Posted by Tammy | December 15, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

TJM + MW x (MY) = winner winner chicken dinner

First thing's first: divorce sucks. Paying to get divorced or continuing to be divorced "fairly" sucks. Trying to find the right lawyer to get the job done sucks. But the fact is: no matter where you go or who you go to, you're going to pay (unless you want to gamble doing it on your own) & at the... end of it all no one should be happy because of the sheer suckiness of it all. With all that said, I was lucky enough to stumble upon Divorce Angels via Meetup back in May 2020 and hit the jack pot when Tammy Mercado agreed to take a chance on my case knowing how much of a hot mess it was right from the start. She even had the foresight to warn me that this fight was going to drain me financially and a year & a half later, I bow down to her infinite attorney expertise, empathy towards my situation, passion to get me what I deserve in this mess and without any hesitation can easily say over & over again that I would NOT trust anyone with my family legal issues other than TJM, Mary Whipple & Melissa Yago (their paralegal extraordinaire). I won't bore you with all the details of my drama, but let me tell you we've been through hell & back on multiple occasions and I'm sad to say that this will most likely continue for a few more years thanks to my ex's antics. Regardless, Tammy & Melissa have been there for me every step of the way through the thick of it with Mary joining in on the court hearings & sharing her knowledge when necessary. I'm not going to lie, there were many times when I wanted to just give in, but Tammy would fight ME to get me what she thought I deserved, so I've learned to kick back & let her be great at what she does. So at the end of it all, shell out the money to get things done right & leave it to the professionals, but it's critical to find the right one(s) for you. Fortunately for me, Whipple, Mercado & Associates is the peanut butter to my jelly, the ying to my yang, that team who will kick @$$ & take names and I am forever grateful for their services & commitment to my struggles through this sucky process. Thank you ladies!!

This is someone you want on your side!

I hired Tammy to represent me in what turned out to be an extremely difficult divorce. Throughout the time Tammy helped me with it, Tammy was always thorough, thoughtful and kept everything on track, and moving forward as quickly as possible. She truly does care about her clients and works hard to ge...t the best result for them. I could not have asked for a better lawyer to represent me.
