Exceptional Attorney/ Child Custody case

After being divorced for several years and having a 50/50 legal and physical custody, my ex-wife sought full custody and supervised visitations for me every other weekend. On short notice, I was told about the court hearing. I began frantically calling various attorneys and became frustrated and d...emoralized. I called Ms. Buchanan and explained the situation. Ms. Buchanan was able to prove me with sound advice and a course of action. Because of Ms. Buchanan's knowledge of the law, case preparation and work ethic we were triumph at every court hearing. After all was said and done, I was awarded 100% legal custody and primary physical custody 80/20. Ms. Buchanan took a vested interest in my case, and provided me with exceptional service. Her fees were on par with every other attorney I had previously spoken to. Donald

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
