Tammy · criminal defense ·
My son was involved in a complex felony case along with 3 other young men (all 4 young men had their own lawyers) with huge consequences if found guilty. Mr. Aslamy listened to my son, believed he was innocent and took charge from there. Even though Mr. Aslamy was appointed by the court and we paid h im nothing. He took ownership in the courtroom and worked hard and stayed focused. Once while we were in the courtroom even the judge looked at me and my son and told us You have an excellent lawyer. We already new that! Needless to say my son's case was dismissed. The other 3 young men involved are still going through court hearings. Mr. Aslamy was our God Send and I am eternally grateful and wish him much happiness and success. Thank You Again!!!...
- ★★★★★Disappointing
anonymous · litigation ·
Mr. Aslamy was unprepared, unavailable, uninterested, and all around disappointing. Promised the world in the beginning and once he was paid, he changed everything he said he would "fight" for. Has his paralegal do most of his work. Have never heard of leaving a court case WORSE off than you were b efore hiring a lawyer and this was the case with hiring Mr. Aslamy- pay the extra money for a more competent attorney- I wish I did.
- ★★★★★DISAPPOINTED
anonymous · criminal defense ·
MR. ASLAMY REPRESENTED MY HUSBAND FOR CRIMINAL CASE. HE NEVER RETURNED PHONE CALLS, WHEN YOU HAVE A QUESTION HE WOULD GO ALL AROUND THE QUESTION AND TELL YOU WHAT HE THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO HEAR TO RUSH YOU OFF THE PHONE. DOES NOT DO ANYTHING YOU ASK OF HIM. HE MISREPRESENTED MY HUSBAND. THEY WENT TO T RAIL AND AS AN ATTORNEY HE NEVER SUGGESTED TO MY HUSBAND WHAT HE SHOULD DO. IF HE WOULD HAVE MAYBE HE WOULD NOT BE IN THE SITUATION HE'S IN NOW. HE'S NOT INFORMANT, NEVER PREPARED AND WASN'T INTERESTED IN THE CASE. I BELIEVE THAT MR. ASLAMY, THE PROSECUTOR AND THE COMMISSIONER WHERE ALL WORKING TOGETHER TO RAILROAD HIM. SO IF YOU HAVE MR. ASLAMY AS AN ATTORNEY BE CAREFUL BECAUSE HE'S NOT WORKING WITH YOU.
- ★★★★★Straight to the point, Zubair is an excellent lawyer with incredible memory!

From my experience, in my complex case , Mr. Aslamy was the only one that told me straight up what my options were I'm very confident in Mr. Aslamy and his work. I'd recommend him to anybody.
- ★★★★★Spirit of Excellence
Vernon · family law ·
Filing for divorce can be very challenging and stressful. Looking for a good attorney that will work hard for you can be very difficult. Especially when you aren't expecting to file for divorce but it's something thats needed. You begin to look for an attorney that fits your budget instead of an att orney that fits your situation. Zubair and Shannon handled my case with excellence. They kept me informed the entire time. I was about to contact them whenever I needed help or had a crazy question. Now that my divorce is final, within 4 months, I can move forward with my life. I highly suggest that you use Zubair Aslamy to handle your case. He will handle your situation with care without hurting your budget. Quality service at a great price.
- ★★★★★Incompetence and poor customer service
anonymous · family law ·
My wife’s children were removed per an emergency order resulting from a baseless claim of child abuse. Despite us having video and audio evidence that contradicted the allegations, Kelly’s advice was to wait 6-8 months for DCS to investigate. She told us that we were not able to fight the allegations or the removal of custody of the kids. We sought several outside opinions and all were in agreement that our evidence was very strong and that *not* fighting the allegations would imply guilt on our part. Even worse: The day that the kids were taken away, I called and the office to beg them to contact my wife by phone that day as she was very distraught. Blake Binion-Holliday told me (verbatim), “We are not a crisis line. You are entitled to legal advice and you will receive that in writing by the end of the day.” I cannot believe the lack of empathy afforded to a client in the field of family law… In our opinion, Kelly’s office is fine for handling simple run-of-the-mill family cases. But if you have a complex case or one that goes before a judge, you need an attorney that exudes confidence and can get the judge’s attention and make your side of the case heard. Kelly proved utterly incapable of doing so - to the point that we wish we had hired the opposing attorney. Her lack of ability in front of a judge, her obvious inexperience in cases involving false allegations of abuse where DCS has become involved, and her unwillingness to admit that she was in over her head lead us to strongly recommend against representation from her office for all but the simplest of cases.
- ★★★★★Unsatisfactory
anonymous · family law ·
I hired Ms. Shaffer to file and complete an uncontested divorce. There was never a need for court time, just filing the appropriate paperwork. She did not do this correctly and that ended up extending the finalization by 6 months. I did not find her professional and felt she lack attention to deta il. I would not recommend her or her firm.
- ★★★★★Hired and Fired
lydia · family law ·
I hired Kelly for custody representation. I put $5,000 retainer which she blew through in several days and I also paid her hrly, which balance was paid in full, on time, by me. She used all my own work, forms, declarations, with nothing new to add to the table. I caught her "dealing" with opposing co unsel and didn't want to help me whatsoever. In my opinion, she is only in it for the money and how she can over bill clients. She was dishonest with me and when I questioned her on certain things, she got upset with me and closed herself off. I had to start representing myself, which I absolutely did a spectacular job. Now I have fantastic representation and couldn't be happier Kelly is behind me.
- ★★★★★Amazing

