Child Support

Tanita is awesome! I couldn't afford an Attorney and was able to consult with her several times via messenger without having to go in person and received quick accurate responses. Not one time did she say I had to come see her in person first like most Attorney's have you do. She advised me of the d...o's and dont's about my case as if I had come to see her in person. Will highly recommend.

Amazing attorney

Attorney Cain represented me in my case and she did an awesome job . She knows what she’s doing, she’s amazing and had my case dismissed before I even made it to court, she will definitely tell you about all the different options and outcomes. She did such an excellent job getting my case dismissed t...here was no need for anything more. I highly recommend her. Thank you So much Attorney Cain.

Posted by Tracy M. | April 03, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Nothing Short of a Shero!

Hired this attorney to handle a divorce right before Covid-19 shut everything down. She was professional from beginning to the end. Even in the pandemic, she always returned my calls and responded to my emails. She let me pay on a payment plan. Went above and beyond my expectations. She was there for... me. I was depressed but She makes you feel like family. I Ended up getting everything I wanted and more. She is always honest and tells you what to expect in court. We spent hours trial preparing. I know she was tired but never said a thing. When you are stressed out it something about her client care that helps put your mind at ease. I thank God for her. Bet attorney ever!

  • 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.
