Best Attorney Ever

Best attorney out there

It has taken me some time to figure out what to write in regards to Mr Spear because no matter what I say its going to be an understatement of how amazing of an attorney he is. He joined my very difficult and dragged out dissolution case later on but picked up on the essence of the case, the issues a...nd both parties strategies immediately and he started moving all matters forward. Mr Spear is fair, brutally honest, efficient, caring, very respectful and will represent his clients with integrity. He is very experienced and knew exactly how to proceed with the issues we had, he puts his clients first and will always ensure his clients are in good standing with the opposite party and the court. I can't rave enough about Mr Spear, I have spent more than 2 years fighting a lengthy complex battle against my ex husband and I am finally able to breathe knowing Mr Spear is handling my case. Best dissolution attorney out there.

Exceptional Service

I received exceptional service from Paul Spear of Family Law Support. His professionalism, compassion and attention to detail made a very difficult time in my life considerably less daunting. Furthermore, Family Law Support's legal fees were much less than any other attorney I interviewed. With sin...cerity I recommend him and his firm to anyone going through difficult family legal issues.

My hero!

With only 2 weeks left until my evidentiary hearing, Paul took on my complex parentage, custody, and restraining order case. I thought I'd have to go it alone, but Paul came to my rescue. Very knowledgeable and painfully honest, he genuinely cared about my case and I am forever grateful to him for al...l of his hard work and compassion.

Thank you Thank you!!!

I have been going though a difficult divorce and custody struggle it seems like forever. I hired Mr. Spear and within 3 months everything was settled and resolved. He preaches settlement a lot and I am happy to say it isn't just words. Just wow! Honest and professional. Thank you so much.
