Great outcome

I hired Samantha Thomas about three years ago and she was very dedicated to my case. I received everything I asked from my ex-husband to include child support and custody. I will recommend her services to my friends.

Child Support

I hired TLF around June for a child support case. All communication lines by phone and email all cost. The only thing free is regarding your bill. I assume with this law firm, if you are not talking about money then you are not talking about nothing. No update about your case unless via email. You wo...uld assume due to her been busy this is why communication is so lacking. Even if you talk to the paralegals about understanding your case/questions they would recommend to talk to her, but she barely available to address the issues and will charge you. Money over understanding and communication at this law firm!!!!

Justice Prevails, Thanks to Samantha Thomas and Team

I was 100% successful in my child custody case, and was granted everything I requested, thanks to Samantha Thomas, and her team. I had actually consulted with other attorneys, before choosing Samantha, and am more than happy with my decision. First and foremost, Samantha and her team, are extrememl...y tech-savvy. They utilize an internet portal for communications, billing, calendar events, reminders - everything electronic. This is a huge plus for me, as I do not have time for faxing, mailing, and telephone calls. This has served especially helpful as I work full-time, and recently have moved out-of-state. Teleconference calls are set-up without a hitch, and Samantha is always on time. In addition, they are super responsive to anything and everything sent to them via electronic communications. I would like to point out that Samantha's front desk support, Robin, was most helpful. She was very patient with form filling, notarizing, and was always more than happy to lend a helping hand and ensuring communications that I had for Samantha were routed to her effectively and efficiently. Another reason I selected Samantha, was due to her very candid nature. I believe when dealing with sensitive court proceedings, such as child support, you need to be told exactly how it is. Samantha is very upfront with her questions, and telling you her professional opinion on different matters. Samantha is also very supportive, and I did not get the sense she was trying to rob my savings - she is fair, everything they bill for is just and clarified and always open for your review at anytime via their internet portal. It is evident, whilst in court, that Samantha is well known in the legal community. Her knowledge on the judges, the court house, other attorneys, and everything in-between is evidenced in court. If you want to win your child support case, I highly recommend Samantha and her team to represent you.

Relief of Burdensome Child Support; Justice and Case Won thru Diligent Legal Effort of this Legal firm.

Attorney Samantha Thomas and Firm ensured that I stayed free from the stress of burdensome and costly legal battles concerning payment of extravagant child support demanded by ex-spouse who has always received CS per Separation Order that became part of Divorce. I really appreciate the freedom from ...undue stress and monetary demands/charges that I experienced entrusting my case for justice to be served regarding issues that I felt and thought could be handled outside of court. I recommend Attorney Samantha Thomas to anybody facing the North Carolina child support system in court. Although I didn't ask for the courts to get involved, it was helpful and necessary to have an advocate, in this case, Attorney Thomas who knew what to present and how best to handle the legal issues that presented themselves in my child support case.

Well prepared, effective attorney

Ms. Thomas did a phenomenal job with our custody and child support case. I am a father of a little boy who she helped me win custody of. She took my case very seriously and spent lots of time on it. She was always better prepared than the other attorneys, effectively communicated my case to the Ju...dge and never hesitated to give me honest and clear legal advice. I would not hesitate to use her again. There is no question she is a great attorney. Her staff is very knowledgable, too. I very, very highly recommend her!
