Great Attorney

I was young, pregnant, and alone. The father of my baby was denying that the baby was his. I didn’t know what to do. I needed to get child support for this baby. By now, my baby has been born and is almost a year old. I still have not received anything from his father. I needed to get a attorney. I s...tarted looking into which attorney would be best for us. I found that Wendy Morgan handles child support cases. Wendy understood what I was going through. Once she took my case, it didn’t take long before I started getting my child support check. I finally had relief knowing Wendy was on my side. Wendy Morgan is a great attorney, and if you need one, get her!

Really very great and helpful

I had a son while I was in college. The mother and I reached an agreement and I supported my son. When my son was about to graduate high school; the mother sued me for over seventeen years’ back child support. I hired the Law Firm of Wendy R. Morgan. The lawyers there never stopped fighting for me. T...hey were successful getting me credit for all the support I paid over the seventeen years. They did a top flight job for me and will do a great job for you.

Thank you

After my divorce was final I was having issues with my ex husband paying child support and keeping the set visitation days. I went to the Law Firm of Wendy R. Morgan for some assistance with it. I spoke with Attorney Morgan who was very understanding. She gave me a few options to think about since I ...was unsure. We scheduled an appointment for later in the week so I had a few days to decide what to do. I came to the appointment and again she was nice, helpful and professional. I decided to retain her services and she helped me through a court process to have an order entered against my ex husband. He now pays child support and sees the kids on a regular court ordered basis. The Law firm of Wendy R. Morgan and Attorney Morgan has helped us so much.

I would Recommend Wendy

I hired attorney Wendy R. Morgan to handle my divorce last year after my 12 year marriage had failed. I was a stay at home mom and was worried about how I could pay all of the bills and expenses for myself and my children. At the time my husband was saying he would take custody of my children and I w...as scared to death. Wendy helped me through the legal process, and protected my rights as a mother, finishing not only my divorce, but securing joint custody of my children for me, getting me both child support and maintenance. I would recommend Wendy to anyone who needed an attorney to represent them for any purpose. She is highly qualified and cares about her clients, and was always available to speak with me when I needed to talk to her.

Excellent work

Wendy Is awesome and her associate Robert Medansky is very helpful as well! I hired the Law Firm of Wendy R. Morgan to handle a child support issue for me because my ex was failing to make his payments. She immediately entered an order with the court and directly took my support payments out of his p...aychecks. Thank God for Wendy! Her staff is super friendly and it is always a pleasure visiting her office. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone looking for a sharp Family Law Attorney.
