Posted by anonymous | June 26, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Child support / visitation

I hired Mrs. Mapes to help me with getting child support increase and visitation changed. I was referred by some one who had used her before. Mrs. Mapes was very helpful and attentive. She seemed to really care for what my children needed. She was very available and did an excellent job. She underst...ands the "legal" system. She was great ! I will use her again and refer others to her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
