Posted by Cade | December 09, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Jeff is an expert in his craft...the first, last and only lawyer you will need.

Jeff Anderson, the ONDA Law Firm and his entire support staff were the ultimate professionals in managing and executing each step of the dreadful divorce process. The divorce was not something I wanted; Jeff took the time to understand the situation, my needs and wants, as well as educate me on my r...ights and the process to come. Jeff was diligent in taking on the burden a divorce creates, keeping me promptly informed with each development from opposing counsel and always protecting me and my best interests as a professional and a father. Divorce is an ugly thing that can happen for a number of reason and can have a number of outcomes for better or worse, but I couldn't imagine having a better lawyer in my corner than what I had with Jeff Anderson. Jeff, you are the best at what you do. Thank you!

Great Decision

Going through a divorce was such a helpless feeling. As a man I felt I was at the mercy of the courts. With my previous attorney the divorce went on for over a year, over $20k spent, with everything still up in the air and no end in sight. When I met Mr. Anderson his demeanor was professional, stern,... comforting, and most reassuring. I hired him at the last minute but I couldn't take spending another five thousand and not a thing done. He assembled his team and worked tirelessly and told me not to worry, everything would be taken care of. When we walked into the courtroom, Mr Anderson always had a strategy and he was able to adapt to whatever was thrown at him. I could tell he was loving what he was doing and fighting for me. I was on edge and he was calm and collected. We walked out of that court room 30 minutes later with not only a final decision, but much more than I asked for. Now it's time to heal. Thanks to Mr Anderson I can finally move on. Hiring him was the best decision I ever made throughout the process.

Captain Pit Bull(Mr. Jeffrey Anderson)

Mr. Anderson whom I dubbed "Captain Pit Bull" for obvious reasons is the finest lawyer I have ever been associated with in my thirty five years of high profile professional public service. When Mr. Anderson took over my case from another lawyer, he literally got more accomplished in the first 2 hou...rs than my previous lawyer had done in two years. I was and still am astounded. Mr. Anderson also along with a special counsellor for my son, took time to help guide me(as an older father of an only child) through parenting skills that not only helped the custody case, but "was the best thing for my son" and the majority of the time, that time spent by Mr. Anderson on personal matters with my son did not contribute to his pocket book. He bills realistically and fully guards his paralegals(affectionately dubbed BULLETTES, again by me)and their paralegal leader is a very personable and efficient Chief Bullette, Ms. Sharen . I know of no way that my nasty case could have been handled any better than did the Very Professional "Team Pit Bull". Thank Yall for giving mine and my son's lives back ! I will be forever indebted !
