Melanie Ann Haynes

I came to Melanie with a mess of a case pending a post divorce parenting modification. It seemed futile and on its way to a terrible trial. Melanie was able to steer me through some poor representation, and gave great guidance. She was tough, but fair. She was very direct in her approach, never missi...ng a detail. She worked hard for myself and my case prior to any involvement. She takes the time to look at cases, assess them and she immediately goes to work- even before she is retained she is setting you up for success. This is the best legal representation I have had. I highly recommend her. She is 100 percent child focused.

I have worked on and off with Melanie for years now. She helped me navigate my way through a divorce in 2012 with professionalism. She is very knowledgeable about family and custody laws. She always kept me informed and made me aware of everything I needed to know to get to the process successfully. ...She did all this in a timely manner. Recently, she helped me gain the rights to my children. I would recommend Melanie to anyone who is going through a divorce or has a custody matter. She has helped me through both and I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer to stand up for me. I will absolutely use her again if needed. She’s knowledgeable, professional and also makes sure she is aware of exactly what you need and want and will do all she can to make it happen for you. Best lawyer, hands down! Very pleased.

I hired Melanie based on a recommendation from one of her colleagues. I could not have had a better attorney! My divorce became a very long, drawn out and frankly a very ugly affair ending in a trial. Melanie was the perfect mixture of professional, confidant, and counselor throughout the entire... situation. She was able to help me see the big picture and not get bogged down in the emotions. She did everything she could to keep us out of a trial but when it got to that point, I was glad I had her on my side. Melanie shines in a courtroom! I was confident in the way she prepared me, the trial outline and her performance always made sure my best interests were represented. She never missed a deadline and was very responsive. I never felt rushed and truly felt like I was her only client, even though that was far from the truth. I hope that none of my friends need her services, but if they find themselves in the position of needing a divorce attorney, there is no one else I would recommend.

While representing me in a custody case, Melanie always had time for my questions, responded promptly, and proactively communicated with me often. She worked collaboratively with me, provided excellent suggestions, and treated me as if I were her only client. Her professionalism, respect and communic...ation skills in dealing with fellow attorneys and in Court was much appreciated as well. I highly recommend Melanie!

Melanie was very informative about the case even on first consultation, she answered my questions very patiently without any pressure of picking her as my representative versus picking anyone else. Melanie handled my complex divorce situation with grace, kindness, and professionalism. Melanie is a re...fined lawyer who knows what she is doing. She is very honest and upfront with you about everything. She keeps you updated on where things are, where the case is headed and what to expect moving forward. She is very thorough, fair, strong, knowledgeable, pleasant, and has your back as your lawyer. Thank you so much for standing by me as my legal representative and support during these tough times!
