Parenting Plan Revision and Custody Re-evaluation

Alex is professional, knowledgable and personal. Considering that divorced family dynamics can be a bit challenging at times, Alex was able to keep things in perspective in a constantly changing family dynamic and she often noticed things that I did not see being so wrapped up in the difficulty; beca...use of this, she was able to help guide the process along with efficiency, capability, knowledge and understanding. I like that she is serious when required and necessary, but also has a dry sense of humor that comes out when appropriate. She is always approachable and helpful. I would highly recommend her.

Review for Alexandra Nowlin

I had an excellent experience with Alexandra Nowlin. I chose her after interviewing two other lawyers. She was very calm, kind, and very analytical. She was also realistic about the details of my divorce case. As we worked together I always found her and her staff to be very quick and thorough in all... communications. She did a great job at guiding me to plan and prepare for my case. She was very attentive and thorough throughout the entire process. I felt extremely well prepared for my divorce mediation. She was also very emotionally supportive and truly knew me as a client when we entered mediation. I highly recommend her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
