DO NOT HIRE ANYONE ELSE FOR YOUR FAMILY LAW ISSUE!!!

After hiring 2 other attorney's whom failed me, I hired Mr. York and thank God I did! I found out about 70% of his clients come from client who hired other attorney's and found their way to him due to complex issues that are over the head of most other attorneys. He is professional, and alway...s responds to my calls and emails. I was always kept in the loop and never did I have to guess about the status of my case. Where others failed, he picked up my case and won! I know my case was a "handful" for his office but they always assured me with confidence and their whole office responded to my every need. At the end of my case I was very satisfied and they wouldn't let me settle for anything less than I deserved. Thank you Mr. York!!! I would recommend him for all of your family needs, and have no reservations in getting what you pay for. He's not inexpensive but well worth every penny!!! Trust and learn from me, before you pay for substandard attorneys pay the price and hire Mr. York. You'll get your investment back and then some. It's much wiser to hire him first before paying to hire him after other attorneys have failed you. I wish I would have hired him first, but I'm glad I hired him last. His personal attention was stellar. Thanks again and I hope this guides other people going through what I did. DO NOT hire anyone else. Trust me!!!

Douglas York is a great attorney.

Douglas has been appointed by the Judge to represent my kids twice. He has done an outstanding job of doing so while keeping his legal fees within reason. He meet with each of my children individually and acted in their best interest without revealing what had been discussed with each child. He alway...s conducted himself in a professional manner and adhered to the highest level of integrity and ethics. My only regret is that now I can't hire him to represent me.

A+ Lawyer!

Mr. York aggressively fought for me throughout my whole case, and always kept me informed every step of the way. His office was fully equipped to handle my very complex and highly contentious divorce against my husband in our child custody case. He never backed down and never gave up. I cannot t...hank him enough for all of his hard work.

Great attorney - definitely would use again

Mr. York handled my family law case very professionally and quickly. Things could not have gone smoother, and me did exactly what he said he would do. I am very pleased with the results, and would recommend him to anyone needing a good family law attorney.
