DO NOT HIRE IF YOUR A FATHER.......... "RUN"

I hired Ms. Thomas back in 2016 to handle my divorce. Around $10,000 later and all court proceedings, paperwork and my case crap. Ms.Thomas seemed timid in court or afraid of the other attorney. Her way of handling my case was settle, settle, settle!!! "this is a good deal!!" never standing up for M...E, or understanding MY situation, she must have been scorned by someone before because of what I read on other reviews. If your a father and you care about you kids, your money or coming out of a divorce with dignity then THIS IS NOT THE LAWYER FOR YOU!!! I tried and tired to explain my situation to her and it was like it went into one ear and out the other, as long as the payments kept rolling in that's all that seemed to matter with her. my ex cheated for 3 years, has a decent paying job and because I left to start the 1 year separation needed to get a divorce ( which is a ridiculous law) I was dragged through the coals!! lost the house, my truck, my kids, she got alimony and child support and all I got was my car, my bedroom furniture and my garage stuff. I explained over and over how unfair this was and she looked at me and coldly said " you should've never left" no compassion for fathers rights!! so run!!! run away quickly from this attorney as fast as you can if you want to have a life after divorce.

Don’t come here if a father !!

I went for a consultation with Mrs Thomas pending a divorce and child support. My ex cheated and was demanding 2/3 of my paycheck. I pay all bills, insurance, car, plus additional 1500$ with out a court order on good faith. When I was subpoenaed for child care, child support, responsibility of all bi...lls, and alimony totaling more than 2/3 of my income her only question was “why shouldn’t you pay for everything “ She has absolutely no compassion for fathers or military service members. I saw 3 other lawyers after this with much better results. I hired one and ultimately needed up paying over 1300$ less than what Mrs Thomas said I would be paying. Thank god I only spent a consultation fee and not exhorbant amounts of money that she has taken from others will poor outcomes.

The best

Ms. Thomas represented me in my recent divorce. I can't begin to explain how much she helped me. I got the best possible outcome it was possible to get in my circumstances. She and her staff are incredibly caring and professional. I am so grateful for Ms. Thomas and her whole office for their help du...ring a stressful time.

Divorce and Child Custody Cases

I hired Attorney Samantha Thomas to handle my divorce and child custody case. I was very pleased with the great service that I received and how professional the staff was. I would highly recommend The services of Thomas Law Firm to complete your legal needs.Not only were the outcome of my cases favo...rable through litigation, but Attorney Thomas worked hard to round out the rough edges of my case. If you want proven, hard working results with your legal issues , I would consider giving her a call.
