Honest and compassionate

My husband and I were in the middle of a difficult child custody case. We had two previous attorneys yet our proceedings were not moving forward. We felt we were not being heard and wasn’t sure what direction to take. We hired Sam and immediately things began to change. Sam and his team worked v...igorously for us and in the end we had a order in our favor and case closed. Sam will listen to your concerns and tell you your options. He is compassionate about his work and getting the best outcome for the children. His staff is top notch and your questions will not go unanswered. If we find ourselves in need of counsel in the future , without question Sam will be our phone call!

what's a good divorce attorney?

The contrast between the lawyer who represented my ex-wife and Sam, who represented me, was dramatic: her lawyer's idea of advocacy was to be confrontational (luring my ex to also become confrontational). She went after everything, no matter how small. She made empty threats. She did not question he...r clients claims and did not damp her unreasonable expectations. Why should she, she got paid either way. Sam, on the other hand, was firm but willing to negotiate and find solutions. He has a lot of experience, treated me and the opposing team with courtesy and respect, he took into consideration how a judge might rule, he did his research, he sought solutions, and developed a big picture plan which he executed, in consultation with me, in record time. In the end my ex has a huge legal bill, and did not get more than what she deserved, and if she did, it was in consideration for our son. The conclusions to be drawn are obvious. However, if you still have doubts concerning what type of lawyer you want, I would strongly, and without reservations, recommend you discuss your case with Sam before you decide.

Best decision ever.

Sam and his amazing staff assisted my husband and I in a custody modification of children from my previous marriage. Ultimately the modification ended in my husband being able to legally adopt my kids. Sam and the staff were always available to answer any questions that we had. They also always respo...nded to emails. I started the modification journey with a different attorney that made us feel like we weren't getting heard and we constantly felt ignored. But switching to English Law Firm was the best decision we ever made. I highly recommend them to anyone that is needing assistance with divorce or child custody.

Custody

I like the way Sam defends me. He will have your back and fight hard for you! He hears you out when you have a concern. Everyone in his firm will work hard to fight for you and will take care of you to the best of their ability.
