“I highly recommend Tiffany Andrews for your family law needs!”
Tiffany L Andrews has represented me with professionalism and care. She thoroughly explained the legal processes to me and assisted me through the intricacies of my divorce. She also assisted and allowed me to participate in all of the decisions that were made in my case. She interacted with opposing counsel with professionalism and courtesy while maintaining a firm stance as to the interests of my case. I am very impressed with her abilities and the manner in which she conducted herself while handling my case. Her staff is also very competent and accommodating to my personal needs. I am very satisfied with results thus far, and I am confident that I have made the right decision when I hired Tiffany L Andrews as my attorney.- David -

“Tiffany Will Fight for You”
If you are looking for a law firm to represent you and your family/children in dependency court you need to hire the law firm of Tiffany L Andrews! Tiffany is a warrior in the courtroom. She fights for her clients like she would her own family. She's an expert in the child welfare law. Tiffany is a skilled professional and well respected in the "system". She is passionate about her work and maybe most important she uses her knowledge and skill in the courtroom.- Previous Client -
“Professional and Effective”
I retained Tiffany Andrews to accomplish my divorce and am pleased with the service provided. My ex-wife was very uncooperative at times and prolonged the divorce unnecessarily. Tiffany was able to move things along and eventually get her to complete her part of the necessary paperwork. Further, I am in the military and was deployed while the process was ongoing. Even though I was half a world away Tiffany and her staff were able to keep me abreast of the situation and worked with me to sign paperwork and keep things rolling. I would highly recommend Tiffany Andrews to those in need of legal services.- Previous Client -
“The BEST”
We have been her clients for about 7 years now. We first hired her when she was working with another law firm. We were so impressed and pleased with her that we followed her when she started her own law firm. She is very kind, understanding, and has always advised us in the right direction. She's helped us with multiple cases and is always on top of it. We definitely couldn't have done it without her help. We highly recommend her. She also has a great staff. They are always quick to respond and very helpful.- Enrik -
