divorce and child custody

I hired Todd to help me with an unexpected divorce and fight for child custody. He helped me every step of the way. I requested a relocation and sole custody of my child and after almost a year we were able to settle our case out of court. He also made sure that I didn't make any rash decisions th...at would hurt me in the long run. He is direct and to the point . Todd will give you best/worse case scenario to that you are prepared for anything and not caught off guard.

A great choice for your divorce lawyer!

During my divorce, Todd proved himself to be a trustworthy and reliable lawyer and was always there for me during the entire process. Todd has a no-nonsense approach and presented the reality of the situation instead of sugarcoating things which I really appreciated. Divorce is challenging in so many... aspects, but I knew I had someone there to depend on to guide and assist me through it all.

Supportive, responsive and attentive

Attorney Dwire is trustworthy, honest and responsive. He is very knowledgeable in his field and takes his time to explain your options. He listened and responded quickly to my needs. I would highly recommend him to my family and friends.

Divorce case

Getting a divorce was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do, but Mr. Dwire did a great job in helping me get through it. He was truly in my corner and was looking out for my best interests. If I didn't understand something he would take the time to explain until I was comfortable with it. ... He would return my calls promptly and keep me updated during the process. There were a lot of difficult issues to be resolved in my divorce case, including child custody and support. He fought for me and got me a good settlement. He did a great job.
