Family Law

Erin O-Toole-McNally worked efficiently and effectively in my case. She was available to answer any questions and concerns that I had regarding my case. Mrs. O-Toole-McNally would also return my phone calls regarding my case within 12 hours or less. When researching local Attorney's you will find tha...t they generally fo not have one initial flat fee, and that they will tack on additional fees. Erin was straight forward and there were never additional fees. Erin O-Toole-McNally's knowledge of Family Law is superior and she helped me win my case. I would highly recommend Erin O-Tooles-McNally's services!

child custody

I was contacted by Erin when I was personally searching for an attorney. She was a blessing. Erin put everything into perspective for me clearly and helped me to better understand what to expect during our trial. She is currently my attorney and I would recommend her to anyone at anytime and have ...actually done so several times. This has been very rough on myself and my family and Erin has been there at a moments notice to handle every and all situations that have arisen. I am grateful to have had her to represent us.

Amazing Attorney

I hired Erin in a family law case and she has been a blessing from the get-together. Her knowledge of the law is immense and I have never felt as if she has not done all she could to protect myself and my family. I trust her implicitly and appreciate that there are lawyers out there like her. My cas...e is one that has lasted a few years and she has always been organized with the volumes of files and very familiar with what is happening in my case.