Kelly and her team are amazing! She helped me with a custody case. She answered all my questions in a timely manner and made sure I was prepared for court and she was very prepared
- ★★★★★Would not work with Attorney Kelly Shaffer again.
Keith · family law ·
I hired Shaffer and associates to handle my custody matter. After complete and total disappointment working with Krystal Limon, an associate at Ms. Shaffers firm. I tried multiple attempts to contact Ms. Shaffer to discuss my dissatisfaction and to see if I could work with a different attorney at th e firm or if she could have a talk with my current attorney to get things back on track. The only responses I was ever given were about billing disputes (which I did not have a problem with at the time) and that if I would like to talk to Ms. Shaffer that I would have to be billed at her hourly rate. She expressed no concern about my case, she expressed no concern about my lack of satisfaction with an attorney at her firm, she expressed no concerns about my satisfaction as a client, the only thing she would ever discuss was billing. Let me be clear, Attorney Kelley Shaffer, was let go before the outcome of my case. This review is not a poor review due to a poor outcome, this is a poor review because I did not feel that I was getting my moneys worth and that the quality of work delivered was substandard and inconsistent. Also, I would like to add that the customer service of the entire firm of Shaffer and Associates degraded instantaneously once the attorney client relationship ended. I would not work with any one at firm in in the future as the lead attorney refuses to meet about client satisfaction issues without charging her hourly rate.

David · family law ·
Amanda's legal services were outstanding. She was sensitive to support my needs during an uncontested international divorce. The divorce was more complicated as a result of the international challenges. She made the process easy to navigate & I feel that the outcome was positive & successful. Thank y ou Amanda for all of your help & efforts! Well done!
- ★★★★★My Case
John M · family law ·
I had the privilege of working with Amanda on a complex and emotionally challenging family case, and I cannot express enough how incredible she was throughout the entire process. From the very beginning, Amanda demonstrated an unparalleled dedication and commitment to reuniting my daughter and me. Ou r case involved bringing my daughter back to the USA from a foreign country, which was no small feat given the legal complexities and international jurisdictions involved. Amanda navigated these challenges with exceptional skill and tenacity. Her deep understanding of family law, combined with her strategic approach, was evident at every step. Amanda's communication skills were exemplary. She kept me informed and reassured throughout the process, explaining every detail in a way that was easy to understand. Her empathy and compassion provided much-needed support during this stressful time. In court, Amanda's presence was commanding. She fought tirelessly and with great conviction, presenting our case with clarity and persuasive power. Her preparation was meticulous, and her ability to anticipate and counter opposing arguments was impressive. Thanks to her relentless efforts, we achieved a positive outcome, and my daughter is now safely with me in the USA.I am immensely grateful to Amanda for her hard work, expertise, and unwavering support. If you are looking for a lawyer who will truly fight for you and your family, I highly recommend Amanda. She is not only a brilliant attorney but also a compassionate advocate.
- ★★★★★Mays & Zitron Family Law Firm Review
Rebecca ·
Words cannot express how grateful I am for the exceptional legal services provided by both Amanda and Jordan at Mays & Zitron. Prior to having a consultation with Jordan, I had the worst stroke of luck with legal representation and challenges of navigating the legal process, which at the time I k new nothing about. Amanda demonstrated an unparalleled level of expertise and professionalism in handling my very challenging case. Her attention to detail, extensive legal knowledge and strategic approach were evident from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, I felt confident and reassured by Amanda’s ability to navigate the complexities of my legal matter. What sets Mays & Zitron apart is not only their legal experience and accreditations, but also their unwavering dedication to their clients. They took the time to thoroughly understand my concerns and priorities, ensuring that every aspect of my case was addressed comprehensively. Communication was clear and timely, providing me with regular updates and addressing any questions I had along the way. To say Amanda works around the clock and made me feel like I was her only client is an understatement. Mays & Zitron displayed genuine empathy and a commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for their clients. This personalized approach created a level of trust that is often hard to find in a legal team. I wholeheartedly recommend Mays & Zitron. Their professionalism, dedication, and results-driven approach make them a top choice for legal representation. I am grateful for the positive experience and results provided during a very challenging time.

