Michael Shawn Farrell

Mr. Farrell helped with a parenting plan modification my kids begged me for, he was very honest with things that didn't bode well for me, I was stressed the whole time and at times felt like I wouldn't be able to handle it as the other parent was being horrible and more worried about the new spouse's... wants than our kids' needs. Mike and Mary were a God send for me, they helped me through it all and in the end, he got one of the best outcomes I could of asked for. He fought for MY KIDS to get what they wanted and needed!

When I initially hired him, I thought he would be a great fit.... I was so wrong! After I filed for child support, my ex hired an attorney and filed emergency motion to get my kids for Christmas time. I went to pick my kids up and he said I couldn't have them and said I'd get them back on Christma...s..... Christmas of 2015 and it is now August of 2017 and the only thing Farrell did for me (and he really didn't, department of revenue did) was get me temporary child support in Feb 2017 during this long process. Funny thing is, I asked him if temporary support was possible because my ex hadn't paid a dime for 6 years at this point or help at all. He told me no. Then a little over a year later, the department of revenue makes it happen. In the nearly 2 years and literally 2 court dates, I paid $3k for nothing at all. DEP OF REV handled what I hired him for. He wanted me to pay more money for " such a difficult case ". He didn't do much at all. Not even answer the phone or return my calls. After him wanting more money and absolutely nothing being resolved, just more problems, he filed to drop me. I can't tell you how many times I called him or emailed him but he never responded and that is how I always make my payments. So at this point, he refused payments and when I asked for rescheduling the date, he ignored more emails and calls and I got dropped like a bad habit. Thanks Mike Farrell for absolutely nothing costing me $3k I did not have to waste.

Mr. Farrell handled defending me against my ex when he filed a modification action. He was really great. He wasn't obnoxious in court at all and still managed to make my ex look ridiculous. It was affordable and his assistant was fantastic. An all star team. Hopefully I won't have to go back to ...court again but if I do, it will be with Mr. Farrell.

Mr. Farrell is handling my custody case. He is extremely helpful and very prompt when I have a question about anything. If any "problems" come up he handles them for me in a very timely manner and keeps me well apprised to everything that is going on. I have and will continue to recommend Mr. Farrel...l, he makes going through such a difficult situation a lot easier than you would anticipate it being.
