Michele Gentry Hinz

I applaud Michele Hinz wholeheartedly. Michele showed me that it is possible for a birth-father's heart to be changed. Her compassion, vision, and leadership qualities were instrumental toward having my son's birth father relinquish his rights. Her personal approach and stellar effort to communicate ...with the birth father, located in a remote prison, was commendable. While advising me well and explaining every step of the way, Michele worked tirelessly and without complaint to take care of the inevitable, unexpected bumps. Her can-do, helpful attitude was exemplified during the process as well as months later when the Decree needed to be amended. Above and beyond, Michele's care for my family made this a most memorable and significant experience. Recently, Michele sent a thoughtful letter to my ten year old daughter and after reading it, my daughter said, "I'll always be grateful for her. She's extraordinary!"

This is the second adoption Michele has handled for me. I must say that she has not only helped to add to my family but has greatly improved the quality of our lives, Both my Husband and i can never thank her enough for all she has done. The adoption experiance can be long and somtimes complicated bu...t she was always there night or day to help us and answere any questions we may have. She was always encouraging and supportive and kept us continually informed of the progress in our case and would always explain the process or next step very clearly and enabled us to complete our adoption process in a very timely manner and without complications. It was a wonderful experience and we are blessed to have had Michele with us to share in the joining of our family. It is truly her calling in life to bring so many people the most important Gift that God could Give us. Our Children. She is Professional and truly cares for her clients. I highly recommend her to those of you who want not just a lawyer but some one who cares about your family.

Its scary when you need to find an attorney and you are new to an area. I found Michele online searching for an addoption attorney. I picked her because she was the closest to my home and Im so glad I did because she did an excellent job! The adoption moved very quickly and went smoothly. Her fees we...re very reasonable and affodable. She was very knowledgable and professional.

I wasn't sure how credible the reviews were when I found this site - I had never used it before. After spending the last 6 months as a client of Michele's, I can tell you that she is every bit as good as everyone says she is. Adoptions are tough - they are both emotionally and financially drainin...g. This was our first adoption, so we had no idea what we getting into. When we initiated contact with Michele, she offered to do our adoption for a flat fee or for the more typical hourly arrangement. I was slightly nervous about the flat fee, because I feared that there would be a lot of “extras” tacked on as things proceeded. Based on a very good introductory call and her good reviews on this site, I decided to go forward with the flat fee. It was a great decision – there were no extras and I received a level of attention that I never dreamed was possible. When we had problems at the hospital with a nurse that didn’t want to release the infant into our care, Michele was on the phone (and later at the hospital) immediately. All of this on a Sunday! She is extremely responsive and really understands the emotional stresses that adoption creates. It is clear that she does this because she loves to help people, not because it is “a job”. She was always prompt in returning calls and text messages, and clearly knew the law. She moved our case through the court system efficiently and effectively. We couldn’t have asked for a better or nicer lawyer.

This was our first adoption and Michele worked hard to make the process smooth and trouble free. She was easy to interact with and always available when we needed her. Michele added a very professional yet personel element to our adoption process making it a very pleasant experience for our family. M...ichele has also proved to be a wonderful post-adoption support by providing us assistance with issues which have arisen since the finalization. We really couldn't recommend Michele any higher. She truly has been a huge blessing to our growing family!
