Great professional Lawyer

I will use Mr. Hoffer in all my child custody issues! Mr. Hoffer was honest, professional and diligent! He took every single one of my concerns into account. He was a great voice for me in court. He ultimately got me the outcome I was searching for. Mr. Hoffer was always easy to reach and very respon...sive. His office staff Mrs. Becky, was always kind and helpful! She always relayed my messages and treated me with the upmost respect!

The best of the best

Jerry was absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend him! He told me exactly what to expect through the process, and didn’t necessarily tell me what I wanted to hear but told me honest advice and advised me of the best possible resolution. He’s quick to respond and is great at what he does. He h...elped me settle and win with my divorce/child custody/ & child support.

Thank you!

you are thinking of hiring Mr. Hoffer, do it now! My case was a difficult one stretched across two states. He approached my case with confidence and is very well versed with the law. My family and I can't thank him enough. Other reviewers that say he is arrogant, are mistaking his tactics. He is hone...st and straightforward which is what you want. Would you rather a lawyer tell you something to make you feel better? Or would you rather one that tells you what needs to be done for the good of your case? I would much rather the second honestly. That is exactly why my case came out better than expected. I can not thank you enough Mr. Hoffer and your staff for being informative and thorough with each detail. I will definitely be hiring Mr.Hoffer again if needed!

"Not a Sprint, Its a Marathon!"

The nightmare began in January 2016. Jerry met with me (grandma) and our daughter to discuss drugs and loss of custody of her baby! We are from Maryland and our daughter lived in Cleveland, TN where she gave birth to our grandson. Jerry and his office staff, Janie and Becky walked us through everyt...hing. Dealing with Child Services, Juvenile Court, and General Sessions was quite an adventure to begin with but every step of the way Jerry's office helped to walk us through it. The final court was Circuit Court where after 2 years and a lot of work my daughter needed to do she gained full custody of her son and was able to bring him back to Maryland on a full time basis. Jerry understands the system, listens to your problem and gets it done. His MYCASE program made everything extremely easy to communicate, review documents as well as keep a calendar of all the dates. Jerry will say that, "It's not a sprint it's a marathon!" Deed it has been so be willing and patient to work thru the process what ever your process maybe. Also, take his advice seriously!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer. I have worked opposite Jerry on numerous divorce and custody cases through the years Jerry is a very strong advocate for his clients and enjoys the respect and admiration of the legal community and local judges. Jerry is excellent at settling cases to spare his clients the heartache of a trial if it can be worked out. However, if it is a case that must be tried, he fights as hard as any attorney I have seen. He has the years under his belt to handle any domestic case. He's a great guy and great lawyer. If you chooose him you will not be disappointed."
