Bev is tenacious, driven and detail oriented. No one wants to engage a lawyer but she is the one you want on your side!

I was caught off guard and needed to act fast to gather evidence to get a positive outcome in my case. Beverly was quick to get on board and get things moving when other attorneys weren't responding to my phone calls or couldn't get to me for several weeks. I had an unusual situation with the legal ownership of the marital home and without Beverly's assistance and consultation I'm sure I would have fared much worse in the property division. She always kept it professional when dealing with the opposing party's attorney or outside consultants and never fought just to fight with the opposing counsel. I would without hesitation recommend Beverly to someone going through the terrible situation I found myself in.

Bev handled my case when it looked very bleek for me. She advised me on steps to take and I ended up with an outcome in my favor.

Attorney Beverly Ballinger and her sharp legal assistant recently helped me through my divorce and it was a very complicated case after 42 years of marriage. I love to refer to them as "Team Wanda". Having no experience with divorce law, I had to be educated by them on the laws, rules and process. I greatly value the timely advice I received, the tough love talks I received as needed to keep me on track, and the other professionals that were recommended to me to gather evidence and go through personal as well as business documents and financial records. Divorce is stressful and depressing, especially where there has been much deceit, adultery and financial secrets. It is very important to find an attorney that you feel will fully represent your interests and fight for you every step of the way. It is only natural to feel down in the beginning of this process, especially with so many unknowns, but it can turn around and you can feel empowered by the knowledge you gain through the process when you have highly competent representation that is willing to help you dig for the facts and present them well every step of the way. Documentation is everything and well worth the effort. I am satisfied with the outcome of this case, especially the financial aspect. My experience with Beverly Ballinger and assistant Kaitlyn was top notch. I felt cared for and supported every step of the way. They are firm but gentle and patient when I needed it. My ex-husband cannot say the same thing about his experience. I do not wish divorce on anyone, but if needed, do not hesitate to call on Beverly Ballinger. I believe she can handle any case. Thanks again for all of your help. Best wishes to all.

Beverly is an absolutely outstanding attorney who navigated my family court case with professionalism and grace. She fought for me at every turn and I can't put in to words how grateful I am for everything she did for me both in and out of the court room during one of the hardest times in my life. If you want an attorney who knows the legal system like the back of her hand and will ALWAYS be in your corner, then she is hands down the best lawyer for the job. I seriously can't recommend Ms. Ballinger enough!

Bev is tenacious and direct. She seems to strive to get the most for her clients, at least she did in my case.

Ms. Ballinger was the consummate professional (with a personal touch). She had a demonstrated knowledge of the intricacies of Family Court, and I cannot state enough how pleased I was with how my divorce was handled, and the favorable results achieved. Her billing was always straightforward, and was detailed, so I knew I wasn't being taken advantage of. She was always reachable, and would answer my questions directly. I am a "get to the point" kind of guy, and Ms. Ballinger never wasted my time. I quickly learned that anything I was asked to produce was to facilitate a smoother court process. She knew what would fly, and what wouldn't. Many times her competent Legal Assistant could resolve issues I had. As an old retired Army Sergeant, I wish to offer anyone looking for a divorce lawyer the following advice: Our unit had an astronomically high divorce rate, and I personally witnessed at least 20 divorces. My observations from the good and bad outcomes were these: The most successful outcomes always seemed to hinge on these three factors: 1) A divorce lawyer who only practiced family law. The frequently changing divorce laws needs a specialist, not a "jack of all trades". 2) A lawyer who has practiced in your area for a long time. It can't be stated enough how important it is for your lawyer to know, and be known, by the courtroom personalities. Knowing what various judges will focus on pays dividends. That only comes with long term experience in a particular jurisdiction. 3) A Female Lawyer. (Especially for guys). They always got much better results than male lawyers did, representing both husbands and wives. I won't speculate on why that is. What I do get is that a female lawyer understands "her kind", and cannot get bamboozled by another femme. The above criteria is what I used to decide on a lawyer. Ms. Ballinger met and surpassed them, with results that exceeded my expectations. In my opinion, she is a five star (plus!) rated lawyer. If you are searching for a family court attorney, Ms. Ballinger should be it.

As Beverly Ballinger was highly recommended to me, I would also fully endorse her and her legal services after having worked with her. Her knowledge of the family court is impressive. She guided me through the divorce process and gave me sound advice at every turn. She gave thorough, concise explanations of the process and answered all of my questions honestly. She helped me prepare for all of the possible outcomes of negotiations and hearings. I liked her straight forward approach. Ms. Ballinger is a professional in every sense of the word. When she walks into the courtroom she is fully prepared and represents her client’s interests. She is polished and poised and she is definitely someone you want in your corner.

Choosing a lawyer for my situation was a daunting task. After researching my options, I finally decided to choose Beverly Ballinger. What an excellent choice it turned out to be! Beverly’s attention to detail, knowledge of family law and careful guidance never failed me throughout my case. Beverly’s ability to communicate and explain complicated legal issues helped to ease my mind. Whether in mediation or court, Beverly argued for me and utilized her impeccable professionalism to defend my best interests. Beverly’s work ethic was second to none, and she conscientiously fought for me every step of the way. She is a truly remarkable person and attorney. I am fortunate and thankful Beverly Ballinger was on my team!
