“Dedicated and Professional”
Ms.Andrews represented My husband and I for a very emotional child custody case in early 2010. She was professional, prepared and most importantly fought for our side to be heard by all parties involved.- Previous Client
We are thankful for all the hard work that she put into our case that lead to a positive ending for our case. We would recommend Ms. Andrews for any legal issues that you may have in family court. -
“Custody, Child Support, and Divorce case.”
I was very pleased with the free consultation that was provided to me by her. She really took the time to listen to all my concerns and provided me with some excellent feedback. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service she provided me with and look forward to having her fight my case. I recommend her services to everyone.- Previous Client -
“Divorce & Separation Advice Session”
I needed help with a legal document. Tiffany Andrews answered my questions, gave me advice about possible changes to protect myself and also provided possible consequences of putting in or leaving out certain items. What really impressed me is if I interrupted her at any time, she stopped talking to listen. She was really listening and making sure she understood what I was asking. I am super impressed with this service and her.- Previous Client -

“Guardianship”
Ms. Andrews,- Janet
Has guided and helped me thru a very difficult guardianship. I can't express how much I appreciated her expertise as my attorney. Thank you, Ms. Tiffany Andrews. -
“Amazing Experience!”
Tiffany helped me through a very difficult custody battle, and she was very helpful and informative. She answered all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable. Tiffany truly knows what she is talking about... I would highly recommend her to anyone trying to get through a difficult custody battle, or anything else!- Previous Client -
“Tiffany Gave Me a Voice!”
I hired Tiffany to help me in a custody dispute with my ex regarding my young son. During the entirety of my previous relationship and even after separation my ex had intimidated me and dominated any decision made regarding my son. He bullied me and used his financial advantage to make me feel that I didn't stand a chance against him when he filed to take majority custody of our son. I went into the custody dispute feeling weak but as a mother, I would go to any length, at any cost to fight for my son. Tiffany and her staff gave me so much confidence and ensured me that they would be my voice and help me fight for my rights as a mother and that is exactly what she did. Tiffany was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and honest. She did her job and she did it well. Tiffany was very aggressive while staying very professional in front of the judge. I walked out of the courtroom feeling empowered and protected. My family cannot ever thank her and her staff enough. I would recommend her to anyone that finds themselves in a family dispute. She will give you the justice you and your family deserve.- Cheyenne
