Fantastic service! Abby and her office were outstanding to work with, and I highly recommend her office. I’m very happy I chose Family and Children’s Law Center to represent me. Thanks again Abby!

Even before the pandemic the phones were rarely answered and voicemails were not returned in a timely fashion. Front office staff seems to be MIA. The new intake process is extremely difficult to navigate and very confusing considering past clients have to do a new intake if they have not been seen in the past 90 days. They will literally ask you your name address and phone number and date of birth as if they don’t already have all of this information. My divorce took three years to finalize. despite being out of work with no income I was not given any sliding scale discount. I felt my family case was not treated as a priority and my ex spouse was given far too much leniency when it came to deadlines and turning in paperwork. Issues were left unresolved and I am left very dissatisfied with the services I received. I would not recommend them to anyone if you’re matter is urgent. The old saying you get what you pay for is evident here.

Abby was a fantastic attorney to work with, family law is usually unpleasant, but Abby made it easy to understand and get through. She helped me re-gain most of the custody for my twins; I was nervous to go back to court for this, but she gave me confidence, and we were able to get almost everything we requested. For any family law-related needs, Abby is definitely someone you want to represent you!
The sliding scale fee structure also made it possible for me to have representation. Most of the attorneys I contacted required a large retainer which I could not afford, and I had no idea how to go about changing my custody order, so I thought I had to live with it and save money to hire an attorney. I wish I found Children and Family Law Center sooner.
