"I used Dan Beeks as my attorney for my complicated child custody case and he was phenomenal!! His attention to detail and attentiveness was outstanding!! I was scared and lost and he was amazing!! He filed my documents for court in a timely manner, he made sure to follow up after every minute entry or court case and always was upfront and honest!! When it comes to your children you only want the best and this man is AMAZING!!!"

"I had the upmost pleasure of being represented by Annabelle and her team member Ty. Words do not describe how they managed to flip an awful temp order I received early on towards my son. I had dropped my first incompetent lawyer and found Annabelle through a referral. As a father seeking rights to a child and beyond stressed out with the situation , Annabelle and Ty completely turned the tables on my case and got me exactly what I needed and felt was 100% fair. The whole process they dealt with my constant questions and emails as well as assuring me they would fight for me. That’s exactly what they did. Annabelle came in with complete professionalism and hit all angles to represent her client as if you were her only client. After this cases final orders closed , I couldn’t be more thankful and I pray for anyone who goes against this firm and Annabelle, for they are relentless.If you are a father or just having issues in a separation…This is your woman and team! Beyond impressed with the knowledge and work they put in. From Ronin and I , thank you!!!!"
