So appreciative

Melody gave me the strength to stand up for what I needed to do, and needed to do for so long. I had complications with a previous MSA, and continued to have difficulties with my ex husband due to the lack of language in our MSA. I hired Melody, and ended up having to take the case to court. She work...ed her magic, and was able to settle the issues outside of the court room, saving me in additional fees. I was able to get the end result I needed for my child and I financially, and feel I have great ground to stand on moving forward. Hiring her was the best decision I could have made! The only issue I had was lack of communication with her office. I felt I had to do more follow up than I anticipated to know where my case stood. I do not feel that was an issue on her end though.

Disappointed

Melody displays a very tough approach & seemed to represent me well in the beginning of my child custody matter but eventually appeared more worried about her fee's than looking out for her clients best interest. In fact, she rushed me through signing a child custody agreement that was more than detr...imental with mistakes that should have easily been avoided. She makes a good sale but buyer beware, she requires close attention & due diligence on the part of her clients.

Best lawyer with honesty and integrity!

Melody took on my case and did everything possible to keep me focused and knowledgable about the laws and how they applied to my case. She fought with dignity and intelligence and helped me to end a very difficult divorce. I would highly recommend her expertise and compassion. Without her Help I ...feel like I never would have moved on to enjoy the rest of my life

Extremely knowledgeable, honest, personable, with a keen interest in how she can address your particular issues. You do not feel left out of the formula. We have benifited from her services on more than one occasion. Six stars!!

Highly recommend!

Melody represented me in my divorce. Melody reviewed my case, kept me informed and was available to answer any questions I had and reassure me when I needed reassuring. I was satisfied with the outcome of my case. Melody was compassionate, kind and listened to me. In court she is very impressive, fou...ght for me and gave me back a part of me that was lost during my divorce. Melody understood how difficult and scary this process was for me. She is truly amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again and recommend her.
