See What Our Clients Have To Say About Our Family Law and Mediation Services

I got lucky with a referral from a friend that re-directed me to Paula Goforth. My case was probably not that complicated, but became so with the obvious reason for requiring the services. The Goforth team held account to the letter of the law and it favored me, their team supported me and did it all rather expeditiously. So grateful for the initial meeting and everything in between down to the last invoice.
