Integrity at Its Finest

Rachael Putnam’s area of expertise is Family Law. Although my situation wasn’t dealing with a marital or custody case, she handled a difficult family situation for me with integrity, empathy, compassion, and professionalism. She looked out for my family’s best interests at a highly emotional time, ...wanting to ensure the right thing was done. To say she cares about her clients is an understatement. She truly does treat you like family. I am sincerely grateful for her, and she has my strongest recommendation for anyone needing her exceptional skills.

10/10 Recommend

Rachel was extremely attentive and worked an emergency child custody case with a shockingly quick turnaround time! She was detailed in all the steps we needed to take and was genuinely concerned about not only the welfare of the child but also with the wellbeing of the parent needing assistance. We w...ere 100% confident in her abilities, and she did not disappoint! I highly recommend her for any child custody issue. She is exceptionally experienced in this area!

She alone is an argument for being able to rate more than just 5 stars

Rachel Putnam. There are not words enough to describe this woman. I was being represented by a lawyer who was clearly intimidated by the opposition and who was unable to take a firm stand in my case. Desperate and overwhelmed I fired my current Council and contacted Leslie ballin and asked him for th...e quote-unquote Leslie ballin of family court which if you are in Memphis you know what I mean. a hard hitter, a tough guy, a lawyer that never loses but not due to corruption, rather, due to competence, to which he responded contact Rachel Putnam and tell her I sent you. This was the single most pivotal moment in my ENTIRE LIFE. The lives and custody of my five children and my new husband and I were at stake, and Rachel did not disappoint. there is simply not enough room to describe the unparalleled professionalism, unsurpassed litigation knowledge and exemplary courtroom decorum with which she represented my family. hearing after hearing, entering the courtroom with her team prepared to humbly and graciously, but unwaveringly, hand anyone who is not her client their ass on a silver platter was something a person can never forget...moving to say the LEAST. Without exaggeration whatsoever I can confidently attest to the Superior stature and empathetic excellence Miss Putnam exemplifies. The average attorney does not deserve to be in her presence, no joke. I don't even want to call her a woman because I'm honestly convinced she's some sort of angel or Heavenly being put here to restore Justice Case by case. I owe you my entire life and my children's Futures Miss Putnam. Your hard work was invaluable. Blessings and protection to you and your lovely family and staff.

Quintessentially the best divorce attorney ever!

I have been blessed to have found and worked with Rachael for a post-divorce case for many years now. My case which involves a highly special needs child (now 21) has been brutal to say the least. However, Rachael knows the law, and has fought for extended child support from an estranged father way p...ast the legal age of 18. Without her expertise, commitment to the law and principles involved, I would not be capable of supporting this beautiful young lady who desperately needs adaptive tools and other considerations to make her as viable a contributor to society as is possible. Thank you Rachael for your commitment to your profession, your passion for the written law and your willingness to explore/research every avenue to help those who truly are in need. You rock!
