Professionally Awesome

Let me start by saying Pro Forma and Attorney Townsend were professionally awesome throughout my whole case. After being falsely accused, they got me exonerated the day after my birthday. I couldn't have gotten a better birthday present. if you want an effective communicator and someone to take comm...and of your case, Townsend is the guy. Worth every penny!

My Kids and I thank you again. Great Job

I had used the American Law Firm to gain custody of my four children. I met with attorney Zachary Townsend explained my situation to him, and he let me know the flat out the good points of my case and the bad things that might be a issue. I liked the way he didn't beat around the bush and fill my hea...d with crap. Once I decided to go on with the case Attorney Townsend was right there on track getting things filed asap. Also He kept in contact with every step of the way either by phone or text every time I needed to talk to him he seemed to be available and if not I was receiving a call back in a short time, usually due to him being in court witch is understandable meaning that it is him job, witch I understand completely. I Just want to think Attorney Zachary Townsend for making my dream of having custody of my four children come true, also taking the time to help me get the child support for my children. I would recommend American Law Firm to anyone and if your looking for a attorney that's going to be hard working and takes pride in his work just ask for Attorney Zachary Townsend. Thanks again Attorney Townsend...
