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.

Thank you Jamie

Jamie helped me navigate an emotionally challenging divorce with love and grace and ease. Her legal expertise made me feel cared for and confident going into mediation. Jamie took her time explaining the process to me, helping me understand my rights and, setting clear expectations. She advocated ...for me in a kind, yet clear way. I am very pleased and relieved with the outcome. Because of Jamie, my ex-husband and I were able to reach a settlement agreement without going to trial. Without hesitation, I give Jamie my fullest recommendation.

Highest Recommendation

We cannot recommend Ms. Jamie Paine more highly. Jamie is an extraordinarily talented attorney with experience as a trial and family law lawyer. Her mastery of the law regarding family law and the allocation of parental rights led us to an outcome many would not have believed. The overwhelmingly ...favorable final order entered by the judge defied many expectations about grandparents receiving co-parenting rights. We believe Jamie's expertise, legal arguments, and management of hearings and filings were extremely persuasive and resulted in such a positive outcome. As grandparents, our situation was complex. We had lost our daughter to illness and were fighting to maintain contact with the granddaughter we had been primarily responsible for until our daughter passed. Grandparents face an uphill battle when fighting for parental rights. Finding the right lawyer to handle a complex allocation of parental rights can be daunting. Before finding Jamie, we had a different lawyer who was not up to managing our case and wasted a lot of money. Finally, a referral from a family member brought us to Jamie. Jamie gave us straightforward, reasoned legal advice compassionately and clearly. She and her team managed all filings and hearings professionally and on time. In addition, Jamie helped us navigate complex communications with our granddaughter's father when necessary. Her advice was invaluable as the year-and-a-half process moved forward. In filings and hearings, we saw firsthand how vital an expert attorney is to success. There was a high contrast between how Jamie performed and opposing attorneys performed. She was always prepared, prepared other witnesses and us to testify, and had all documents ready for us during court proceedings. Our confidence in Jamie is unparalleled. Please contact her if you need family law help.

trustworthy and goes to bat for clients!

I was in great hands with Jamie. She advocated for me and what she felt was right based on her deep experience. She also did not waste time to rack up fees - every conversation was professional and efficient! Definitely recommend her to others.

Thank you, Jamie

Getting divorced is a challenging time. Jamie made it easier for me by communicating effectively and promptly, getting to know me and truly seeking the best for my situation, working as a team with Tracy and Leslie to make sure everything was covered. When I had hard moments, she gave me space to pro...cess and was available whenever I had questions. My hope is that you would never need her services, but if you do, Jamie will stand with you and have your back during a time of enormous transition.
