Afton Hayes

Afton represented me throughout my divorce, including several difficult negotiations. She was consistently responsive to my many detailed questions while remaining efficient in drafting all necessary communications and documentation. She actively stayed on top of deadlines and timelines, and her a...bility to be both kind and direct in her communications helped me feel confident and well-informed throughout the process. Afton did an excellent job balancing listening to my goals with providing thoughtful options and guidance so I could make informed decisions at each stage. I would highly recommend her and would be happy to work with her again.

After interviewing several divorce attorneys, I knew within the first hour-long consultation with Afton that she was the lawyer I wanted to work with. She is knowledgeable, calm, and thoughtful in her approach. From the very beginning, she focused on keeping matters amicable when possible rather than... escalating conflict, which I truly appreciated. Afton’s communication is excellent, she responds to emails promptly, clearly explains next steps, and always lets you know if she will be out of the office or in court. She is detail-oriented, attentive, and consistently followed up to ensure all of my questions were answered. The paperwork she drafted was thorough and accurate, and she always made sure I reviewed everything before it was finalized. I worked directly with Afton rather than a paralegal, which made a noticeable difference. In contrast, delays in my case were caused by errors from the opposing firm’s paralegal and lawyer, and Afton even had to guide them on submitting documents correctly. Throughout the process, she remained objective, professional, and focused on my best interests while handling the divorce with dignity. If you are looking for an experienced, detail-oriented divorce attorney with excellent communication skills who truly advocates for her clients, I highly recommend Afton. I have already referred her to several friends.
