I had an amazing experience with attorney Calhoon and got more than I expected for far less than I expected to pay. I recommend

Things worked out very well for me and my daughter, pretty quickly, and I plan to go back son for full custody when the timing is right. I retained attorney Calhoon when my ex of 15 years was dragging me back into court to try to take my time away with our daughter who is 10. Prior to hiring at...torney I was already losing with all my Christmas time taken away at the last minute. We worked together to develop a plan and we attempted to carry it out just as we discussed and planned. It worked a little at first, but not completely as we had hoped, so we changed direction a little, I worked on being "super dad" as we discussed, and the next hearing we got everything back and far more. I hope to have my daughter residing primarily with me soon, but I have already gone from about 20 percent to 43 percent with the Judge being convinced what mother had done at Christmas time was wrong. I couldn't be much happier. I was most impressed with this attorney from a superior law school and having received his doctorate at only 22, in the state assembly shortly thereafter, a former Deputy DA, 23 year Family Law attorney and more. I asked questions and heard all of this, but did not completely understand what it meant until I saw it in action. Superior education and work ethic does make a difference. I couldn't believe how hard he worked, and he did all of the work before being worried about charging me more money and then cut the outstanding balance to only $1,000.00 on a good dad discount for me. He didn't always take my calls right away like I would like, but did always return them by the next day and usually sooner. So, I don't give 5 stars for responsiveness and answering the telephone, but understand he's only 1 man. I have to give full stars on everything else. I'm very happy, but also understand that winning my case had as much to do with me doing the hard work to be the best dad I could be and attorney Calhoon only put the "finishing touches" on my work in court. I'm going to keep working hard for my daughter. I appreciate the lawyer caring and working very hard too.
