Posted by anonymous | March 12, 2015 | Child Custody

Family first

I hired April to take a custody case for me. She sat and talked to me for hours at our first meeting, making me totally at ease. She explained to me everything that we needed to do and the total it would cost for her to represent me. When we went to court she really fought for me and my children's we...ll being. I would recommend her to anyone that I run accross!
