Amazing lawyer

The Crider law family has helped me out with my recent case! They made the process stress free and were so helpful with any and all questions I had!! I would recommend them to anyone!

Amazing

The relationship with my ex has been deemed high conflict and for a reason. To say co-parenting with my ex is exhausting would be an understatement. I have been in court for roughly five years battling various accusations including parental alienation, child neglect and abuse. I was facing losing pri...mary residence and all decision making rights. Because of this, I wanted to be represented by someone who was willing to get into the trenches with me and fight the accusations. Brad and his team did just that. His lead paralegal, Kelly, even gave me some advice that turned the case upside down in the best way possible. Brad, Kelly, and Shelby worked extremely hard for me and my kids. They were available to answer questions and to even offer emotional support when needed. They do not sugar coat possible outcomes, which can be hard to hear sometimes but I wouldn’t have it any other way. When we finally had trial in September, Brad was able to expose my ex for who she truly is thus making future cases easier to fight. I was able to keep primary residence, final decision making and more. I honestly don’t know if that would have happened if I had hired someone else. Brad and his team have won my trust and my respect. As mentioned, I know there will be more court cases in the future and I will use Brad for every single one. My advice would be to hire Brad from the very beginning if you want someone 100% on your side. Thank you Brad, Kelly, and Shelby for everything! Our family will forever be grateful for all y’all have done for us.

Brad is the man you want!! Simply Amazing!!

I cannot write a better review for Brad and his associate Kelly. They were able to literally change my life. He was able to win a case for me that was considered "impossible" ending all spousal support!! Woohooo!! Also, on extremely short notice, they were able to quickly terminate my child suppo...rt payments. Brad didn't nickel and dime me for everything like a lot of attorneys would have and he even gave me a military discount! Best of all, Brad and Kelly made me feel important at a time in my life when I really needed it and I consider them a huge blessing in my life!

Efficient with great results!

Brad Crider and his legal team especially Kelly Grundell were amazing to work with. They made this unfortunate event of my wife leaving a smooth experience when it came to the legal matters. I can't thank them enough for helping out and being extremely reasonable and flexible. I highly recommend them... for your family law needs.

Successful Child Support Case, Termination of Parental Rights, and Adoption

Brad and his team helped us through a few vital processes that led to the complete family we have today. He worked with us on our child support case, termination of parental rights, and then ended with an adoption case for my daughter. I could not have done any of these on my own. Brad is well kno...wn in family court and his expertise was vital in all of our court proceedings. Me and my husband had to do very little, with Brad and his team taking on all of the work. It is so important for court documents to be filed correctly, to be represented in a professional way, and to have clear instructions on what is needed of you when going to court. Brad prepared us and we were confident in his services because he provided all of that. Don't worry if communication is light between you and his team. They are busy and at the end of the day, they know exactly what they are doing. They won't waste your money on a million calls or emails. They will only contact you when absolutely necessary in order to make the most out of your retainer. Thank you Brad and Crider Law for all of your hard work and ultimately being the reason we have a complete (legal) family today. I wouldn't have been able to pick anyone more suited for the job with the exact results we hoped for.
