Cares About Children
Camellia represented my dad years ago when he got custody of us kids. Years later Camellia helped me get custody of my younger siblings when they needed me to protect them. She continues to care about kids and it shows in her representation.

She kept my kids safe in a terrifying situation!

Camellia Saunders's Lawyer Endorsements
"Camellia was opposing counsel on what could have been a difficult divorce case. However, we were able to work together to get a amicable resolution for both parties and in the most inexpensive way possible for the clients. It was great working with another attorney that wanted to do what was best for their client without a lot of the unnecessary steps and expense of a contested divorce. Great to work with and against. Very knowledgeable in her areas of practice."
"Camellia is knowledgeable, diligent, and experienced, and I recommend her highly to anyone seeking legal assistance in a divorce or child custody matter."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've had many cases against Ms. Saunders. She always proves to be smart, tough, fair, and an advocate for her clients."
