Posted by David | July 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Awesome Lawyer! Agressive and effective....

I'd recently found myself in a very frustrating and complex situation involving child support. I was referred to Finis by another attorney who spoke very highly of him and assured me that he was very proficient. I was a little apprehensive when first meeting Finis primarily because he looked reall...y young and all my prior dealings with attorneys that I'd had success with were all a little more on the "seasoned" side. My trepidation was immediately diffused. Finis immediatley began asking questions and pointing things out to me that I had overlooked. I could tell that he has a handle on law and all of it's intricate facets that are beyond his years. Finis didn't rush things. He hatched a strategy and had frequent conversations with me to provide me with updates. On the day of court, my ex-wife had gone to great lengths to alter her income to make it appear that her annual income was less than $30k a year. Finis was able to navigate a TOME of documents from both our side and hers to uncover the truth which was that her income was well over $200k a year. He did this all the while maintaing a constant dialouge between her counsel and the judge. He was constant pressure! In the end, this constant barrage sealed the deal. My ex-wife's manipulation and dishonesty was exposed in open court. A lesser attorney would not have been able to have gotten me the outcome that he did. For that fact - I am 100% convinced. If you're looking for a "cheap" lawyer or trying to find an attorney that's easy on your wallet - You're always going to get what you pay for. Finis isn't the cheapest attorney out there but he's far from the most expensive either. I can honestly say that I was charged fairly and felt that in the end, what I gained was far more than what I was charged for. Thank you Finis.

"I endorse this lawyer. He is a former clerk of the Indiana Supreme Court. He knows the law. We attended law school together and I was able to witness his good work ethic then. Now he works just as hard as a lawyer fighting for his clients."
