I don’t know where I would be without Coby’s help!

Coby and Cheryl have been helping me for four years. Between my divorce, custody, and a step parent adoption they have been great through it all. In all situations, their advice has helped me get to where we are today and protect my children. I can’t imagine a better team.

Sword and Shield

When I started the process of my divorce, I had no idea how ugly my former partner could be. When they started to go out of their way to hurt me, it was almost more than I could bear. I remember all of my worries melting away after speaking with Coby Boswell. He said he was now my sword and shield. I... knew I could trust him and that he would do whatever it took to keep me safe. Mr. Boswell was consistent and professional and I appreciate everything he did for me.