Heather · family law ·
Amanda was simply the best! She was extremely responsive to calls and emails and answered all of my questions. She made a very challenging time in my life easier by supporting me through the divorce process. Amanda was always on top of timeframes and reached out whenever we were able to move on to th e next step. I will always be grateful that I had her in my corner!
- ★★★★★Can’t Say Enough
Joshua · family law ·
During what was undoubtedly one of the most challenging times of my life, Amanda proved to be an invaluable support and God send. She navigated through my divorce proceedings with sensitivity and grace while guiding me every step of the way. Amanda was thorough in her approach, making sure I understo od all of my options for alimony, child custody, property, and everything in between. Her genuine care and empathy made a significant difference in my experience, as it was extremely positive. Amanda’s professionalism and timely communication helped alleviate my stress in this emotional process. I am so deeply grateful for her service and highly recommend her to anyone facing similar circumstances.

Alexis · family law ·
I highly recommend the services of Ms. Sullivan as a competant, ethical and results driven attorney. From our initial meeting throughout the legal proceeding; Ms. Sullivan represented my best interests under the guidleines of the law and that of which we deemed fair and reasonable considerations. H er knowledge of the law and judicial process allowed me, a novice in divorce activity, to make proper decisions for my family; as well as, how those decisions would impact my future. Going through a legal process of any type is extreamely stressful. As is the case of divorce; compounded by emotions which can cloud proper judgement. Selecting an experieced lawyer can make the difference on how those decision impact the rest of your life. My case is now closed; but in reflection, I know the decisions made were seldom simple, but always 100% correct. I have Ms. Sullivan to thank for these results.
- ★★★★★Caring and Wonderful Attorney

She's a wonderful attorney and she always listens to every single details. I am very grateful to have her as my attorney. She is very caring and knowledgeable. Thank you so much for how you have assisted me during my divorce case. I recommend my attorney Dianne to anyone for a family case.
- ★★★★★Amazing attorney
Carmen · family law ·
I retained Dianne Sullivan a year ago for my Filter Law case. Dianne was the second attorney that I had retained in my on going Family Law case. Dianne was so understanding and on top of everything, that I was able to release her soon after my hearing date. Since that time, she has been there for me with any further questions or concerns that I have about issues that have arisen after the fact. If you want or need a knowledgeable Family Law attorney, Dianne Sullivan is my first choice and will be from here on out.
- ★★★★★Wouldn't give a 1 Star but Required
Chris · litigation ·
Has a "Badass Rep", she will act like she is tough & there to fight for you. That is a very overcharged ACT. She will definitely charge you a ton, and do NOTHING for the money. "Trial Fee", does not mean Trial either, and if you did do a trial & the doc then you would be in for 10,000 of thousands more for her to do little to nothing. If you want to pay an attorney to work hard for the other team, this is definitely your person. If you want to pay out the rear to ensure that you get treated like dirt, no communication, & even less empathy in a terrible situation, this is your person. If you want a manipulative human that only wants to demand what she believes, & not listen to what you want or what you desire & not stand up for you in anyway, this is your person. She is not at all timely with her responses, they can go for days or weeks without answer. She will not show for meetings that have been scheduled, and not give a reason. You will not be addressed until approximately 3 days before any of your trials or hearings, & then at that time you will be overwhelmed & rushed to get the information that is needed. Heaven help you if you don't have the additional funds, even if you have to sell your soul you better come up with the money, or else, her unqualified skills will become even less helpful to you. This lawyer ensured that walking through Hell was every bit of how it should be, the worst, and ensured you got absolutely nothing for your efforts in your family. Don't bother with the auto response, it would amount to anything anyway.
- ★★★★★Knowledgeable and Trustworthy
Olga · family law ·
I hired Dianne as my divorce attorney. First of all, she is one of the very few attorneys who answers her phone and calls you back right away, I mean 6AM kind of right away:). She is very experienced, confident attorney with a lot of knowledge. She advised me on some details and worked by my side to protect my interests. She cares about her clients and by hiring her, I got an attorney whom I actually could trust. The feeling that I am protected and nothing was going to be missed made my stress levels lower and made me feel more confident during this stressful and emotional time. The case was settled; I have my house, my vehicle, and my kids - everything I asked for.
