Nothing But Professional

I was referred to Amy by a mutual friend. My divorce was hairy at times with a DVRO and an uncooporative other party but Amy helped me through every step of the way. With my DVRO lasting 6 days and my nerves on edge she was nothing but professional and kind. After 2 years I was finally able to get my... case settled and start my life and one of the main people I have to thank are Amy and her incredible staff.

I used Amy York Garrett as my divorce lawyer. I appreciated her honesty, straight forwardness spiritual advise she gave me. Amy was concerned for not just the case but the personal side of the client/lawyer relationship. I would recommend Ms. Garrett to anyone.

Worth it!

Amy is a wonderful person and a great attorney. She is quick, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable. She shows genuine concern in cases involving children. I hired her to handle my divorce case which, up until she took charge was a 4 year struggle. She got things straightened out and finalized in ju...st a few months.

Wow! Thank you Amy! your advice saved the day and my future!!

HIRE AMY, SHE IS GREAT!! Amy is not my attorney in the bitter divorce case I am going through, but I had consulted her less a week before the trail in San Bernardino Court, and she made one suggestion (which even my own attorney did not make) which was PIVOTAL in the judge's decision making. Th...e contention was about Date-of-Seperation. Had Amy not made the suggestion that I look for the email that I sent to my ex about divorce and seperation, and take the print-out with me to the trail, I would have been stuck with a long term marriage. Instead, Thanks to Amy, the judge (after about 6 hours of trial) went by the date on the email print out and decided that it is NOT a long term marriage. Thank you Amy. I will always remember you May you be prosperous and succesful.

Simply the best !

Amy Garrett was a true professional, taking the time to accept calls to answer my questions and if she was unavailable she always returned my calls. Amy helped guide me through a very difficult time with my divorce and I would recommend her to anyone interested in a hiring a lawyer.
