Thrive Family Law is a gem

I feel SO lucky to have worked with Thrive Family Law. I contacted Jamie in a moment of desperation- my permanent orders hearing was only a few weeks out, opposing council had been routinely ignoring my lawyer's emails, and it seemed we were destined to go to court. Despite the incredibly tight timel...ine, Jamie was willing to step in. Immediately, she got things moving in the right direction. She was courteous but forceful, organized and on top of the key details and procedures. I'm sure I came across as an anxious wreck, but she answered all of my questions and concerns calmly and thoughtfully. Her experience and knowledge gave me so much more confidence heading into a last-ditch (second) attempt at mediation. While that mediation was stressful and frustrating, Jamie was professional and effective. We were able to settle at mediation and avoided a costly and painful day in court. A couple last things to mention: Tracy the paralegal has been a pleasure to work with and a critical part of the Thrive practice. She is organized, efficient, and a great communicator, all of the things you want in a paralegal. Also, although any family law attorney is going to be incredibly expensive, I do think that Jamie is very conscious of costs and does what she can to minimize, rather than magnify, the expenses that her clients incur. The divorce process is absolutely horrible, but going through it with Thrive will help you to feel in control, confident that your interests are being represented effectively.

The best lawyer in the world

Divorce is an extremely challenging journey financially, mentally, emotionally, and physiologically. I could not be more blessed to have had Jamie Paine as my guide through that journey. I'm also extremely grateful for the extensive legwork her team including Robert Voorhees and Tracy Spiegel put i...nto my case. My divorce involved an under-employed spouse who wanted to relocate to a different state with our two young children as well as investment properties and other assets. While I'm sure it wasn't the most complex case Jamie has dealt with, it was far from simple. From the onset, Jamie approached the case with compassion and a keen eye on minimizing impact on the children. Whether it was making suggestions on how to keep attorney fees to a minimum, wisdom on how to effectively transition to two homes or set up a nesting arrangement, or guidance on interaction with the other party, Jamie was the soundest of counsel and genuinely put my children's wellbeing at the top of her priority list. When it became exceedingly clear that the opposing counsel was not going to make a genuine attempt to settle the case, Jamie and her team rolled up their sleeves and went to battle with a strategy to win the war. Jamie had a thorough grasp on this case and assembled a compelling Joint Trial Management Certificate that prompted the Judge to have a meeting with both attorneys before the trial began in earnest to advise how he was likely to rule on the key elements of the case and suggested the parties attempt to settle the case with those rulings in mind. In the end, the case was settled in the courtroom hallway with a result that was a stone's throw away from my best case scenario and hundreds of miles away from what the other party wanted. I can confidently say there are few people who have had a more profound impact on my life and the life of my children than Jamie and her team and I will be forever grateful for the tenacity with which they adopted my fight and the result their efforts delivered. Thank you, Jamie, Robert, and Tracy.

Not all heroes wear capes

If you are a future client thinking about hiring Jamie Paine, trust me: You want her in your corner every step of the way. In these situations, you need an attorney with immense law knowledge. Still, equally important, you need an attorney who truly cares about you and your children's future. I want ...to thank Jamie and Tracy for the unrelenting work they have done and continue to do for myself and my children. My case was messy, extremely contentious, long, and involved multiple courts. Jamie has always been honest and realistic about what we were up against but kept pushing forward to pursue my children's best interests, even when I wanted to give up. My family's history has forever changed for the better. Jamie and Tracy were by my side, fighting for what was right for the children and getting justice for me. She helped me find my voice and fight for myself, something I hadn't done for many years. She has single-handedly been one of the most impactful persons in my life because of who she is, her work, and her unrelenting pursuit of doing what is right for her clients while maintaining the highest standard of morals and ethics. Jamie and Tracy, if you read this, thank you! You are not only my heroes but also my children's. Thank you for helping me find my voice. Thank you for being there when I had no one else. Thank you for talking me off the ledge when I spiraled. You are exactly what the universe knew I needed, and I will always direct people your way.

Fantastic - you cannot go wrong with Jamie Paine

I highly recommend Jamie Paine at Griffiths Law, along with paralegal Tracy Spiegel. While working through a legal situation that became far more adversarial and difficult than I'd ever imagined, Jamie was a knowledgeable and steady guide, stepping in to handle challenges for me, and ensuring I was m...aking sound, well-informed decisions along the way. Her expertise and insight is impressive, and her work ethic unmatched. I trust Jamie 100%, now and in the future. Tracy was also an incredible help and support throughout the process. She, like Jamie, was highly responsive, kept me updated, and clearly explained situations that were new territory for me. Both Jamie and Tracy were, and still are, remarkable people to have on my team, and I'm thankful to have engaged them. They are invaluable.

You need her in your court

It’s hard to say for me. I was shaking like a leaf. Literally, shaking before a hearing because I could not get on a zoom call because the court provided wrong instructions. Jamie calmed me down and walked me through the new zoom instructions and just schooled the opposing attorney,. Her case law exp...erience blew him up! Loved it!
