Wish I could give him a zero

Ray Chamberlain is a worthless non concerned attorney. Unless you have an easy case or lots of money he will do nothing for you. His staff is about as stupid as they come, lots of lip service no action. Wouldn't recommend him if my life depended on it

Great Attorney

Ray and his staff were very professional and so personable. They were very sincere and compassionate with our case as my husband was adopting my daughter after her father passed away. They did a fantastic job of keeping us updated and made the process as smooth and as stress free as possible. During ...the court hearing, Ray, made sure he represented our family accordingly and was there to celebrate our new journey with us when the judge granted the adoption! We would absolutely recommend him to anyone else looking to hire a family law attorney! Great job!

Divorce with a child

Ray was excellent. He handled my divorce in Colorado while I had moved to Tennessee with my daughter. Gave me information that allowed me to leave the state with my daughter prior to the divorce being filed. Handled all the paperwork and commuted well communicated well with me. Gives great advice the... divorce cost a lot but the results were definitely well worth it.

Great Service

Ray represented me in a contested custody case and did a great job! His office always responded timely to my questions, they were in constant contact with me, they followed through and Ray was well prepared for all hearings. Ray was aggressive in court and obtained a better than expected result for... me and my family. I would recommend him to anyone needing help with a family law case.

So glad I switched lawyers and hired Ray!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Ray and feel extremely fortunate to have discovered his legal services when I did. I had originally filed for divorce through the nation-wide law firm "Cordell & Cordell" and was extremely dissatisfied with their exhorbitant fees and severe lack of client care. Aft...er talking on the phone, I made the decision to switch to Ray as I found him much easier to relate to. He explained relevant legal processes in a practical way without dragging me through the weeds. Additionally, he wisely engineered a comprehensive legal strategy specifically designed for my case and executed it to perfection. He listened to my positions and was willing to represent me in a much more thorough manner than Cordell and Cordell. Certain aspects of my case were already generally pre-determined due to existing case law, but Ray fought for my position against long odds anyway which really made me feel like he was on my team. Ray is an experienced lawyer in family law and previously had a stellar career reaching the pinnacle of the milary legal environment as a senior Air Force JAG officer. The judge's final decision in my divorce case ended up being more favorable than anything I could have expected and the credit goes to Ray and his team of paralegals who prepared an impressive argument which held the day in court. I enthusiastically recommend Ray's legal expertise to any military personnel or civilian requiring family law needs. As the owner of his own firm, I think he has more of a vested interest in adequately representing his clients as best he can and I found his rates to be relatively affordable. Thanks again Ray! I feel very strongly that if I had stayed with my previous lawyer, there is no way my case would have turned out as well as it did with you!
