Tamara Ann Meister

I absolutely recommend Butler, Giraudo, and Meister if you want a problem-solving attorney and a compassionate, dedicated support staff (thanks for all your help Kelly!). Tami Meister represented me in a contentious divorce and child custody case that lasted over a year and a half. Attorney Meister w...as thoughtful, empathetic, and went above and beyond to make herself available for any questions or concerns I had. She cares for her clients and their cases but doesn’t allow emotion to negatively impact her ability to effectively advocate for them. I appreciated that she gave me realistic outcomes for each situation we found ourselves in, even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear at the time. I know that my case had a much more favorable outcome due to my choice in attorney and because I consistently deferred to Attorney Meister’s counsel and recommendations.

Tami is an excellent attorney and I think very highly of her and her team. During my initial consultation with her, I felt like she was understanding of my situation and she took the time to listen to me and give me some insight on what would be necessary in my case. She was very informative and had ...answers to all of my questions. Her professionalism did not end there. From the moment I hired her, she was dedicated to help win my case. Although we did not end up having to go to trial, I had a lot of confidence in her that she would represent me in the best possible way. She always returned my phone calls and emails in a timely matter and she made sure that I was aware of everything that was going on in my case. I highly recommend Tami and her team. They won't let you down!

A divorce is a difficult situation for anyone to go through. From the beginning I appreciated Tami's direct approach. She listened to my biggest concerns about the divorce especially with regards to the custody dispute. As a father I was worried about my rights and the court respecting them. W...ith her advice and guidance I was able to secure the custody agreement I desired as well as to alleviate my fears of being sidelined as a parent. I found her counsel to always be well guided even when difficult to hear. She always responded quickly to my emails and phone calls. I appreciate her approach towards nuances of the process. I feel like there is a tendency in this field to go the lowest route and sling as much mud as possible at the opposing party. Her firm does not advocate that approach and in looking back I am pleased at their wisdom in that recommendation. Additionally, I would say Tami has a very impressive knowledge of the law and its nuances. The opposing party went through multiple legal teams during the process and they always held Tami in great regard and deferred to her to draft the agreements and explain the changes in the state law with regards to support formulas. I felt my counsel was always well-prepared and worked with me to craft a strategy with an optimal outcome. I highly recommend Tami to anyone going through this unpleasant part of life.

Tami has been handling my custody issues, post divorce for the last 2 1/2 years now. I cannot say enough good things about her and all she has done. I wasn't 100% satisfied with my divorce attorney and I decided to switch because I didn't think he had done much for me given the large amount I had pai...d him, so I went to the internet and started searching for attorneys and stumbled upon Tami and her colleagues. I took a leap of faith based on her favorable reviews and I could not be more glad that I did. At every step, she has been available and accessible. She responds to all of my questions and concerns in a timely manner and has helped me navigate through the legal system. Her billing has been very fair and I have felt like she treated my money like it was her own. She has done such a good job for me, in fact, that I have referred other clients to her. My only regret is that she wasn't the attorney I hired for my divorce. If I had it to do all over again, she definitely would be.

I went in and hired Tami with the mind set that my ex and I had everything divided and this was going to be quick and easy l, so of course Tami's job would be also quick and easy....I was so wrong! As my ex started to change his mind about EVERYTHING we had previously agreed on, Tami took the bull by... the horns and handled my case with so much time and care. She stayed completely professional while making sure my ex and his attorney knew where we stood and what was going to happen! Tami was good about telling me if I was asking for too much but also telling me when I leagally could ask for things I had know clue about! I remember listening to her talk to the judge, the other attorney and myself at times and thinking " wow, this woman is brilliant and really knows her stuff!" I cannot say enough about Tami, she never made me feel rushed or like I couldn't talk to her as a person! She responded to me ALWAYS in a timely manner ( even at 9 pm on a Sunday night) when my ex was trying to pull something! Finally, after 10 months of dealing with so much pettiness I was divorced and walked away with more than I even told Tami I wanted in our first meeting! Hands down the best divorce attorney around! If you're looking for an attorney that will fight for you and your kids while remaining professional, ethical, and with some sass then do yourself a favor and hire the best which is Tami Meister!!! Thank you Tami for all you have done for myself and kids. Worth every penny!
