Skilled in complex divorce litigation

I was referred to Neil specifically because he is skilled in complex divorce litigation. My divorce case was lengthy, difficult, often frightening, and highly toxic. You don't want just any divorce attorney for such a case. Neil is tough when he needs to be, but in my case he also worked for the best... interests of my children and made every effort to reduce conflict when he could. He's not simply an "attack dog" out to "win" your case. (So often, when that's the case, it's the children who lose.) Ultimately, his aim was to help reach a settlement and the best possible custody arrangement under extra difficult circumstances, and also to save me tens of thousands of dollars in potential trial costs. His job was not easy. In the midst of an out-of-control situation, I came to trust his counsel. If you need knowledgable, strong, and highly skilled representation, Neil should be at the top of your list to consider.

Skilled Advocate

For over 4 years, Neil Campbell and Marissa Walters became my advocates. They steered my legal ship with calm resolve, meticulous with every detail allowing me to focus on health and healing for myself and my kids. I felt confident in their knowledge and advisement in my multi-layered, complicate...d case. They were able to form a narrative, set reasonable expectations, litigate on my behalf, and win again and again and again. Their respect and credibility was visible by judges, opposing counsel clerics and support staff. Because of their knowledge and skill, they never had to swing below the belt. Instead, they not only out-smarted the opposition, but kept a keen awareness and tight-reign on every development throughout the process. For four years, I watched them practice with integrity, honor and perseverance winning case after case. Selecting the right attorney is an important decision, impacting the trajectory of your future life. By the grace of God, I walked into Neil’s office one day and he humbly ushered me in. Because of Neil and Marissa’s passion for their work and genuine compassion for people, I trusted them implicitly. They enabled me to maintain my dignity and slowly gain my life back. In the end, they provided an outcome I doubted was even possible. I’m living my best life today largely because of them.

Custody and Divorce

Neil and his team are absolutely outstanding. Going the extra mile is an understatement. His patience, knowledge, ethics, and technical competency were far beyond anything I would have expected. My daughter and I would still be struggling today if it wasn't for Neil. And believe me, my case was a nev...er ending spiral around every corner. It was a complicated disaster. I could tell he actually cared as much for my daughter's well-being as I did. After all he wasn't just defending and representing me, but both of us. He is true testament to an honest and empathetic attorney. You most definitely want Neil on your side of the table.

Highly Recommend

The only thing I would add to the other positive reviews on this site is that Neil's stalwart and caring demeanor was a Godsend. He is genuine in his desire to get the best realistic outcome for his client, and he has the knowledge and skills to execute that goal. In a large estate divorce, you wan...t Neil on your side. I was able to put my full trust in him and I am satisfied with the outcome.
