Divorce

Lance guided me through my divorce quickly and professionally. He clearly cares about his clients well-being in the long run and is great about giving advice in a straight forward, but caring manner. I couldn’t have picked a better team. Thank you.

Child Custody

Anyone that knows me, knows that I can be a bit stubborn, hard headed, and persistently aggressive. Lance and his WHOLE staff worked tirelessly and took time away from their families to bring mine together. They communicated with us every step of the way, even through my craziness. While I would “fre...ak out” they stayed calm and reassured me every step of the way. Our situation was beyond unique, and rather crazy. That did not stop Lance! He was very professional, and heart felt in this unique situation with my step daughter. It was a very delicate situation and he powered through with such ease. He called the first night that we were able to bring her home. He spoke with us, and spoke with my step daughter. He still continues to check up on her. That is not just some lawyer wanting to make a quick buck. This a man that gives everything he has to make sure that your family gets what you need. I do not trust many people, but I would trust Lance 100% with any legal matter from here on out.

Job well done!!!

Lance has assisted me on a couple of child custody matters. Lance has done awesome at everything. Lance is very knowledgeable and can answer all you're questions and even guide's you in making the right decisions if you are not sure. His staff takes care of you from the moment you walk in the door an...d makes you very comfortable. I will never use anyone else when it comes to custody or family law.

  • 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.
