Alethea Shaddox is an excellent attorney

I highly recommend Alethea. I hired her for a problem with child support. I found her to be an excellent communicator who is not only very familiar with the law but also understands the reality of how legal matters play out in court. She was responsive to my emails and telephone calls. She clearl...y explained the options to me. She demonstrated that she cared about me by listening to me and responding to my concerns. She is smart, knowledgeable, experienced, caring and most of all a very good communicator.

I do not recommend Alethea Shaddox

I hired Alethea for my divorce and felt that she absolutely was not looking out for my best interest. I recently have spent over two months trying to get a yes or no answer to a single question, to no avail. I tried calling, emailing and texting… but she will not answer. I do NOT recommend Alethea S...haddox.

Alethea really cares about people and works for what's right

I wholeheartedly recommend Alethea to anyone navigating the complexities of family law matters. From the moment I first consulted with her three years ago, I was impressed by her compassion, professionalism, and dedication. Alethea truly cares about her clients' well-being. She prioritizes the bes...t interests of families and works tirelessly to achieve positive outcomes. Throughout my case, she consistently provided clear explanations, answered all my questions patiently, and made sure I felt informed and empowered every step of the way. What sets Alethea apart is her genuine understanding and empathy. She approaches each case with a focus on minimizing conflict and promoting amicable resolutions whenever possible. I always felt heard and supported, knowing that she had my family's best interests at heart. If you're seeking a skilled, compassionate, and experienced family law attorney, look no further than Alethea. She's an exceptional advocate and I'm incredibly grateful for her guidance and support during a challenging time in my life.

Alethea is the best!

I would highly recommend Alethea. She is very professional, extremely knowledgeable and personable. She makes you feel comfortable. She returns calls promptly and she always keeps me informed of what’s going on with my case. I am very confident in her ability as an attorney. She is poised under pre...ssure and relentlessly advocates for me. I would hire her any time I need legal assistance.

Excellent Lawyer!

I was very fortunate to have Alethea as my lawyer. She always acted in my best interest. She also was very knowledgeable, experienced, responsive, and dedicated to receiving the best outcome. It was also a pleasure working with Alethea. I would defiantly choose to work with her and Wright Family ...Law Group again.
