Trust Stephanie
Stephanie and associates at her firm guided me through a very messy divorce. She was always the voice of reason and provided reassurances when I felt like giving up. In the end, she was correct about everything, and my damages were very, very limited largely in part to her performance during arbitr...

"I highly endorse Stephanie Proffitt. Stephanie and I have worked together on several high profile CPS cases for parents that have been wrongly accused of child abuse, and every time we have been able to have the kids returned and the case dismissed."
"Stephanie is a hardnosed advocate for her clients. Still, she remains extremely caring toward her clients and their wellbeing. Such a balance is a rarity in the Family Law arena. Stephanie is well known at the Courthouse and her reputation is strong. Her right arm is Catti and she is one of the best legal assistant's I have ever known. Divorce is a difficult process, but having a good and respected lawyer can make a world of difference."
"She is an excellent attorney. I've seen her cross-examine CPS workers on cases where she has been appointed by the court to represent the children. She's tough and she does her homework!"
