of the most stressful times of our lives sounds very contradictory but it was true. Amy was very fair in her billing, knowledgeable about all facets of my child support modification process and a true 'bull dog' as far as strate...gy and negotiation. She also gave us clear possible consequences to our decisions before we made a move which made us extremely comfortable throughout the whole process. She gave advice on issues large and small and was there whenever I had a question or concern. During my original divorce with my ex I had another lawyer that charged me three times as much and never gave me clear information about my case and I ended up overpaying child support and having a horrible visitation schedule with my children. He wrote very few motions and extended my case so long that I ran out of money and ended up with a horrible mediation agreement that I had been forced to live with for 5 years until I hired Amy. Amy was certainly prepared to go to court for us but worked diligently to avoid it and save us money and in the end we walked away (FINALLY) with a mediation agreement we were proud of. We finally got what we wanted without going to court which we NEVER expected! With my ex as difficult as anyone can ever imagine, we certainly had not set our expectations for a good outcome high but were amazed to see Amy pull it off. We literally ended up with even MORE than we had hoped in a best case scenario. My support ended up $150 mth less than we expected, I got the time I wanted for my kids and all of the horrible parts of my last mediation agreement were taken out. Amy is such a smooth talker, my ex is just now starting to realize the effects of the agreement she signed and its been great to have the ability to ignore her insanity due to my amazing mediation agreement. Amy starts with her game face in the parking lot and its all strategy from there. I was able to just sit back and watch knowing I was in good hands. She had control of the situation from the very beginning all the way through to the signing of my new favorite document. I would (and have already) strongly recommend Amy to anyone in need of a focused, driven, fair but strong negotiator. Amy has assured me that my new mediation agreement should see me through until my kids are 18 (11 years from now!) but if I ever need another lawyer she will be the one I will call.

More than I could have asked for in an attorney

I put a lot of thought and research into my decision to hire Amy Warenyk as the attorney to guide and represent me in the dissolution of my 11-year marriage. I could not be more pleased in the service that I received from Ms. Warenyk. Although I’m certain that my particular case was not unique, the... circumstances of my failed marriage and drawn out separation always felt as if I were in uncharted territory with problems that were insurmountable. Ms. Warenyk never allowed problems to get too big. She gave every situation immediate personal attention and thoughtful deliberation, and always provided rock solid advice. She allowed me to call the shots throughout the process, but fully informed me of my options and her opinion on every matter. In formal meetings she was prompt, prepared and professional. Her demeanor in her arena was ultra confident, yet respectful. And on a personal note, Ms. Warenyk was very encouraging to me. On occasions she would send me a “hang in there” or a “you doing okay?” note out of the blue or after a particularly stressful event in the proceedings. These things weren’t necessary, but it always felt good to know that I hired someone whose skill set included heart. And finally, the services that I received far outweighed what I wrote on a check. If you find yourself facing the unfortunate end of a marriage and you live near Tampa, it would really be worth your while to visit the office of Denoncourt & Warenyk, P.A. and get a personal consultation from Amy Warenyk.

Best Attorney in Tampa

I hired Amy to represent me for my divorce. She did an amazing job, always kept me informed of any updates, responded quickly to my calls and emails, always on time on deadlines and/or court hearings. She is professional in every aspect, and I am glad that I found her on Avvo. Her retainer cost is ve...ry reasonable compared to other attorneys in town. She was the first attorney I met when searching for a divorce attorney, and after meeting her I knew I had to have her represent me. When hiring an attorney from a large firm your case can be passed from attorney to attorney, but when you hire Amy Warenyk she will be the only one representing your case. This avoids having to repeat your needs and issues to different attorneys . Amy will give you the best legal advice and at the same time get your approval for everything she says or does. Without a doubt I recommend hiring Amy Warenyk for legal representation.
