Mediation for Divorce

I would like to just express my gratitude and huge thanks for everything Amber did for my wife, my two kids, and me. My wife had been extremely adamant prior to mediation that 50/50 was not going to happen and it wasn't in the best interest of the children. She had spoken to me multiple times how i...t would not end well if I took her to court over this issue. However, Amber was able to help speak to her in a manner which changed her mind. I am still in awe of how everything turned out. I am so thankful (and even that word doesn't express it enough) that my wife and I were blessed by God to have Amber as our mediator! She helped to provide my family with a very positive and happy future in a unfortunate situation. From the bottom of my heart thank you for helping me to be the most present father I can be for my children! I just can't say thank enough, for how Amber was able to help my family. She was a professional and at the same time showed compassion and empathy toward me and my wife during this difficult day of mediation. She helped my wife and I both compromise to find agreeable solutions when it was necessary for us to compromise.

I would like to know who reviewed her a 5 besides her partner

Ms Boles and Mr Phipps participate in practices to help their personal careers rather than watching for the interests of the child or family involved. My life will never be the same after these disastrous lawyers got my case. Buyer beware. I know that Ms. Boles is definitely not a 10/10 lawyer and is... unethical in practice. Do not hire. Today she says she's a Mediator and Collaborative lawyer. She told me she is a litigator. Never stepped foot in the courtroom that I hired her for.

She's the best!

I was referred to Amber through a family member who had recently gotten divorced. I had called about 5 or 6 other attourneys and I didn't really find one that I "clicked" with. I set up a consultation with Amber and I knew instantly she was who I wanted representing me with my divorce. She was so per...sonable yet professional. She took the time to help break down the process for me and even give me some resources to do my own research. She made the whole process as pleasant as it possibly could be! She communicated clearly- I was always aware of where we were at in the process and I always knew what she needed from me and when she needed it. She was easy to get in contact with and always got back to me in a timely manner. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an honest, reliable, family/divorce attorney

Outstanding!

I was referred to Amber because of her knowledge in family law/mediation. From my first consultation she explained my options and walked me through the 'typical' process. Amber, presented my options in a manner that allowed me to make an informed decision of how to proceed. Amber, was very thorough,... would check in and reassured me that no matter the decision I made she's got it handled. I highly recommend Amber! Her service, knowledge and professionalism are beyond expectations!

More than happy!

I hired Amber because she is well known for her knowledge of Police and Fire pension/work situations. From our first meeting she was straightforward with me about my custody situation and realistic expectations of its outcome. However, she also listened to what I had to say and took to heart the fig...ht I was willing to pursue for my child. Through the entire process I continuously felt that Amber had my best interests in mind. Even at times when my emotions ran high I knew that Amber's guidance helped me to stay focused and to think strategically about my case. She returned phone calls and emails promptly and was always extremely professional. She allowed me to assist with certain aspects of my case that helped me feel powerful instead of powerless. Amber recently handled a contempt hearing for my case that resulted in a favorable outcome. She is always well prepared and fights as hard each time as if my case is her most important case. I have a great appreciation for her "bulldog" courtroom personality and a fondness for her caring and kind heart. I plan on using Amber again should I need further assistance with my case because I trust her ability to defend me and my child.
