owner ANDREAS family restaurant

I dont typically write reviews however, in this "case" it is warranted. Having gone through a protracted and tumultuous divorce lasting almost five years would leave any living and breathing human hating lawyers even their own. well, i must say i am left with a gratitude for all the hard work, pat...ience and guidance given me throughout my process. I would recommend Melissa Wilson to anyone that is looking for Honesty, integrity and a fighter where it counts... CASE CLOSED!!!! and so is mine. cant forget Martha her assistant, taking my calls always and listening to me vent. Thank you all in that office Sincerely Niko

Marriage Dissolution

Just wanted to say that this Law Firm handled my divorce very professionally. Everything went as planned which doesn’t always happen in these types of matters. No complaints!

Very thorough and professional

I would highly recommend Melissa for any legal needs in the area of divorce, which is the area for which I retained her. She was very knowledgable and thorough. I would use her again.

KUDOS TO THE BEST

As some of you reading this know, the thought of acquiring an attorney is difficult at best and terrifying at most. I consider myself very fortunate to have been pointed in the direction of Melissa Wilson, Esq. and her team of professionals to handle my divorce. Melissa, Martha, and Jennifer provid...ed me with excellent support and guidance and were able (for the most part) to calm me at every step of the way. I would recommend this group of professionals to anyone seeking legal guidance.

BEST Choice

I recently just went through a nasty divorce/ family court case. My ex did everything he could to make me look bad. I called Melissa's office on 11/15/2016 and hired her we spoke and went over everything. Melissa and her staff made me feel comfortable. My divorce went from November 2016 and was comp...leted on September 2017 with all the paperwork being signed off by the judge. Melissa and her staff knew their stuff and how to handle my case. Melissa won my case for me. I have my son and we couldn't be happier. If I ever need a lawyer again I will call Melissa and her staff.
