Attorney Courtney Smith and her staff were amazing, very professional and friendly. Courtney was like a shark in court and is definitely the person you want on your team. I highly recommend them and would absolutely put my trust in them.

We retained Courtney for a family support issue that has been ongoing for a number of years. She is very professional and was able to help us with our case. Her staff is very organized and pleasant, particularly Megan. I would recommend her office for any legal matter involving family law.

I have been looking for a family law attorney some time now. I was referred to attorney Courtney Smith. I contacted there office and spoke to the secretary whom was very polite. I had my consultation today with attorney Smith and let me just say I am more then satisfied with what she had to say. I need someone that will fight for me and my children and today I found just that. Attorney Smith has fire behind her, I can't wait to see her in action in the courtroom. I would recommend attorney Smith to anybody that is in search of a resilient lawyer. Attorney Smith cares about her clients and it feels like a family-type atmosphere with her. If I could give her 10 Stars I would. Stop wasting time call the Smith Law Group in Chesterton Indiana if you want a lawyer that will stand up for you and fight for your rights.

I hired Courtney to handle my divorce. During all the proceedings she was a constant professional, who helped me every step of the way. I genuinely felt like she cared more about what was good for me than her bottom line. If you are looking for someone who cares about her clients, then this is the person you should hire. I will say that once it was all said and done I walked away with a friend! Thank You!
