Michael navigated me through toughest part of my life

When I had a gut feeling in the pit of my stomach, that something had changed in my marriage I had to look into. It would of been a lot easier to turn a blind eye, and keep going with the daily grind and to live unhappily married ever after. After nearly 10 years of marriage and only being 34, with 2... kids (4 and 6) I needed to make a change. I began my search for a family law attorney to help me with my divorce request and I came across Michael Allen. Michael wasn't my first call, but after the consultation he was my last. From the jump he made me feel comfortable with all the aspects of the process and what was going to happen. He took his time explaining to me the road map of a divorce case and was always honest with me. I never imagined I would have to experience this process in my lifetime, who would? His pricing was fair and upfront. There was never no hidden fees, costs, or coming back asking me for more and more money. The case followed the road map he said during our consultation. Michael always made himself available to me to ask any questions regardless the time or day. This was my 1st time going through a divorce and he really eased my concerns as I was scared to death and stressing. At the end of the day it was Michael and I going to battle against my now ex-wife and her attorney. Michael saved my assets by negotiating a fair deal that was right for both parties. I'm also thankful he helped get me joint legal and physical custody of my 2 kids 50/50. At the end of the day I never felt cheated and that was due to Michael's hard work. The division of assets, accounts, spousal support, child support, and visitation all was fair and I owe it all to Michael. Michael's attention to detail and thoroughness saved me a lot of money both upfront and the future till both my kids turn 18. They are 4 and 6 now so there is still a long ways to go having to co-parent them now with my ex. After the case was over he said he would always be there for me if anything comes up and I believe with trust him 100%. Thanks Michael for helping me out and that sums up why I have no issue referring him to anyone. He delivered results of what he said he was going to do! For that I will always be grateful.
