She's so good--she's full
We had a consult with Tonilynn 2 years ago and absolutely LOVED her..We laughed, had things in common, and she understood our situation and was ready to help. THEN COVID CAME. Courts were at a stand-still and we didn't retain her, thinking we could just pick up now. I called today and was told that Tonilynn wasn't taking any new clients. :( I guess that is what I get for waiting too long. I missed getting the best attorney for us.

Complicated Divorce Specialist
Tonilynn got me through a very messy and complicated divorce after 30 years of marriage and numerous business assets. She was conventional, knows the law, and very meticulous with listening to the details of my case. She guided me through the hardest part of my life, and I am very grateful to her, and her staff. She is hands on, using a no nonsense approach that is so refreshing, even in the hardest of times. She has a knack for hearing your issues and applying the law to resolve and work you through your case. I would HIGHLY recommend Tonilynn for your situation at hand. She is top notch, for complicated Divorce, or Separation. I can't say enough good things, she was brilliant.

I feel well represented.
It is a pleasure working with Toni and her staff. Kudos go out to the Senior Paralegal, Dulce.
Dulce is a good communicator and very responsive. It is not uncommon to get a reply within minutes of emailing Dulce a question.

I truly appreciate all they have done for me through all this.

Right by my side through a very difficult and stressful time.
Mrs Savage took my case when other lawyers had let me down. From our very first meeting she listened and provided in depth information regarding my specific case. Mrs Savage is extremely knowledgeable and immediately put me at ease, her staff were helpful, kind and compassionate and while going through a stressful and difficult divorce having that level of trust made this transition much easier. Mrs Savage also attended my mediation and I was greatful to have her by my side. She was able to help and guide me through that process and I am extremely happy with the final outcome.

Top Notch Lawyer
There are not enough words to express the gratitude I have for Tonilynn and her team at Savage Law. From the moment you walk in the doors, you are greeted with kindness and a genuine care for your needs. Tonilynn’s level of professionalism, intelligence and compassion are unmatched. She is hardworking and will always be in your corner 100%. I have always felt comfortable in expressing any concerns or questions I may have had. In court, she is a smooth fighter, she’s calm but knocks it out of the park. I would highly recommend her and her team to anyone needing legal assistance!

Tonilynn and her team are competent and miraculous!
I have used Tonilynn Savage as my attorney in a contentious custody matter. I was immediately impressed with her and her team’s knowledge and competence, but also by the fact that they care about me and my children. I would recommend Tonilynn and her team to anyone. As apposed to some other lawyers, Tonilynn and her team don’t stoop to using cheap gimmicks and half-truths to win. They use the facts to win fairly, and this means everything to me. Hire her!

Saved the day
Tonilynn was called in to fix an issue that other attorneys had created. i needed two issues left over from a divorce resolved before they ended up costing me more money. Tonilynn and her paralegals in particular Dulce listened, understood, acted and in a very short time resolved my issue to the needed end. i will use Tonyilynn and her team again if i need an attorneys help, that is for certain.

Very Happy with their service
While it was unfortunate that i had to use a family law attorney I'm glad i found Tonllynn Savage. They are very knowledgeable, honest, and effective. Everybody from the Receptionist to the paralegals were excellent, they answered all my questions and made themselves available over the phone or email. This really made me feel like i had somebody had my back during this complicated process. I hope i never need her services again but i would highly recommend them for anybody in need of this type of attorney.

Protection order and parenting plan
So we were facing a protection order stopping me from seeing my son while trying to get a divorce and parenting plan going. We were able to get the protection order dropped and got a temporary plan in effect.

Best hire! Best decision!
If I were to go through a divorce again, Tonilynn would be my first hire! If I could pick/recommend a lawyer for my family, friends and colleagues, Tonilynn would be it! She is completely dedicated to her clients and is the most knowledgeable lawyer I’ve hired. I was so lucky to have her in my corner going through my divorce. Please note, I had an extremely complicated divorce case and she resolved it quickly and amicably.
