Fair, Honest and Successful Lawyer

Tracy was a pleasure to work with. Cases involving children are difficult and emotional; she remained professional and honest and didn't over promise results. She listened and asked the right questions and was successful in concluding with a fair outcome. Both Tracy and support staff were very respon...sive and communicated clear required actions and due dates. Tracy spend the time before each hearing to go over the information submitted to the court, and to prepare me for what to expect. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome.

MY HERO!

Tracy was a Godsend during my divorce that lasted a year and a half. The amount of stress that's involved in going through a divorce alone is so draining and mine, involved my daughter which was even more stressful. My ex was extremely unreasonable and would not cooperate with any decision which dela...yed the process even longer. Tracy remained professional and stuck it out with me the whole way through and we were finally able to finalize a judgement! I can't imagine doing it over again without her. She's truly a life saver!

Devoted & Knowledgeable

Tracy Willis took on our termination of parental rights and step parent adoption case. She was so knowledgeable, devoted, and did what ever she could to see that our case was resolved. Unfortunately our case had gone very south and the outcome wasn't what anyone expected, but Tracy didn't stop there.... She contacted multiple appellant attorneys and had a plan of action in just a few days. We ended up winning the appeal case and they granted our petition, but Tracy never lost contact through the process and was always invested. I can't thank her enough. She is truly an amazing attorney.

A successful lawyer

Tracy Willis helped me during a difficult divorce , I believe she did a great job because of her : 1) Analytical Skills: Tracy has excellent analytical skills and is able to readily make sense of a large volume of information. 2) Creativity: She can think of reasonable solutions when problems and u...nique situations arise. I believe that her creativity helped me earn more money. 3) Research Skills: Preparing a legal strategy generally requires an extensive amount of research. Many lawyers don't want to do the extra work. However Mrs. Willis have excellent research skills to be able to find and comprehend pertinent information. She found out things about my ex husband that I never knew. 4) Interpersonal Skills: We have had from the very first meeting a trusting relationships , I know that I can count on her. 5) Logical Thinking Ability: Her ability to think logically and make reasonable judgments and assumptions based on information presented, was an important part of the success I had in my divorce case. There are other great skills that Mrs. Willis have like her communication skills, her perseverance, and her aggressive behavior with the other lawyers. She is without a question the person you need next to you to win your case.

Strong and by the Book

I recommend Tracy Willis esq. for your divorce. Mine was not a slam dunk due to many new laws for gay marriage. Tracy learned them quickly and in many instances educated our judge at trial.
