Child custody and visitation

I’ve never had to deal with a child custody case and I was a nervous wreck. I contacted Dixie Brown who was referred to me by a previous lawyer for a different situation. Dixie was very professional from the first point of contact. Dixie listened to what was going on and explained to me what the poss...ible outcome could be. I was served by the father of my son for a child support reduction and custody/visitation agreement. I told Dixie I wanted sole custody and my sons father could have supervised visitation. Dixie filed the motion for what I asked for and also told me it’s very rare that courts award sole custody with long term supervised visitation. Dixie said we were going to fight for it but also wanted me to know it’s rare that it gets awarded and made sure she went over other options that could be granted. It’s crazy because courts really favor coparenting in Louisiana. I had so many questions and was emailing Dixie all the time. Dixie responded each time and also took my calls when she was available. My court date kept getting pushed back so I was all over the place with emotions. I just wanted this to be over. Dixie was always on time for court and tried her best to get it to move forward. It was issues with the courts so it was out of her hands. I did my part far as gathering all my witnesses and any documents Dixie requested. I finally went to court last week and I was awarded SOLE CUSTODY of my son and his father has to have SUPERVISED visitation. I couldn’t be more happier. I can’t thank Dixie enough for being there for me every step of the way. If you need a lawyer please hire Dixie Brown. You won’t be disappointed.

Divorce Lawyer - Best there is!

It is so nice to know that this world still has not only competent but caring lawyers! Dixie Brown handled my divorce and always kept me up to date, took the time to always answer my questions until I fully understood. She was timely in every step of the process, never leaving me wondering. I was ...so stressed before I started the divorce process and once I contacted her, she truly put my mind at ease and the stress seemed to disappear. I would recommend Dixie Brown to anyone that wants the best on their side.

Custody

Ms Brown handling of my custody case with my two sons was a win for me and my boys. After bringing my x to court several times each outcome was satisfactory. Nevertheless I have custody of my sons now and the mother has supervised visitation.
