Tamara Shari Benefield

Tamara Benefield is a professional expert in Family Law! Aside from her professionalism and expertise, she was present with me, very easy to talk to. She clearly understood my concerns. She boldly represented, and fought for me in the Courtroom! I walked away satisfied with the outcome of my situatio...n. I would highly recommend Tamara Benefield to anyone who might need a Family Law Attorney. Joyce

I'm a single mother of a 7yr old boy. I've been searching for an attorney that not only understands my financial state but who works really empower me in their legal approach. I've consulted with many types of lawyers that had an aggressive approach but their interpersonal skills and ability to truly... meet me where I was, seemed lacking. From my first initial consultation through the end of my legal proceedings, Ms. Tamara impressed me. Her knowledge doesn't only encompass family law, but includes an extensive amount of skills and knowledge in others areas that as a whole experience left me in tears of gratitude, empowerment, and happiness I haven't felt in 7 years struggling with my domestic violence case. My case was not a slam dunk each corner we turned together. My situation involved an insidious acts of abuse that were incredibly difficult to prove, meanwhile my son was suffering with anxiety, fear, and worry caused by our visitation schedule that I had tried so hard to move forward with smoothly. Ms. Benefield is like a mad scientist in the court system, navigating and adjusting quickly and tactfully through the curve balls thrown during court proceedings. As a licensed family therapist myself, I cannot believe today that I found such an amazing advocate with such a complex understanding of diverse situations and issues within family issues. I highly recommend Ms. Tamara, as she took my seed of hope and turned it into a fruitful blossom I never knew eww possible. My recommendation is to trust her through the process, however, and don't let your anxieties through the legal proceedings trickle onto your advocate, as to not make what you are going through even more complex. You must do your homework and be able to communicate your history with as concrete facts as possible as to work collaboratively with her intense, aggressive, and objective direction. Thank you Ms. Tamara, you have eternally changed my son's life as well as mine!

It's rare that you find a lawyer who truly LOVES their craft. Tamara is one of those rarities. In handling my child visitation issues, Tamara exuded a confidence - both in and out of the courtroom - that can only come from a person who takes customer service and accountability seriously. From ...the onset, her knowledge of the law, familial dynamics, courtroom climate, and the need to account for her client's personal sensitivities were apparent. From the time she was hired through the close of my issue, she was patient, forthright, ethical, and a pleasure to be around. I felt that she never approached me as just "another client," but rather an understanding friend for whom she was ready to go to bat for. If you're on the fence about hiring her... get off of it. ;)

When I filed for divorce I was nervous and scared about how I was going to do this on my own with my children. I didn't want and couldn't afford a stressful, protracted court battle. She heard me loud and clear. She devised a clear and workable strategy, worked diligently with opposing counsel and g...ot me and my ex-spouse to reach settlement. My children didn't have to see either of their parents stressed out but I was still able to acheive my ultimate goals and needs. One thing that was not written in any agreement and something I hadn't bargained for, yet received, is Ms. Benefield always calming my nerves, helping me to remain patient and showing me the light at the end of the tunnel. She treated me as more than a client, but as a friend and fighter for my rights. She helped me remain strong through what could have been a devastating process.
