Posted by Tara | August 11, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Personable, Dependable and Enthusiastic

My ex-husband and I were in a disagreement about our parenting plan we had set in place for our child. He had moved twice without notifying me and when I was trying to move, while going through the proper channels, and he tried to fight me on it. I was 7 months pregnant with my second child and my fi...ancé and I were trying to move closer to where his job was. I knew I needed help so I hired Maddie and she did an amazing job! She immediately advised me on what I should do, how to do it, and things I shouldn’t do. She kept me informed about everything. She worked hard and quick and was able to get me the results I wanted before my baby came. She worked so well with me and my family and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better!

"Madeline Copes is one of the best attorneys to whom I have had the privilege of knowing, working with, as well as being able to learn with. When seeing someone under pressure, I believe you see who she really is; Mrs. Copes is as wonderful a person and attorney under pressure as she is not under pressure. I would and do trust her with any of my legal needs, but most especially family law. You cannot go wrong with Mrs. Copes."
