Domestic issues

I would highly recommend Ms. Thom to resolve your legal issues. Courtney has handled a number of legal matters for me and is always professional and responsive. With both negotiations and arguments before the court Courtney has provided favorable outcomes.

Posted by Michael | October 02, 2014 | Divorce & Separation

Excellent job handling my divorce

Courtney was very professional starting when I interviewed her to potentially handle my divorce, through the custody hearings, negotiations of property and assets, and finally with settling of the child support. She set realistic expectations up front as to her style of handling my case and eventual...ly delivered more then she promised at the onset. She was always available to me and I would recommend her to anyone contemplating divorce proceedings.
