Put my family as if she were fighting for her own

Bhyllie was a firecracker in the courtroom! She has a classy, but yet in your face with facts attitude. If I could sum her up in one word, it would be AMAZING. She fought for me and my children as if she were fighting for her own. She made me feel very comfortable and I knew she would slay in the cou...rtroom. And did. In the highest heels and upstanding ensembles. Do not be fooled by her beauty. She is a beast in the court in the courtroom and I can’t thank her enough for the turnout.

Absolutely love Bhyllie Mouton

I had a consultation with attorney Bhyllie Mouton in march 2022. From the very first word spoken I knew she was the lawyer, I needed to help with getting custody of my son. She answered every question I had. She made sure I understood what I needed to do. Even tho I wasn't able to pay her she still t...old me what I needed to do. i will be hiring Bhyllie Mouton to represent myself and my son. ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND ATTORNEY BHYLLIE MOUTON!!!!!!!

Never have I met anyone more confident!

I put off getting an attorney for a year to finalize my divorce because I was nervous of just the thought of going to court. I finally got in touch with Bhyllie and from the moment she started talking I knew I had nothing to worry about. She made sure that my mind was at ease throughout the entire pr...ocess. The night before the hearing she replied to my anxious texts until almost midnight and kept reassuring me that everything would be just fine. On the court date Bhyllie walked in to the court house with more confidence and more put together than any other attorney there and more than anyone I have ever seen. As a business owner myself I would only wish to have a fraction of the confidence that Bhyllie had in court. Bhyllie was not only confident that we would win but she carried it through and we received everything that we needed and beyond. I have 11 kids and Bhyllie still represented me well enough for a good outcome. When people say that the court rules in the mother’s favor. Don’t believe it! Bhyllie proved that this statement is absolutely false. A wise person once told me “anyone can study and become a lawyer but direction and being process driven is what separates you from the rest” and Bhyllie followed and carried through every process needed to take care of me as her client and it all payed off!

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.

Amazing

I walked in to the law office nervous, upset and very concerned about the wellbeing of my children. Within a few seconds she calmed any nervousness and worries from my mind and walked me through the process. She was very professional and also very caring about my children. She makes you feel like fa...mily and that you have a voice and she will never stop fighting for the wellbeing of the children. I thank God for her and what she stands for. It is a blessing to know I have her in our corner to protect the rights of all children. Thank you for accepting your calling to assist parents on getting their children rights back. I know firsthand that she has put a smile on my kids face which makes me a better dad. Thank you from all of us.

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.
