The Best Attorney Who REALLY Cares

After going through terrible attorneys who didn’t really care about what my children and I were going through, I prayed and found April and her wonderful team. Sherry, Mindy and even Eric all came to our rescue. They listened with complete compassion and went through what I felt like were a gazillion... documents. She fights the good fight for the safety and wellbeing of children and women. Talk about above and beyond, late in the midnight hours to early morning sunrise she fights the good fight of justice. Words cannot express what she has done and is still doing for us. Having her own family and still managing to fight for her clients. Her commitment is remarkable. I am so grateful to God for sending her into our lives. I HIGHLY recommend her and her entire team.

April Thomas and her firm are pure gold!

✨This firm is INCREDIBLE. April and Sherry, along with Mindy and Eric, SAVED me and my child. It took four torturous years, and countless hearings, and two trials. But this team is in it for the long haul. And beautifully look at things from a big picture perspective, while fighting in the trenches w...ith you! I have never cried, raged and unexpectedly laughed uproariously during the darkest of times more with anyone, in my 43 years on this planet. This team is pure gold. They bolster your Spirit, and have your back to the fullest. I now have primary custody of my child, and opposing party is restrained from our Lives with two very rigorous protection orders. One protection order lasts for five years, and the other protection order lasts for the maximum time issued by the court: 99 years. In my case, my child and I are protected until the year 2,124. Seeing that a couple of people have left what look like very premature, negative reviews - shows me that some people value superficial details like a typo, over having real Life Warriors fighting by your side. This team is prepared and ready for every battle, and strategize to win the long term war. I will choose April Thomas and her team who are trial tested and ready, over a shiny “professional” attorney who is scared to go to court and would rather settle their cases out of court. Bravo ‘Team April’!!! Keep Fighting The Good Fight!!!✨

Heaven Sent Team

April gave me a free consultation when my (now) ex-husband withheld my children in another country. April and her paralegal, Sherry fought tooth and nail to ensure that my story was told in the court. They were always available to hear me vent and remind me that although the law is not perfect, the s...mall wins would ultimately turn into the big wins. They explained every step… through trial in detail, and even relocating to a different state. It has been a little over a year since my divorce from my abuser and I love it here. I wouldn’t have gotten where I am at today if it was not for April and her team.

Worst attorney save your mi eh

Both she and her paralegal Sherry are an unorganized chaotic mess. The paralegal is rude, unprofessional and it’s hard to believe she’s made it this far for so long. There are nothing but excuses as to why April can’t do things because she has “8-9 children” excuses, typos on emails, forgotten inform...ation, absolutely should be reported. She’s not doing her job. Should have trusted the google reviews that outlined similar experiences. Do better. Don’t waste your money here this “attorney” is distracted by her personal life.

Unprofessional with Horrible communication

Was recommended to this office but April and her team were so unprofessional. They kept scheduling me for a consultation then REPEATEDLY missed calling me. Terrible communication.

"I have a lot of respect for April after working on a very complex family law case on the opposite side. She was a strong advocate for her client but also reasonable and collaborative in negotiating. Few family attorneys are like that. I highly recommend her."

"April is an amazing attorney and an even better human being. She deals regularly with both abusive opposing parties and abusive opposing counsel with poise, grace, and strength. And she deals with other professionals with warmth and a cooperative spirit. She takes the long view for families, understanding that often they will be co-parents long after they are opposing parties."
