Recommend

Aislinn was extremely helpful for my restraining order, paternity, and placement/custody cases. As a first time mother with a difficult, mentally-ill, absent father, I was unsure of how things would play out once we got in front of court commissioners or the judge when he requested placement of our ...infant child. Aislinn was clear-headed and soundly predicted the course that this case would take. Her advice is spot-on and she will help lead you to decisions to what is best for your child(ren) and you. She will not sugarcoat and will give best and worst case scenarios. Aislinn knows the court staff, their past rulings, and the way they tend to sway. This, alone, is immeasurable! She was willing to take-on things on my behalf but was very good about letting me know when it was appropriate for me to do it on my own (to save on finances and to iterate it best, as Mom). Aislinn and I shared personal stories of our children (only a few weeks apart in age) and being moms for the first time. These connections were very important to me and helped me to come out on top in my case. I have recommended her now to family and friends. She will be my go-to if things reignite or if I decide to go down the removal of parental rights path.

Great representation

Working with Aislinn made my difficult custody issue much easier. She was very professional and understanding. I was a client for a few months and she and the staff kept me abreast of all developments in my case. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and would definitely work with the firm in... the future.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
