Todd Christopher Hawkins

I would absolutely recommend Mr. Todd Hawkins and Defending Your Family to anyone. I had a very difficult and lengthy family law case. Mr. Hawkins with his outstanding legal staff was able to deftly handle every legal encounter thrown at me. When both parties finally went before the judge, I watch...ed a master at work in Mr. Hawkins as he brilliantly presented my case and triumphed in court, for which I am deeply grateful. This is why I respectfully call him “The Hawk.”

I hired Todd about 7 months ago. He is still going strong for me and doing his best to help me with my family matter. He has always been honest and upfront with me. To this day we still have more court dates to battle and he is keeping me strong. " you have to conquer the small battles before u can w...in the war" this quote I truly believe. I have nothing negative to say about Todd or the office staff, they all know my struggle and heartache and have and will be there for me til the end. Thank you so much Todd and staff for everything ur doing for me and my little ones.

I hired Todd ($1500.00 up front) to defend me for Contempt of Court. I received 6 years of unpaid medical bills from my EX's lawyer. My EX was seeking $2100. I wanted an offset of expenses of $1000 and more visitation or an agreement to stop having visitations cancelled. Showed up to court, Todd, my ...EX and her lawyer went into mediation (without me in the room). He assured me that we had "won" and I was to pay $1500.00 (he had to give a little more to get a little more) and that he would send the paperwork detailing the agreement once it was drawn up. Weeks later, I had to contact him for the paperwork and received the "stipulation". I was given 7 days to pay $1500.00 to the court (at that time I was 10 days beyond the 7 days). The stipulation also stated that I would agree to pick up 50% of all extracurricular activities (PP states those costs come out of CS). No mention of an offset for the items I am/have been paying for. No mention of visitation. I contacted him about what he agreed to and he told me he "did what he could", and that the modification of visitation would require an additional visit to court...with additional costs. I paid $1500.00 to the court. I asked him to change the stipulation, he informed me that was not possible and it was legal and binding...IF I SIGNED IT... I thanked him for his time and excused him. He withdrew. My EXs lawyer filed a Motion to have me held in Contempt because I wouldn't sign what he agreed to. Todd made my situation worse. Answer your phone Todd.
