Premium representation for Child Custody

Priya represented me in a child custody case. I am from out of state and had to make a long drive to Ohio for each court date. What I liked a lot about Priya, was that she went over any information that I gave her about the case, listened to what my overall goal was, paid attention to every detail wh...ile in court, and made sure that there was no doubt what my goal for custody was. I felt like I had someone who understood my goals, truly wanted the best outcome for my own children, paid attention to details that others may ignore, and knew almost everything that could legally be done to best represent me. If you are looking for a lawyer who can get the job done, is aggressive, and will leave you satisfied that everything was accomplished, then I would recommend Priya for that task.

Sensible and Efficient

Priya has a sound understanding of the law and has extensive knowledge. She never even tried to exploit the situation instead she understood my situation and dealt with it very maturely.I am really grateful for her services and definitely recommend her. She resolved my case with ease and did a tre...mendous job dealing with my Civil Protection Order.

A Fabulous Lawyer

When my ex-husband filed for divorce in June 2015, I felt depressed and helpless. I contacted a few lawyers. They gave me a vague answer or a less optimistic expectation. I was very pessimistic at that time. I came to this website to look for a lawyer. When I read Priya’s reviews, I was impressed. I... read them all one by one. All of them were very good. I contacted her immediately. When I met her the first time, she was the same as I imagined. She was very confident, professional and knowledgeable. I decided to hire her as my attorney without hesitation. The facts proved that I made a wise decision. Due her dedicated hard work, I got a better result than I expected. After my case was over, she still helped me to solve some problems. I am so grateful for everything she did for me. I am so lucky to have hired her as my attorney. I strongly recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney. Priya can help you get rid of the troubles.

Excellent Attorney!

Priya was absolutely fabulous. She was professional, affordable and kept me informed through out the entire process. It can be very stressful and intimidating to not only find a lawyer, but to understand everything that needs to be done for a particular situation. She was very knowledgeable and ex...plained everything in terms that made sense and answered all of my questions. Also, the majority of the process was done via email which is perfect for a busy schedule and her responses were always quick.

Domestic/child medical support enforcement

Priya was extremely satisfactory in her assistance to helping me in my support enforcement matter. She put in the work needed to make sure she was knowledgeable and prepared for my issue to ensure the results were satisfactory. She made sure all efforts were exhausted before we went before a magistra...te to resolve the issue and was well prepared when we went before the magistrate. She ensured I was well informed about the process as we proceeded through each phase of the matter. She was able to in the end get the support order enforced.

"Attorney Tamilarasan is a true professional and phenomenal advocate. She covered a matter in Franklin County Municipal Court for me with less than 24 hours' notice and having never met the client. She immediately built a relationship with the client and was able to navigate the case to an extraordinary conclusion. It was an impressive showing that I was not expecting, but more importantly, made the client happy. I would highly endorse this attorney for any criminal matter in Franklin County!"

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
