Andrew Walker Newsom

I highly recommend Mr. Newsom. I couldn't be more confident in what I am doing without his voice of reason and consistent advice. He is skilled, forthright, professional and easy to communicate with. In a court room he is organized, respectful and to the point. He is a solid attorney who understands ...the realities of divorce and custodial procedures, not just while dealing with the court but also in guiding his clients towards a fair and realistic resolution. Having been a client with Gearing Richner and McGrath for several years (Mike McGrath successfully handled my divorce and recommended Andy for new issues) I have been very satisfied as a client and continue to receive sound advise. I wouldn't want to walk into any negotiation or courtroom without him. Linda Moore, his assistant is a valuable asset and support.

I can't say enough great things about Andy and his team. My case had many complicated facets involved including: Child Custody, Relocation (out of state), Substance Abuse, and Mental Health. Andy came up with a plan of action to help me move forward in my life without having to even enter the court...room. He listened to the facts and based on his knowledge and experience developed a plan to help me get divorced quickly (2 months from the point we sat down together), coached me on how to communicate with my ex effectively, and explained the best and worst case scenarios along with the risks and rewards of each course taken. His service to me was invaluable. I can't recommend Andy Newsom enough!

i highly recommend andy to be retained in any matrimonial matter. he handled my divorce proceedings with the uptmost of care and due diligence, including the settlement negotiations and appearances in court. we had full and complete discussions of strategy, process and procedure along the way, whic...h eliminated the high anxiety associated with the resolution issues. among the issues, he was especially sensitive toward the mitigation of the separation impact to the children and the due care that was needed. andy showed a great deal of client care along with his substantial legal conduct.

Andrew was referred to me through a friend, who I can’t thank enough for recommending him to me. I had a very unusual case and the circumstances were less than pleasant to work with. Everything I heard was that I would have to “settle” for 70/30 split and my ex would get full custody. Well, that was...n’t the case. Andrew worked extremely hard on my case, guiding me, coaching me on the steps, process and procedures of a child custody case. He was there for me anytime I needed him and I felt that I was his number one priority (even though he was working just as hard on other cases for other people as well). His attention to detail and knowledge of the laws are second to none. When all was done, Andrew got me what he said he would do and that was 50/50 with joint custody. I walked out of that court house knowing that I was protected and represented by the best attorney. Without a doubt, Andrew is a top notch, professional and extremely dedicated attorney.
