Juvenile case

We were referred to Hopkins Law Office after Saline County arrested a child in our care for an alleged playground threat. Arron Hopkins was very professional and genuine with our 12 year old boy and immediately put us at ease with his support and knowledge! We had our day in court and Hopkins Law... did an awesome job and we are grateful and thankful that Not Guilty on All Charges was the final word!! We Also want to thank Clay for all your help and professionalism!

Excellent attorney

Aaron is so down to earth and easy to talk to. He handled our situation quickly and professionally. He definitely set our anxieties at ease. I would highly recommend Aaron if you're ever in need of an attorney.

Amazing to work with, Highly recommend!

Aaron, did some amazing work in my case! I hired him to help me get my baby home and that’s exactly what he did! I couldn’t be more grateful to have not just a very professional lawyer, but one that truly understands and does everything he can in his power for his clients! I’m happy to say I’ve got A...aron in my corner! Thanks again!

Divorce/Custody

Aaron and all of his staff was easy to get along with. He answered all of my questions pretty quick. He got my divorce finalized and full custody of my child. I highly recommend him if you ever need a lawyer. Overall he is a great guy to work with.

Spectacular lawyer

Aaron was so easy to work with. He guided me every step of the way, answering all of my questions and easing all of my worries and fears. It was clear he had many years of experience as he handled my case with ease. He understands his clients and their needs along with the hard work and dedication th...at is required for each of his cases. I was very successful in my case and Mr. Hopkins got me everything I wanted and everything that benefited my son. I hope to never have to revisit this entire situation again, but my mind is at ease knowing I have Mr. Aaron Hopkins in my corner. Aaron always answered my calls or called me back whether it was on weekends or anything. I could not have asked for a better legal advisor than Aaron Hopkins and I would absolutely recommend him and his team to anyone, hands down.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
