Caring, knowledgeable and efficient

Judy and her team were and are simply incredible. She is kind, considerate and knows the legalities of divorce very well. She knew exactly what my case needed at the exact right time. She made me feel secure during a tumultuous time, my divorce was executed professionally and with a fair and benefici...al outcome. I can only recommend her in all aspects regarding divorce and family law.

Passionate, thorough, attentive

I cannot speak highly enough of my experience as Judy Hester's client. My custody battle had been going on for nearly a year when I hired Judy, and she immediately delved into the details and made a plan of action, the result of which is everything I dreamed of. Judy was fully attentive and responsiv...e, and if she could not get back to me about something immediately, one of the other attorneys in her practice did. Judy made me feel comfortable and confident. She is extremely thorough. I cannot say enough good things about her!

Not your average lawyer

Your average lawyer will get you average results. Judy and her team have an "edge" that is needed in order obtain better than average results. From both interviewing other lawyers and monitoring the interactions of her and her team throughout my case, here is what I think contributes to her edge. 1.... The inherent desire she has to obtain the best results possible for her client. Judy goes above and beyond what is expected of her. 2. Her credibility among the courts and her reputation among opposing counsels. Her name goes a very long way. 3. Experience. No situation catches Judy by surprise. She stays two steps ahead of everyone else, and that was invaluable in my case. So glad she was able to take me on, I'm not sure where I'd be at now without her help!
