One of the most helpful lawyers I have ever met

I ran into a serious issue recently requiring legal assistance and was on a very limited time line. I initially contacted Ms. Baxter for assistance and left a message in her office. She reached out to me immediately and my first impression, after chatting with her for just a short amount of time, wa...s that I began to feel that Ms. Baxter truly cared about my circumstances. After providing Ms. Baxter with my details, she felt that I might be better served by providing a referral to a different lawyer whose scope of work was a better fit for me. However, rather than just pass me off and forget about me, Ms. Baxter continued to follow up with me to assist me and direct me along the process helping me to avoid any mistakes that I might make. I was amazed by the relationship that Ms. Baxter was quickly able to develop with me and the kindness and understanding she showed me during such a stressful time for me. I will definitely be utilizing Ms. Baxter's services, if needed, in the future and would highly recommend her to any others in need of legal assistance.

Highly Recommend

If anybody needs legal help/advice Ms. Baxter would be my first and only recommendation. She is very knowledgeable as well as very passionate! She will always have your best interest at heart. She is easily reachable and very thorough. She is an excellent resource. Overall, I am very satisfied with h...er services.

Highly recommend

Judith Baxter has been a blessing for me and my family. Judith has been my attorney for the past two years. she has gone above and beyond for me during my hardship in dealing with family court. It was such a relief for me to know that Ms. Baxter always had my best interest at heart. I do not feel lik...e just another case number for Ms. Baxter. She is a very strong attorney and is quick to respond if you have concerns or questions. I will continue to have Ms. Baxter represent me for any other future court dates I may have.
