A Fighting Chance

I hired Ms. Thornton in 2016 for my child custody case. At the very beginning she said this is a process and throughout the entire case she had to remind my wife and I of this. My case ended up going into a full trial and Ms. Thornton fought for me, for my daughters. As a father I felt as if the odds... were already stacked against me, but having a lawyer like Amanda gave me a fighting chance and full custody of my girls. There are no words to express how very grateful and appreciative I am of Ms. Thornton and her paralegal Lisa for everything they did to help my family!

She has raised the bar! More than I expected!!

Will start this by saying you will never find a better lawyer it is very clear Amanda takes her job to heart she looks at each case as more than just a paycheck she made it feel as if we were a family fighting together. I am a father that was not only going for full custody but also, being as I live ...in Texas, I was asking the courts to allow my son to leave Tennessee, neither an easy thing to acomplish! Amanda was there for me 100% before, during, and even after court (don't want to leave out Lisa the woman behind the phone but the greatest help you could ask for) . Amanda absolutely destroyed the opposing party in court and won me full custody (let me add again I am the father). She was very reasonable with pricing and was dedicated and determined throughout everything. Now, months later, I am in a different state and heading back to court and Amanda still answers my phone calls and all my questions, as well as helping my new lawyer with anything he needs. I can honestly say she was so amazingly phenomenal I know I will never find another lawyer as good as her!! THANK YOU AMANDA FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND KEEP DOING FOR MY FAMILY!!!!!

Resounding custody success

First, let me say that Mrs. Thornton did an outstanding job in my custody matter. Secondly, she went above and beyond what one would normally expect of an attorney. She is who you would want to handle what is, quite possibly, one of the most important matters in your life. She is very strong in, and ...out of, the courtroom. Her arguments are precise, incisive, and very intelligent. Her knowledge of the finer points of the law and procedures is impressive. She will keep you appraised of the situation and communicates very well. In short, I would highly reccomend Mrs. Thornton. You could not ask for a tougher, smarter, sharper, or more diligent attorney. Your family deserves to be defended this well.

Mann vs mann

I was already with another lawyer that wasn't cutting out, and already had spent a bunch of money. I was referred to Amanda by one of her friends. She worked with me on my payments, updated me and kept me calm, broke down and explain things to me the simplest way possible( The real life version) and ...won my case. The other lawyer was running all over my first lawyer tell Amanda stepped in. Once Amanda stepped in the case started to fall in line in my favor. I have full custody of my daughter thanks to Amanda. I will recommend Amanda to anybody that wants custody of their child.

One of the best Lawyers that i know...

I have had too use Amanda a couple of times in the last couple of years. Also had a good out come in the end. I would recommend Amanda to any of my friends or family that might need an Attorney. She is very out spooking and will work hard for any of her clients.
