Shirley Sutherland

Shirley and Amanda Sutherland were excellent for me in my Divorce. They were very professional and compassionate about my situation that my now ex-wife had been putting me through. Amanda was a key source in the process keeping me abreast of dates and important information during the process of the... Divorce. Shirley was very instrumental in picking a very good and fair Mediator during the process which helped me obtain everything I was looking to win in the Divorce proceedings. I owe a huge "Thank You" to these two ladies during this stressful time in my life!

Shirley and her team are outstanding—truly remarkable. They handled my divorce initially, and the results were exactly what I had hoped and asked for. When my situation changed and I needed to modify custody arrangements due to changes in my ex’s living environment, there was no question who I was... calling—I went straight back to Shirley and her team. What really sets them apart is not just how effective they are, but how approachable and supportive they make the process feel. They are extremely prompt, tactfully aggressive when it matters, and true advocates for their clients. At the same time, they take the time to listen and make sure you feel understood every step of the way. You can tell they genuinely care. Honestly, I don’t know when they sleep. If you’re looking for a team that will fight for you while also making you feel comfortable and supported, this is the one. Your Search is done!

Family law is not just legal paperwork—it is your life, your peace, and your child’s future. Who you choose to represent you matters more than words can fully express. Looking back, I truly believe God ordered my steps when I found Shirley Sutherland and her team. Before working with them, I wa...s in a very difficult position. My previous attorney mishandled my case, created confusion, and left things in disarray. It was overwhelming, stressful, and honestly discouraging. Making the decision to switch attorneys felt risky at the time—but it turned out to be the most powerful and necessary decision I could have made for myself and my daughter. From day one, Shirley and Amanda stepped in with clarity, confidence, and purpose. They didn’t just take over my case—they restored it. They carefully untangled every issue, corrected what had been mishandled, and built a strong foundation moving forward. Amanda is incredibly detail-oriented and thorough—nothing gets missed. Shirley is strategic, fearless, and unwavering in her pursuit of truth. Together, they create a team that is both compassionate and powerful. You can feel that they genuinely care—they carry your case with intention and treat it like it truly matters. Throughout the process, the opposing party filed repeated motions filled with inaccuracies and unnecessary conflict. But Shirley handled each one with precision and strength, consistently bringing everything back to facts and truth. Watching her stand firm and advocate so effectively gave me a level of peace I didn’t think was possible during a divorce. What stood out the most was their ability to see what my case needed before I even knew to ask. Their recommendation and support in bringing in an Amicus Attorney was a turning point in ensuring my child’s best interest remained the focus. That level of advocacy is rare. I have been on my knees praying to God for a specific outcome—and I have truly witnessed Him turn what the enemy meant for evil into something that worked for my good and my daughter’s good. Shirley and Amanda were a part of that answered prayer, and I do not take that lightly. They are responsive, attentive, and incredibly supportive. They lifted a heavy emotional burden off of me and allowed me to focus on being present for my child. During one of the most challenging seasons of my life, they provided not just legal support—but reassurance, strength, and guidance. I can confidently say Shirley and Amanda are God-sent. The progress and outcomes I am seeing today align with prayers I have prayed in my lowest moments. If you are facing a highly contested divorce and feel overwhelmed, this is the team you want beside you. They lead with integrity, operate with excellence, and fight with purpose. I am forever grateful for them.
