Exactly who I needed during a hard time

Going through a divorce is never easy, and it was no different for me. I needed a reliable attorney for my case, which involved more substantial assets, and thankfully, a trusted friend referred me to Tammy. From the beginning, she was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. Tammy was always avai...lable to answer any questions I had. I had a question about a bill once and I was worried from past experience that it would turn into a fight, but Tammy patiently resolved my concerns, drawing from a detailed record of the work she'd done to represent me. Her expert handling of my case led to a satisfactory agreement with my ex-spouse. I am grateful for her guidance and professionalism during such a difficult time. I highly recommend Tammy to anyone looking for competent and compassionate legal support in a divorce.

Custody Battle

Going through a custody battle is definitely one of the worst experiences I’ve ever has, and the best decision in that situation was to go to Tammy Andrews. I never has envisioned how confusing and stressful any court process could be, and Tammy really made it all simple and really went out of her wa...y to diffuse the battle and make sure my interests were taken care of. Tammy is so well respected by the judges and really knows the ins and outs of the court system and she really knows the law. If you need an attorney who cares about her clients and can really hold her own with any of those big bucks law firms, Tammy is the person to call. I was up against one of the biggest family court law firms in LA and in the end it was Tammy’s professionalism, knowledge, and experience that got me what I needed. The resolution was better than I could have imagined. If I ever had a friend go through something this horrible, I’d waste no time and send him or her to Tammy.
