    We just used Tyler again. This time to get a Felony record reduced to a Misdemeanor, and he was fantastic. Got the job done presented the client and himself greatly, he gave good advice prior to going in to court and made the whole thing a wonderful experience with a positive outcome for everyone.. We could not be happier. I strongly recommend Tyler for your needs.. We have used him more than once and will continue to use him when a Lawyer is needed.

    Tyler was very good at responding to my emails and phone calls regarding my case. He was very knowledgable and was very good at explaining legal jargon, so that I could understand it. Tyler was very good at letting me know what options I had for my case. I would definitely recommend him.

    I used Tyler for my Divorce lawyer, and he was excellent in every way. It went super smooth an with his expertise it went fast. I would highly recommend Tyler for anyone going through a divorce. He also helped me through a bankruptcy, which went easier than I thought it would. He led me through it and was there for support the whole way. I would also recommend him highly for this area..

    We hired Tyler on two separate occasions recently and he was great. He made sure that everything was taken care of and kept us totally informed all the time. I can't say enough good about the way everything was handled. I would definitely use him again in a heartbeat. Awesome service all the way around.

    Highly recommend Tyler McGee

    Tyler was very up front and honest with us while representing us with our case. We felt he was very fair at providing the best possible service, while also doing what he could to minimumize our legal fees and settle out case as quickly as possible. We have recommended him to several people.

    This Attorney it’s not cheap. For the money I expected more help in getting stimulus and retirement money from my ex. After the divorce was final and my account closed, he wasn’t responsive to my emails or calls. I needed more help and when he finally responded, he wanted $1000 to 1500 more. Had to just hope and wait 6 months for funds to be turned over to me. Still waiting.
