perfect attorney for my family law case

I retained Lindsay to face and fight a relocation claim and she was very competent, responsive and "on the ball".She drafted and filed a very "high profile" petition to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction which, as an international law attorney myself, I could deeply appreciate for its juridical value. ...I definetely reccomend Lindsay as a family law attorney

A Dynamo

Lindsay Camandona is currently my lawyer for issues I am dealing with. She is an outstanding attorney who is extremely knowledgeable, effective and efficient, while remaining down-to-earth, warm and personable. She makes the overwhelming circumstances clients are bound to feel manageable, and provide...s clarity and realistic information which is often much-needed. I won't hesitate to recommend Lindsay to anyone in need of legal assistance, and once finished with my present issue, will continue to use her as my attorney for any future needs of my own.

Fantastic Outcome

When we told Lindsay what our situation was she was very honest with us about what to expect. What she didn't tell us is that she is one of the most knowledgeable, hard working attorney's I have had the opportunity to work with in the last 25 years. Thanks to Lindsay my family is back together for th...e holidays. I strongly recommend her when dealing with child custody issues. Thank You Lindsay!

Pleasant experience during a horrible situation

Lindsay Camandona was an excellent source of information during my divorce. When one lawyer estimated my case to be over 1 year long, Lindsay was able to close my case in a little over 3 months, saving me a lot of time and money and stress. During the process, I was very emotional, being a new mom to... two babies, but Lindsay was able to keep control of the situation and get me the best results. I appreciate the firm's hard work on mine and my children's behalf and I will be forever grateful. Thank you McKinley Irvin!

Knowledgeable , Trustworthy and Caring Attorney

Lindsay Camandona represented me through a divorce. Being a young mom and never expecting to go through this, I was extremely shocked and scared from the start. The people at McKinley Irvin were sensitive to my needs and firm in devising a plan that would benefit me and my 2 yr old son. Lindsay was k...ind yet professional and that gave me confidence in her abilities. I was most happy with Lindsay's alternate suggestions for the parenting and financial plans. Often times I was at a loss for what to do having never hired an attorney. Thank you Lindsay and McKinley Irvin!

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.
