Adoption,

Ms. Driver was my Att. In adopting my daughter. Many years ago we tried to adopt my daughter, but kept running into road blocks. So we tried again, I was referred to Ms. Driver, and within months, Ms. Driver did what we wanted to do years ago. I am so Blessed for her services. She did all this during... the pandemic. She is the best, at getting things done.

Two Florida Adoptions

Tammi helped us navigate two separate Florida adoptions. Being from out of state, she helped take away our concerns and make us feel comfortable with what can be a very volatile and scary process. She's as ethical and professional as they come. We're thankful for the role she played in what will f...orever be our family's story.

Services for Adoption

We hired Tammi to help us with the adoption of our son, and we could not have asked for anyone better! Tammi was always quick to answer our questions and provided us with all the necessary services in a very timely manner. Not only did we feel like she (and her staff) took good care of us, but they t...ook good care of our birth momma as well. We are grateful we connected with her and would recommend her to anyone looking for help with an adoption in Florida!

Compassionate and helpful

Tammi helped us in a step-parent adoption and it was done in a timely manner. She always upheld a professional demeanor and was very compassionate to our case. It was emotionally draining at times but she helped and executed everything timely and organized. I appreciate her and her assistant Joy beyo...nd words could ever convey.

Excellent Service and Exceptional Staff

Tammi and her staff have always went above and beyond for our family. When our son was born, Tammi sat with us in the hospital waiting on the staff to discharge us, it was almost midnight before we were let leave. Now, we have just finalized our second adoption (baby girl!!) with them, without them w...e would have been lost in the adoption process.

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.
