Lauren Hinzey proved herself to be the custody expert. She was very knowledgeable, informative and made herself readily available to answer any of my questions and address any of my concerns about my custody case. Ms. Hinzey was very confident from the beginning about a positive outcome and she delivered. My child custody case went very smooth and she was able get the result I was hoping for. I highly recommend her. She is the best.

Hired Attorney Heather W. Forshey

I would recommend Heather Williams for anyone going through a divorce. She was professional, precise and her fees were reasonable. There are so many attorneys out there to choose from, I am sincerely happy that I chose this firm. She made a difficult situation much easier to manage.

Hired Attorney Heather W. Forshey

I had a very acrimonious child custody case. Heather was the second attorney I had seen. She helped me navigate all the difficult issues. I would recommend her to anyone needing help with child custody.

I was very disappointed in Blake in his communications, expertise in handling difficult circumstances, taking sides with apposing council, threats to walk away from the case when I was simply asking for the facts. The literally last minute demands made on his clock when he knew in advance of what would be imminent but failed to inform me. He failed to subpoena documents I requested & needed for my case & after repeatedly requests by me put me in a position that weakened my case.He said he didn't want to appear "difficult" to the apposing party. Support staff was on point and expedited things appropriately & cuddos to them. Have a challenging divorce? Look elsewhere is my advice If your divorce is puppy dogs, rainbows & unicorns...consider him.

As someone who unfortunately has had to deal with 4-5 lawyers in the few years this was by far my absolute worst experience with any attorney/firm. Can’t recommend enough to get a different consult and get better advice, would never work with them again. The strategy here seems to be to take clients to court and to drag things out as long as possible to wrack up billable hours. From this from I paid over $10k for a divorce case that almost went to trial, until the firm was late on giving me needed disclosures to complete - when I changed attorneys almost instantly got the case out of court and saved a ton of money and got what I wanted. Attorneys here couldn’t seem to care less, they are arrogant and will give you bad information to keep your case going to trial. Total waste and huge regret wasting any time and money here.
