Annie Banford Hayes

She is a horrible ad-litem. Allowed the confidentiality between child and ad-litem be violated. Continually cancelled appointments. Should have excused herself and allowed someone else with availability to take over instead of making families wait months for her and have an abuse case drag on. Mad...e physical abuse sound like it was not overly bad, just happens. Did not do due diligence with both parties on allegations that were made. Contradicted self in conversation and own report. Overall ineffective.

I used Annie Hayes in my 2nd case. I was extremely upset when I spoke to her the first time. My ex had just served me with an emergency order that gave him custody of our baby. I went first to my old attorney but felt he was not understanding of my concerns. A friend mentioned Annie and I went to... see her. I immediately felt she could handle my case better. I was so right to hire her! She explained things in a calm way and made it easy for me to understand- even when I was upset. She told me what I needed to do and immediately went to work for me. It was a very stressful time for me but Annie and her office were always great. Annie did not give up or pressure me to settle. She was amazing in court and showed my ex's lies to the judge. I got my baby back and even some attorney fees. I am so thankful for all of Annie's help! If you need a divorce or custody attorney- go talk to her!
