Excellence in all categories

Ms. Wolter handled our family law case with tremendous professionalism. She was knowledgeable, prompt, and very responsive to our needs. Not being attorneys, we were unsure of how to proceed with our issues, who to trust, and how long it would take. Of course, finances were also an issue. Ms. Wolter ...treated us with respect and kindness. One can feel like they are caught in a maze when trying to sort out legal issues and when dealing with the court. Ms. Wolter smoothed our way for us and left us feeling well taken care of. To her, we were not a number or anonymous people. We were individuals with a problem that she promptly solved. I would hire Ms. Wolter in a second if I ever needed her services again.

Excellent representation. I would retain her services again in a heartbeat.

I retained Tifanne Wolters services recently for a custody modification dispute with my ex-wife, she was very professional, did not waste anyones time and knew the laws involved exceptionally well. I was a nervous wreck in the beginning and Tifanne did a great job on soothing my nerves and my familys... nerves about everything. We did get the outcome we had hoped for and If I had to do it all over again, this lawyer would be my first point of contact for the reasons stated and beyond....no questions asked. Thank you again for everything Tifanne!

Thorough and trustworthy

Tifanne was introduced to my post decree custody case after several hundred pages of affidavits had been submitted to court. Opposing counsel was organized and had endless money to fight me. I had a horrible experience with lawyers prior to finding Tifanne. She took care of everything learning the... case in one month. She researched case law and ultimately made opposing counsel look silly. She knows family law and all of it's intricacies very well. When you hire Tifanne you can stop worrying!

Great job and thanks!

Tifanne helped me win full lcustody of my three kids. This included a (Emergency ex parta motion) Im not sure I spelled that correct. The motion was to give me temp full legal rights so I could put my 15 year old son in treatment. She won that for us and in time helped make it pemiment. I was always ...able to reach Tifanne and she alway seemed to have the information that helped me understand what was going to happen next. I have delt wth a few family lawyers in the past but I have never felt they did much to be recommended. I feel very strongly about her ability to help Fathers or anyone in need.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I would definitely recommend Ms. Wolter for family law matters such as divorce, parenting time and child support. Ms. Wolter was opposing counsel on a difficult parenting time dispute. Our respective clients were not speaking to one another, except for exchanging accusations of past wrongs Ms. Wolter took the time to meet with me and understand where my client was coming from in terms of her concerns and also helped me understand her client's concerns. I was impressed by her willingness to get to the heart of the issues and, rather than just joining with our client's in hurling bitter statements back and forth, really think about and discuss possible solutions to the problem. We ended up in negotiations after the court hearing and came to a resolution so that we didn't have to wait for the court's decision."
