Long Distance Child Custody and Mediation Success

Amber and her team were amazing! As an active duty military member, stationed overseas, I already had a divorce decree and child custody/visitation agreement in the state of Florida. This agreement was very one-sided and my ex (and daughter) had relocated to the state of Texas. I contacted Amber an...d discussed my concerns. Amber immediately impressed me with her calm demeanor and knowledge of family court/child custody agreements. It was a long uphill battle for quite some time, as I had to communicate from overseas via emails and skype. Additionally, my ex was not as easy to work with. There were also issues moving the case to TX, as the opposing council did not want to this nor the mediation to occur. Bottom line, Amber assisted me in making this process easy, she answered all questions in an extremely timely manner and was extremely thorough with my case. She was honest and gave me real feedback on what the outcome may be dependent on each scenario. I never doubted Amber and am extremely satisfied. We were able to move things to TX and mediate. I would highly recommend Amber Shemesh to my closest friends and family. She is an amazing attorney. I cannot thank her enough for being patient, thorough and to keep me moving in the right direction. This all occurring with 6 hour time difference, 10,000 miles and COVID to boot. Thank you Amber for your amazing work! I honestly cannot express my gratitude to her and her team, words alone are not enough.

Divorce

Amber was vital in helping me through my divorce. During the entire process, she demonstrated knowledge and confidence stemming from her experience in her field of practice. She also showed compassion and understanding in what was otherwise a difficult time in my life. She quickly answered any and... all questions that I had, and helped me understand the process from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Amber for anyone looking for help getting through any family-related legal matter.

Great Work Thanks Shemesh Family Law

As the "out spouse" from the beginning of the case Amber was understanding of financial considerations to try and keep costs down. Her communication is superb, responding to emails late in the evening or even on the weekends for matters not even considered urgent or emergencies. She doesn't leave y...ou hanging and stressed out waiting for answers and responses. Though costs did get out of hand she was dealing with an aggressive opposing counsel and an unreasonable ex spouse who tried to steamroll my rights and intimidate me into signing a very lopsided unfair settlement using less than honorable tactics. She was able to protect me in a high conflict contentious divorce that would have left my life in ruins without her support and caring attitude about my well being and that of my children. Her attitude, approach, experience, and skills are superb. Stellar representation is to be found at Shemesh Family Law, her new firm she is working hard to build. Please consider her for your legal matter if your children or case is important to you to achieve the best outcome.

Highly Recommend

Amber is the calm during the storm. I feel that she is concerned about me and is a genuine, caring person. I have worked with Amber on 2 divorces. She sets the expectations properly, listens to what your objectives are, and then works diligently to achieve your goals. She has a great knowledge of the... law, the people who work the system and what their preferences/prejudices are. She is very cost conscientious, working with me to keep costs down. I have worked with other Attorney’s on other matters and I felt that she was easier to work with, more responsive and represented my interests better, by far. I highly recommend her.”
