Mediated divorce

I am so thankful for Tyler and his team. Having known Tyler before my divorce I knew his work ethic and turned to him when my ex and I decided to get divorced. We chose to mediate everything and agreed to terms prior to hiring Tyler, but we needed help with the legal side of everything. There is no w...ay we could have drafted, agreed to and submitted our divorce without him. Tyler and his team helped us through the entire process and because of that our daughter has 2 happy parents who don't hate each other and agreed to terms that were best for her. Absolutely recommend and will be using in the future for any legal documents I might need.

We were very well served and we always felt like we were part of a team with powerful resources representin...g us. Tyler and his staff were able to secure for us a very good settlement. We will always be grateful to him and his team!

Ty Pennington has been amazing throughout all the legal stress. He was insanely hardworking, supportive and amazing throughout this entire process and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Highly recommend a great attorney

Tyler has been my lawyer for a few years and recently assisted me with a court case dismissal. This was a tough case and Tyler did an excellent job representing me. I was present for the pretrial hearing and observe how impressive he was interacting with the county attorneys and I could see how well-...respected Tyler was in the court room. I am glad and grateful to have Tyler on my side. If you want a professional, knowledgeable, hardworking, and thorough attorney, I highly recommend Tyler Pennington with Pennington Law.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
