Child’s best interest driven

Hired Bhyllie for my divorce w/ kids. She went in cool, calm, and collective. Even showed respect to the opposing party. She is very child’s best interest driven. Really can’t thank her enough.

Child Custody

First of all I would like to say if you think there is no hope and you’re at your wits end please give this law firm a call. Byllie is our main attorney and she has gone above and beyond!!!! Always available for answers. Even if I had one more question lol she was Understanding with that and always ...took her time to explain everything to me and to make me feel so much better. The reality of the situation is they are our attorneys and they know what is best for us. At times we are so confused and so emotionally drained that we just don’t think straight. At that point I would pick up the phone call Byllie voiced my concerns and she always made me feel 100% better. Shane also was involved and always came through. We are still on our journey but have come so far so much quicker than we ever anticipated. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who’s looking for honest hard-working dependable and absolutely always there for you anytime you need anything. Keep them in your prayers because I know what they do is not easy to say the least. And I also pray for all the parents out there going through that horrible custody battle that they could put their children first and see that means more than anything.

Life Savers

The best attorney isn’t always the one you see on billboards. To me the best attorney is the one who has the biggest heart, the most fight in them, the best interest of their client and the best interest of children. That attorney is none other than Bhyllie Mouton. Yet again she saved my kids lives b...y winning my custody battle and keeping them safe from harm. Myself and my children will forever be in your debt for being the best attorney ever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Shane is the Perfect lawyer for any situation. He had a plan of action and was very knowledgeable with my case. I encourage anyone to hire him. He got my divorce granted and child custody awarded to me

"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."
