Child Custody Case

Tessa was a great attorney. We went into a custody battle with my husband's ex-wife trying to get joint legal custody with a son that was my husbands and a son that my husband had raised that was not his biological child. Tessa helped my husband to gain joint custody of both children and have the l...aw recognize that the youngest son was his. Because of her hard work we will never have to worry about losing the younger child like the threats previous to court. It just so happens that during the custody battle, the ex-wife also decided to commit a crime to try to throw my husband in jail showing that he had done things that he hadn't done. Tessa was patient and helped us not only through the child custody case but was a great help and support through the ex-wife's criminal case as well. She also fought to get our attorney fees repaid to us by the ex-wife. If it wasn't for Tessa's hard work and commitment to our case we wouldn't have our family complete and whole again. She is the reason there have been many happy memories made since this horrible ordeal. If you want an attorney that really cares on an individual level you should hire Tessa. She is great.
