Amazing, Caring Lawyer Who will be a Serious Advocate for you.

If you are looking for a lawyer that is compassionate, yet an aggressive advocate for you and your child/children, Connie Powell is it. I had a negative experience with a previous lawyer, which had shaken my faith in attorneys. Attorneys are in a powerful position to play a positive or negative ro...le in the creation of your future family life when it comes to divorce, custody and child neglect issues. It’s incredibly important to have someone who will be an advocate for you, yet remain honest about the tough stuff. Connie is that person. She is an assertive, determined, backer who will do your heavy lifting in the courtroom. Moreover, she is meticulous in her paperwork/evidence and can be trusted to have it done on time and correctly. This is exceedingly important, as I learned from the previous lawyer’s mistakes, it can make or break your case, as well as determine your family’s future. Connie is one of those rare Lawyers who actually cares about you and your children. You honestly cannot go wrong with her. I am in absolute gratitude for her dedication to my case and it's outcome.
