She's simply the best

Don't be fooled, the process of family court issues is not a quick one. There will be multiple hearings, filings, and even more if your ex is an addict or has other issues. This is precisely why you benefit from an attorney like Bhyllie. She makes a strategy that is well thought through and begins... the process to build your case for the best needs of her client. When curveballs come from the other side or from unforeseen circumstances, and they will, she is apt to recalculate the best strategy with the ultimate goal of getting the client satisfaction in the shortest time possible. She is respected highly in the court system from my observations as her rapport with other lawyers, judges, and even the courthouse staff is vibrant and productive. This ALL works to your benefit as she uses those great relationships to further her clients ultimate goals. For many lawyers, you are but a number, just another case. But if Bhyllie takes your case, you feel like family and she fights for you as if you are. Remember, no one has a magic bullet to rush through the family court process, no one. So if you're going to have to face the tedious legal process that requires patience, wisdom, and a positive attitude, there is NO lawyer better suited to be your voice. Period.

A Family Law Expert

I was referred to Bhyllie regarding my custody case. What started as a custody modification, quickly moved into an Exparte. Because of her extensive experience in family law, she was able to guide me through the legal steps we needed to take in order to modify custody and keep my child safe. She was ...compassionate, understanding and supportive. She was able to calm my fears and reassure me throughout the process. I highly recommend Bhyllie for anyone who needs an attorney who is not only experienced, but cares about their clients and their families.

Family Attorney

I hired Bhyllie to represent me for child support and custody proceedings about three months ago. From the very first interaction with her, she made my wife and I feel very comfortable and welcome. She has been very patient with me and understanding with every question and concern I’ve had. She expla...ined every detail of our process and proceedings with great detail. Bhyllie is extremely kind and caring. I would highly recommend her to anyone for their attorney. She has become a friend through this all and we couldn’t be more grateful for the assertiveness and professionalism she has shown.

Bhyllie Mouton

My husband and i hired Bhyllie to represent us as our family law attorney a month ago. The day we met her I knew there was no better attorney we could have hired. She knew nothing about us or the issue we were having. As we sat in her office for the consolation she was very professional and concerned... for our child's welfare. Once we left that meeting we knew right away that this was the right law firm for us. There has not been a time that we have called that she has not returned our call. I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs a great attorney.

Awesome attorney

Bhyllie was by far the most courteous and professional attorney I have ever dealt with. She handled my divorce and TRO with the utmost professionalism. My case went smooth and I got exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend her and her practice to anyone seeking a family law attorney. She's the... best!!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I do not like to endorse anyone, because it is a responsibility that I take seriously. But in this case I am honored to do that. Bhyllie and Shane are simply outstanding. It takes more than knowledge of the law to be a great lawyer. It also takes integrity, and honesty. Bhyllie and Shane are the the kind of lawyers I am proud of."

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.
