Family Law Hearing Preparation
I have been working with Family Law Attorney, Tali Collins, for 2 years, and she is by far the best attorney that I have worked with for ongoing family law litigation. She is very approachable, knows her legal material, is detail- orientated, has an amazing memory, knows lots of helpful resources and her fees are very reasonable. I have worked with many attorneys who have similar skills, but want you to hire them and are not great with working with the client that wants to self represent. Because I don’t have the financial resources for a retainer, Ms. Collins has worked with me in preparing legal documents, preparing for hearings, and organizing and finding exhibits. She knows what individual judges want, so I feel like I am ahead of the game and know what to expect and how to prepare when I go to the hearing. Recently, Tali Collins helped me prepare for my latest Parenting Time Modification Hearing and I feel more prepared than I did when I hired an attorney to represent me at the last one, and it saved me thousands of dollars. Ms. Collins knows all aspects of family law and I don’t think I could have worked with anyone who could prepare me as much as she has. I am so grateful that I found Ms. Collins, she has been an immense resource for me and has been so “spot on” with helping me in past hearings and litigation. This has been a great fit for me, and I even look forward to meeting with her. Ms. Collins is so motivating, knowledgeable and understanding, that when I walk away from meetings with her, I feel supported, empowered, recharged and ready to tackle my legal battles. Family law litigation is emotional, scary and overwhelming, but having a great family law attorney makes it so much more manageable.

Divorce With Children“We hired this law firm to represent our son in trying to get joint custody. They did a fabulous job keeping us informed as to their plan each week.
